  1. the case came into the toysrus down the road from me today. picked up bullseye/moonstone, ironman/warmachine, cap/aim and wolv/saber

    624haul.jpg

    Did you get those from the Brandon TRU? I usually go there since I live in Riverview.

    I'm also looking for a moonstone/bullseye pack. My local TRU has apparently decided to no longer order new 'mates as the wolverine series seems to have barely sold. I am also on paypal.

    Thanks

  2. I checked two stores in the LA area (the Burbank and the La Cienga stores) and neither had them. BUT both were restocking assorted items while I was there around noon. I think I'll check a third store tomorrow and see if they put them out.

    I can't wait to finally get my hands on an AIM solider... Stupid BBTS.

    Brooklyn, NY store finally got the Terminator mates but no new Marvels in stock and none to come this week (as per their customer service rep).

  3. Though I haven't actually read the story, I've always been intrigued by the "Thanos being in love with Death" aspect. Which now makes me want to figure out how one can make a Lady Death minimate. (Ghost Rider's skull, Cloak's hood, Previews exclusive Sand Saref's skirt, those sleeve attachments like on Mariko and/or the classic BSG Lucifer, and some dark blue/dark purple paint?)

    And seriously, Cosmic Marvel is just rife with teams and story arcs tailor-made for the Minimate treatment. Off the top of my head:

    Teams: Guardians of the Galaxy, Starjammers, Nova Corps, Inhumans (kind of), Eternals (kind of)

    Events: Kree-Skrull War, part of the Dark Phoenix saga, Annihilation Wave, Planet Hulk (kind of), not to mention literally the only ongoing comic title I'm reading right now...

    With the Mohawk head piece and high collared cape, can a shi'ar Gladiator 'mate be far behind?

  4. Obviously I don't know what's going on 'on the ground' but ebay-wise the non-exclusives are actually the least-available of the 2nd.Wave !

    I have noticed that, as well. Kind of weird that so many people put the exclusives up, but I haven't seen nearly as many Wolvie/Magnetos.

    Both the Silver Fox and Agent Zero exclusives are up on TRU.com right now.

  5. Anyone wish to supply the UPC for those that can't just merrily stroll to their TRU without a parental and their car?? :blush:

    Posted earlier, but ask for product number 244964. That's the easier way rather than the sku # since the product number identifies them in the TRU system as Terminator minimates whereas the sku # for each package would be different.

    I know this is the wrong forum but were the Moonstone/Bullseye packs in stock as well?

  6. And hopefully my final edit to this list.

    BOTH DA sets are now available for pre-order on DSTs site. Therefore, i no longer need number 2.

    My list is now:

    Stay Puft/GB2 Peter

    Green Keychain

    Thanks!!

    I saw the DA sets listed as "wish list." I have never used that function before. Is that like a request to be notified when they come up for pre-order?

  7. sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but...

    for us East Coasters, how would be get our hands on a set that is "only available at SDCC"? 2,000 is a lot of sets to sell at one site. Will these be available elsewhare (TRU, BBTS, AFX)?

  8. Yeah, DST. I know that you are only over-saturating the Minimarket so that we will stop our complaining, but it won't work until we get Mockingbird. Sorry.

    Right! And after that the Wrecking Crew of course...

    And pioad, you should check the usual suspects in information.

    thanks,

    I checked through DST but not the headquarters. I have been waiting for a Ms. Marvel and an Ares for a while and got freaked out when I saw those. If this is another SDCC exclusive I will also be quite poor this summer.

  9. Okay...WOW!

    Thunderbolts, and all of the Dark Avengers!

    So thats 3 box sets that I want now and they are all virtually the same characters!

    I couldn't find these on the DST website. Anyone know any release information? The suspense is killing me!

  10. And here I was waiting for another Wave 30 code.

    The succession of reactions I had upon seeing the AA post:

    1. Mass-market rerelease of Web Armor Spidey!

    2. Mac Gargan Venom!

    3. JUST Wolverine and (regular) Sabertooth from Wave 28?

    4. New Bullseye!

    5. They're making Moonstone a TRU exclusive?!??!!??

    6. Bad (and ironic) news for the AIM army-builders: What will you do with all those spare Bucky Caps?

    7. Wave 25 Classic Iron Man and Wave 23 Mark I War machine? Hmm.

    WHEN!?!

  11. I tried to get a replacement for Taskmaster because he was missing one of his whie gloves, and they told me they only keep a handful of parts for exclusives and I was out of luck.

    But yeah. Parts thread works wonders.

    I emailed DST because my Cosmic Spiderman was missing a foot about a week ago. I have not yet heard back from them. What was their turnaround time for a response?
