  1. That's weird. On my receipt it shows "Liscense."

    I should mention that this was the SuperTarget in my area (I have 5 Targets within 9 miles of me). Another Target I visited did not have this section at all.

    I want to say I've seen the gogos things on clearance so they're probably just repurposing a DPCI number to use for the WD Mates. Could be this is just a limited release thing like you said, may just be at Super Targets

  2. So, Target is now carrying TWD minimates in store:

    Found 10 2-packs on the back wall behind electronics. Had to pick up a Tyrese pack and a Martinez pack.

    ....Wish it was the next wave with the burning zombie. It looks like there's a whole Walking Dead area there, I'll have to check out my stores

  3. I want to say I found Wave 18 on Jan. 8th I was hoping to find wave 19 around the same time but no luck yet

    On a side note......we've only had one Marvel (non movie) wave at TRU in a whole year!? I guess I was spoiled in 2013 thinking 3 or so waves were the norm :)

  4. Just an update on my Movie Mars order, I didn't receive it by Friday so I called them today and they said they don't know what happened to it because it shows it was shipped but it was never scanned by DHL/USPS. So they are going to send me another set of the Munchkin Goblins. While looking up their info again today I realized their offices are only an hour and a half from me, I almost suggested that I'd just swing by today and pick up my Minimates :)

  5. This is the specialty/comic shops assortment.

    If it was a retailer-exclusive assortment, it would have said. And yes, there will be both TRU and Kmart assortments, each with an exclusive character or two, similar to how Series 1 broke down. More to be announced.

    Blue Kraang will be out in Series 2. Didn't say where.

    Two of these specialty figures will NOT be available anywhere else. Turtles will be everywhere, the way you see them here.

    I remember them saying that, but it's not in the Wave 2 blind bags, and I thought Zach said it got bumped.

    We've only seen the LCS blind bags for wave 2, there's still Kmart blind bags and TRU 2 packs we haven't seen

  6. Red Skull has a full "Uncanny Avengers"-style outfit underneath, with coat and Cosmic Cube.

    Hobgoblin has T-shirt chest block, unmasked head and glider.

    Was already excited about Falcap, Hobgoblin & Apoc, but now I'm glad to get that Red Skull as well!

    Anyone who's read the comics and such care to fill me in on what the deal is with a Hobgoblin T-shirt chest? I assume he wears a T-shirt at some point? Is it this Got a problem shirt I see a few pictures of after a google search?

  7. Well, my tracking info from Movie Mars shows my package hasn't shipped, so I called DHL and they confirmed they received notification of the shipment, but it hasn't been picked up yet and told me to contact the shipper.

    I called Movie Mars and after 10 minutes of being on hold, I was told that it hasn't shipped yet and I should call back Monday if the order status hasn't changed...

    I just had a similar but slightly different experience. Tracking info says electronic info received, DHL says they have no package, call Movie Mars and after a short (maybe a minute or two) wait I'm told this is one of those rare cases where the delivery confirmation number didn't get scanned, but that the package was shipped out and I should get it by the end of the week and if I don't I should call back on Monday

    So what I'm hearing is that it's normal for DHL/USPS to take two weeks to ship a package? I'm pretty sure, my wait time on the phone today was so they could track down the two figures I bought (Munchkin promos) and then they'll slap them in an envelope and send it out today, but we'll see what the postmark (if there is one) shows when the package (eventually) arrives

    BTW, how is it that Luke's (which sounds to be a two person shipping operation) and a few other small businesses I know can get stuff shipped out in a timely matter, but these guys and Paizo have weeks and months long waits for shipping?

  8. I don't exactly remember my first set (I spent many years seeing them in stores and going "those aren't for me" then a friend convinced me I could easily make Doctor Who customs and I started buying Minimates for that purpose) The first sets I remember picking up to keep as is were the Ghostbusters 2 Egon and Ray sets.

    I was surprised at the amount of detail on the figures and silently cursed myself for passing up all the 1st Ghostbuster Minimates I had seen previously

  9. I tried doing some searches on the forums and here's my conclusions about the possibilities of Kraang in Series 2:

    1. Maybe the facebook DST was talking about the Normans

    2. Zach mentioned Kraang would be released later down the road, possibly meaning the clear one found at KMart would be released in another avenue in another wave, thus leaving the Blue Kraang to be released in the TRU or Kmart assortment of Series 2

    3. Blue and Clear Kraangs will not be in Series 2 at all, but will possibly show up in another wave

    I'm sure one of these is at least 25% accurate biggrin.png

  10. Plans could've changed, but considering the blue kraang was mentioned as being in series 2 on facebook, I assume he'll be one of the retailer exclusive figures....here's hoping he's at TRU smile.png

    Zak has already said. They would do Kraang again, not necessarily in the second wave.

    Just saw this discussion on DST's Facebook page:

    I've gotten all *except* the blue Kraang... is that one out?

      Diamond Select Toys No, that one is not available. It will be in Series 2.
