  1. just glad they didn't go with the shirtless shredder. even as a kid that always bugged me so i never had a shredder figure (i was a weird kid -- now i'm a weird adult)
  2. looking a the lineup for the cancelled animated sets that would be the 8 2packs minus a foot soldier perfectly. i'll take it. would love *cough cough* some extra foots though.
  3. i've got a weird fondness for Rat King. either him or Baxter Stockman (was that his name?) would be my choice for any open spots.
  4. obviously i hope this means more (4?) sets, each with a turtle and a foot soldier
  5. This is exciting news!!! any hints or you still have no idea about the lineup for 3 & 4?
  6. hi @DSTZach -- just want to clear up that the point of my rant was i don't think there's a solution that would please everyone so my hope is that more people become aware so that there are at least more people to buy what i think is the coolest products out there. i was not trying to tell anyone how to do thier job or what they're doing wrong. my apologies if it came off that way
  7. So, ant-man trailer has some interesting stuff. Probably won’t get any minimates out of it but i’m curious how they’d handle the villain who isn’t kang (trying not to spoil anything)
  8. i am speaking purely from my ass here with no inside knowledge of any of this but..... blind packs pissed off a lot of hardcore collectors b/c we're completists and hate the idea of not getting that one per case figure b/c we're completests, we want the whole set comic shops were buying a case, selling a set, then sitting on the rest so they said, lets make better packaging for a set and that way comic shops only have to order what they know they will sell the people that like to buy doubles of stuff are now upset b/c they need to buy a $50 set to get one extra herbie i have no idea what the solution is......other than to keep buying as much product as i can to help ensure it keeps coming i do have a mountain of unopened older sets i should probably start to sell. i think the right question would be how to bring in new fans? by offering favorites? how did the greatest hits lines do? by offering new stuff? like joe and transformers? i think more press is needed. not sure who should be paid off to make sure more toy sites cover these and show off how great they can be but that's what i really wish would happen. i think offering a figure with something else -- like a comic or a record would help get some exposure to new people. not sure what record but maybe the soundtrack to the new marvel movie on vinyl with the toy packaged in. i bought those dvd's that came with figures....but i was already buying the toys so i wasn't a 'new' customer.
  9. i'm going to say that even though bullseye is one of my favorite characters.......this look isn't one i'd miss. however, if he came with parts to make regular bullseye then maybe lose kingpin as the last release of bullseye is hard to come by. i do really like this look for kingpin though so i'd hate to miss out. that said, don't touch the ladies!!!! all 3 of them are awesome!
  10. classic joe helmet - grunt, hawk, zap (?). A few others. sounds good to me. Just get them out!! Actually, the original duke and roadblock figures came with them. Surprised they weren’t included with them. If/when you do the tigerforce repaint i hope they’re in there
  11. I think the irony is i just bought rock steady and bebop from lukes boxing day sale to try and make my own retro style versions.
  12. yeah, my vote would be to finish the seekers (after we get the series 4 shown at sdcc)
  13. i'ma rip these open but 5 pack............i guess the next question is heroes or villians (or mix?)? i don't expect an answer, just thinking out loud
  14. i think the vhs packaging does wonders. but as for the line not doing well i hope i did my part since i bought: 1 series 1 3 series 2 1 series 3 2 of the vhs (mainly b/c of the packaging)
  15. Foot soldier army builder pack please. And casey jones (along with the others already mentioned)
  16. i'm sad i didn't get to work on any in time but very much enjoyed seeing these. good to see folks having fun with thier figures! i did vote though!
  17. @minifigvig no way i'd split my good bad n ugly set. i only got one of them and it is too damn perfect to chop up for parts. not to sound weird....but how'd you dress yourself? i went with stuff i really wear (except for the briefs -- i'm a boxer guy but i don't think any minimates have been made in boxers).
  18. The expendables set with mickey rorke (so?) has cowboy boots but i think they’re tucked into the pants. Lotsa tinted shades - what color tint?
  19. amazon had this thing at $35 for a little while and i bought one to see if it'd work. works pretty good as long as the minimate doesn't have any holsters on thier legs or anything: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08V39ZTTB?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
  20. they can skip eternals. but yeah, hopefully a lot of these characters show up again and we get some of the ones we've missed out on lately. but, to be fair, they've said the whole "not going backwards" thing before and we got the avengers box set, the deadpool, and the logan sets
  21. attitude can count for more than just resemblance. you ever see a kid that reminds you of an older person? its usually attitude and mannerisms. so if you're a bad ass than Samuel works!
  22. Just try and guess which is the real me! terry moore’s photo was at the airport. Couldn’t find the eric powell one. favorite comic character is the flash so i scooped up that big bang theory set just for the shirt and i’m more of a boxers guy but meh And other than the beer gut my chest does look like this i could find a better picture of me b/c my hair is a little shorter than normal here and my eyes are closed but i figured the rest of the photo is worth showing
