My first reaction to the above was amazement but since I've had time to think (& investigate)perhaps I understand why ........& who .

youbastards Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Most likely B&W Aquaman or GITD Burton Catwoman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I was thinking La Borinquena ............but you're probably right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 YB was probably joking, but not B&W or GITD. Previously made character in new costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 No plans for a Joker that I know of. And I have a production set, so by end of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious question : Isn't the Wave 2 Vinimate based on the Jack Nicholson Joker or is that just my conception ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 I think that's meant to be more of a Marshall Rogers Joker, like the DCD minimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) Thank you ,I can see that now (In my mind) I was always looking at Nicholson's 'face' but the clothes etc. now make it obvious , Vinimates don't have chins & although I can now see the 'implied chin ' on the W2 Vini Joker it had never occurred to me that ,it is quite clearly, a Marrshall Rogers Joker . Many thanks. Edited October 11, 2019 by buttheadsmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 There will be a few exclusives, but I have not heard about a new full wave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 We'll be at Emerald City Comic-Con next month with two Vinimates exclusives, including a Green Lantern variant. http://www.diamondselecttoys.com/2020/02/diamond-select-toys-and-gentle-giant-ltd-invade-emerald-city-comic-con/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) I hope you do because it gets more & more frustrating /expensive to get hold of these 'exclusives'. Most eBay sellers will have multiples for resale & the going rate is 3 or 4 times the 'retail'. 'Exclusives', IMHO do just that ,they exclude collectors from collecting .

MisterPL Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 And that's what keeps me from getting into this line. I understand the necessary evil of offering exclusives to retailers to drive foot traffic but no one but DST (and WBCP, of course) is making money from something like this. Hard to get, very desirable exclusives like this are what make the hobby more frustrating than fun. Looks cool though. I'd love it as a Minimate.

DSTZach Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) OR con exclusives introduce new collectors to a line and promote the sale of non-exclusive figures. All companies do it, including many very successful lines, like ML, 1:12 and POPs. It doesn't seem to hurt them, although they obviously have a little more history and momentum. It's a variant, not a unique character, and Anything we can do to promote Vinimates is welcome. I will try not to sell multiples to people at the show, and If I have any left over I will list them in the store and let you know here.
