  1. My Cinematic Universe Phase One display. I am saving room in the corner for Wave 22. If anyone can help me out I'm looking for the full set of 7.
  2. @zach pretty sweet.. need that MvC wolverine and Sentinel ahha.
  3. Personally I love battle damaged variants and the sewer battle ones were unique that they weren't just regular-old-battle-damaged, they were covered-in-green-sewer-juice-battle-damaged.
  4. this is epic.... From the @Iron_Man official twitter: Now on display at #ToysRUsTimesSquare: the @Marvel’s #IronMan3 Hall of Armor! http://bit.ly/11Pd7Fy
  5. someone could print out a bunch of ghost rider bikes too. hehe
  6. I would love that! That's exactly what I'm saying, we get a lot of garbage exclusives like that, why not some love for Stan? Garbage? Wow. Hmmm...Sewers are full of garbage? Clever pun?
  7. Thanks for your thorough response. It's pretty interesting that Hasbro has one that's pretty capable of producing high quality stuff. I wonder how long that technology will be available to the average consumer. (10-20 years?) The market would collapse! Of course, by then we will all be dead from 3D printed bullets. And I think the differences between an injection-molded figure and a layer-by-layer printed figure will be instantly noticeable to anybody, so I can't imagine there will be a counterfeiting problem, especially since few Minimates are worth that much, and the ones that ARE worth anything need detailed paint applications and tampo printing, which you can already do on top of any existing 'Mate, if you have the materials. And you can already reproduce pretty much anything by making a mold of it and casting it in a pressure pot, so it's not like 3-D printing is a game-changer except in the realm of exporting digital forms. It's not about reproducing things, it's about CREATING things. Which, again, you can already do with clay, just less precisely. Ah, I see. I guess like monkeycrumb said, it would be more of a blessing than a curse.
  8. just missing dogpool... and well that guy would be more of an accessory speaking of dogpool I've seen a custom one (on the minimates awards show comic) and who made that??? I totally want one
  9. thanks good to know. hopefully we get a minimate-sized hall of armor display. wink wink
  10. that display is pretty sweet, how big are cosbabys? would it be to scale for minimates?
  11. I wonder why they don't call it the Fantastiplane instead
  12. and Unless Series 2 is Mark 8 through 42......
  13. "The bar? Where?" -Tony Stark
  14. We will find out in less than a month!
  15. I'd be quite chuffed if that were the case. Of all the armours that have been shown, The Space armour was one of the more visually distinctive ones. If it could come in a box set with this bad-boy - i'd be happy for the remaining 3 spots to be re-releases of old armours : It's probably fake - but damn, it looks sexy! lol, looks pretty "suite"
  16. What's a spoiler? The box set or the armor? Don't think the armor qualifies as a spoiler, its on the official Facebook page after all lol.
  17. This seems like the most plausible theory at the moment for the boxset. Zach said don't expect to see even 1/10 of the 35 new armors. Simple math means that's 3.5 armors, so at most that would be 3. Which is how many were revealed today. Another possibility I'm thinking is they continue the trend of the previous 2 iron man movie boxsets, with 2 battle damaged versions of previously released/main wave armors and 2 civilians or supporting characters. @Undeadpool, not sure if a second tru wave is in the works, it was never mentioned. And they didn't do that for cap, Thor, avengers, or amazing Spiderman. So i don't think its super likely.. but the boxset is confirmed. This is all just speculation for fun. I am totally stoked for all the IM3 mates so far
  18. Nice!!! I like the parts reuse on the skeleton suit from the Mark V. Was reallllly hoping for Igor though. Oh well. I won't complain, I honestly wasn't expecting 3 out of 3 to be armors.
  19. Yea, although it could severely devalue loose minimates, especially the blanks since those would be easily reproduced. Thanks for all the insight though. I also read somewhere about 3D scanners, it would be pretty scary if someone could scan your key and break into your house though.
  20. Then don't go near Ivan's Database today ! Warned you I kicked the questions asses!! Too easyI'm a massive massive nerd Man, I missed it! Glad I wasn't the only one that fell victim to that trickery. One of the more subtle April Fools internet pranks. Nice, will be spamming refresh on my twitter feed
  21. hey man i love these comics. Is there any way to add a "Previous" and "Next" links so I can read one after another?
  22. Hey everyone, this has been on my mind for a while. But I wanted to know how many of you saw this video on 3d printing and how it's becoming more affordable and realistic to have in the home. http://www.pbs.org/arts/gallery/off-book-%7C-season-two/offbook-3d-printing/ Of course after watching my thoughts drifted to minimates. This could basically allow mass production of homemade figures. (Good for customizers, but bad for DST). It could also hurt the secondary market with counterfeit figures. What are your thoughts? Exciting? Horrifying? Neutral? I'm a little on the fence.
