JeffBohn Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) It took me to the third wave, but I'm finally getting into these. I like the variety of characters available, but I think it may be frustrating trying to complete anything. So far I'm going to probably grab the Masters of the Universe and the TMNT 'Mirage' style figures. Would probably grab the Futurama figures if I ran across them again. Aliens, Star Trek and Terminator I'm perfectly happy with the Minimates I have. Will pick and choose across the other figures available too, Hellboy is a must buy, probably Kratos too. So, now that I'm trying to get the older MotU figures (only have Faker so far), where are people finding them? Wal-Mart availability seems spotty, between 4 Wal-marts I only found them at 2. I used to see them at TRU, no longer an option. Target and Walgreens only seem to get the Call of Duty (I think it's Call of Duty) or HALO figures. Currently searching for wave 1 and 2 Motu figures (or may wait for the 5 pack coming), and also Fry and Bender. (I did see someone state wave 2 has showed up at Tuesday Morning stores, may make a stop tonight).

Smashmaster12 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I've got a few of them: He-Man, Skeletor, Picard, and a couple of the Halo guys. Nice little figures for what they are, and the removable armor on the Halo ones are really cool. From what I remember, I think the sets with the mixed licenses are exclusive to Wal-Mart? My store only had wave 1 for the longest time, then skipped to wave 3 just recently, but was mostly picked clean when I found them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I have all of Series 1 and everything from 2 except Kirk and Spock. I didn't know Series 3 was out yet. My closest Wal-mart has never stocked anything beyond 1 and even had them on clearance for a few weeks during their most recent reset. They're back at full price now but it looks like the pegs are just for Halo and CoD. I've also found these at Meijer, finally scored a Teela there a few weeks ago.

JeffBohn Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 (edited) I did find Fry and Bender at Tuesday Morning for $2.99 each. Also found wave 1 minus the two MotU figures I wanted at a Walmart. And a Beast Man at Meijer. Edited September 14, 2018 by JeffBohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambitron Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Loving the MOTU figures. Missing Teela though. I picked up the Trek and Aliens guys also. Also excited for Hellboy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffBohn Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 Haven’t seen any wave 4 yet. Did find a couple Skeletors at an out of the way Wal-Mart. Just need Teela and He-Man now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I grabbed a couple xenos awhile back. They're no Minimates, but they're still pretty awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 It's too bad the Xenos were so hard to find, I suspect many collectors would have liked to get multiple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Hellboy is orderable on Amazon with a shipping date TBD. If you have Prime it's probably worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) Damn - the MotU line is starting to fill out nicely. What I wouldn't give for Minimates of MotU characters... Seriously thinking about jumping ship for these. EDIT: Damn - looks like Stratos, ScareGlow, Evil-Lyn and Man-at-Arms aren't getting made Edited December 21, 2018 by Nessex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffBohn Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 Wave 4, the Wind Raider, and the Masters of the Universe 5 pack are starting to show up at Wal-Marts. I haven't found Evil-Lyn or Hellboy yet, but have seen the rest of Wave 4, and only seen reports and shelf tags for the Wind Raider and 5 pack.
