Twisted Two-Face Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 So what your saying id that i shouldn't tell you that i do say "lawl" in real life or you'll kill me?? If so, i won't tell you that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpheon Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 (edited) I'm West Coast; obviously, no Star Trek Wave 5 for me today. Ah, well. ...internet abbreviations. Along with Starbucks, Apple, the Disney Channel and MySpace, this generation's lack of literacy will pull the planet down the toilet. Dear God. I mean, come on. "Lawlz"? Are you freaking demented? You take a banal, trite, idiot's compensation for not being able to express himself intelligently, make it a "whole" word, and add a Z. Then, theoretically, use it in everyday speech. It's not bad enough you use it in writing. My mother received a birthday card from a friend (the friend's over fifty). First "word" on it? "LOL." I agree. With great. Vengeance. Go read a book, or something!! ...all this coming from a black kid. Edited December 6, 2008 by Alpheon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Okay, i was totally sound and understanding of all of what you just said. I was going to say that i have friends (they're computer geeks... )who say it too, until i saw that last line. You know, i really didn't expect Alpheon to be a black kid AT ALL. I would have said white man in late 30s, but not black. Not trying to be racist, not trying to sound cruel; i'm just stating that i didn't see that coming. And can we please get over the fact that i said lawlz?? Thank you, and moving on. So, no Wave 5 at all, huh...That's a little depressing. They probably won't, but if they turn into GR mates i will be freaking pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxcarnage Posted December 8, 2008 Author Share Posted December 8, 2008 i called my LCS today and still NO st mates! anyone have the same to report, anyone have something different?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Especially curious is this post on the AA site about shipping dates. It covers everything that AA does, including MiniMates, and is an update to when things are shipping with specific dates for each. It goes all the way out from today through March, but Star Trek 'Mates aren't listed anywhere. The Trek replicas, UQS, and regular action figures are all listed, but no 'Mates. They do list Marvel, BSG, and Spirit 'Mates in there, though. Did anyone ever get a response back from DST? Did this series just get shelved with no warning?

captain_cbecker Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I noticed Startrek.com has Wave 5 on sale with a release of 12/16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fwoosheyman Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Well it looks like Star Trek Series 5 is out somewhere. Newforcecomics is selling a set on ebay. They are still listed as preorder on their website though. Star Trek Wave 5 auction w in hand pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mav-man Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 It makes me feel better seeing these are out, I was getting worried they were going the way of ghost rider & 24, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 So has anyone else seen these anywhere? If there out in 1 spot, they must be someplace else too. I sure hope so, cuz it would be nice to get these before Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Just got notification from AFX that these are in stock along with ironman hostile takeover, and marvel wave 24 with trantula!

Trekker 42 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Just got notification from AFX that these are in stock along with ironman hostile takeover, and marvel wave 24 with trantula! You're kidding! I though 24 wasn't avaliable until around Christmas Eve! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm more psyched about Hostile Takeover. That looked kick-ass. I think they had those prepared before the intended release date, though. In that mega-value-pack that came with the set, delivery showed 2-3 days. The set alone was 1-2 weeks. Weird, or early for lucky, rich bastards?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxcarnage Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Just got notification from AFX that these are in stock along with ironman hostile takeover, and marvel wave 24 with trantula! does that mean we will see them at our LCS this week?

MINI_MYTE Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) Ughh!.... Still no Trek wave 5 on this week's Diamond shipping list. Kill me now! I need a minimate fix soon or I'm gonna blow a gasket! Edited December 15, 2008 by MINI_MYTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 So I gotta know... does Kirk come with tribbles, or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I wonder if they would be loose tribbles, or a hand holding one, like Green Goblin's hand holding a pumpkin bomb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 So I gotta know... does Kirk come with tribbles, or what? I'm sure if he goes an see's Bones he can get some ointment and a inflatable doughnut for the command chair. All joking aside I would like tribbles for the minimates.

TBT! Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Just got notification from AFX that these are in stock along with ironman hostile takeover, and marvel wave 24 with trantula! does that mean we will see them at our LCS this week? Not necessarily, From What I can Tell AFX does it's own shipping from the factory and somtimes gets shipments at different times to DST. I'm STILL waiting on a Desperately Seeking Susan pack from them.... despite those hitting retail months ago elsewhere. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm STILL waiting on a Desperately Seeking Susan pack from them.... despite those hitting retail months ago elsewhere. T. I'd be worried, T. they took her pack off the site. I was gonna order one too. And if Kirk doesn't come with Tribbles, i'll make a baby minimate and tear it to shreds (no babies will be physically hurt ). That'd be the whole reason i'd be getting him, so if not it'll be a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hit Urban Outfitters, they have the DSS pack for 4.99 on clearance along with Duff mates. I got an extra set for that price Ughh!.... Still no Trek wave 5 on this week's Diamond shipping list. Kill me now! I need a minimate fix soon or I'm gonna blow a gasket! I switched up and ordered them from AFX since they're in stock - I got the ship notice on Saturday. Newforce comics has them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
