TENIME_art Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Now we're all out of asterisks. Everyone else will have to wait until we restock next week to do any curses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Hey Luke, do you think maybe before you put up the SDCC preorders, you could give the board a little bit of a heads up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted June 11, 2013 Author Share Posted June 11, 2013 He usually does, in the Luke's Toy Store thread in the Flea Market section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I don't know why I didn't think of that. Or the fact that he usually posts a heads up on Facebook too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDestro Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 So we can roughly figure out how much these exclusives are going to cost, but can we get a estimate on what the bags of stands are gonna set us back? Like is it figured as. 25¢, .50¢, or a dollar a stand? I'm trying to budget this years trip, and so far the exclusives look great, but these stands are what I'm really looking foward to. And I got around 500 figures needing display stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobsterman Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) Looks like AFX may announce their three exclusive sets this week or next, so keep an eye out. Three sets from AFX, huh?... Hmm... I think it's all but confirmed one of them is the fourth Thundercats set. One will most likely be a Marvel set. So what's the third one? The hinted-at color corrected (or not) slimmed-down Ghostbusters set? A complementary Walking Dead farm set (we still need Maggie)? Or maybe the "set" is the pilot Enterprise with that Pike?

Not sure if any will be available after the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Or maybe the "set" is the pilot Enterprise with that Pike? Two exclusive Enterprise vehicles with one retailer? That would surprise me.

DSTZach Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Ghostbusters set was announced, not hinted at. And I believe it will be offered to all retailers alongside the new Stay Puft bank. Not an exclusive. Stands will be $4 a bag, for 24 black round stands or a mix of (I think) 6 flight and 3 clear round stands. (It will say 10, but the Peter Pan base requires one of the round bases to work.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks for the info, Zach. For those of us that can't attend SDCC, are there plans to either keep the stands available for future shows or offer them to LCS to order, similarly to keeping the "Best Of" series available?

CountDestro Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Sweeeeeeet. That price makes it even better. I need to play catch up on some past waves so I plan to buy more then I have figures for. But if these are only going to be con sold items, I have no problem buying extras (as long as there are enough of them) and selling them at cost to those here who cant attend the shows?

DSTZach Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 A mix of flight/energy stands -- boot jets, Peter Pan, One-foot, two-foot, Blink and I think Magma. I am fairly certain we did NOT do a bag of 24 clear bases, but it was talked about at one point. And while we don't know if or when we will offer it to retailers, it will hopefully be at every show we attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 A mix of flight/energy stands -- boot jets, Peter Pan, One-foot, two-foot, Blink and I think Magma.This. Sounds. Awesome. I'll have to get my hands on a few of these packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pk13 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 And while we don't know if or when we will offer it to retailers, it will hopefully be at every show we attend.

I'll take the black ones. the flight stand pack sounds awesome... i wish these were included though. like pk13 said, hope these are available to other retailers too!
