Samwise Gamgee Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 Are we talking about exclusive new 'mates? Quote
maxcarnage Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 http://minimateheadquarters.com/ said they picked up wave 2 at the AFX booth and would show more pictures later. So to answer your question, no exclusive the real wave 2. Quote
Will Work 4 Mates Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 When are they hitting the LCS??????? I wonder if FYE is going to carry? ww4m Quote
rodbender875 Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Anyone hear anything about Roslin/Zarek? Sorry to be annoying about this, I know it's the only question I ask, but seeing the prototypes was what got me into the line and I'd hate to see it die before they were made. edited for bad grammer....so sorry!

Reideen1313 Posted July 28, 2007 Author Posted July 28, 2007 Are we talking about exclusive new 'mates? Don't know - all I've heard (as reported on RTM) is Diamond told us that they had schlepped some Battlestar Galactica Minimates over the SCI FI channel booth, but didn't know how they would be passed out. We then braved the aisles and went over to SCI FI and asked... the very adorable chick (no, really, she was!) we asked said that they would be passing those out on Saturday. Quote
pickle Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 :o whatever it is i want one ...........or three Quote
captain_cbecker Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I have mixed feelings about a SDCC BSG exclusive... Don't get me wrong. I have a long list of BSG mates that I'd like to see, that aren't in Waves 1, 2 or 3. But I really hate when you can't buy the exclusives from the distributor and have to try and get one from eBay without paying way too much, as is the case with the Starbuck Toyfaire exclusive. Quote
pickle Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 maybe it is a simple black blank with the Sci-fi channel logo on it. or maybe even the BSG symbol. Quote
Rheul Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Any word on this yet? I've got my fingers crossed for labcoat Baltar Quote
cdubya Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Any word on this yet? I've got my fingers crossed for labcoat Baltar Are you serious?! I have no interest in seeing "Lab-coat Baltar" released in such small, exclusive numbers. And much less interest in dropping $20-$30+shipping to get one from ebay. I personally hope that he finds his way to a more "accessible" venue. Quote
Fizzle Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I heard that all the SciFi booth had was Cylons - nothing new or exclusive. Quote
TBT! Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 I heard that all the SciFi booth had was Cylons - nothing new or exclusive. Yep they were basic cylons BUT were single packed with different labels.... T. Quote
pickle Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 could someone grab me one? i will trade a McQuarrie boba fett for it Quote
Reideen1313 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Posted July 29, 2007 Hope you guys were able to pick some up for yourselves! (Nice how mates have become the 'hidden' exclusive at cons the past couple of years!) Quote
TBT! Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 I dont want to talk for Shane but my guess is that if any 'extras' were picked up there will likely be a giveaway contest or two for them at some point... lets let the con finish, people get home and the dust settle though... T. Quote

T. Honestly Tim, even if there aren't, you guys are doing more than you have to by hooking members up with the zombies. If you do anything else, it's just icing on the cake. (Hopefully everyone remembers that....) Quote
Reideen1313 Posted July 29, 2007 Author Posted July 29, 2007 These have started to show up on Ebay. SDCC Sci Fi Channel booth Cylon Quote
drgnrbrn316 Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 So for all intents and purposes, these are the same Cylons from before in a new bag, right? If that's the case, these are only a must have for those who seek packaging variants and those who missed the bus from before. Quote
captain_cbecker Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 That's good news. It really would have sucked to have another unique exclusive like the Toyfare Starbuck to try and hunt down on eBay. I got enough Cylons... I can live without this one. As it is, I know one retailer who still has the single-pack modern cylons from the first waves. If I ever need a Cylon fix, all I need to do is pick one up. Now back to waiting for my pre-order series 2 Quote
pickle Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 I sure hope the rest of us can get wave two at our LCS on the first, i don't think i can wait too much longer. being as how i mainly only get the BSG minimates, i am always happy to get more cylons in different packages. i am very excited to see this exclusive(well, kinda an exclusive) Quote
Shanester Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 Unless you are impatient, don't buy from Ebay yet. There will be some giveaways of these figures, sponsored by the folks at SciFi Channel. Stay tuned. Quote
pickle Posted July 29, 2007 Posted July 29, 2007 ah yeah!!!!!!!!! thank you the fine folks at SciFi channel ans Shanester for the heads up. Quote
