warbunny Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 lurch, i see you like eccentric kubs. muscles, big, skinnie? Quote
Cappy Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 The Spawn Kubs look pretty cool! Having said that, I must admit to owning a few Kubricks. But really it's only because of the licensing -- if Minimates came in all the varieties that Kubricks did, I would own naught but 'mates! Quote
Fujis Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I think they look pretty good, especially Violator and Tremor (I think that's his name) but I'm not much of a Kubrick fan. As has been said Spawn minimates would be cool. And each figure has a variant? Seems a little extreme IMO. Quote
jcastick Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I have one, Monev the Gale........i'm not too impressed with it, but I friend gave it to me, so i keep it around. Quote
Cyc Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 I'd never buy a Kubrick, they are really too much duded up Lego. At least with Minimates I contend that they're mini-action figures in a real sense. Not to mention favoring blindpacking... But for many Kubricks are THE block figures, thus first port of call for things like this Quote
Vash Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 are these really selling for 40$ or more i picked one of these up way back when... and just thought id look to fill out a few more.. or possible hack one into a minimate... but 40$$$$ thats crazy Quote
maxcarnage Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 sounds about right those were really rare and I don't think they came out in the states. I really wanted one back when I collected Kubricks you know BM (before minimates). Quote
TBT! Posted September 9, 2007 Author Posted September 9, 2007 It's a Jin Roh minimate... based of an anime film I believe? I looked at getting one of these but as you say kubricks go for silly money. T. Quote
Punisher Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 jin roh was a pretty sweet but viloent anime, i would love to have one of those! Quote
Vash Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 whats really funny is im not sure where i picked him up at... it may have been at tower records.. or it may have been at a botcon from a ... vendor there.. dunno mind blowing Quote
Dante_X Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 whats really funny is im not sure where i picked him up at... it may have been at tower records.. or it may have been at a botcon from a ... vendor there.. dunno mind blowing can you post more pics? with armor off and such Quote
Vash Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 a picture of jin roh and friends tetsujin 28, black ox, gaofighgar, and various master chiefs from halo, vash the stampede, nicolas d. wolfwood, and monev the gale Quote
Reideen1313 Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Like the Trigun and Tetsujin sets. I've looked at picking both up in the past - haven't pulled the trigger on the auctions yet though. I do have the Mazinger (set A) set that I'm quite pleased with. I've also go the Batman set and the 400% Batman. Kubricks are nice, but don't have the appeal for me that 'mates do. I think its a design thing. I prefer the design of the mate over that of the kubrick. Articulation is another selling point for me in the mates vs kubrick discussion. Quote
Punisher Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 i also have the trigun set, thats the only kubricks i have, i really like hoe theres so many different properties, they even have universal monsters Quote
maxcarnage Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 i also have the trigun set, thats the only kubricks i have, i really like hoe theres so many different properties, they even have universal monsters that and the detailed accessories are the really cool thing about kubricks. Quote
Reideen1313 Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 are kubricks the same scale as minimates? Kubricks are slightly larger. Quote
Shanester Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 This is a tough one to find, but there have been a few on Ebay lately. There are also other versions and a female Panzer Cop. Quote
Cappy Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 are kubricks the same scale as minimates? Kubricks are slightly larger. But many of their accessories fit MiniMates just fine! (Maybe a tad largish, but really a decent match in the world of block figures) Quote
Reideen1313 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Found the Halo 3 boxed set of Kubricks the other day at Gamestop. $19.99 for 4 of 'em - red, blue, green and clear - I'm assuming that's 'stealth mode' or something. I left 'em there. Hopefully someone who would appreciate them was able to pick it up and not some scalper trashbag. (<--- not an xboxer - I'm a ps2 man myself.) Quote

They did a very limited amount of them... and they will sell for silly money. I suspect that even the regular pack that Reideen saw will creep up in price soon! T. Quote
