I was expecting to at least see the Deadly Foes and X-Force sets but with so much awesomeness shown I can "forget" about them for the time being. a Minimate monkey! I have to rebuy the same pack just to get the damn monkey?? That pisses me off The monkey is in the box set with all these 4 characters so technically yes, you do buy Jay and Bob again but you get 2.5 new characters.

MINI_MYTE Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Oh Alien minimates in the corner! http://news.toyark.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2014/02/Toy-Fair-2014-DST-Aliens-Minimates-001.jpg I see Parker, Ripley, the xenomorph and ????

Mnemosis Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 no, that's a 4 pack with Marshall Willenholly and... Jesse? It's been a while I was really hoping to see the XForce set as well, but then I remembered, this is a trade show, not a convention the X Force and deadly photos that are both already exclusives, this show is for selling product to retailers (for the most part) over the years, it has become a press event, but that was never the main drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Bluntman and Chronic. Yeah I think I'll get that set. Especially because I really like the Cocknocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Orangutans (like gorillas and chimpanzees) are apes. Not monkeys. Monkeys have tails. Apes do not. We did not evolve from monkeys. We evolved from apes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are really getting four straight movie waves, that would be... disappointing. Wasn't there supposed to be a comics X-Men wave in the works?

battlecat Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Well, both humans and apes evolved from a common ancestor that wasn't an ape (though it was apelike)... A full boxset of Crazy 88s is excellent, I was worried they'd be one per 4-pack. And the long-awaited Luke Cage looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 i think the marvel movie waves are going to blow through quicker than we think, simply because the films are all in a very condensed amount of time, we're going to see Cap by April i'd assume, then Amazing Spiderman 2 and DOFP have to hit their window in May, and then Guardians by August, which could give us room for a comic wave by the end of the year (not saying it will happen, but the fact that they have all 4 movie waves already at proto stage probably bodes well) having said that, im excited for all 4 movie waves and the GOTG one will fill a lot of my comic collections missing slots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are really getting four straight movie waves, that would be... disappointing. Wasn't there supposed to be a comics X-Men wave in the works? Zach's been laying the groundwork for this a while now, so it should be no surprise. It's a movie-heavy year, so that's probably the priority for sales. We've got the comic X-Force and Spidey-foes box sets coming, as well as (maybe?) a TRU fan poll set. I'm sure there will be a little comic love at SDCC; perhaps a box set or two. But, yeah, overall, not a year for comic mates. Edited February 17, 2014 by Lobsterman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkRedShadow Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Did they announce who's in the Marvel Best Of Series 3 set? yeah, it's being discussed in its thread right now. It includes: grey hulk/Iron man, Hawkeye/Antman, Spidersense Spidey/Cap and Luke Cage/Iron Fist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcansFury Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Since the first half of 2014 is all Marvel Movies, I'd anticipate the rest of the year being comic based. Wish we at least saw the Xmen comic wave. Guess we should start counting down to SDCC now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) I think six waves in one year is the most we've ever seen; that would leave one slot at the end of the year for a potential comic wave. I'd be surprised to see more than that. Edited February 17, 2014 by Lobsterman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) It will suck not getting as much comic stuff this year, but on the bright side I can spend that money on 2009-2010 stuff I missed out on and work on completing my collection.

battlecat Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 There's still box sets, from a quick glance through the Database it looks like we usually get 8 or 9 in a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
