So having never gotten the first 2015 Marty Hoverboard, can anyone tell me if it's just flat underneath or does it have a hole to plug in a flight stand like the last Silver Surfer's board?

I'm assuming flat, due to the age, but I'm hoping both of the boards in the new set will have flight stand capabilities

Anybody have a recipe for a Ben Reilly Scarlet Spidey? I'm thinking the Marvel Knights Daredevil is the right shade of red, but I'm not sure what to use for the hoodie or the mask. I prefer the slip-over masks, so I'm thinking just a Spider-Man mask repainted?

I did one using these parts (Though I'd rather use a different head, this is just what I could cheaply get)

Head - Ultimate Spidey

Body - TRU Daredevil

Gauntlets - Cap 2 Black Widow

Hoodie - Rocky

Belt - New X-Men Cyclops

Ankle Pouches - MAX Underwater Rescue Knife sheaths (Cut and painted)

Thanks Zach & Shane, I got mine also!

I think my comic shop charged $8.99 or so. I picked up the Apocalypse set since Luke didn't have singles of that pack and I didn't want the full wave (Hobby and FalCap sets are on their way from Luke's already)

are there any press pics or anything of TRU 20? My google skills are horrible today

We may revisit the Kraang, at least the blue one.

Make the blue one as abundant as Norman is and I'll be happy. I kinda wish I had bought more of the silver Kraang-Droid when they were out

Thanks Zach!

The reaction Aliens are the same way basically. Their domes click into place but they fall off easily too. However, I believe the SDCC Minimate is the first 1979 styled Alien to actually glow in the dark since the original one

I just reviewed wave 2 of the TMNT Minimates here: http://needlessessentialsonline.com/tmnt-minimates-series-2-review/

I really enjoyed all the extra pieces that came with the Turtles

Sweet setup!

What background is that?

Thanks! It's pieces from the Nickelodeon Sewer Playset.

Loving TMNT series 2

The jaw is a different piece. The Warrior Alien has a closed mouth jaw that's been glued a little more open than normal, while the Screaming Alien has the fully open jaw that usually has a tongue sticking out of it

I watched the first 3 episodes of izombie this past weekend, I liked it enough I'll watch more, but i haven't read the comic

Congrats MisterPL!

More than likely it's not exclusive and will be one of the Wave 1 specialty packs. I'm just making assumptions here, but that's the most likely case based on similar items I've gotten in Loot Crates

I didn't even ask to keep it, the rep said: "You can keep, donate or discard the wrong item."

The only thing I demanded was to also get my shipping refunded since I wouldn't have even ordered online if not for the Mutagen Donnie

I was a bit curt with the rep at the beginning due to the fact that I tried to cancel the order before it shipped and was told (by another rep) it was too late (they hadn't even made a shipping label a week since I had ordered) and that the item numbers were not incorrect as I stated.

I also had a chat with an agent this morning. I should be getting a refund and I was told I can do what I want with the Mikey set

What are the chances of getting a Stan Lee Minimate? I know you don’t pick up licenses just for Minimates so you could roll out a few different Stan Lee products like a vinyl bank and an updated 8″ classic retro style figure. It’s just that we have all these great Marvel Minimates and yet we don’t have the “face” of Marvel Comics to join them. I know I’d buy several so I could create all of his Marvel movie characters. Perhaps a convention exclusive 2-pack of Stan Lee and Spider-man or a box set of Stan Lee in some of his most memorable movie costumes (“Hugh Hefner” from Iron Man, the security guard from Winter Soldier, hot dog vendor from X-Men)? Thanks! Chris Polansky



DSTChuck: Chris, we did ask Marvel if our rights to the movies did include the characters that Stan Lee has played, and we were told we were not cleared to do product of him, so sorry, it’s a no-go for now.

Honestly, MOST of the SDCC exclusives at SDCC are labelled "insert company/store name here" exclusive premiering/available first at SDCC. I'm not sure there are too many actual SDCC exclusives

I'm... Mixed on these.

On the one hand I do quite like how a number of them have turned out and want to get the new 2099 (shame he lacks the cape and possible some kind of claw hands) and Miles. On the other hand, as a UK based collector I have a feeling these could be a pain to get. Granted I do have a US based friend who I've mentioned my interest in these to but I don't know how good his Walgreens is so if he has little to no luck then I'll potentially have to deal with scalpers :/.

You will probably have to rely on US members, but honestly, I've seen every one of the Walgreens exclusive Marvel legends and Walking Dead figures the past year or two so I don't think it'll much harder than TRU exclusives.

The only issue I potentially see is if Walgreens splits up the cases amongst many different stores, in which case, we'll all be trading with everyone to get full waves

Dusting off the ol' Atari

Now just make a new 70's Ghost Rider, or release a comic colored Legion of Monsters with an updated Blaze Ghost Rider box set

Man Thing Minimate!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought only Vasquez had the unique Alien, but now I see the one that comes with Hudson has a slightly more open mouth (slightly different jaw piece) than the one that comes with Hicks

We need second counters on the time display
