MrClean Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 They look like Asgardian zombies. Maybe Loki's daughter Hel has something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 i'm no Miry authority on the marvel universe, but i would consider myself more than just a casual fan - and i have no freaking idea who those are meant to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Well, now I'm less concerned about us revealing their appearance. Maybe we'll get clearance now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 (edited) So of all the cool, recognizable alien races in the Marvel U, we get zombie humanoid dog creatures. Wonderful. Edited March 31, 2012 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winkerbean Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I'm wondering when these are supposed to be coming out, thor & cap's minimates where out before the film & with wave 44 due in 3-4 weeks does this mean end of May for wave 45?

Mirymate Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 So of all the cool, recognizable alien races in the Marvel U, we get zombie humanoid dog creatures. Wonderful. Like I said- could be any number of Asgadian kritter, Dark Elves, Hela's undead, Mattaliac's jokes actually being true... or New Men/Knights of Wundagore.

I need to post a new ship date schedule, but it's looking like 4/25 for Wave 45 and 5/2 for wave 44. The REDACTED embargo kept us from releasing them too early.

dj87 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I may have had a couple of drinks but once again I was a little taken-a-back by your crazy american dates. day / month / year ... makes far more sense, shirley? its like, if 452 meant five hundred and forty two.

Its all in how you "say" the date we in the US say May twenty fifth, im guessing Brits say it the twenty fifth of May? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I know Matt, I know... just 'avin' a larrrf. Yeah, we'd say 25th of May... it is of course easier here, as there are not currently 25 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 A lot of internet resources claim the Korbonites (Beta-Ray-Billies) to be the aliens. Here's a good comparision and some other suggestions. But I'm really irritated by their thought on the movie aliens' skin color. They aren't green, are the? They're smurfin' blue. I may have had a couple of drinks but once again I was a little taken-a-back by your crazy american dates. day / month / year ... makes far more sense, shirley? its like, if 452 meant five hundred and forty two. I'm confused by this a lot. We, too, use day/month/year and we usually say 25th of May instead of May 25th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I really want it to not be the Korbonites, but that said, if they are, then I'll probably be more likely to pick up extras of the minimates on general principle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Sure that thing vaguely resembles Bill, but BBR is a mutated, gene spliced cyborg. "Normal" examples of his people are hairless, noseless near-human appearing, generally on the skinny side, and like BBR they are brilliant orange in color. Not saying they won't be Korbonites, but they don't look like 616 Korbonites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) Honestly the picture we saw of the REDACTED before, even though it's from the back, didn't look much like this guy. Which is leading me to lend credence to the Thanos's Pirates theory. It could be a mixture of races that may just satisfy everybody. Even the people like me who wants it to be Darth Vader on a Unicycle in a kilt playing the Imperial March on Bagpipes. Anything is possible if you believe...

The Geohound Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Maybe, since we can really only see the face of this one dude, it actually is Beta Ray Bill, where the others look more Korby and they just did away with orange skin for the sake of "Who would believe bright orange aliens could threaten anything?" or something. I really doubt it, mainly because I think that would be stupid, but whatever. I hope no one brings Bill into anything that isn't some Thor movie down the road when this whole crossover movie continuity thing really hits big and then that Thor movie can just be all about Bill's story. That I would pay huge loads of money to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 They definatly look like beta ray bills..... Its as clear as the nose on thier faces........ i'vd just noticed that there are preview screenings doing the rounds on the 11th & special facebook ones on the 14th of this month so we should have answers by then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Hope it's not Thanos. Really do. Making Thanos a pawn of Loki for hs first appearance greatly waters down Thanos. 616 Thanos baerely considers Odin an equal, and has beaten Thor one on one. Usually, when he's working with another villian, say Annihilus, it's because he chose to for his own agenda. But this is the 199999, not the 616 so I understand there will be differences. I'd just hate to see the big T have to share the "big bad" stage with anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm with you Miry. I don't want to see Thanos in a movie until Marvel Studios has the rights to all marvel characters and they make an Infinity Gauntlet movie. Until then, Thanos will never be done justice.

fwoosheyman Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'll third the desire for it not to be Thanos. The villain army in this movie is just cannon fodder. The main focus of the movie will be on the avengers and them coming together. I don't want Thanos to be wasted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 from what we've seen so far, I'm still under the impression Loki will be 'helping' by the end, as in... who or whatever he recruits ends up having a completely different agenda than he thought. As for Thanos, he'd fit that bill, right? Though, the whole rumour of his appearance is based only on the gauntlet appearing for a billionth of a second in Thor, right? There were plenty of other items from Marvel lore in there as well... probably having no more significance than something 'for the fans'. ... do we even know there is a 'big bad' though? A redacted 'general', sure, but that could just be a beefed up redacted fella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrClean Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 There appears to be something printed on the back of the Lego foot soldier' head. Alternate face maybe? Maybe that's the real face that's the secret... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
