lordofdachickenz Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the info! I'm mostly looking at some of the building sets, but there were a few vehicle sets that I thought might work like the blok squad police car.

cylonchaney Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 ToysRUs in Vancouver had Playmobil stuff on sale this weekend and I decided to pick up some horses for my Western mates. I'm super happy with how they fit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr baghead Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) Here’s something you may or may not find interesting: Mattel’s Young Justice Figures are stilling to hit Wal-Marts and Target... they’re crap... but collect all 12 in the first 3 waves and you can build this: your mileage will most assuredly vary, it’s waaaaay too small for the YJ figures but at half the size it’s pretty close to minimate scale. YJ figures are $10 a piece, so this bad boys going to run you $120 when all is said and done. Thankfully I have a 6 year old nephew who’s going to love getting a pile of 12 “robins” so I can kind of justify (no pun intend) the cost. The figures accessories are minimate scale too sorta, so if you need a fast food bag, long bow, clear blue sword, or crap ice stick you can get those too!

Rheul Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Not bad... Ill have to see if I can snag the parts off eBay at a reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murderofcrows Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 If you are like me, you LOVE the Dr. Strange Minimate, but were disapointed that he came with no "spell accessories" no big deal moc, I just swapped some from Scarlet Witch, or Beyonder...you say. Well that is what I did too...until I found THIS... I think this looks more like opening a dimensional gateway....what do you think? This is a force blast from a Yoda Figure from the new Classics line. moc likey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Damn that's freakin awesome. Is it the Vintage line Yoda? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj87 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 that certainly does look very cool... though I can't think why a vintage line Yoda would come with anything like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Right. So you can pay $10 for 2 inches of plastic. *looks at Alice Minimate* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murderofcrows Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 kind of an obvious one, but one I have not seen here yet. Thanks to Target for the the 75% off price on the green lantern figure...my emerald gladiators now have a little ring power, to throw the smack down on evil doers.

Mirymate Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hmmmmm... So if I wait patiently for the Wal Mart that badly over ordered that exclusive emerald construct helicopter that splits into like 12 different smaller constructs to put that bad boy on clearance and I'm set. Thx MoC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I like the constructs for Green Lantern so I picked up the TRU Exclusive Construct Pack. It comes with all eight constructs found in the single figure packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The YJ 4.75" figures that come with the Minimates scaled Hall of Justice are buy-one-get-one-free starting Sunday at TRU. If you can find them the first two waves are out. http://forums.mattycollector.com/eve/forums?a=tpc&f=2361004165&m=3181035117&r=3181035117#3181035117 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 It looks like the first batch of 3.75" Avengers Assembled figures come with light-up bases that could potentially work for minimates. There is nothing in the sculpt that really defines the scale of the bases, and I think it could make a cool minimate display: Image Source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 After seeing those in person, I can attest they do look pretty cool. But for $20 a base, i don't think I can justify getting those for any reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 If these were pieces to construct Avengers Mansion, I'd be all over them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 yeah - thats $160 worth of base right there. Might have to wave till they come don on clearance. Also - do all the pieces lock together? eg - do i need one of ech figure, or can i find 8 of Iron Man on clearance and use all his bases to complete the circle?

Rheul Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 From the pic it looks like they lock together, one being male the other female. So you'd need to find at least one other figure to "mate" (no pun intended) the bases to each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
