  1. I'm not used to being too serious.I would only dream of actually having the talent of even beginning a custom 'mate,let alone a zombie fest 'mate. I tend to jump postings about customs 'cause I know not how! Tonight (tonite) however I read through the entire thread once I happened upon it.You lucky b*st*r*s, what I would give to even compete. Rejoice ,you are all winners ,esp. those who organised it. So ,you had a glitch.That's a shame but you all obviously enjoyed it so what the hell. No stupid punchlines tonight (tonite), from me for a change ,you're all a credit to the 'verse & yourselves.Well done the lot of you.
  2. Especially when you start factoring in outside costs. For instance, I had no idea how much I'd accumulate in hospital bills when I bought the My Asbestos and Me minimate set. And who could forget the Lick a Lead minimate box set. I blew my hand off opening up a C4 Plastic 2-pack that I bought cheap on ebay. I was thinking it would be some sort of new Mini-flyer & I wasn't far wrong. I can count on one hand how many times I regret this. C3 ,you put together,C4 sure takes 'em apart.

Who is Number 1? 10)Cher
  4. Guten Tag bjoern!Sehr erfreut . Ich bin Grolsbritannien und ich spreche kaum Deutsch .....so try ebay. There seems to be a few on German ebay, but your best option is US ebay...billigeres und besseres.Auf wiedersehen .
  5. I would personally like to thank whoever sent me the DeLorean,it arrived this morning What a surprise,a real DeLorean! The postman ,who had obviously been drinking(typical),apologised because it hadn't been posted until 20 years into the future. Good old Post Office I say! Haven't had much time to drive it though 'cause there's a 2 foot square postage stamp on the windshield which we're trying to get off. I don't mean to sound ungrateful but the paintwork's awful & some fool's put the steering on the left hand side. Bad news about poor old 'newbuttheadsmate' as well.
  6. The label goes on almost all hell spawn.com products, which most are much bigger than mini-zombies so they don't seem nearly as intrusive I guess. We currently do not have a smaller one, plus I don't know what an optimum location would have been than where those were applied. 'An optimum location'....stick 'em ..er...um..uh...somewhere else. ****** This post has been self-censored by 'newbuttheadsmate' who no longer cusses or attempts to offend in any way.******
  7. Honestly in the 15 years we've been in business, I've never been told that our label was a "blight" to the products we sell, but your criticism is well noted and will be taken into consideration for future shipments. Thanks for the feedback. However, please do be aware that it is our understanding that the 2-pack exclusive is set to have a color label of our logo applied to the window at the factory by DST themselves, which is apparently the way they handle distributor exclusives to indicate an exclusive product for a particular vendor. It's not the label ,its the size & where you stuck it.I respect the fact that you've replied & I take on board your comments about the up & coming exclusives packaging. I recall the Street Fighter AFX & Hollywood exclusives & their labels , obvious but subtle.
  8. Regardless of the fact that the label is easily removed, please email me at the address given on the business card included with your shipment including your order number, and I'll send you a replacement set free of charge without one of our promotional labels. How's that? I appreciate your gesture. The label is easily removed & has been removed,alas the glue & subsequent marking to the 'window' remains. I'm in the UK & my order was for eight....yes ....eight of these,by the eighth removal of this 'promotional' label I began to get the hang of it! I appreciate the offer but i choose to decline it in the hope that subsequent items that you send out to other members aren't blighted in the same manner. Thankyou.
  9. My shipment arrived today from BTTF.com........what the hell is the point of the bloody great label on each box ?I know where I bought them from without this disgusting label defacing each box. What makes it so infuriating is that these are some of the best 'mates I've seen in one of the best packaging designs . Brilliant 'mates shame about the label .
  10. Hey,I would carefully say that I care about you caring but be careful caring to care that carefully because we care about you.Take care.
  11. I hope you swim fucking better than you spell.... at the regoinals on saturaday. LOL I hope I do too. I just need to drink a gallon of redbull and listen to RAMMSTEIN a lot to get pumped up for Saturday If I have offended you ,NINTENDOwii',or anybody else by my comments, I apologise.
