youbastards Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Hopefully, Magik, Dani, Cypher Warlock, and Magma will be following along at some point. Fixed that for you there. How about Cypher as a base figure and Warlock as 'add-on' parts to make everyone happy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) Just got my NYCC ticket! I'm looking forward to these sets. I hope AFX brings some other mates to the show. Wizard World Philly had a pretty good showing of Mates. I hope the NYCC retailers follow suit. I need to fill some holes in my collection. How about Cypher as a base figure and Warlock as 'add-on' parts to make everyone happy? Thats all well and good if you want to display Douglock but I want to display both characters. Id have to buy two sets. If I'm buying two sets, who's the army builder? Edited September 7, 2010 by Rheul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) You wouldn't have to buy two sets if the add-on pieces covered enough, or the parts that were still visible were plain enough. I didn't buy two sets to have my "burnt" Louis Tully & Terror Dog displayed separately, I just stuck random black Minimate parts inside the Dog. Problem solved.

Chazwinski Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 Pat from AFX tells me that we will be seeing larger versions of these pictures soon. Also we will definitely be carrying these in our store after NYCC. So glad to hear that, Luke! I always feel bad for not getting stuff from you, but this year has been a slow one for me and most of my must-haves were TRU exclusives... but I'd much rather pick up these sets from you than AFX.

Chronotrigger Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 what about the other AOA set. I thought they were both going to be released at NYCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthFLGuy Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 what about the other AOA set. I thought they were both going to be released at NYCC. It's going to be there, but it's not AFX Exclusive, but DST. Like how at SDCC the Xforce was AFX, but the 90s Xmen was DST exclusive.

MisterMiracle Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 I don't care for the New Mutants set and I'm on the fence with the AoA stuff. The AoA stuff looks pretty cool but I wasn't a huge fan back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cut2thechase Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I hope Magneto comes with both the helmet from San Diego AND the hairpiece. I'm excited for these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 I hope Magneto comes with both the helmet from San Diego AND the hairpiece. I'm excited for these! The Magneto I saw .....with the helmet...was perhaps one of the most striking Minimates I have ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 New Mutants are all right, but I'm disappointed in their choice of characters. I suppose that you can always buy multiple sets to make some of the others; they all wore the same outfit, after all. I'm sure there will be a follow-up, though. Warlock, at least, is a must. The only AoA 'mate I have any interest in is Sunfire. Those outfits are just so very, very ugly. I'll be at the show, so I'll probably pick this up and trade the rest.

I'm sure there will be a follow-up, though. Warlock, at least, is a must. This is a great opportunity for some (non-shortpacked) TRU exclusives. Warlock and Doug Ramsey would make perfect sense, though Doug would perhaps be the easiest kit-bash in the history of Minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 I might actually like my Karma better, though at least the boxed set has the right belt: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
