MINI_MYTE Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I guess "flamming" Stay-Puft would be the likely candidate for a third version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 If you mean that you'll be uncertain of obtaining any SDCC exclusive ?.....I'll probably rue this statement but there has yet to be a SDCC Minimates exclusive that is 'especially' unobtainable after SDCC.

rsprin Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Particualrly if it's an AFX exclusive. Anyone want to comment on how much they paid for an exclusive web-spidey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Particualrly if it's an AFX exclusive. Anyone want to comment on how much they paid for an exclusive web-spidey? Nothing. It was free! . . .after I paid for $30 worth of other stuff, of course, plus their outrageous shipping prices. :sad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrobotC Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) I didn't have those changed uniforms in my mind as well. I realized it a few weeks ago when I watched the first one on DVD and the trailer for part two afterwards. yeah,i love the movie,but i prefer the original tanish costume,but the blueish is good too Edited April 2, 2009 by clayface1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) I guess they are holding off, so that they can do a couple of 4-packs for that movie, like they did for the first one, where each member has the Ectoplasm-shooting gun or whatever it was. I could be completely wrong, since I haven't seen the movie for a long time, but I thought only two of them wear those goo guns to coat the Statue of Liberty? Edit: did a very quick Google search and I *may* just be thinking of the poster, which has Ray and Winston with the slime gear and the others wearing proton packs. Also a GID Stay Puft seems really weird to me, since he's solid, and not a ghost... I'm sure the second 4-pack will have a regular version.

Ray and Winston were the only two equiped with slime-blowers. I figure it's inevitable that we'll see a full Ghostbusters 2 set. Plenty of room to grow since they all had new uniforms in that movie. Plus, it would make room to maybe give us a Janine figure. Edited April 4, 2009 by Cowblaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Not sure if this has been posted earlier in this thread but there's more Exclusive Ghostbusters Minimates! These are only availible with the Slimer Special Edition of the Ghostbusters Videogame: And can be Pre-ordered Here although it's quite pricey in my opinion.

Twisted Two-Face Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Oh bloody hell. Really?! I wasn't going to buy the game until it went on sale, but this is ridiculous. Those ghosts may only be in the game, but they look effing awsome. No way i can pass up a giant gator, a deranged dead chef, a...well i dunno what the white one is, or that awsome black one that i MUST HAVE. Dammit DST. I don't have that kind of money, nor do i need a bust/ecto 1!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINI_MYTE Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Arrgh! My head and wallet are spinning. Pre-order put in. These guys better be in the pack and not some lame mail-away deal. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 The link posted before was for the Wii Version. Here is the link for the 360 version, which is the one I will be getting. I was planning on getting the game anyways. This just makes it even sweeter (while doubling the price ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Wow. That's cool, but I'm hoping they're available elsewhere (though I doubt it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Jeez, I was going to hold off on getting the game until I saw some reviews, but this really pushes me toward buying one "blind." FYI, the Wii version is cheaper, but last I heard, is supposed to be a completely different game than the PS3/360 versions. Not surprising, if you know the graphical weaknesses of the Wii.

Jeff of the Miniacs Do you have a friend or relative in the states? If yes, use their shipping address like I did. My pre-order went right through. Another option would be ask one of our american forum members if they'd be willing to receive the game for you after you purchased it from Amazon.com and ship it to you.

Punisher Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Is this an Amazon exclusive? I'm pretty sure If it were to be purchased at Gamestop, wouldn't it be a lot cheaper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Googled and checked like 30 gaming sites with info. Yeah, unfortunately it's an Amazon exclusive. And it's being compared to the Fallout 3 and GoW 2 special editions. Apparently both sucked hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Harris Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I won't buy any of those games - and since they're .com exclusives Iwouldn't be able anyway -, but that chef ghost looks really cool! And selling exclusive 'mates in such unexpected ways might get us even more excited and let us speculate about the strangest things... I mean, even more than usual.

cdubya Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 What the Hell?!? Good-news for those that were planning on buying the game anyway, I guess. Some might turn-up loose on ebay, but I'm sure it'll be a scalper's paradise. Damn shame, these looked pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 I mentioned ages ago that this was the right time to get Ghostbusters product out, but damn. Minimate pack-ins in Special Edition videogames, who could have predicted that? It's simultaneously very cool (for the brand exposure) and hard to take (for the expense/unavailability in all areas). Strange times indeed. <insert gratuitous GB quote about cats and dogs living together> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
