MisterMiracle Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) This Punisher with Photon's Boots and Shield Agent Gloves has become one of my favorite minis in my entire collection. I tried both the Shield gloves and the belt but they didn't look right. I think the gloves I used came from the original Taskmaster. How do you go about posting pictures on here?

buttheadsmate Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 When did Punisher where the pirate boots with that look, though? Years ago .....I remember saying to him " Hey Pun ...you prick ...nice pirate boots " -deadsmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'm with mistermiracle- Grew up with the 90's animated spider-man. Wave 13 to me is the unofficial animated spidey line- minus the x-men half of course. Just need to mod punisher to include his trench coat and teal bandanna....and maybe maybe make a custom chip (I think that was the name of his tech support guy in his van). Already made animated version of mj and aunt may, looking to make a Robbie Robertson, Felicia hardy, the whole crew. Might not reach my insane level of 23 customs for one series(currently held by age of apocalypse) but we'll see. (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate_studio Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I would love to see your 90s animated Spidey mates! I would also love to find this wave soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I have a few here: http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.php?showtopic=10131&st=60 Looking at making alistar smythe first (hover chair version) using xavier's hoverchair with pieces cut off of the giant cannon that came with mvc3 iron man mounted to the sides and bottom. Capt. Stacy from the amazing spidey movie mates is the perfect head/hair. My tru in Michigan had 1 complete set of wave 13 on the shelf. This is the only wave I haven't bought the tru exclusives for (for the figs themselves or fodder pieces). I'm a huge x-men fan, but didn't get into x-force or any character that didn't appear in the cartoon or much after Jim lees run on the comic.

(: Yup, his name was Chip, short for Microchip (referred to as Chip in the animated series and as Micro in the comics and the film Punisher: War Zone).

storm 1:08 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Either her hair went out or this is a Magma variant from the time she went bald. There's just something funny about factory errors that make me get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBurkie Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 My default Punisher isn't anywhere near comic-faithful (to my knowledge). I went with an original design that I thought looked cool for the character: How did you get underarm holsters? Is that a trimmed War Zone vest?

MisterPL Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 There's just something funny about factory errors that make me get them. Thanks for taking one for the (DS)Team. As an opener, I'll take the packaging that's torn, bent, or otherwise sullied so long as the product is intact. I know my LCS owner appreciates it.

MisterMiracle Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I finally got around to opening my Kingpin. At first I was not a fan because his arms looked waaay too long. I pushed in his fists a litte though and surprisingly they each moved up a little more and now it looks fine. So if anyone else was thinking that his arms are too long, it can be fixed. p.s. Can anyone walk me through how to post pictures on here? I'd love to post pics of these when I find them and what I did to fix them up.

Jeff Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I've just started using Photobucket myself. It's free and easy to use. You upload your photos that go into a album, then you'll get a link for that image named: "img" with the HTML code- <img> your file name here <img> if you click on it it'll turn yellow and say copied. On this site where you type your text, click on the picture image icon and paste it into the box with "http". Highlight over the http and then paste otherwise you'll get the <img> twice and it won't work. Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murderofcrows Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 5 Tru yesterday. NONE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) Managed to score on full set from the TRU by my grandmother's house after a family reunion yesterday. The interesting/curious/frustrating thing was there were at least three cases worth of the non-exclusives on the pegs. Think about that one: 12 DD and Kingpin 12 Spidey and Punisher 1 Boomer and Rictor 1 Dani and Magma At least I got a full set. I would have preferred to be able to compare paint on the exclusives, but alas, the ones have don't look too bad Edited June 17, 2012 by Onyx_6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 (edited) That doesn't make much sense to me, as Punisher is an exclusive, and is most likely the biggest draw in the set. My guess is the other Boomer and Dani packs were around somewhere, or maybe weren't even unpacked from the case. But if those two were short-packed (I'll assume they are, considering the characters), it is possible that some scalper who didn't know any better just gobbled those up.

buttheadsmate Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 These are taking a long time to hit TRU.com aren't they ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I think a big part of it is the fact that the Boomer and Dani packs have the exclusive sticker on them. Scalpers are most likely just grabbing the sets with the sticker irrespective of who is in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye's Junk Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 My TRU has stocked them twice. I think the exclusives are two to a case. So two Moonstar and two Rictor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 These are taking a long time to hit TRU.com aren't they ? Frustratingly so, yes. I'd say it's a matter of time, but with them you really have no idea if they'll decide to skip this wave on-line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 What was the last wave the website skipped? Feels like it's been quite a while. Zach said in his AA blog post that they'd be available online, but he might've just been assuming like the rest of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highassroller Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) I thought the last TRU set that completely skipped online TRU.com was the Wave 5 set. The super rare Hulk-buster set did eventually hit the website but was sold out in 3 hours and never restocked online. Hopefully Zach can provide confirmation when these will hit TRU.com. Hopefully TRU is not waiting on all the Amazing Spiderman sets to sell before posting Wave 13. I can definitely see Amazing Spiderman non TRU exclusives warming up the pegs for weeks until the new movie comes out. I was hoping that wave 13 would hit the TRU website before the crappier Movie Inspired Mates came.

717cris717 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Glad to see some are finding these. I have had no luck finding them at my TRU. I hope my TRU gets these and doesn't end up skipping this series like they did with the FF series 8 (which I still need to get, anyone cares to help with that?? ). Or end up geting them on TRU.com instead of wasting my time looking for them Hopefully they are put up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaIceman Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 If anyone finds extras of any of these at their TRU, I'll happily buy 'em from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
