AdyCarter Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 It works out at $4.3325 each excluding shipping. LCS prices will be at lest $5 a piece. AFX (click the banners) has them at $3.7491 excluding shipping. I can guarantee that AFX will cost more with the shipping on top though. Also perhaps you need to check your maths 119.24/24 = 4.96833 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 ^^^Oh, yeah, Deadpool? I used to (and still do) go to his site, every day, for HOURS. I bet it's an even tie between us two. But, yeah Danny, same here as Deadpool. Ya know, I was going to say Alpheon may go just as much as me... Heh, ok, us two read it the most. As a side effect, I know almost everything, like there were four Silver Surfers, the one with 2099 was on a dark green base instead of grey likie the other three, and the one with Thanos is the only to have C3 feet, and I believe the only with the <> torso peg, but I may be wrong there. Yeah, that last one is actually Ultimate Green Goblin, or at least my Thanos doesn't have that type of torso peg. Although, my friend has an Evil Ryu with that torso peg. I knew all that stuff too, except the 2099 base thing. I don't own that two pack. Argh. I was lucky enough to get 2099 from Aaron. I think I've traded for over half my minimates.

Alpheon Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Guys, guess what. AFX= (counting shipping and handling) $101.39. And I can't find any weird clauses or anything, so if I do either, I think it will be AFX. That's $101.39 as opposed to around $120. Sorry, stuckakid! You're right, Ady, they will be AT LEAST $5 at a LCS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpheon Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Other then shipping+handling, do any of you NOT recommend AFX? No delivery and such? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdyCarter Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Other then shipping+handling, do any of you NOT recommend AFX? No delivery and such? IF we disliked AFX they wouldnt have banners here. The only problem is their shipping can be pricy, especially for non US people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TITAN Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 The BSG packaging looks pretty good, when are they due out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpheon Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 The BSG packaging looks pretty good, when are they due out? Feburary 28th, 2007. At least, that's what it said on stuckakid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly DST literature keeps saying December recently... and considering those packaged shots they might be right.. OH BOY!!! So, that means I gotta pre-order these soon, right? *edit* A public apology for my posting madness. I am really, really sorry, and I will change my ways. 43 posts in less then 4 hours is ridiculous, I know, and I implore you to accept my humblest apologies. I'm sorry. Thanks for your understanding.

TBT! Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 OH BOY!!! So, that means I gotta pre-order these soon, right? Hey Alpheon, You just posted 3 of 4 replies in a row... and 8 on this page alone so far... You have 43 posts so far today that's 10 more than both Ady and myself combined.. Dont take this personnelly but try to lighten up on posting, You dont have to answer EVERYTHING that's posted. It makes it hard to keep up with threads that are moving if everthing has latest posts by one person. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Hey Danny, no offence meant, but maybe you could pop this in as news on MMC? It hasn't updated in a while. Again, not trying to offend, as I bet I've read your reviews more than anyone else here. Well you can tell my boss I have to go home in order to put up the news at the same time I post on the forum huh? It's on MMC's news page now. I do have some kind of life outside my website Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 In reference to the original thread topic: DROOL! Those cases look sweet! I've got one case of Modern preordered already from Stuckakid. I'd like to pick up one Classic Cylon (probably the chrome version), partly for nostalgia and partly because one was seen briefly in the museum display on the hangar deck in the miniseries, which makes them canon in the new series.

Shanester Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Yeah, I was on the fence about getting a case of Cylons, but that packaging just changed my mind. I'll be getting them for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Asylum Dude just posted some pix of a Prototype Modern Cylon it all it's pulled apart glory at the AA forums, so we can see just how they get that extra height. http://artasylum.com/forum/index.php?topic=687.msg6811#new Also this video of Aaron Douglas ( chief from the show) playing with minimates... Notice there are chief and cally prototypes Go take a peek. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 That was a cool clip of the chief I so want a Calli Minimate. Mine! Mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Donster Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Nice pics, so is everyone recommending Stuckakid or AFX for the preordering? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpheon Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I think it's whatever you find is cheaper for you at your location, Donster. I happen to find AFX is more convenient for me, but I know there are some loyal stuckakidevotees who are willing to order from them no matter what the cost.

I happen to find AFX is more convenient for me, but I know there are some loyal stuckakidevotees who are willing to order from them no matter what the cost. I ordered Stuckakid, and you really should, unless the price difference is very big. They are really good, and help us out whenever possible. I already (finally ) ordered my case of Moderns, and wish I could get a second case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Stuckakid for me too. They're unbelievably helpful especially on shipping. Whereas AFX charge through the nose on international shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Got to save my pennies. I've ordered so many I think I have enough to raid chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Donster Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Thanks for the advice gang, much appreciated. Debating on if I should order just before the holidays or right after. I have a little extra money tucked away, but like anything, I keep waiting for that other shoe to fall I definately like the Kubrick like packaging of these though, I just have the C3/LOTR flashbacks that keep me from fully committing to these It was definately refreshing to seeing the Chief playing with them(crosses fingers), maybe these will be more successful as a line.

Cappy Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I know there's been speculation on when we are getting theses and I dont know if anyone's posted this yet but according to the DST site estimated Availability Date is 12/26/2006 for the Cylons. Any further confirmation on this? Because if it's a real date, and the West Coast gets their stuff a week early, we could be seeing Cylons in just over a week! :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dockingbay97 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 I am getting my two cases of Cylons this Weds through my Seattle comic shop so keep an eye peeled out the rest of you west coasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
