OvenproofBug6 Posted May 23, 2019 Author Share Posted May 23, 2019 I'm going to be interested to see what Guido parts are in each 2 pack. I thought of something that would also be efficient on DST's part in buying multiple multiple men. If the archangel/multiple man pair is packed with Guido's arms then you'd have the opportunity to display a Jamie w/o a trench coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind having multiple Warrens to update the wings on some of my older Archangels. I can't stand the wings on the older figures. Mine are constantly curling inward and forming a metal shield tube around him. At least I'll at least get some use out of those multiple Warrens! Honestly, I'd probably buy one or two just for the wings even if the two-pack IS Multiple Multiple Men. Having you tried warming them in hot water, molding them to the desired shape, and then shocking them in ice water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I thought they were supposed to curl in? I don't think I'd like them as much if they were straight. But I do like the new wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(also as someone pointed out, it wouldn't work as Guido has the wrong type of arms, big sleeves iirc, for jacketless Madrox) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, he has that annoying puffy shoulder piece, I didn't notice that at first glance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Those of you who guessed a Madrox 2-pack were correct! We were able to get 500 army builder 2-packs from Diamond. http://www.lukestoystore.com/Marvel-Minimates-Series-78-X-Factor_c_246.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tried to get alternate expressions for the 2-pack, but we would have had to order 3000 instead of 500, which was too many for us. We are very happy to be able to have gotten these 500.

stack32 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Kudos to Luke and DST for finding a way to do an exclusive like this, it's very cool and leaves open interesting possibilities for the future. That said, it's super-disappointing that the regular wave Madrox doesn't come with any alternate heads. Those kinds of extras have kept me interested in minimates and losing them, even for a build-a-minimate, seems like a bad deal to me.

nandoninny Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) ordered two sets. one of my favorite comic moments was in x-cutioner's song where he had the one man congo line going. i had actually written to DST about making an army builder pack out of this figure for shows and what not. cool to see my idea was deemed viable enough for someone to attempt. thanks!!
