NorthRaider Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Silver Age Lizard is probably their name for "Classic Lizard": We'll probably see a "Modern Lizard" down the road: I know we've already discussed the disappointing lack of sculpted detail for Lizard's head before, but looking at this image it makes better sense to me now why DST went the route they did for this mate. Maybe a newer version of Lizard will be inevitable. He IS a Spidey villain after all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRGMann Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Yeah - i'm worried he wont come with spare arms featuring rolled up sleeves. Was hoping to use the WWII Wolverine arms on this one, but the colours might not quite match . . . Still - guess i could use the whole torso and have a slightly hairy Xavier. Lord knows i don't need 2 WWII Wolverines on display! (Image courtesy of Ivan - www.minimatedatabase.com) EDIT: It could work. . . sorta . . . What I would recommend is to fill in the t-shirt/chest area with a black sharpie, make it look like a black undershirt. I thing the difference in shade between the arms and head will be much less noticeable than the difference between the head and chest.

Mystery Man Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Has it ever been said what will be under the variant Thing's trench coat? I keep wondering if we'll get extra parts for a bulked up chest or if it'll be a blank chest or one with rock designs on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 or maybe Ben Grimm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 (edited) It'd sure be cool! I can't wait to get this set because I've essentially been sitting on the FF TRU set to enjoy them until a suitable upgraded Ben came out.

I might have to give that a go once these get released. or maybe Ben Grimm He'll be under both versions, right? I'll be ever so miffed if he's not!

groundhog7s Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 I just assumed it was naked Thing under the trenchcoat. What's the point of flashing someone if you have clothes on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 What's the point of flashing someone if you have clothes on? Are you asking us or telling us ? Ben's Thing is Grimm . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 That's kind of an annoying release date. I don't know about you guys, but I'm usually still in recovery mode the week after Christmas... and my wallet is too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 agreed i dont think that release date is the best at all -the before christmas release date was a way better sales move on there part i.m.o. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I dislike the later date for less than holiday reasons. I'm impatient and want 'em now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I might be wrong, but I'd guess that they release them as soon as they can and probably don't have a whole lot of control over when they get shipped from overseas. Just speculation on my part I guess, but I think DST is probably more disappointed that this wave is coming out after Christmas than any of us are.

MINI_MYTE Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 My comic book shop's Diamond delivery will be delayed 1 day, I guess due to Christmas. No minimates for me till tomorrow. Anybody else delayed a day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'm glad you posted this, because I just checked my tracking numbers from Diamond, and our cases won't be arriving until Monday due to the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
