Mirymate Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I'm *hoping* that the mask on the "Fear Itself" Hawkeye will match the colors with the previously released Dark Avengers Hawkeye so I can get rid of that google-eyed mask he had, swap a few parts around and have a master Br'er Hawkeye. I wouldn't worry about it. You are such a tease, Oat. Such a dirty, dirty little tease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 new Hawkeye and Bill & Ted mates announced in the same week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Other than that, Children's Crusade has kinda killed my interest in YA mates. Less the release schedule for me, more that Heinberg has truly out-Bendised Bendis on the 'having everyone stand around talking all issue' thing. On the other hand, if you had been tasked with making the events of Dissassembled and House of M fit into previously established 616 continuity (other than a giant "then this happens because I want it to" from Bendis) and render Wanda a useable heroic character again, then you might get wordy too. I guess? The whole book's been really boring though, not just that one bit with the explanation of why she went nuts. And I can't imagine they'd task Heinberg with anything other than coming back, they've been wanting him to follow up Young Avengers for years, I'd think he could've told any story he wanted to. Maybe I'm just remembering the original series as better than it was, I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 This talk of House of M makes me wish we'd get a boxed set. It would justify a re-do of Scarlett Witch! How about: Scarlett Witch Hulk Hawkeye Uniformed Wolverine or Ironman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Do we know if Magma will come with a depowered head and hair peice like they did with wolfsbane and sunspot? Signs point to no. Bummer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 That's a shame about Magma, I'd have bought an extra two-pack to display her powered up and depowered forms. Ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It would justify a re-do of Scarlett Witch! We don't need HoM for that. It's the "Avengers year" so- Cap's Kooky Quartet boxed set. -Captain America (maybe with some kind of shield throw stand) -Scarlet Witch (new hex accessory) -Quicksilver (green costume) -Hawkeye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valo487 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Please, no more Captain Americas....we'll get more than enough. If you want that box set at least give us something new. Personally I'd prefer a new Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch in a Brotherhood box set with Toad.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Got in some samples, thought you'd like to check them out. Have a Mirage and Rictor, too, will shoot them in a bit. Looks like Magma got a recolored Nova base for hot lava action. And Mirage comes with two belts? Was someone asking about that? Two belts. Wish I had more New Mutants here to shoot her with; ditto X-Force and Boomer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsMarvel fan Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) awesome. Have we seen Magma's hair sculpt before? ...and I think Boomer's shoulders are on backwards. Edited February 20, 2012 by MsMarvel fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Digging the heck out of that Punisher Too bad my new Toys R Us, after being open a couple of months, has shown itself to be no different than the old Toys R Us. I haven't seen a new Minimate on display since around Christmas. They're just not very well organized or run. Despite living 5 minutes from a Toys R Us, I guess I'll be playing the ToysRUs.com lottery with this wave. . .again Edited February 20, 2012 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I thought that collar seemed high, and I didn't turn her around to see what the back looked like. Hope that's not standard for the packaging for this wave. I'll re-shoot her later. (I was too fixated on the side of her pants.) Edited February 20, 2012 by Zach Oat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Heh. I thought it was just Liefeld-esque armor overkill. Looked like Punisher:War Zone armor, which of course, is completely appropriate for a character that runs around shooting fireworks out of her fingers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Digging the heck out of that Punisher Me, too! The more realistic Punisher gets, the less he works for me. I like a guy with a gun in a skull jumpsuit. End of story. Two more, one blurry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Agreed! The only real issue I have with this figure is that he doesn't have his white gloves and shrimping boots! I've actually been lobbying (in my way) for a classic Punisher re-dux for a couple of years now, so I'm super psyched that it's finally happening.

youbastards Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks for the updated pix, this wave looks amazing! If you are taking more pix, can I request to see Spidey's webbing? Also, can you confirm if one of Mirage's belts an "X" belt and the other is this design?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, can you confirm if one of Mirage's belts an "X" belt and the other is this design?: Yes and yes. Sorry I discover some details right before you guys do. If I asked for clarification on every single Minimate accessory we made, Robert would strangle me. Looking back, I see that the belt was on the control art, and I may not have ACTUALLY looked at it. I may just see about showing you guys the artwork after each wave is revealed. Downside is something may not make the cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Cool, assuming it is just a reuse of the Ghost Rider belt, it should be perfect. i for one would LOVE this, even if its sad to see what didnt make it, either to show us the process, or where parts came from, or even for some sort of book filled with all the minimate control art I would totally buy coffee-table style book of Minimate control art, I think you are onto something undeadpool!

Mystery Man Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the pics, Zach! That Punisher is the coolest! -When do you think these'll be coming out? -Does the Spidey have a hole in his head or does the spider-sense effect connect to the neck somehow? These are so cool!
