the problem will be in the case assortments. if they put two troopers together but pack it the same as the other figures in a case without making extras then they'll just become rare figures that frustrate collectors like us who can't army build.
but make them available solo (like multiple man or crazy 88's) and i think they'll sell the shit outta them. i think i bought 8 of the crazy 88 packs. if they made crimson gaurds, cobra troopers, vipers, alley vipers then i might do the same.
my favorite joes were: Duke, shipwreck, Hit N Run, and Beachhead.
later on Jinx and Falcon.
bad guys, firefly, Battle Android Troopers, Techno Vipers, Alley Vipers.
and who didn't like the various snake eyes' and storm shadows?!
well, i was hoping it would be joe but wow!!
i love the shockwave design. would love to see a unicron statue or something that would go with this but that would probably be wishful thinking.
and a joe box set is already designed?!?! i think the issue is they'll never get to everyone's favorite characters but hopefully there's something for everyone!
i'll preorder from my shop ASAP!
i want them bad! but i read that on facebook and then watched this video and it wasn't minimates he mentioned -- it was some kind of blind box.
same kind as those big headed bruce lee's they made. i hope i'm wrong and it was minimates he was talking about but i didn't hear minimates
so i'm blown away by the show but i'm not sure what 4 minimates i'd pick from the show (4 being the number of figures we got from Falcon and Winter Soldier).
so back to what Zach was teasing for this friday -- anyone have any guesses (or hints)?
i ordered 3 of those iron giants so yay!!! they look so damn cool i liked the idea of using them as generic robot monsters and at the price it works out great. thanks for the update.
as for sdcc.........again no minimate exclusives then?
really cool of you! i was lucky getting the orange one at sdcc. Nickelodeon's booth had already handed them out and i had missed it. when i went to go ask they were like sorry - all gone. then they went, oh, here's one on the floor and handed it to me.
and i think you gave me the leo
so i noticed the guy i bought my iron man/ghost pack from has more available plus the miles/prowler set. no one else seems to. you think its that these are just available there or that they're slowly leaking out or ??? i just find it weird. i guess minimates aren't a hot item that everyone knows to scalp but i just find it weird this guy is finding so many.
