I like the Spidey Jacket as just a comic themed jacket for civilian fans too
-
I thought I saw someone asking for a comparison of these two and I didn't see if anyone had taken a pic yet
New X-Men Sentinel (left) and Wave 19 (right) are almost exactly the same. The paint seems a slight shade different and the eyes on wave 19 has a circle in it. The chest tampo seems slightly larger too

What is the best way to get the bandanas off...?
I heated up the head, then used a small screwdriver to pry the top of the head off. The bandana and two head pieces had a small bit of glue holding them together near the bandana knot (or at least the one head I took the bandana off had a small bit of glue, there may be more or less on other figures)

I may not like every single different Predator, but as long as there's a basic movie Predator with sculpted mask, I'm in!

Where are you finding these? My TRU has a unique section just for Marvel and Star Wars now and there are no signs of minimates. There doesn't seem to be an empty peg for where they should be going either.
My TRU also has the Star Wars/Marvel super double aisle with two kiosks in the middle of it. The Marvel Minimates have been moved to the kiosk facing the Avengers 2 toys at these stores (H = half kiosk) The arrow is where the 2 packs were in one store, at the other store the infinity box sets were put in about the same area, but on a corner wire frame

Winston-Salem, NC got wave 19 in, I believe a couple were sold already because me and a friend got 1 3/4 sets (I didn't want the IM set) and there were still 3 sets left. Greensboro said they're getting a truck today, so they may have a full case if any other local collectors are looking

yep, though he's called Spike when he's Raph's pet, he chooses the name Slash for himself after he's mutated

Here's another gallery of the DST booth at Toyfair

You can see the accessories that the four Turtles come with a bit better here. I love that Donnie comes with Mutagen and the gameboy mutagen tracker! -
That is an awesome book!
-
Damn......Way to make me want to re-buy all 4 turtles DST! Seriously, all the alternate heads and accessories are killer on the Turtles and Casey
-
^^^ So much awesome news in just 3 little sentences
-
I really thought the Expendables sets held that title
-
According to the Toy Fair website, it lasts until Tuesday the 17th

5:24p, but I think DST's panel/presentation is supposed to be Monday? Maybe Sunday? but I assume they have some stuff on display, just have to wait for people to take pics and post them.
I'm assuming we don't see any Predator mates. I want to say we didn't see any Aliens last year (though they were on display) But I may be remembering 2013

Hasbro are announcing
'2" Marvel 500 figures in blind bags'
Any idea what these could be? Seems like could end up competing directly with minimates :/
Might be these preposed, plastic figures:
-
I'm not normally a fan of the original turtles, I also grew up with the Cartoon and toys being my first exposure to TMNT, but I do really like that Mirage box set (even more so that it's in color and not black and white, I know, I'm an unwashed heathen
) -
I do see a ton of civilian mates in this line (I think Selena and maybe one or two of the "villians" have the closest thing to "costumes" in the show) I think I want a Gordon, Bullock and Penguin. I'm also looking forward to the custom potential
-
I do think Arrow or Flash Minimates would have been better, but I think I'm in for a few Gotham Minimates, plus the custom potential could be good.
-
I am all in for Batman TAS Minimates. I'll be buying every single one that comes out plus a few multiples
-
-
I've been thinking the playsets for that line would probably work well with Minimates
-
^^^^That's where I'm at for a space suit too. Something you can also have piled in a corner
-
Finally got my Movie Mars order yesterday. This was apparently the second package they've had shipped to me (I'm thinking the first one was never physically shipped though)
I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised by the Munchkin Goblin. I thought I'd kinda like him, but he's growing on me a lot more than I originally thought he would
-
Sadly most of the TRU's around me haven't carried any box sets, just two packs. The past year or two they seem to be testing the waters with box sets, Expendables 2, PvZ, Clerks & the new Infinity one. PvZ disappeared really quickly and there might be one Clerks set left, the other two have hung around a bit (Expendables was clearanced out super cheap and it doesn't look like more than maybe two Infinity sets have sold)
I just wish they would have tested the waters with sets I really wanted
The Alien™ Franchise
in TV, Movie, & Video Game Minimates

I used the Treehouse playset in a few shots when I reviewed the dump case. I hope the powerloader and queen aren't too big for it
The lego powerloader I made is just a tad too tall to be displayed in it
