WeaponX Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) These are out now in case anyone was wondering... continue the hunt! DST really nailed all of the Lost Tribe Predators for this wave.

TENIME_art Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I still haven't seen Alien Covenant at TRU yet. Is the hound really that green? I have the NECA hound, and don't remember it being that green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fwoosheyman Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Found them today in PA. Guardian is my fav in this wave, although they are all well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ufemizm Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 And Luke is out of stock of the full set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 That was fast, I guess it's because he didn't get custom cases. Hopefully Isabelle lasts long enough for me to figure out if she'll work for Kitty Pryde. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffBohn Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 Luke warned us about lowering the amount he was ordering in a different thread... "Hey guys, just an update that we will only have a limited number of Predator Minimates Series 4 available, as we ordered much less based on sales of the previous series. Also we are only getting standard cases instead of custom cases. Preorders are in our store here: Predator Minimates Series 4 " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 And that's why I preordered. Looking forward to this batch arriving. It looks fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 I guess I hadn't looked at Series 4 closely enough, I didn't realize the Cloaked Unmasked Predator was in two sets. That's surprisingly lazy and it's a pretty lame variant (Does that look even appear in the movie?) to begin with. No wonder Luke didn't order many.

buttheadsmate Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 'Menagerie' seems confident of selling them . His ebay listing http://www.ebay.com/itm/Predator-Minimates-Series-4-Complete-Set-/122568523696?hash=item1c89a73fb0:g:z7kAAOSwiQ9ZVHO0 is showing 113 complete sets in his inventory .

That might not be accurate but that's what it says. He's still sitting on 20-35 of the first three waves, plus TRU and blind bag sets. Not sure how someone could afford that much inventory and not have a wholesale account. But whatever. To each their own. I'm just excited to get these in my hands along with the TRU wave so I can finally have a nice set of the Lost Tribe that isn't $25 a piece and in the 7" scale.

jettstorm Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Hey guys, An older wave question here but I just received an order of the wave 2 blind bag Predator mates and I have searched and searched but couldn't find a summary that showed what the pack out on these were. I assume Hawkins is 1 per case and then 3 characters are 3 per case with the other 4 characters being 2 per case? Does anyone remember or know the case ratio? I'm going to try to feel out the figures I need and then resell or re-gift the unopened packs but I'm not sure with so many predator variants what the numbers are. If anyone remembers the order of the figures in a new case Id love to know. In case anyone is interested I got them from Amazon after never seeing them in any of my local comic shops and always seeing full cases online for over $100+ so I had resigned myself to maybe never having a Hawkins or the other characters unless I paid a premium for them. Well then I saw this https://www.amazon.com/Predator-Minimates-Blind-Counter-Display/dp/B01LF8ENJO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1498773051&sr=8-1&keywords=predator+blind+bags and at $78.95 prime it came out to about $4.39 per figure and since I hadn't bought any of this assortment yet it's a great deal for me. So now I can hopefully complete Dutch's team with the upcoming wave...so I'm pretty excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But here is the case breakdown. Hawkins 1 per case 2 per case - Mac, Cloaked City Predator, Keyes, Noland 3 per case - Berserker Predator, Shaman Predator, Cloaked Jungle Predator Edited June 29, 2017 by Mysterious Stranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 We still need a Tracker Predator to go with those hounds and a masked Berserker Predator. Also does Hanzo come with a shirtless chest block? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Got my TRU sets! Now I just wait patiently for my assortment from Luke to arrive. Man, I've been buying a lot of Minimates lately. It's like they come in tsunamis instead of just waves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 There are droughts for what seem like months and then Asia starts hemorrhaging plastic crack week after week. Maybe it's the way I'm collecting but I'm pretty sure it's the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jettstorm Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Hey thanks for the info Stranger! I was able to feel/figure out the whole box I believe thanks to you and I found a local guy interested in most of my extras so I probably didn't even need to do that since I wont have to try selling them online unopened but thanks for the help anyway. I agree we need a Tracker Predator. I would also love to see from Predator a General Phillips, Dutch in his red polo shirt w/alternate hat/sunglasses combo and cigar, Dillon in his white button up w/tie and khakis, Dillon (Jungle Entry) sleeved BDUs instead of bare chest/vest, Hawkins (Jungle Entry) sleeved BDUs instead of short sleeve shirt, Blaine (Jungle Entry) long sleeved BDU instead of MTV shirt, Billy (Jungle Entry) jacket instead of sleeveless, Mac (Anytime) w/hat and scorpion on knife tip. Also still wishing for skull/spine accessories and how cool would it be to get any of Hopper's skinned team to hang up or any of the guerillas. I know most of that is completely unlikely but if we got them it would make up almost every variant for all characters that I would care about. Anybody got a good hat idea for Mac? Predator 2 still needs Archuleta, Cantrell, Garber, King Willie, El Scorpio, Boar, Borg and maybe Tony Pope...and Id take any random gang members. I'm not as big on Predators but I would still like to see a Walter Stans, Nikolai, Mombasa, Tracker and a River Ghost. Predator is just great and this has been one of my all time favorite Minimate licenses. Keep em coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Some older figures, but I wanted to show of some shots I took at a tiny waterfall near my house. I've wanted to shoot here for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysterious Stranger Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I got out of work early and hit the closest TRU to my house. After a little searching I found all three sets. The Stalker has to be my favorite so far. I LOVE that helmet design. Can't wait to get my set from Luke's to compliment these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
