winkerbean Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Wait a minute, we're letting Luke go on vacation. shouldn't this sort of thing be discussed in a Committee before hand? Edited May 20, 2012 by winkerbean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 when Luke got 44 & 45 in stock (last week?), I'm pretty sure he said Spidey would be in the next 30days. Probably not next week, but soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 They should hit on the 30th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Got the Spidey/Parker and BD SPidey/Lzard packs in the mail today from TRU. They're amazing. And now you can all lament the fact that my computer won't recognize my camera and I can't post pics yet. I'll get some up as soon as possible (hopefully tomorrow).

DSTZach Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Meant to post packaging shots today, and shoot sewer shots in my basement. Will try to do it tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I'm guessing that the basement isn't the biggest selling point on your house, is it Zach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 There's not too much to tell. Spidey and Peter Parker come with an extra head (no glasses) and skateboard and Peter has a removable bag (new accessory). BD Spidey has the unmasked BD head and same bag. Lizard's tail is removable and there's a stand in the pack with him and Pete. Lizard's legs are totally awesome. I've got pics now and will get them on a disc tomorrow to get them uploaded here.

Twisted Two-Face Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Not sure what else there was to expect, really. The coat was a late addition it looks like, and we already saw all of those accessories anyway. Still unsure on these. If anything i'm getting Ben and Dennis Leary. Ben because everyone needs a Ben to go with Comic May, and Dennis Leary is just too awesome. He can lead my current Police, or join SHIELD. The rest...i just don't know. Don't get me wrong, the protos of them all look great, but them movie is killing my excitement for them. I hate the costume anyway, so two versions are entirely unwanted, I hate Emma Stone (though this Gwen looks very nice), The SWAT team is fairly basic, Sally Fields is just....entirely unnecessary and bland as hell, and Pete coming with Spider-man is just a bad idea in general. All entirely IMO, just not excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I'm guessing that the basement isn't the biggest selling point on your house, is it Zach? It's a dirt cellar, and there's a stack of old clay pipes down there. I shot some Real Ghostbusters shots down there once. But no, it's not. Not sure what else there was to expect, really. The coat was a late addition it looks like, and we already saw all of those accessories anyway. We almost got the coat in at the last minute, but there just wasn't enough time.

groundhog7s Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Sorry about the glare and quality-I'm still figuring out a new camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Nice pix, GH. I should get my order today, will get some pix of the exclusives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks for the pics, Groundhog. Really like the packaging - bright and eye-catching, and a strong tie-in to the movie. Lizard looks nice, but all I see when I look at Peter is parts for other customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Is the lizards tail ball-jointed in sections, it looks it in the photos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Is the lizards tail ball-jointed in sections, it looks it in the photos? Not really ball joints, it doesn't add a lot of articulation. Here are more pix, including the TRU exclusives! Spider-Man [Absolutely beautiful, despite what you may think of the costume, this is a PERFECT Spidey Minimate!] Peter Parker [New skateboard piece is much nicer than the old BTTF one, it would be perfect for Night Thrasher! ] Lizard Damaged Spider-Man Dr. Connors Gwen Stacy Vigilante Spider-Man Capt. Stacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The might not be the most impressive Minimates (due to source material) but they look like a very solid wave! Defo gonna pick a few sets up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Dennis Leary is just fantastic. Does he still have a normal NYPD Torso under the body armor?? Gwen and Dr. Connors turned out pretty great, i won't lie. Don't see a need for Connors, but Gwen just be a comic stand-in like Uncle Ben i guess. If i get any of these, i'll just grab the exclusives. But Dennis Leary is a guarantee. Is the Lizard's head a new mold? The back looks...different.

youbastards Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I never even checked Capt. Stacy, here he is without the vest, and a side shot of Gwen's new ponytail piece. That is a new mold on Lizard's head, unless mine just happens to be slightly misshapen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I have to say, the Stacys are looking more and more awesome to me with every picture I see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBurkie Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Looking forward to the Stacys & a regular Spidey. I wish the webbing wrapped around the hands, but what are you going to do.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Finally, the MAX guys can have a guy in a dress shirt to order them around. And thanks yb for posting more pics of the wave that made mine look like crap. Of course, they were crap so thanks for improving on that.
