MisterPL Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I totally caved and ordered a case of each from my LCS this afternoon. I usually get a 15% discount so the grand total will probably be $85. I'm sick. Sick! Is there a DEFINITIVE case breakdown on these things yet? I'm hoping to get all the variants in one fell swoop this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dockingbay97 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I think if you have ordered them by the case, you will get at least one of each. Give me an hour or so and I will give the exact breakdown of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Thanks, folks. This is definitely the place to go for quick service and solid info. My LCS owner told me these things were in cases of ten, not twelve. I guess he's mistaken. Oh well. More plastic crack for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Does anyone else get the release party Vibe I'm getting off the multiverse today? It's awesome with the news of the 'Elf Cylon' and the buzz around the cylons being released today it feels like it's not done for a long time with minimates, or is it just me? T.

Well, considering I have a pre-order, and no way to pay it off, I feel a combo of stress and happiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Well, considering I have a pre-order, and no way to pay it off, I feel a combo of stress and happiness. That's called "blue balls." And yeah, I'm feeling the vibe. 2007 is definitely the Year of the Minimate for MisterPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dockingbay97 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Interesting fact before I even open them. The cases are individually numbered on the outside - and not out of 500 cases but rather out of 465 cases. I wonder what happened to the other 35 cases of each assortment.

dockingbay97 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 The classic Cylons are little less exciting than the new style for me. That is strictly my opinion. Normally I would be all old skool but the new series is just too good. My classic case breakdown 2 Battle Damaged Cylons 4 Cylon Centurions 1 Battle Damaged Command Centurion 3 Black stealth Centurion 2 Cylon Command Centurion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dockingbay97 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Another interesting tid bit. While the outside brown case are individually numbered out of 465 cases, the inner boxes are numbered out of 450 and have a different individual number than the outside shipping box.

dockingbay97 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I am fairly certain that after looking at these in person, I will only be collecting the modern line. So I think I will end up listing my classics on eBay. I didn't plan it that way but I wanted to make sure I ordered a case of both to be safe.

I'm a fan of both series and expected the Classic set to be better as far as minimates are concerned.

Well, anyone can feel free to ask for some before I list them. I would rather sell them individually and not the case as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
