undeadpool Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 oh alright, thanks for the clarification Zach, so wolverine will be marvel wave 52? and its TRU wave is...17 right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 TRU movie waves have no numbering. They are simply "Iron Man 3," "Thor Movie," etc. And yes, there is an army builder, although we may not offer it like standard comic army-builders, and more like Iron Man 3's army builder, heavy packed and shared between the two outlets.

groundhog7s Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 This is awesome news, not just that there are movie mates, but that the discussion can become toy related finally. Perhaps we should start a wave 52 thread when an announcement is made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I just now noticed Logan's hair has been scaled back. The "wings" aren't so big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh2382 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I had no idea this was even going on. My goodness, I'm thrilled! Will the "many faces of wolverine" boxset be kept away from this wave...or are we going to get a huge burst of Wolverine goodness in one month?

I think they might hit around the same time, maybe a month apart or so. We'll see, I guess. You know us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Not sure if this wave will be Wave 52, but if so, Wave 52 has a ship date of 8/14 according to the newest update. The Wolverine TTA set wasn't on the ship dates list yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Steady Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Just to make sure I have this right, we're only getting a comic shop/TRU wave of The Wolverine, and Days of Future Past is NOT getting minimates, yeh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Days of Future Past is over a year away, I don't think anything has been announced, yes or no, this early.

MisterPL Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 As I recall it was The Wolverine that was iffy for a Minimates line because of the tight turnaround, similar to X-Men: First Class. Hopefully there will be plenty of time for a line of 'mates from Days of Future Past because I'd like to fill out the ranks I already have.

Nessex Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 ***SQUEEE***I hope we get a Minimate of whoever this is: Madam Hydra or Viper, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wolverine TTA set wasn't on the ship dates list yet. 52 is The Wolverine. TTA won't be on the schedule for a while, if at all Just to make sure I have this right, we're only getting a comic shop/TRU wave of The Wolverine, and Days of Future Past is NOT getting minimates, yeh? We have not begun talking about DoFP yet. Not sure how far in advance those talks will start. As I recall it was The Wolverine that was iffy for a Minimates line because of the tight turnaround, similar to X-Men: First Class. Hopefully there will be plenty of time for a line of 'mates from Days of Future Past because I'd like to fill out the ranks I already have. The Wolverine series has been solicited to retailers, and is a go with TRU. I assume we're at least interested in DoFP, but that's no guarantee we'll get DoFP reference far enough in advance to work on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 52 is The Wolverine. TTA won't be on the schedule for a while, if at allAre you saying the Wolverine Through The Ages boxset shown may be dead before being solicited? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying it may not be traditionally solicited, and the Ship Updates are primarily for traditionally solicited and distributed items.

Punisher Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Who's this supposed to be? Because if we don't get a minimate of her I will be crushed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) I'm guessing that will be Yukio. Edited March 25, 2013 by youbastards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I'm shocked TM2 hasn't pubicly gone nuts over some of the 'hot Asian chick' Minimate potential this wave has. And I hope I'm not the only one who's hoping for a heavy DoFP line-up so that the X3 wave can be added to with characters that didn't make it into that wave.

TM2 Dinobot Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Eh, believe it or not, she's actually not my cup of tea. Sure, cool Minimate, but she's like Yoko from Kill Bill. A 'Lets just get this over with' fight sequence. Maybe it's that I'm just not that excited for this movie after that last piece of trash. Now, Viper on the other hand...
