Jatta Pake Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Spotted the new C3 sets in TRU while hunting for Kre-O GI Joe Wave 3. I would never have guessed that C3 would return. The motorcycle looks like it would fit most Minimates. Link to Wal-mart. And I just noticed the thread way down below. Feel free to delete this thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bruce Highlander Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) If you dont put the black pegs on the handles, it fits in the 'mates hands like a glove. Thankfully there's a 'mate for The Texas Rattlesnake. Edited April 30, 2014 by Bruce Highlander Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Additup Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Toys R Us had the Wrestlemania 30 ring for 50% off. I picked it up and was pleasantly surprised. The figure likenesses are pretty poor, but bouncing them off those ropes is a lot of fun. Can't wait to put minimates in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeffBohn Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Supposedly the 2nd wave of these is coming out within the next 1-2 months. I'm done with the line though, too much $ for just 1 figure and a nonsensical playset I have no use for (Santino's Cobra Cage?). Also, poor choices for the 1st wave of figures. I've cooled on my wrestling watching in the past year too. I'm keeping the ring and that's it. Always wanted a LEGO ring, this'll do.

Cappy Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Some of the sets are nonsensical, yes, but the chopper and the ring? Win! Isn't that what we Minimates collectors do, pick and choose from various lines to get what we need? In that respect, WWE Stackdown has been a good thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Additup Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I've actually got two more sets coming from the WWE shop: the Cobra Cage and the Damian Sandow School. I got a gift card for referring a friend to the network. Are they ridiculous? Sure. But that's also part of the fun. I do understand the frustration for someone who wants a wrestling line of mini figures like Minimates, I just don't really view these as that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zombie Shakespeare Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 How do minimates look in the ring? Is the scale good? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WookieFodder Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I think the scale works with minimates. Today, ToysRUs had a window display of upcoming characters I guess. The Rock and a few others were in there. I debated smashing the display and taking The Rock, maybe leave some money behind... but I couldn't do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Additup Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) I meant to upload this sooner, but got a little sidetracked with other things. Here is a shot of the entire ring: Edited August 6, 2014 by Additup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hellpop Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) So is it Lara Croft/John Cena vs Captain America/Triple H? Seems like Cena and Cap are the more natural tag team. Cue Jim Ross: "My gawd, that's... that's Captain America's music!" Goosebumps. Edited August 7, 2014 by hellpop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Additup Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 It's definitely a Slobberknocker. The minimates used are indicative of when I took these pictures. It's taken me a while to remember how to post pictures. Think I have it down now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCW Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 How do minimates hair pieces fit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCW Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 What's that? Answered my own question, woot! Minimates hair fits on Stackdown heads if you cut the plug nub a bit. Hair is a tad big, but not bad at all IMO. Stackdown hair is too small for Minimate head. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Customizer Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm really trying to stop myself from buying these but the temptation is growing. They are a step back with regards to body design when compared to Mega Bloks Call of Duty but beggars cant be choosers and this is the only best articulated wrestling figure line in town. Jakks Pacific Micro Aggression was more to my taste but 5 pts. of articulation gets old after a while. And that Intercontinental belt....i'm a sucker for titles.

JeffBohn Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm probably going to get rid of mine, all I want to keep is the main ring part of that set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lopez888 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 (edited) I'm hooked already Hurricanrana Cue Limp Bizkit Unity... U sold out! U sold out! Edited September 23, 2014 by lopez888 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zombie Shakespeare Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Man those are some ugly figures. C'mon WWE get it together and hire DST to make some minimates already. How many crappy minfigures have to fail before you make this happen? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeffBohn Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) Lots of new stuff shown, plus blind bags. I'll probably be in for the LOD and Austin, and hopefully Ultimate Warrior is offered some way besides the ring set. http://wfigs.proboards.com/thread/310505/bridge-direct-display-dallas-fair Edited October 14, 2014 by JeffBohn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Additup Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I'm not going to lie, I want almost all of those new ones Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigvis497 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I really really want to like those and it's awesome they're pumping out so much product, but damn those figures are ugly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MiniFiend UK Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Damn I wanted to avoid these but, Road Warriors are killer along with Bray Wyatt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Customizer Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 (edited) ....oh COME ON! I've wanted well articulated 2'' wrestling figures for YEARS now (even before Jakks Pacific Micro Aggression line) and THIS is what i'm being offered? Efffffff I've got money in hand and i'm dreaming of buying a well articulated adequately *sculpted* mini wrestler line that doesn't look like Rumblers. I want to buy these. I want to pay for a mini hogan vs a mini macho man . I want mini Road Warriors / Legion of Doom. I want a mini royal Rumble. I want a mini articulated Ultimate Warrior! I just don't want them in this form. This is the ultimate **** tease. A part of me is in awe while the majority of me is flat out irritated. These figures are ugly and it's only the name brand (WWE) recognition that is making me even consider purchasing them (which i wont because i know i'll regret it). Dammit. This is exactly why Mattel / Mega Bloks needs to release a wrestlign line . I'll take generic Cal of Duty style wrestling figures that i have to customize over these. I really really want to like those and it's awesome they're pumping out so much product, but damn those figures are ugly.

hellpop Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Can't believe they made a Bad News Barrett set without his podium. No buys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mnemosis Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Man, imagine if - instead of unsightly holes - they'd just sunk some small magnets into the hands/legs/sides/back... that could have created the desired effect without hideously disfiguring the toys (though the face sculpts do that anyhow) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
