Glantern Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) Just goot these from my LCS. Here they are: Interesting Facts- - The Female hair pieces don't fit quite as well as the prototypes - The claw hands are the same size as normal hands - Beast features venom hands, as opposed to the normal hands the prototype showed Edited January 28, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks for posting the pics. My first reaction is one of disappointment I'm afraid but perhaps in the flesh.....? Maybe it's me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Darnit. I just found batteris and finished my pics, and was going to post them. Crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDurg Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Wasn't this set supposed to come with extra Skrull heads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J.V. Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks for the pic! But didn't they say the boxset would come with 4 extra heads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glantern Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) Thanks for posting the pics. My first reaction is one of disappointment I'm afraid but perhaps in the flesh.....? Maybe it's me? I don't think my pics do these guys justice. I really like them alot, especially Beast and Phoenix. My only real complaints would be the girls' hair, and the fact that Beast's hair piece doesn't completely cover the skrull face. But I really like these guys, and I need to find some permanent bodies for the extra skrull heads. The wolvie also reminded me how cool this guy can be( the zombie, AXM, and DOFP didn't really do that) Oh, and A.J.V., it does, that's the last pic Edited January 28, 2009 by Glantern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 GAAAAHHHHHH! I just spent the last hour and a half snapping pics of SI boxed set. I always hate it when somebody beats me to the punch. I'll post additional pics I guess. Dang Nabbit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I was REALLY looking forward to these but they seem to suffer from some bad QC =/ Unfortunately, everyone, they do. My heart skipped a beat when i saw my LCS guy Darrel unload them, bought them, took them home, and felt disapointment. We definetly hyped these up more than they deserved. I'm particularly upset with Phoenix and Jewel's hair, Wolvie's mask, and Beast all around. the good news is that: We get both reversible heads and all four of the Skrull heads. I bought two, so eight minimates are now Skrulls. Good luck finding out who, Minimate Avengers. And thanks for the batteris, BHM, but you're about ten minutes too late.

Bob Harris Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) Poor Twisted Two-Face. I was really looking forward to see your batteries, but Ol' BHM was way faster. Nowadays youth, all slow 'n' low. On topic: Nice pics and I still do want a Secret Invasion Wolverine! I really like him. Maybe I'm lucky and he's going to be pretty cheap in the Wants/Haves lists because of bad press reactions here.

Chronotrigger Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) I hate secret Invasion and skrulls with a passion, but I love these characters. I wish instead of the gimmicky skrull heads we would have just received these characters as they are with acessories instead of the extra heads. I would have much preferred a beaker/lab coat for Beast, unsheathed hands for Wolverine, and a flame base for Jean.

The lab coat is easily created, if you have the Wave One Bruce Banner or the Fantastic Four boxset Reed Richards. One of them is graciously donating a lab coat to Mr. McCoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-7 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 i feel like the SI set was a waste of money. The beast minimate is the only one i wanted from the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 cool pics guys, can i be a pain in the a$$ and ask for a pic of a skrull head on an abomb body without his bulky chest piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Hmm..i just thought of something that i forgot i planned on doing. Anyone else going to use an extra Jeanie for a Dark Phoenix?? I bought the set for her (not her SI version) and think a Dark would look neat. am i the only one with plans for this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