  12. I hope you swim fucking better than you spell.... at the regoinals on saturaday. LOL I hope I do too. I just need to drink a gallon of redbull and listen to RAMMSTEIN a lot to get pumped up for Saturday Sooooo....how did you get on?
  13. ''I have learned so much today '' ''What have you learned Grasshopper?'' ''I have learned that 9 decades is 90 years,I have learned also that 'the decline of British power in the UK' is a complete contradiction in terms '' . ''That must be your hanDDDover Grasshopper'' ''Yes master my hanGGGGover'' ''Lerts not let your emotions get the best of you,or result to low brow insults against me or Americans ,Grasshopper '' ''Lerts Master?'' ''Yes Grasshopper...lerts'' ''What are lerts Master'' ''They have' been outlined & studied extensively in multiple discourses'' ''Has alcoholism been attributed to this directly?'' '' No you prick...... that would be the Jack Daniels''
  14. Im in the UK. I buy daily from US suppliers. I specify USPS Global Priority which may surprise you is the US Postal Service. I have never had a problem with excessive delays .You know what , the only time I get a problem is when a supplier fails to use this slightly more expensive system. If you send something via the USPS how the hell is it the total responsibility of the UK PO for a delay in getting it to the customer. As regards your comments re: my country ,I doubt that this is the opinion of a rational person , so get some treatment for whatever ails you. Also it's fucking obvious to me now why you haven't received your 'Free mates from DST 'that you're forever bleating about..... they're probably lost in the post. All Dan was asking for was some advice which some of us freely gave .Here's some for you ...bigotry is a disease of the weak-minded, get some help.
  15. I understand your concerns Dan but the PO is an area where logic goes out of the window. I have had a few bad moments on ebay & its usually the wait for the stuff to arrive. My advice is to politely pester the seller ,emphasis on politely. If they are genuine, they will respond. From their response you'll be able to 'get a feel'. The strike has caused problems for buyers & genuine sellers.
  16. I hope you swim fucking better than you spell.... at the regoinals on saturaday.
  17. I moved house some months back & have just started to re-organise (find) my collections. Tonight I have been sorting through my Star Wars Kubricks. My love of Minimates is well-documented but I had forgotten (these have been in storage for some while) how wonderful some of these figures are. Check out the jedidefender web-site if you're interested.
  18. Hey Omendreamer ,I'm probably older than your dad but your parents wishes are paramount.....however..... 100+ 'mates are a)easy to carry b)important to you ....& c) hideable(is that a word?). There comes a time ....etc. If your dad's having his cards away with him, just take your 'mates,he won't know & he won't mind. I've been watching all this on TV & it's bloody awful, take care.
  19. Damnit, is there some mailing order to this?? I still haven't received my mates! I hope they offer a second award or contest. How about a collection giveaway for those of us that are huge fans that sunk thousands into the line. If you can show your 250+ minimate figure collection with you standing next to it, you get a free "hunt" minimate, etc. Any other Chicago folks who haven't gotten their exclusive minimate?? There are many of us who aren't in the US ,who are Radicals ,who will never get FA from DST . Many of us will never be able to walk into Target & 'clear the shelves of cheap 'mates'. Many of us have collections large & small that we are proud of despite the cost! Most of us aren't whingeing about it though. If you've 'sunk thousands into the line' then buy a hunt' minimate on ebay ,yesterday,one sold for $15.55 , hardly a fortune when you've spent so much. Good Luck to everyone who's got a freebie & well done to who ever's sending them out!
  20. I moved house recently so I'm just re-organising my collection(s). So what? So....I've just found my 'Shrek' Kubrick Box Sets which includes Donkey. He (haw) is going to look awesome amongst Sergio's boys. Well maybe not awesome but bloody funny.
  21. I personally prefer non-sculpted heads unless the character demands it .Probably some of the most popular 'Mates are also the simplest in design,Symbiote Spider-man being the foremost example. C3 'mates are some of the simplest 'Mates yet they have subtle costume & facial expressions that set them above many of the current DC characters.
