Valo487 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 San Diego Comic Con is rapidly approaching, and DST always has at least one Marvel exclusive for the show, but so far I haven't heard even a hint of what it might be, Zack hasn't alluded to one that I've seen anywhere. What do you guys think/hope it might be, and if Zack is reading this, do you know when we might find out? If memory serves correctly, the last few years it has been tied into a recent development in the comics, like a storyline or new team, AVX and Future Foundation for example. But nothing is jumping out at me for this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 There probably wasn't enough lead time, but I would love an Original Sin boxset with The Watcher. It will probably be 4 variations of Deadpool dressed like the Wrecking Crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Zach has talked about some X-Men box sets this year (back when we were still trying to figure out the 59 line-up) and did say something about an updated X-Villain. I'm hoping for either a 2013 Uncanny Set (Cyclops, Magik, Magneto, Emma) or an X-villains set (Apocalypse, Stryfe, Bishop, Bastion). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I'm hoping for a Star Trek 4-pack but as far as Marvel goes, I can't think of anything that I'd want to see other than sets that complement previous releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 No Star Trek this year. Marvel set is actually not tired to current storylines. Walking Dead set will spark a lot of discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Hmmm...Zach already confirmed that the WD superhero cover isn't going to happen, so the only thing I can think of to "spark a lot of discussion" is either a.) direct reissues of previous 'mates, especially if they are TRU exclusives b.) a black & white set of previously released color WD 'mates c.) "alternate reality" set with tv show exclusive characters in comic book form. d.) An all Riot Armor or prison clothing set!

Valo487 Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 Will there be exclusives for Alien, Tarantino, or View Askew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Who'd be in your ST 4 pack ? Probably enough TNG-era crewmembers and accessories to encourage multiple purchases allowing collectors to finish off a crew. Maybe an alien army-builder. Nothing specific.

Zylek Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Marvel not tied to current storylines...so no Watcher I would assume A comic GOTG box set would be nice and timed nicely for SDCC. Agents of Shield box would be great as well. If it is X-men related I'm kinda bummed it's not from the current storyline because Xface Cyke, new costume Emma, new costume Magik and an x-23 to match the all new x-men wave would be awesome!

Same figures, new packaging? I'm all for that. Call it "Best of TWD." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 One of the things that Chuck mentioned candidly at the C2E2 meetup was that they had wanted to do a classic GOTG set, but Marvel said no as to not cause brand confusion with the new movie. Disappointing, but it makes sense from a commercial standpoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 If its DnA GotG, I'll be happy. Or more Spidey villains. But if its another damned Deadpool set, I'll throw myself off a building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Like Chuck said, we can't make GOTG comic Minimates while there's a movie on. Marvel is promoting the movie and only licensing movie merchandise. Maybe once the embargo lifts and everyone is a superstar. There will be a View Askew two-pack, but not through us. There will also be two giveaways, one at our both and one elsewhere, property to be announced. Some will like the TWD set, some will not. Rocco might not.
