616commando Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) for the version WITHOUT the choking hazard label. Out of the many...too many...mini posters that have come along with the new waves, only one doesn't have it. Production error? Any light to shed on this? As side note, I laminated the non-warning version. lol just in case Edited January 22, 2009 by 616commando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 The posters that came with the TRU Minimates did not have the hazard label. The posters that came with the Minimates that were released in comic stores did have the label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
616commando Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 awesome! I have a friend who thought the sticker meant they were getting ready to re-release them into mainstream stores again(target in this case). Exactly the opposite answer.

NorthRaider Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 The posters that came with the TRU Minimates did not have the hazard label. The posters that came with the Minimates that were released in comic stores did have the label. This strikes me as really odd and backward. You'd think that with the TRU minimates being in mass-market (and thus within the reach of little kids shopping with their parents), they'd actually be the ones that'd come with the warning label. Meanwhile I'm fairly sure that a lot of the people who buy minimates at comic shops are adult collectors, and thus shouldn't really necessitate theirs having the label... not unless we really do have a couple of nutjobs here who bite their mates for closer inspection...

boyd Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 My guess would be that a first batch or posters was printed and packed in the TRU Minimates before someone realized they left off or needed to add the hazard notice. The later-shipping Minimates for the specialty market had time to get the correct poster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Since when is a poster a choking hazard? Stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pioad Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Since when is a poster a choking hazard? Stupid. the same day it was decided that you had to tell the owner of a baby carriage to remove the baby BEFORE trying to fold it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
