AdyCarter Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 As per http://artasylum.com/forum/index.php?topic...msg3386#msg3386 I found the Speed Racer mini-mates just last night at the TRU where I live(Downers Grove,IL), they were in the action figure section. I ordered these for the comic store that I manage, but they were SO Lips sealed COOL that I bought them at TRU!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Ooooh something for me to look for when I am in the States Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Damn I may have just missed them, I was there just a couple days ago. I ordered a case so I'm mulling over going to a TRU to pick them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 They are out! Sadly my dig cam is broken and have to get a new one. These horrid pics were taken from a phone camera, but it's proof. Somehow getting this many, still doesn't fill my fix. Racer X's paint apps by the feet is sloppy but eveything else looks okay, he looks a little cheap. Speed looks better of course and clean.

Danny Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 What hairpiece does the good guy have? Is it a reuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 What hairpiece does the good guy have? Is it a reuse? I'm wondering the same thing. Considering its the only part outside of your standard blank mate, its the make or break on whether I get one or one dozen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 What hairpiece does the good guy have? Is it a reuse? i've been wondering the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 What hairpiece does the good guy have? Is it a reuse? Sorry to disappoint but it’s a reuse of Mr. Fantastic’s/Reed Richard’s hair piece, but in Black. Looks cleaner than the Brown/Grey one. P.S. Thank you for the MMC RSS Feed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Makes sense that it's a reuse. At least it's not the Juggernaut hairpiece again - that's been used almost as much as the NXM Jean Grey hair! And as for the RSS feed, don't thank me, thank Ady. It's all his work behind it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappy Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Yay, yay! Day after day, I've been staring at my John Stewart minimate, because he's the closest thing to fresh new fix I've got. Now I can go out and get the real deal! Can't wait to see how various mates will look zooming around in the Mach 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Nothing down this way. I went tonight, and all that TRU had was the diecast cars with the preposed figures... I was almost excited until I realized it wasn't the Minimates... I'll check back later this week. My TRU usually gets their trucks on Wednesdays, and have everything put out by Thursday...

Jatta Pake Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Same here in my parts of Los Angeles. No Minimates yet. Just the diecast cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
