TM2 Dinobot Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Just calm down, fellas. We go through this every time there's a new TRU set; in all likelihood, they will be restocked and we'll all get them. Remember how everyone was tearing their hair out for Crossbones and Balder? I'd hardly say those are rare now. Just have a little patience, and you'll find 'em. Aye. It's been a few weeks. I haven't seen hide nor hair of them yet. Give it a month or three. If they haven't shown up at that point, then start to panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully so as I definitely want to complete my New Mutantas as well as add two more 90s X-Force members to my collection...and of course the new Kingpin to replace the old one. My local TRU restocked minimates recently it seems...with another pack of Amazing Spider-Man when they already still have almost a full row of which the only ones were bought were ones by me(bout one of each of the TRU exclusives).

TM2 Dinobot Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 What head and hair would work best for a human Magma? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Now I want Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Minimates. And Oompa Loompas, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I would guess the TRU Invisible Woman hair would be pretty accurate. As for the face, well, any young pretty girl head should do. Maybe even the extra Wolfsbane one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortherX Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 will someone either holler at me when these start showing up on the west coast, or if anyone has a spare set of magma/mirage and boomer/rictor pm me! it's way too difficult for me to get out to a toys r us now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TM2 Dinobot Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I thought Amara was kind of Samoan colored? Or was that only in X-Men Evolution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipstream Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I thought Amara was kind of Samoan colored? Or was that only in X-Men Evolution? She was always super white in the comics. From Nova Roma, basically Ancient Rome in modern times. Blond and light skinned. Even though Nova Roma was in South America.....Magma's origin never really made much sense...

DaveOMac Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My TRU still doesn't have these and with no sign of these on tru.com, I am going to have to pay ebay prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Yeah, it's hard to remain patient. I'll be near a TRU later today. I'm crossing my fingers these'll finally be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was Brazilian in the show but white (Roman) in the comics. Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) I am not recommending this as it could potentially d!ck over other collectors in your area, but I can state for a "hypothetical fact" that *if* someone were to say, buy up all of their TRU Waves 10,11,12 stock from their local store, and return it to various other TRU locations, their local store *may* get restocked with Wave 13. I may have just done this nefarious thing last week... Edited June 28, 2012 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 So, did it work? Uh, hypothetically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hypothetically? No it didn't... This mess is all because of the same damn SKU number being used from Wave 10. My store only ever gets a single case at a time, and I had a full case (12) of TRU 12 in my store for quite some time, 7 Beta Ray Bills, 5 Arnim Zolas. TRU's inventory saw this as a "full case" of the current series and didn't bother sending any more stock. As soon as those 12 packs were sold, however, something somewhere was flagged to send more inventory to that store, and it was Wave 13. Hypothetically... What head and hair would work best for a human Magma? Any head works, but I used the short blonde hair from one of the early BSG waves. I need to add the new Spider Sense effect to my custom Magma and get a new picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For everyone's edification: http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2011/12/30/the-abandoned-an-forsaked-so-who-is-magma-after-all/ I'd say Undeadpool's right, and the Menace head/hair would make for the best combo. But, really, and female head/blond hair combo should do. This isn't rocket science here, people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I think I cleaned out what was left in KA's TRU. I searched high and low but only found 1 of each except for the New Mutants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 (edited) 3 of the 4 packs have hit TRU.com. Just waiting for Rictor/Boomer to show up. Looks like they have 100 cases. Edited July 1, 2012 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Awesome. Thanks for the info YB. Ordered mine up as soon as I saw that. The lack of Boomer and Rictor was no big deal to me, since I was never planning on getting those anyways. This has made my morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebraska Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Thanks for the heads up! I was able to buy a set as well along w/the Amazing Spider-Man sets & Expendables boxset as well. Hopefully the 4th pack shows up today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
