Nervous Rex Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 These are some of the best mates that have been done... Ever! Here are my two favorites. I think I prefer the falcon without his chest harness, felt a little bulky. I'll probably replace it with something, or leave it like this. This stealth cap may be one of my all time favorites, I'm so glad it is darker blue and has the straps brown( in place of red) this new helmet is beyond slick. The shield also looks great.

buttheadsmate Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 The Falcon brings tears of joy to my eyes & damn that Cap looks great . Lovely pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Can someone take a pic of Falcon without the goggles or are they permanently attached to his face? Or did I just miss the pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrClean Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I have a feeling this is going to be a quick sell-out wave. Placed my order for 2 sets with Luke this morning (along with ASM2). Can't wait to get them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmeaux Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nervous, are Falcon's wing pegs in his hands in those pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Can someone take a pic of Falcon without the goggles or are they permanently attached to his face? Or did I just miss the pic? The goggles totally come off. They might even be worth the price of admission. The only problem I'm having with my Falcon is that the left wing hinge is frozen. The right one moves pretty freely. I'll have to work on it (freeze/boil/whatever). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vox Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Anyone seen these in Comic Shops.. or are we looking at mail order stuff so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 They're in most shops now. RUN, don't walk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roccothegreat Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 found the whole wave at my lcs. they never have minimates either so i was excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nervous, are Falcon's wing pegs in his hands in those pics? Yep, they come apart and the little pegs fit in the back of his hands. They were designed for that purpose...... So I was told :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Rex Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Technically he kinda could hold both, as the pegs are tiny, but would look a little off due to the positioning of the hands needed to get the spread wing. I'll try it when I get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 It's like how the wings worked in the film. When Falcon was flying for distances, he held the grips on his wings to steer. When in close-combat, the wings lock in place and he uses his weapons (pretty sure he did this when fighting Winter Soldier on the Helicarrier). Pretty amazing that DST was able to duplicate it. Gonna have to turn to Luke for these next pay-day, so hopefully they'll stay in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kastor Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I can't find them in comics shops around me in CT. I called about 6 today to see who got them and none ordered this wave. Just getting into Minimates in the last two months when ever I went to the local shops they all said yes we have them and get new ones in when they come out, when I called they all were surprised and had no idea they were coming out. It was just frustrating since they all seemed to invite me back to get new stuff some even said to me glad to see another collector of the line come back we will be getting all the new sets. But they have not had anything new in the last 2 months. Luckily Luke has them so I put in my order and should have my set by Monday.

Zylek Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I just picked up my Winter Soldiers from Luke (It's nice being only 9 miles away!) and it looks like the Winter Soldier had another injury: Unfortunately there isn't an arm in there when I opened him. I'll have to hit up customer service for a replacement part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterSoldier Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I only managed to see the movie once in theaters (tragic I know) but was Winter Soldier's outfit really so brown/light in color? I could swear it was more of a black/dark blue, with the exception of the jacket he briefly wore. Either way, picked up Cap/WS and Falcon/Widow, no problems, no complaints. They look far better in person than they did in protos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Anyone have suggestions for a decent Jack Rollins head/hair? I'm thinking of picking up an extra Rumlow to build up the strike team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
