AugieWargo Posted December 8, 2022 Posted December 8, 2022 The packaging on these is superb. I definitely prefer this to the vhs style box sets. Quote
THE_CRIPPLER Posted December 10, 2022 Posted December 10, 2022 I am having trouble opening these. They have been sitting here for days. I just can't bring myself to open them up because they look so amazing on the single cards. This is the first Minimate set that I did not open right away. I think I might have to buy an extra set so I can feel good about opening these tonight. I would actually be ok with buying these as single packs for $10 or so each. Quote

I ordered two sets, one got here today, next set is due on Sunday. Glad I did. This set is banged up a bit. If the next set is better, keeping that one in package and opening this set. Quote

I ended up buying a second set to open. Fantastic packaging. Quote
Navaan Posted December 12, 2022 Posted December 12, 2022 Second set came in; still not perfect, but much better, so gonna have to open up the first one. Super happy to get these on my shelf. Quote
Lobsterman Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 Not sure how this scale would work, but seems close? https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/227685 Quote

nandoninny Posted December 13, 2022 Posted December 13, 2022 amazon had this thing at $35 for a little while and i bought one to see if it'd work. works pretty good as long as the minimate doesn't have any holsters on thier legs or anything: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08V39ZTTB?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Quote

HellfireSamurai Posted December 28, 2022 Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) Did anyone by chance buy a set of the Series 1 solely for customs or parts that might be willing to part with the green waist belt from Scarlet if they don't need it? Asking since I was gifted a set for the holidays but my Scarlet was sealed in without that piece & DST customer service said they unfortunately don't have any of that part available for a replacement.

murderofcrows Posted December 28, 2022 Posted December 28, 2022 I cant wait for wave 3 and 4 to be announced. Wave 2 can't get here fast enough Quote

Strider Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Zach, is there any chance of the Joe’s “laser” rifle coming in future waves? It was the basic weapon of the Joes in the cartoon so it could get a lot of reuse. Quote
DSTZach Posted January 2, 2023 Posted January 2, 2023 Not sure what Joes are in Series 3, exactly, but anything is possible. I just want that classic Joe helmet. Quote

Surprised they weren’t included with them. If/when you do the tigerforce repaint i hope they’re in there Edited January 2, 2023 by nandoninny Quote

DSTZach Posted January 3, 2023 Posted January 3, 2023 They were, I just don't know the full lineups, only a few. They don't always tell me everything! I haven't been too nosy about it since I don't know when we're offering Series 3 yet. Quote
THE_CRIPPLER Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 Any update on when Series 2 will be shipping Zach? I hope we don't have to wait as long as we did for Series 1 to ship. Quote
DSTZach Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 They are in the warehouse now, so I imagine it will be by the end of the month. Quote

nandoninny Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 This is exciting news!!! any hints or you still have no idea about the lineup for 3 & 4? Quote
THE_CRIPPLER Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 Great news indeed! I can't wait for my sets from Lukes! I hope they surprise us with who is in Series 3. I'm expecting Flint and Lady Jaye in it, Hopefullly we don't get Commando Snake-Eyes right away in this set and they put him in the following G.I. Joe series (Series 5). I'd love to see the Dreadnoks in Series 6 then if they keep doing it one series G.I. Joe and then the next Cobra. Quote
