S7EVIN Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 So after calling and calling my LCS i finally got ahold of the guy and he said he had them so i went out and picked them up here they are: The set is really nice but it has some problems... the first is that i spent 10-15mins trying to get louis out of the dogs body... i got half of him out i didnt get the legs out so i used some Mark I iron man legs for Louis... I had to use the freeze method for removing the dogs mask also... and i decided to leave my louis in one peice.... (now my dog is made out of louis' legs batwomans torso and iron mans head) The Good News: the set is really detailed first is the GB logo on the sleeves, it looks very nice. the second unique thing is that even louis shoes are "soot" covered.... **sorry im not an expert Photographer** heres some more pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninian Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I was able to get the head (mask?) off Louis by squeezing the mouth of the dog shut (not too much force) then pushing the neck against the side and pulling out. Kinda like a scooping motion, I guess. It didn't come out on the first try, but I was able to do it twice and it just popped right out.

Turtle Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Thanks for the pics. I wish I had made it to the LCS today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Hey S7EVIN, can you post a pick of Egon and Peter without their proton packs on? I heard they were removable. I'd like to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Thanks for the pics! I'm also curious to see what's printed on their chest block. . .if anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the pics. The last one with Egon and Deadman in the background is awesome Edited July 2, 2009 by the punisher=D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) We've got some shots over at MMHQ. And the pack is removable. The chest block is black with a little flesh color dabbed around the neck. Edited July 2, 2009 by drgnrbrn316 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resurrection Bob Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I swung by my nearest comic shop on the way to work and they said they wouldn't have these until next week. Seeing some pictures here is a nice consolation prize - thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S7EVIN Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 and a few more.... more... mostly of the figures themselves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Sweet! My LCS just got in a couple box sets today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kastillo310 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 They look great... I called my comic book shop...they just sold out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I doubt my LCS got any of these... TRU is probably going to be my only hope when it comes to the Ghostbusters. Good thing that all of the busters are somehow represented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Those are awesome I love those Peter and Egon minimates. These guys should be a big hit. We're not even getting the first boxset yet and already I can't wait for the second boxset with Ray and Winston in it (they come with Zuul and Stay Puft, right?)

murderofcrows Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Holy Lord sweet Jesus why did I just now think of this....Bill Murray Harold Ramis + Platoon sets = STRIPES Minimates! Thats the fact Jack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Ray, Winston, GOZER, and Stay-Puft. Ghostbusters fail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Gragh. Knew I got something wrong. And this is why I should probably not run a movie trivia contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninian Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) Anyone know where I can get a really cheap minimate for my terror dog? I am new to collecting and am only planning on getting the Ghostbusters mates (and Deadpool... maybe Back to the future...). I just need black legs and body, any head...

NorthRaider Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Since plain black minimates are actually somewhat harder to find, you can always try decontructing those single army-builder Cylon mates for sale at comic shops. Just strip the mate of its sculpted robotic parts (could be trickier on the Cylon mate) and you should end up with a fairly serviceable blank body sans C3 feet. Terminator mates could work too, but their bodies are more silver than black... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably have some spare parts I can send your way. Shoot me a PM with your address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) Bad Apple Comics sells a black blank Minimate along with a white Red Cross blank, buy them to support a good cause! Or you could take the body from wave 25 Red Skull in case you only got it for the head to stick on Villains box set Red Skull XD It's all black.

Twisted Two-Face Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Or you could buy Cloak ad Dagger, and have Dagger watch you mutilate Cloak and remake him into a big black dog of evilness. Just a thought...Can't imagine what you'd do with Dagger, then, though... I was really upset to know that my LCS guy forgot to order these for this week...until i saw that i spent $50 on comics and sighed a sigh of relief. And then i got the word that BSG comes to my TRU tomorrow, so my wallet and i had a good laugh over a nice, cold cola. The boxset looks great all the same, though, and i am really excited to get it. I'm one of those teens that actually know what Ghosbusters is, and actually liked it. It was fun and quirky, and the the minimates look incredibly fun as well.
