TM2 Dinobot Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 You guys can buy Minimates in a store? What he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 "I believe" a grand total of four comic stores here have at some point made the actual commitment to regularly order new Minimates from abroad to sell to collectors here. And to date this one store lastmaximal and I have been talking about has been first (and so far only) one to get stocks of waves 23 & 24. (One store --- which just so happens to be the one I first bought mates from --- sadly appears to have given up on ordering new Minimates entirely, one store appears somewhat sketchy on how updated they are on the new mates, and one store occupies a completely remote corner of the metropolis so it's hard to even tell if they're still alive and kicking, let alone selling the new mates.)

karamazov80 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I'm noticing something with my Mark I War Machine. In TBT's pics here, on Ivan's site, and in Danny's review, the Mark I seems to be missing a crotch slip-over piece, but mine has this: Anyone else notice this piece, or is mine a dirty mutey freak?

Twisted Two-Face Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yea, i'm pretty damn sure your's is just missing a tampo. That's a real shame. But then it has another one...so that is really odd...i'm not sure what to tell you. Looks like the machine f*cked up in production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yea, i'm pretty damn sure your's is just missing a tampo. That's a real shame. What is mine missing, TTF? I just noticed the extra that my figure had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just noticed the extra that my figure had. There's supposed to be a tampo on each leg near the crotch, to look like, for lack of a better term, "undies." I'm not sure whct you mean by "missing the slipover piece" though. I just checked MC and the Database, and both have it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I don't mean the belt, I mean the actual "big crotch" slip-over. Come to think of it, I might have taken a picture of the TRU version, which would explain things (I hadn't noticed that one and the wave 23 version were different in any way). when I get home, I will do further investigation.

Danny Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yeah, the one you have is missing the grey "undies" at the top of the legs but has gained a T belt piece. Does it have that on the back as well? Be interesting to see if the TRU one is different to the wave 23 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Does it have that on the back as well? I'll take a look when I get home. I'm guessing the wave 23 version has a 2008 trademark, and the TRU one has a 2009 trademark, so maybe that can solve this mystery. I knew the TRU version came with hands and feet, but didn't even think to look for other differences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I just want to say that Kraven is the best figure from either of these waves, and the fact that he peg-warms my TRU and is still available on TRU.com is absolutely criminal. You people should be ashamed of yourselves, not buying multiples. Shame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You people should be ashamed of yourselves, not buying multiples. Shame! We're um, giving other people the opportunity to own this incredible pack I've tried selling it for even a dollar on eBay and no one bought it. Let's just assume that everyone has it already XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 So wait, only the Kraven pack is pegwarming at your TRUs? Or are the Spidey/Shocker and Spidey/Venom packs feeling equally neglected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I just want to say that Kraven is the best figure from either of these waves.....

karamazov80 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 That is a bit like saying that the 'Titanic' was the best ship in the White Star Line Perhaps, but I really do love this guy, PowerHouse piece and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
