karamazov80 Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 (edited) Sorry to hear that, Crippler, but I've found a lot of great members like Groundhog, Minimadman, Buttheadsmate and others are still willing to help out without price gouging. Unfortunately, you are right in that not everyone is out to help their fellow Minimate collector, but surely that was even the case in the "old days." As for Bullseye packs, those aren't very pricey at all right now on eBay. Edited September 12, 2009 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modefan Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Anyone know the item # for the new wolvie packs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Crippler, I know from experience there are a ton of people still really willing to help out. But you've also gotta remember, money is tighter now, probably more than it's ever been. There's half as much spare cash floating around and three times as many mates. So getting mine for example would put a crimp on me, let alone getting doubles of everything. Just food for thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbpanizzi Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) So I found these at the Merrilville(sp?) Indiana TRU. Here is some okay pics to tide you over till you get your own. The case ratio looked like it was 3 Gambit 2 Barakapool 2 Ryan Renolds 3 Sabertooth Weapon XI looks like he has Wolverine claws with 2 of the 3 shaved off, but I don't remember there ever being a curved clawed Wolvie. The wolverines come with extra hands and WWII Wolverine comes with the pictured helmet, which does have a tampo pattern on it not sure if it shows, and a machine gun. Edit: forgot to mention that Wolverine has a tampo under the military jacket. The tampo is just a button up fatigue nothing fancy.

Lobsterman Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Bleh. I'm really going to have to talk myself into buying Gambit if I see him. Passola on the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Pity that Weapon XI and Gambit couldn't benefit from some more original sculpts, but given that this is more of an afterthought than a well planned second wave, I guess I can let it slide.

God Magnus Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I found these guys last week. Didn't realize they were that new. Movie Gambit looks like a frog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 It's not like I'm sticking my neck out here but I reckon this particular wave will show up pretty soon on TRU.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Um... I don't remember Jimmie Boy wearing a sea shell belt buckle. Admittedly, I wasn't watching his crotch much... prehaps Id better ask my wife. She'd probably know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Um... I don't remember Jimmie Boy wearing a sea shell belt buckle. That belt also appears on the regular Wave 26 Wolverine, so maybe it is accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr baghead Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Um... I don't remember Jimmie Boy wearing a sea shell belt buckle. It's not a seashell (although it looks like one on the minimate) it's some kind of "headdress" looking thing. He wears it in a lot of the promo images, thought I haven't seen the movie (despite being given a bootleg copy when it leaked on the internet, I was just too lazy watch it and now it'd just be better to wait for Netflix to send me the real thing) to know if its actually worn in the film.

bilbofett Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 It is a 'headdress', an Indian one. I think he wore the same thing in X2, when they went to Iceman's house in Boston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minideadpool Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I thought someone mentioned a while back that the MM&SW pack was released. Is this wave still not due out for a while? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minijeff Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I thought someone mentioned a while back that the MM&SW pack was released. Is this wave still not due out for a while? the wave that has that set and the xfactor angel/warpath, xforce wolvy/vault guard, electro/insulated spidey, ult hulk/ult iron man are due in this month yet...hope thats true!

boyd Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 It's not like I'm sticking my neck out here but I reckon this particular wave will show up pretty soon on TRU.com Oddly enough, the Wolverine / Gambit set just showed up on TRU.com. No picture, but it does say it's in-stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) I am going to hope these show up at my store tomorrow and if not then I guess I might go order them from the website. I would rather order both though so I hoep they put the other set up on the website as well. So the website lists the item number as 804482.

maxcarnage Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 i was at tru "taking pictures" and found these guys. i passed on gambit because he ok and i really don't need another wolve. i did get final battle deadpool and ww2 wolv. becasue while i don't need another wolve, ww2 wolve looks cool with the other army guys (platoon and such). dead pool is cool too. i have no idea as to what the final battle is but it looks cool. i have dvd at home waiting for maybe i will get a chance to see it? as mates go they are cool.

Modefan Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I'm surprised but I actually found the new Wolverine wave and Ghostbusters wave 2 at 2 locations today If there are any packaging completists - the re-released packs are slightly different in this wave - the backs have a different image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
