DSTZach Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Picture is not accurate. Early mockup, both are wrong.
hellpop Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 It's out of stock, but TRU.Com has the listing for the regular Valiant 2-pack. Actually, I was able to place an order despite the status showing out of stock. We'll see if it ships. Picture is not accurate. Early mockup, both are wrong. I never would have guessed!
DSTZach Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I meant the figures themselves. Bloodshot is shirtless. X-O helmet is not sculpted. Will try to get pictures up.
youbastards Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Cool, thanks Zach. Are you able to confirm if there are designs/plans for other Valiant characters?
DSTZach Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 As of a few days ago, YES. They are very awesome. I do not know where that set will be offered.
Nervous Rex Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I meant the figures themselves. Bloodshot is shirtless. X-O helmet is not sculpted. Will try to get pictures up. you just saved me some money (on shipping and an extra pack). I cancelled my order. Wanted that helmet, bigtime. I'm sure I'll pick up the 2-pack when i see it in store, but zero urgency on it now. Also, I think shirtless bloodshot will look better, so that makes me happy.
DSTZach Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 It does look like a Viper helmet, doesn't it... Sorry, we had to execute in tampo instead. Still looks cool.
fwoosheyman Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 No helmet..boo-urns! I was buying an extra for the helmet too.
Kostisfire Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) So does that mean that no other X-O fig will get the helmet, or that this particular fig won't have it? Edited January 27, 2015 by Kostisfire
Nervous Rex Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 It does look like a Viper helmet, doesn't it... Sorry, we had to execute in tampo instead. Still looks cool. Honestly, with how form fitting his armor/costume is, I think the tampo will look better. I'll no doubt get it, as well as all the valiant stuff. looking forward to seeing more characters! I hope this opens doors to companies like Dynamite! who have a ton of possibilities for sweet looking minimates.
youbastards Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Sorry, we had to execute in tampo instead. Still looks cool.Is it a tampo on a normal Minimate head or a slipcover?

stack32 Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I understand using a tampo for the armor, but the helmet just doesn't look like it can be pulled off well without a sculpted piece. I guess we'll see what it looks like but my anticipation has dropped significantly. Though if it's a TRU exclusive that's only carried at certain stores it may not matter since apparently my local stores don't qualify.
hailtotheking Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Spoke to a helpful associate at Tru and he said in the system it's set as an online only right now
DSTZach Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Tampo on a normal head. Once it looks like they straighten out online ordering and/or imagery, I'll post some pictures. Valiant may send something out, too.
hellpop Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 Is the BD pack also a tampo? That one must have an extra head for the unmasked look.
DSTZach Posted January 28, 2015 Posted January 28, 2015 BD pack, the costume is peeling away, so you get two unmasked heads, one hair piece. TRU set has one masked head and one unmasked head with one hair piece.
Lobsterman Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 So we're not getting the helmet on either one, or that's the hairpiece on one?
DSTZach Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 No sculpted helmet. Two different hair pieces. Four different heads, one a tampo helmet head.
mav-man Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) wish I bought 2 sets! Edited February 1, 2015 by mav-man
mav-man Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I don't know why my pictures aren't working...sorry
