on my original e-mail i sent a picture of the rocky minimate with a red circle round his hair piece saying "this bit missing!!!" so it should be the proper piece they send

what was even nicer is that my lcs has 4 rocky sets on order and was worried about lack of hair piece effecting sales so i asked Chris about it and he's sending an extra 4 for me to pass on to them!

Now thats customer service

not really a new topic more news but I just got an e-mail back regarding the missing hair piece saying

"Please send me your shipping address, and I'll have a hair piece shipped out free of charge."

no word on what happened with the hair piece but at least we can get it

i've wondered how to post pics for ages i'm gonna try it and if a pic appears cools, if this goes t@ts up HELP!!

here goes!

Hurray

cheers guys

bad news for us UK minimate fans is that nothing is shipping over here this week

"nuff said"

I went to my shop last night, who is always reliable to try and verify release dates. avengers wasnt on the list for next week so it was pushed back too.the only thing that was definate was dc series 5. The only marvel mates I got this year so far were X# which doesnt count and the marvel knights set from target. I havent gotten the spiderman box set b/c its sold out. So this year I have gotten 5 waves of dc without one new set of new marvel characters. good job marvel. fantastic.

So what did they say was coming out on the 29th? Were they able to get any other dates from diamond?

this was what i asked about when i was there

1.) MARVEL MINIMATES 2-PK SER 16 ASST **29th August**

2.) ST TOS MINIMATES SER 1 ASST **22nd AUgust**

3.) MARVEL MINIMATES 2-PK SER 18 ASST **10th October**

4.) MAR073020 MARVEL MINIMATES 2-PK SER 17 ASST **10th October**

soooo....

1.) avengers. so another week and a half

2.) what is that?

3-4.) spiderman?

1.) avengers

2.)star trek

3-4.) spider-man 3

Hey AsylumDude.

Good to see you posting

As for the Rocky set, that sucks! It seems odd it would have been shown with and then shipped without. I agree some 'mail-away' to get the missing hairpiece would be a nice solution.

I'll email DST and ask what happened.

T.

cool i've e-mailed them too probably have to wait till monday for a response though

it should also have Brigitte Nielsen as Ludmilla Vobet Drago minimate

yeah i've looked @ the packaging shots and i can't see one anywere in the box buts its pictured on the box not to mention every promo pic has him with a hair piece, i might e-mail diamond and have a moan

wow now i only need about a month to build it & don't go looking around the site as there are loads of other cool stuff, like the batman begins batmobile

my LCS phoned diamond when i was in the shop the other day to get a date and was told the 29th of this month along with dates for other release's

asylumdude have you e-mailed customer services about lack off hair piece.

i would love to see bigger pics (you can e-mail them to me if you don't want to post them)

I think they forgot to do it it in time and just released it without the hair piece.

i think we should all e-mail/write in to complain and get the retailers to complain too because i feel a bit ripped off!!

i thought zombies were 9/29?

LOL

its probably a British thing :captainbritain2:

you know, doing her tank, having a benny, goin off on one, that sort of thing.

Basically moaning about bloke things (IE minimates all over the house)

but i think this might be going so i'll stop now

is was told the 29th for a UK release and we tend to get thing a week later then the US but thats a wednesday and UK comic shops get theirs on the thursday so it might be the 29th

how am i supposed to get all these new minimates in my house without my GF seeing them and doing here tank???

I've just been looking at the the pic's of red tornado and on the background pic behind the actual figure he looks 2.5"

so over the next 4 weeks we're getting a kitchen sink full of minimates thrown @ us, dc 5, trek 1, bsg 2, marvel 16, rocky 1.

to quote rod & tod flanders "thank you lord"

its a previews exclusive so only in comic/comic related shops

nice pics carnage

very cool
