Kostisfire Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 They are a success in my book too,i want to buy them but they are kinda expensive on ebay.I'm saying that they didn't sell that well.Though i'm not sure.If i was sony i'd let them produce a second wave,like microsoft did with halo.Halo sold more because they were army builders.

DSTZach Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Tomb Raider is the most recognizable video game character in the world, and has starred in two movies. Kratos is, and has, not. Would have been cool, though. Sony gets paid a guarantee regardless of how well they sell. I'm sure if the Sony line had done well at retail, we'd have tried to do another. But I don't think it did. Before you pay high prices on eBay for them, ask anybody on this board to pick them up for you at TRU. Pretty sure most places still have them on sale.

groundhog7s Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 For arguement sake, I would beg to differ on your thinking TR is the most recognized in the world Zach. I would say Pac Man or Mario might take that spot. Albeit they both sucked, Mario had a movie and a cartoon and has starred in infinitely more games than Lara Croft and has many more toys. And Pac Man is just iconic. The recognition that Mario has is why Nnintendo mates should become a reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) I remember that game. The hardest part was where Mel Gibson tries to team up with Jesus no matter how much Jesus tried to avoid him.

Twisted Two-Face Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Gorgeous, congrats. Love that Hawkeye and Widow. She's obviously what was supposed to be the Iron Man 2 Widow, with a new head, but she passes. A little too tall and purple, though. Hawkeye is fantastic, and my favorite Select, but his loincloth is really really tacky. Not crappy, but sticky. Wetwipes didn't even help. Need to brush dust off every now and then.

A little too tall and purple, though. Actually, the Black Widow movie prototype looked completely different. It has not been repurposed at all. I believe the J.G. Jones mini-series cover was the full inspiration for this one. And congrats, IABRH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Huh, well look at that. I was kinda going off of the boots (VERY movie) and the gauntlet size, but that is a fit. Good on ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Does that SpiderWoman have yellow 'wings'? and if so - is that a running change? i was sure the first release of her had white translucent ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurch77 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 DST 5,000 Facebook Likes Giveaway Contest To paraphrase a popular movie, you don’t get to 5,000 fans on Facebook without giving away some toys. So in celebration of breaking 5,000 likes this week, DST is giving away a ton of free stuff, and you get to win what you like!First, you need to “like” one of the following images in the “5000 Fans” Photo Gallery on the DST Facebook page: - A pair of Universal Monsters toy prototypes - A rare SDCC-exclusive R2-R9 Star Wars vinyl bank - An SDCC-exclusive set of Amazing Spider-Man Minimates, plus original artwork! - A set of three B&W Munsters in test packaging - An unpainted Femme Fatales prototype - A set of four rare Battle Beasts promo Minimates Once you “lIke” an image, send an e-mail with the name of that toy line in the subject line to collectdst@gmail.com. “Like” as many items as you like, but you can only enter once for each item, and you can only win one item overall. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
