Onyx_6 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Just a reminder to everyone: TRU offers free shipping to your door if you have someone order it for you in store. I have gotten Heralds this way, as well as the SDCC Ghostbusters and the ASM exclusives. Oh and the Green Lantern preview figure with the ring.

DaveOMac Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Super pissed I missed out on these figured there would be a ton of stock and was waiting for wave 13 to show up. I knew I should have bought. BTW it is an exclusive set. See here: http://crimsonmonkey.com/previews/preview-the-expendables-minimates/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tones Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) the Expendable set is back in stock on TRU.com, I was able to put 144 in my cart before the limited inventory message popped up.

Punisher Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Wow, the new sets look great! Only nit-pick would be that I don't see a likeness of Jet Li in the Ying Yang (I cannot believe these names :biggrin: ) I hope Toll Road comes with the hat from the MAX wave 3 guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENIME_art Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Totally agree. Though, like I posted before, I admit it's because I've now seen the movie, whereas before I hadn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye's Junk Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Same here watched it last weekend. I enjoyed the wifey thought it was silly. Which is the point. She did almost tap out when Dolph killed the dude and called him an insect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Got the TRU set in today's mail (yes, that is what the listing is for) and the only compaint I have is that they sent two sets in a padded envelope that got crushed. Otherwise, it's a phenominal set and I love the price point being less than the LCS version. If I can, I'll post some pics later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Probably not the pic some people are looking for, but here's why I bought a second set: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINI_MYTE Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Who's gonna be the first verser to cobble together a Stone Cold Steve Austin custom in his wrestling attire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieFodder Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Who's gonna be the first verser to cobble together a Stone Cold Steve Austin custom in his wrestling attire? I know right. I totally want that but all the skulls will be a pain. I think GB Mayor vest with some jeans is the easiest QC. but you also would lose the bulk that comes with his Expendables shirt.

winkerbean Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Is there anything under stone colds bulk? Did'nt Zach say about something under his chest piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 He's got a shirt tampo under his bulk. I prefer it since no one else has that kind of bulk in the set. I will say that out of the two sets I got, both Austin heads were a little bit bigger at the bottom were the heads were against the shirt. It wasn't too noticeable, but it did look a little off. Next set of pics I get I'll have Barney and Pain under their chest pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I like these more than I expected to, but I wish they had used the sculpted flak jackets from the ASM lizard troopers. I'm going to have to buy some extras to swap them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMateVigilante Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Is the TRU set still not popping up in any great quantity? There aren't any on ebay. I'm hoping Luke will carry it as I'm overseas and can't order from TRU.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
