arnim zola Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 I had not been keeping up with these but they all look fantastic! I'm now on board as a pathfinder fan! And as a guy who hates 1 day exclusives causing incomplete collections I hope they follow through on what they said and make these where I can buy them.

Nervous Rex Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Anybody able to post a picture of the skull on the cultists body? Guessing the hood won't fit unless you cut the peg out (don't do it!)... but an idea of the head and body would be ideal. Let me guess ......... Skeletor? me too . And I know of one other member thinking the same way. I got two, one for old skullface, and one for Faker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know of one other member thinking the same way. I got two, one for old skullface, and one for Faker I just hope the seller on Shapeways gets around to making the chest armor for Skeletor soon. He said it is on his to do list, so I am waiting patiently for an update. Maybe if a few others pm him asking for one he will get to it sooner Oh yeah, I have two sets of the way too. I can't wait for them to get here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing the hood won't fit unless you cut the peg out (don't do it!)... but an idea of the head and body would be ideal. It doesn’t fit, the hood has a peg and the skull doesn’t have a hole. But it’s worth noting the Skull is missing a tooth so if you are trying to make Skeletor it’s going to be the Mo-Lar variant.Pro-Tip: Get an extra Blue Ghost Rider, his skull looks FANTASTIC in Isiem’s hood (and Isiem looks fantastic with his white hair so he won’t miss it) and that hooded skull looks great on Ghoul’s body. Ghost Rider skull looks weird in place of the cultist head though, the color of the robes makes it look like a bath robe for some reason.

Erik Mona Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Yes. If we order up another round of the promos, we'll ask that the packaging be identical. And it's looking like we're going to need to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 As much as I'd love a Skeletor (and MOTU) mates, I'm wanting to know so I can make a creepy skeleton hooded Death kinda guy. I'm still the guy who is trying to find creative ways to add more monsters to his collection, where my beloved Universal Monsters are the stars.

youbastards Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I would agree that just based on the number of these that have hit eBay, I also have doubts that the entire inventory was sold at GenCon, unless either Paizo/Pathfinder fans are extremely loyal to the Paizo/Pathfinder brand or these were produced in numbers similar to the C2E2 MMMV promo. Purely speculation, again just based on the amount that have hit the secondary market, but I think lost/misplaced/stolen inventory is a more realistic explanation. Does that jive with your thoughts, Rob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja Mate Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) I will say on Sunday after genconI called Scottys Brewhouse. And they said they did sell out of the ones they had Edited September 19, 2014 by Ninja Mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Ordered 2 x isiem and ghoul set & got my shipping confirmation!

Paizo can do what they like with these, they're their product & it's nothing to do with me how they 'promote' their product.....just don't ask me to congratulate them. BTW if 'promos' actually 'promoted' then we would,for example, be on Wave 18 of Battle Beasts by now instead of having a defunct line consisting of 10 promos & 12 retail characters .

Nervous Rex Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Quick custom using the ghoul body and my skeletors parts, for anyone interested. I sure hope I'm not jacking this thread up, but figured this was discussed, and also the reason I bought two sets. I think the body matches up pretty darn good Edit. I've been trying to load the picture but I'm not able to, I've tried about 7 times since last night.

buttheadsmate Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I can't compare the offerings? Why not...it's uncomfortably true ? Promos do absolutely nothing to promote anything except angst & if anybody wants to discuss that ....please bring it on Did the Marvel line [what wave are we on now ] require promos ? If you discount the Gold & Silver BS items then that line has been 'promoted' by just one 'promo' in many many years.......Santa Spidey.

Mnemosis Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Imagine you're a random gamer at GenCon competing in some contest at Scotty's. For winning, you get a little figure of a goblin. You don't know what it is, but you like it. You find Paizo, and now you're exposed both to Pathfinder AND Minimates. That doesn't sound like effective advertising to you?
