TENIME_art Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 God, please no New Mutants Cannonball. At least not before or instead of 90's Liefeld X-Force. I loathe every version of his costume except the 90's one, but I'd take any of them over the New Mutants one. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killek Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) As much as I would like to see a new Nightcrawler I think it's unlikely due to the fact that he is currently dead. I've been waiting for a new Nightcrawler and hope that one comes out soon. My little brother really digs him and I plan on getting him whatever 2 or 4-pack Nightcrawler comes included in.

I loathe every version of his costume except the 90's one, but I'd take any of them over the New Mutants one. Ugh. I think someone else already said something along these lines, but I like the basic, fairly iconic nature of the New Mutants outfits. Very similar (intentionally, I'm sure) to the original X-Men outfits. Would be nice to have them on my shelf. Regarding the 90s Liefeld abominations, most will stay hidden away in my giant box-o-Minimates. Never to be seen or heard from again.

Dio Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) Oh, Rob. -> CHECK IT <- Rob Liefeld created a number of characters in the 90’s. They all had a few things in common, they were all incapable of smiling, they all had big shoulder pads and knee pads, they all had a lot of pouches and they all had stupid names. Cable, Stryfe, Deadpool, Shatterstar, they all sound like named thrown out by 6 year olds having a one-up contest on codenames before they play “soldiers” in the backyard. The vast majority of these characters were abandoned by Liefeld after only a few appearances and other writers took over. I disagree, I think those names are awesome. Let's see the writer of the article come up with something better. Anyway, I can't wait for the X Force boxset. I hope Deadpool comes with another mask, and Domino comes with another head and hairpiece. If they do anymore Cables they should update the first one with shoulder straps, it's kinda disappointing that they're only printed on the front. If not, well, I can have a Hall of Cables XD WOOT! I just realised i can FINALLY take someone (Domino) off my Top 10 most wanted signature block! Haha, and where's Mr. Sinister? I would've bet we'd have seen him by now. Perhaps a save for AoA? I actually hope we get this version: Preferably without the goatee. Or with the goatee on an extra head. Hint to DST: package with brown Wolverine.

Killek Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 How are you supposed to tell he is evil if he doesn't have a goatee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 There are plenty of villains that don't have goatees. Besides, you can tell from his voice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDurg Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 There are plenty of villains that don't have goatees. Besides, you can tell from his voice Yes, plenty of inferior villains. I would much rather have a normal sinister than AoA. The AoA Sinister looks like a Marilyn Manson/Rob Zombie hybrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rx78jj Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 The goatee makes Mr Sinister, sinister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I have a goatee and that's what makes me sinister, also. And the evil laugh doesn't hurt, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 (edited) It's true that goatees make the villain. I once had a goatee and couldn't help but be evil. I was maiming and pillaging and the whatnot everywhere I went. EDIT: Woops. Wrong place. Edited June 11, 2010 by Turtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MST3KFan Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Considering I don't have the previous Iron Fist minimate released (I have the Power Man from an order a while back), I would definitely buy that set for modern versions of him and Luke Cage, the ladies would just add icing to the cake.

fwoosheyman Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 The AFX sets are now up for pre-order for attendees and non-attendees. They also have the 90's Xmen for preorder as well. Unfortunately their shipping rates still suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I have the 90's set up for preorder, and I am working on getting the other ones. EDIT: Alright, I heard back from my supplier, and I will be able to carry the other SDCC sets, but I can't put up pre-orders until the day after SDCC has ended. These will ship approximately two weeks after SDCC has ended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 That is the greatest looking deisgned set of minimates I have seen in an age (Heroes for Hire). I hope you guys (DST) are paying attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess there aren't any more "surprises" to reveal. Man, I was (naively) hoping they were going to pull out another X-Force set at the last minute...

Dio Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 When preordering from AFX, do you have to pay right now or when it ships? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbofett Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 When preordering from AFX, do you have to pay right now or when it ships? Using a credit card, you'll pay when it ships. if you use paypal, they'll zap you as soon as you place your order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
