Deadpool Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 At what point is serious medical treatment needed for this addiction? Probably that one right there. The prescribed treatment is to send me a sample to investigate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 They may not be for everyone, but the Thor army builder sets came up recently in another thread. I mixed and matched parts on Frost Giants to get a pretty good army. I've got some weapons on the way from brick forge to outfit these guys. Laufey has one of the waist riser parts to make him a more kingly height. I'm pretty happy with this little army. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirymate Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 My main beef with the Frost Giants, like the Sentinels before them, is the height. I know, I know, design thing, 2" size restriction, I get it, I do. And even in the movie they only looked about 8'-9' on average, so the mates aren't that out of scale for what they were suppossed to be. But when I think Frost Giant, I'm thinking big 16'-18' foot range at least. These guys were more Ice Aboriganese than Frost Giant and that's not DST's fault. Still don't care for them. YMMV.

TM2 Dinobot Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I think your issue is with the movie Frost Giants themselves, and not the scale of the Minimates. I think if any single Mate were out of scale, it's the Destroyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Yeah, the Destroyer is a visually cool looking 'mate, but scale-wise, he's really off. My main beef with the FGs is their lack of weapons. Accepting the scale issues, etc, I think the 'mates are fine, just wish they had weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I think I only have singles of like 2 or 3 of the army builders.......don't have the space of cash to go big on the collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Only army builder I have more than one of is Helfire Club goons. I needed 2 of them to flank Jean. Rest of the builders I try to trade or sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 All of the extra troop builders I get with a wave go into my trade/sell pile. The only groups that I have an army of are my Cylons and Viper pilots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I'm trying to find more AIM, Hydra, Skrull and Kree. Y'know, for any of you guys saying you don't keep army builders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I like to have two of each, to flank the leader. Super Skrull has minions. When MODOK arrives hell have two bee keepers. I have two Kree waiting on a Ronan the Accuser. My poor custom Von Strucker only has one HYDRA Agent to boss around though and Doom, but one Doombot to guard him. Now if you want to talk Cylons, I have at least 15 of those guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I could always use more Multiple Men, Skrull, Kree, Hand Ninjas, Cylons... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I think if any single Mate were out of scale, it's the Destroyer. Not if youre thinking of the comic version. I think Destroyer is just about perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Not me. When you put the Destroyer next to the 1st Appearance (Kirby) Thor, he looks teeny tiny when compared to a Thor with that cape. Destroyer just about tops my list of wanted do-overs. Him and Rhino.

highassroller Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) I try to get at least 4 of every army builder. The only ones that I have not gotten 4 of yet are the past 2 releases (Stone Men / Nimrod) I have about 16 Hydra minimates, 16 Shield Agents, 14 AIM , 12 Skrull, 11 Kree, 11 Multiplemen, 11 Hell Fire Guards, 8 Atlantians, 6 Omacs and all with accessories complete. I had to get them all hunting on ebay. I also bought a case of IM2 Drones, Thor Movie Army Dump Case and Cap America Hydra army case from Luke's Toy Store. I also have too many Cylons and Terminator Endo skeletons to currently dg out and count. When they all line up on a table with those foot stands, I am a happy collector.
