groundhog7s Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) I didn't know which wave thread to put this in so I started a new one. Just got the e-mail saying wave 33 and 34 have arrived at BBTS. So let me just be the first to say 'Woo hoo!'.

Turtle Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) I just got the email too. A nice surprise, but I may wait to ship my POL until the Spiderman set and Wave 35 are in. Maybe... probably not definitely not. Edited March 10, 2010 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Whoo hoo! - got the shipping notice email as well. Hopefully this order arrives in better shape than my TRU order did yesterday - with the box crushed, taped back together and missing half my order. It's already better than my canceled Amazon order from this weekend. I have had no luck ordering things through the web, recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 But... I thought 34 was not due out till late April. After 35. I can't beleive that I'm saying this, but I'm a little upset. This is going to bust my budget pretty badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 I was expecting 33 to hit this week with them, but never would have guess it'd be both. I was certain that 34 would get pushed back due to IM2 stuff. Yeah, today was definitely the day to ship the loot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRGMann Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Funny, my wife asked me last night when I'm going to stop buying minimates... guess today is not that day! Thanks for the heads-up, I placed my order in a matter of minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3Dean Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Just shipped my pile of loot from BBTS after adding a couple more things, plus an extra set of Wave 34! Lately, it has taken them longer to ship my loot, but hopefully they will be able to get to it soon. I know I took a risk adding to the order rather than shipping "as is" but that's the best way to take advantage of the Pile of Loot! Can't wait to see these in person. Also have a couple Excalibur Phoenix variants from Luke's Toy Store on order. I thought only the variant would come with the stand so I bought an extra for Dark Phoenix. Since it looks like either Rachel comes with the stand I could have saved my money. Oh well, at least I will have two sets of the Excalibur team.. Bring on Meggan and a new Nightcrawler!

Lobsterman Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) I wonder why they decided to flip the dates for 34 and 35 back around? Maybe they're trying to avoid having wave 35 fall victim to "Iron Man fatigue" with all of Hasbro's merch hitting over the last couple weeks. It could be a smart move to wait until the movie gets closer and people start getting more hyped up.

battlecat Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Wow, a wave hitting seven weeks early... This is like the Bizarro Minimate Multiverse! I gotta at least wait until the Spidey set hits to ship. Pile Of Loot, so great and yet so torturous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthFLGuy Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I went ahead and shipped these out. I can hold off on the spider-man set until the ironman mates show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyc Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 GACK! Isn't it always the way, four days to payday, you have enough for a single wave and shipping and BAM! Its not a single wave. At least its less than a week from BBTS getting them to when I will have money so my preorders won't get dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I am surprised wave 34 came out, especially as it had been pushed back previously. I felt sure they were cracking on with IM2 stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I went ahead and shipped my loot too. I was hoping to wait for the playset (which isn't looking too good now) and the Spidey set, but I just couldn't resist pushing that ship my loot button, it was calling to me.

MST3KFan Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Given my really wanting to get wave 34 to build my 90s X-Men I jumped on this. Hopefully it's legit as I've had times in the past where BBTS has claimed to have something in stock but it took forever for it to enter their warehouse as they put it.

fwoosheyman Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Well after a lousy day at work, coming home to this news was a surprisingly good end to the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabait1020 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 ordered mine! thanks for the heads up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Same here. Just wish I could have opted out of having to buy that cruddy looking white venom/female goblin pack. Maybe that goblin-glider can work with my Green Goblin, though. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rx78jj Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Shipped mine today as well, should have waited to ship my Hot Toys Blade figure though, aw well. I'm just happy that I am going to receive more minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 (edited) Can't wait to see these in person. Also have a couple Excalibur Phoenix variants from Luke's Toy Store on order. I thought only the variant would come with the stand so I bought an extra for Dark Phoenix. Since it looks like either Rachel comes with the stand I could have saved my money. Oh well, at least I will have two sets of the Excalibur team.. I was pretty certain that the regular Rachel Grey didn't come with a Phoenix Raptor effect. I'm sure i rmember them saying she wouldn't have one? Has this changed? Can someone confirm this either way when they have her in hand? Cause if she does, i'm gonna have to get myself a few spares as i missed out on getting extra 'Hound' Rachels at Lukes! Bring on Meggan and a new Nightcrawler! HELL YES!!!

Chronotrigger Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Went to go order but hesitated because of the ridiculous shipping. AFX is even worse. I want some phoenix stands, but I don't want to buy the whole pack just to get one part. I hate Rachel... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavehawk78 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I shipped my loot too......I've got series 31, 32, 33, and 34 coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaginCajun713 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I was going to use the $33 credit I have at my LCS to pick up 33 and I thought 34 was a ways off. AHHHHHUHUHUHUHUHUGH! I don't know what to do. $55 would KILL me right now, but I really want these and then I'd save on shipping rather than buying them separately. I might crack and buy these from them now. I guess I'll pass on the TRU wave for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
