Shogi Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) The perceived length of his arm makes the tongue look almost normal by comparison Edited June 3, 2013 by Shogi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Beast also frequently posed that way, and had long arms in the comic relative to his legs. Here's how AA handled the arm length issue there: http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=883&n=Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 With a stand peg in the foot hole, you can absolutely get a Minimate to crouch like that, no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT! Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I've not been following this thread closely but I'm getting a starjammers vibe from the x related set? T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Based on Zach's comment that the exclusives are "180 degrees from Alpha Flight", I'd guess they won't be anything so obscure or fan-favorite-y as the Jammers. I'm really wondering if the Faces of Wolverine set is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 id love a Wolverine and the X-men set not exactly a team since its students and staff, I just really want a Kid Omega probably wont be that though, my guess is an X-men friends and foes set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Except that roughly half the X-Men fall into both the "friend" and "foe" categories, seemingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geohound Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Clearly the arms might need to be longer and the knees would need to be able to bend back a bit further, but I doubt that's what's keeping a toad minimate from existing.

murderofcrows Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 what is 180 degrees from Canada? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye's Junk Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 It's a set based around the legendary X-Men softball games, obviously. ugh that would be the worst box set. Probably the first one I would skip and I have been collecting the line since the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 what is 180 degrees from Canada? Russia or Antarctica, depending on which direction you're traveling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heroic Slacker Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Russia, so Darkstar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 So not a team. Headliners are likely to be included. What's the current or forthcoming Marvel "event?" And does it include Wolvie, Spidey, Iron Man, and Spidey in another/modified costume in some capacity? Because that is my guess at this point. My second guess would be "Spidey Through the Ages." --edit: I thought the X-set was a retailer exclusive, and not the exclusive Zach is referring to. But. . .very possible I missed something here. There is Battle of the Atom, which is an X-over using Uncanny, All New, Wolverine And The, and Adjectiveless. But I doubt that would be important enough to warrant a minimate boxset, since its not the on scale of things like AvX or Fear Itself. Infinity seems more like that area. As for the boxset, I have no idea, but I'll probably buy it in a heartbeat so long as its not Lameverine flooded, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) I've not been following this thread closely but I'm getting a starjammers vibe from the x related set? T. I would LOVE it to be a Star Jammers set, but i think they might fall a bit too much into the 'team' category. So - from the hints we're looking at more of a theme than a team. Perhaps a comic wave to tie in with the Wolverine movie as YB suggested. I'd definitely be up for that! Wolverine (Many Faces) Iron Man box set & Wolverine comic set of movie characters? I'd be cool with that - but is it to Wolverine-heavy? Or is that like asking Chuck if there are too many Spider-Men?

karamazov80 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 That Jetfire Skystriker is pretty awesome. Weird that Hasbro is selling little girls' toys like the pony and Jem doll at SDCC, though. Where's the Strawberry Shortcake and Care Bears exclusive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 so Hasbro isnt doing any more Marvel Universe exclusives? I was hoping for a MU Giant Man, or Fin Fang Foom, or Ultimo, or even the Watcher...I still love their Galactus anywho, cant wait to see what DST has planned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 http://www.usatoday.com/picture-gallery/life/2013/06/05/hasbro-2013-comic-con-exclusives/2392295/ Gah! They finally make a great looking Baroness and she's stuck in a $100 exclusive set!? So probably $200+ at BBTS. Sad now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 This might be the first SDCC Joe set I seek out, Jetfire, Hound, and Snake Eyes in one set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
