Heroic Slacker

A little pissed off at the moment.

Called my TRU up asked about the Iron Man 3 minimates, gave the item # and description, the sales associate checked, said they had them, told her to put the wave on hold for me, double checked with her to make sure it was the correct item. Drove there after class, not only were the 'mates not on hold for me, the store hadn't even got them in yet. Had no idea what the associate thought they were doing, or if they were just getting a kick out of lying, they were already off work when I got there so I couldn't ask what the deal was. The associates that were at the store were really polite and apologized. I'm just kind of stunned, like if they didn't have them its fine, but to lie about having them, holding them for me, all that, was just a really messed up move.

Yeah the FCBD Tyreese is brand new and exclusive to that issue.

I don't think the television series dictates what Minimates we get, as Andrea is a major character in the comics I would imagine we'll see her again.

Have any of the iron man 3 minimate sets hit toys r us yet?

Look about 10 posts up

No, they haven't been seen at retail yet. Luke got an early case from TRU.com but thats about it so far

according to DST on facebook the TRU mates wont hit til June. :-\

In reply to me whining about pointless visits to TRU:

"I haven't even showed packaging shots yet. When I show them, that's when

they're a few weeks away. TRU will also list an early case on the

Website in advance of the main shipment. I wouldn't look before then."

and then in reply to some other guy:

"Packaging shots just arrived, so it should be out in June, possibly before Series 51."

That was about Wave 16, not the IM3 TRU wave of Minimates

Ai Apaec!

Love the current Dark Avengers

Looks awesome man!

Really hope we get her in this costume, and a new diamond form.

Wouldn't mind Rocket Raccoon getting a varaint, one in his current GotG garb and one of his classic 1980s green outfit.

It looks like it might work with the Boogie Man stand

Pepper will be in the box set.

Yay!!!

I think there was only one incarnation of the team the members were

• Silver Samurai
• Sunfire
• GoGo Tomago (New Character)
• Honey Lemon (New Character)
• Hiro Takachiho and Baymax (New Characters)
• Ebon Samurai (New Character)
• Sunpyre (Alternate reality version of an existing character and a Mutant)
• Wasabi No Ginger (New Character)
• and Fred (New Character)

So they could easily leave off Sunfire, Sunpyre and Silver Samurai and use the rest of the team. From the reports Hiro is going to be the protagonist albiet with a different last name Hamada (could be press report misspelling Harada). Who knows? Should be fun though.

I honestly doubt we'd see Uncanny Avengers Scarlet Witch, Captain America and Wolverine in a boxset as they are all in TRU Wave 16.

Really hoping AFX does a complete team with one box set at SDCC and the second one at NYCC, X-Factor or the Brotherhood would be awesome.

Correct me if I'm wrong but pretty sure Disney has the animated rights to Marvel Mutants. Wolverine showed up in Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

Well Sunfire is getting an animated movie from Disney, so lets finally get a Sunfire minimate

I've got both, X-23 is probably one of my favorite heroes, and easily my favorite PvP heroes besides Psylocke. Her moves are just killer, tons of bleeding and hemoraging applications. Trigger scent can be kind of annoying but other than that she is a great hero to use.

More Pepper 'mates sounds good

This is pretty amazing. I wish we made Nausicaa Minimates. Seems appropriate.

Dude Zach, now I want a Nausicaä line, and a giant God Warrior 'mate.

Sweet, worth buying two sets now.

Love that Victoria Hand and Pixie!

DST was pretty smart when it came to the New Mutants, multiple looks for multiple sales, and a complete team

I really want Pepper in her white business apparel, and then of course how she looks later on, and Final Battle REDACTED would be cool as well I kind of want one of Harley using the Thunderkittens body. Other then that more armors please.

I feel the same, I picked up the Gruntos & Scalpus set hoping to make an easy Bushmaster custom, but I've really fallen for the design, so now I've got to buy another set to use as custom material. When I get the money I want to pick up TRU wave 1.

Wow, I just used Rescue for one of the tasks and she is easily the most pathetic character in the game IMO. I wondered how they would change her to make her relevant to this game since she's pretty much all defensive stuff in the comics, but I found they didn't change her at all. She has one offensive move that does almost no damage and her defensive moves aren't very impressive either. She kinda looks cool, but I forsee her rarely ever being used in PvP and I dread having to level her up.

Dude I agree so much (waits to get flamed again)

She's basically The Scroll of Angolob in a character slot. The two times I've used her as a teamup so far (Blizzard and Iron Patriot) she defended quite well, but her flyby attack was straight up pathetic.

This may just be for me, but this Spec Ops is quite easy I'm more than halfway done so far.

Just to safe get that clear nail polish.

I can't wait for the TRU wave to arrive, love the designs.

Just got back from seeing the film.

Loved it

During the entire film I kept thinking of armors, characters and outfits I wanted as figures.

The whole reason I don't display that Havok is because he reminds me too much of Geoffry
