jason4444 Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I have just started collecting the DC minimates and I have a few questions. I have always been a Marvel minimate guy but I'm trying new things. Side note, I have googled my questions and lurked here but I still have not found the answers, so here goes. (1) I thought the DC minimates line was canceled? But now I see DC Direct has wave 2 on sale for preorder at BBTS. Which I have preordered. So are the lines going to be the same? (2) Do they plan to relaunch all the waves with the same figures in the sets? I understand no one knows how long a line will keep going. Is the plan to re-release all the same figures in the same waves? (3) If so, will there be any changes to the mates? Are they from the same molds? (4) Will the old DC minimates be worth the same amount as the new DC Direct ones? Are they considered the same? Or am I totally off and BBST is just selling old stock? I would hope I have not created all this in my mind. If all these questions have been answered, please send me to the right place. No need for the internet rage. Any and all info would be appreciated. Kisses, jason4444 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) Hate to burst your bubble, but BBTS is just wonky with how they list stuff. DC Mates will not be coming back and their site will show them for pre-order for a long time. For instance, they showed the Ghost Rider wave for pre-order for a couple years after it was cancelled before finally removing it. If you notice, Marvel Zombies and Marvel Wave 28 are on pre-order also and will not be re-released either. That should (sadly) answer all your questions.

groundhog7s Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 There is no God. I believe there is, it's just that DC Direct and BBTS work for His competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
