God Magnus Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Went to Borders today and grabbed a Pepper/Drone pack so my IM2 collection is complete (until the rumored TRU Wave 2 hits)! Does anybody know a quick and easy way to get the silver off of Tuxedo Tony's legs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilbofett Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 How Long does AFX usually take to ship? I ordered back on Tuesday to get the free mates, they took my paypal funds but I still havent received an email for shipping. pre ordering w/ paypal, they deduct it automatically(regardless when it ships). I did that once and to add $$ to my account so I wouldn't get the overdraft fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andimus Prime Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 After a couple of weeks of regular visits, my TRU in Okemos finally got a case of Iron Man 2 Minimates. The case was fresh when I was there yesterday and I picked up and Black Widow and Mark II and a Warmachine and a Silver Suitcasturion pack.

Does anybody know a quick and easy way to get the silver off of Tuxedo Tony's legs? I just swap out the entire lower torso for another one with black legs. That's good idea, but I noticed that when I went to do that because I thought I'd never get the boot off the leg with out breaking the leg, that the black color is a bit lighter then the regular black that you usually see on most black minimates. It's more of a really dark dark grey color. So I just live with it. But if you don't mind the upper body (suit) be different then the bottom (the legs) it'll be just fine.

Lantern Returns Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Has the wave shown up at comic book stores? I know my lcs missed the last wave of marvel minimates, so I don't want to miss these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Binaryan Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 This wave does look nice but I'm not a completist when it comes to movie variations. I passed on the Borders exclusives but did snag a TRU Black Widow 2-Pack today, She looks great now that I've added the red widow symbol to her belt. I have a spare 2-pack if anyone is in need.

youbastards Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does anyone know if Borders has gotten restock at all? I'm just wondering if anyone has actually confirmed seeing new Minimate stock arrive after the initial shipments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does any one have a freaking clue if AFX really is giving the IM2 sets away for free? every time I check out it tries to charge me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takeittothemax Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does anyone know if Borders has gotten restock at all? I'm just wondering if anyone has actually confirmed seeing new Minimate stock arrive after the initial shipments. Yes the Borders near me got 13 2 packs in, with at least 10 of them being the Borders Exclusive pack. This was at least the second time they've come in, after the first shipment sold through.

luckycreature Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does any one have a freaking clue if AFX really is giving the IM2 sets away for free? every time I check out it tries to charge me. Your not supposed to add it to your cart. It says they will add it if you have 35 dollars in instock minimates. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Does anyone know if Borders has gotten restock at all? I'm just wondering if anyone has actually confirmed seeing new Minimate stock arrive after the initial shipments. I (strangely enough) can confirm that some Borders stores have re-stocked. How do I know ? Because I am buttheadsmate. Seriously ,this information was mentioned to me in a recent PM . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rx78jj Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Checked toys r us and lo and behold, they were there, except for the Black Widow. Bought the Iron Man armors but not the exclusive Senate Tony. Does anyone know what is so special about the MK 1 Iron Man in this exclusive set?

That and it's believed to be more accurate to how it appeared in the first film. Also it's pretty cool looking too. IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO The overall color might be more accurate but it's missing a lot of the little details from the first one. I still can't decide which I like better.
