undeadpool Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Today at a press conference Marvel confirmed that Diamond Select is signed on to produce merch for the new event, they didnt specify what kind of merch but with them also name dropping Hasbro, Funko and Gentle Giant im gonna guess we can expect some Secret Wars minimates? here is the press conference, they confirm DST near the last 5 minutes Zach can you give us any info on what we might see? or is too early to say?

winkerbean Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Maybe this'll be wave 62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Maybe this'll be wave 62 Nah, 62 is AXIS, it's been all but confirmed. Back to SW3, I hope we get Machine Man. Hell, I'd buy a Cap/Tony/Spidey/etc with every pack if it meant getting characters like Doom and Spidey 2099, Machine-Man, etc. You know, I don't pull events, but since everything will probably be going on hiatus, I might pull this. I'll have to get the 40 Avengers issues sometime as well, since it's all one big story. Edited January 20, 2015 by Kostisfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohawk_Jones Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I'll have to get the 40 Avengers issues sometime as well, since it's all one big story. I would highly recommend the Marvel Unlimited service to catch up. $99 for a year for the deluxe version or $10 a month for the regular. All you can read comics, runs about 6 months behind the print release and a huge back library to read through. It is the best deal in comics IMO.

I have read them already (praise the tors), I just want to get the physical copies as well. I have thought of making an Unlimited account though, manly because I want to read comics on my phone, since they occupy you for a lot more time than a game and they waste less energy.

Zexion_Armando Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Excited for some more Iron Men and Caps lol. Best news about this is getting rid of 1610 and merging it with 616. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcg031 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 The possibilities of a box set are endless. A Jimmy Hudson Minimate would be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 First I've heard of it! If anything, it gives us a way to revisit universes we have not visited in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlushyFrog Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I've mostly stopped reading comics, so I'm only really wondering how this will affect my collectibles haha. Will we move straight to Secret War III and post-SWIII and leave all the Marvel NOW stuff in the dust? Hopefully we'll still get the chance to complete classic teams at least.

Valo487 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 From what I've read, some characters from the alternate universes will be staying, and it sounds like some of the 616 Marvel characters might be replaced by their counterparts from other universes. Any bets? I feel like Miles Morales will definitely end up staying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) First I've heard of it! If anything, it gives us a way to revisit universes we have not visited in a while. It'll be a good chance to round out some of the missing AoA characters (Nightcrawler, Storm, Colossus, Bishop, Quicksilver etc..)

I would think concept to production would take 9 to 12 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zexion_Armando Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Well, given how much effort marvel is pushing in secret wars compared to prior events, we mmight actually see something sooner than later, I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekker 42 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Battleworld scissors and glue. So you can cut and paste the characters YOU want to be kept around in the Marvel Universe into a scrapbook of memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
