Mamba Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Has anyone seen these? They come in Vending machines, are about 50 cents each, with a giant head serving as the capsule, holding the body inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Yeah - they have them at my LCS. The capsual is a little bigger than a ping-pong ball. I think the machine had Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Wolverine, Spiderman and possibly Thor? I *almost* bought one, but decided that i didn't need anymore clutter at home. I'm happy to pick some up for anyone else though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Minimate Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I got one just for the fun of it because I only go to US once per year and I got the Wolverine one. It's pretty cute, but there isn't very much to it and the paint is quite off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I have Thor and Spidey (Spidey was vending machine. I actually got two of him, and traded for a Thor at the desk. Why does EVERY company think everyone likes Pete THAT much?!?!?!?!) sitting on my shelf. They're adorable, especially next to my (don't hit me please) Blammoid Hal Jordan. If i ever see a set again, i'll try for Cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I have the Green Goblin, his glider is very compatible with Minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) Green Whaaaaa? Haven't seen them yet. Is he from a different series? Could you post a pic? EDIT: We are talking about these guys , are't we? http://www.gumball.com/images/stamps/marve...end-figures.gif Edited September 28, 2010 by Nessex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzle Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I think the Green Goblin being spoken of is from the figure factory line. A good friend of mine is the product manager for the Marvel Build-A-Figures that are in the vending machines and while wave 2 is being worked on, it's far from being available - and GG isn't one of the charcaters!

youbastards Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) There is another line of 'buildable figures', similar to the Figure Factory line, but not nearly as detailed. These are cheap, gumball machine style toys. I have a few extra Goblin Gliders, if anyone wants one, just PM me.

DarkRedShadow Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I got the hulk from a vending machiene at my local walmart hes pretty cool.I love the idea of the figures with the open the head and find a body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzle Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Oh cool, I have not seen the figures the glider came from - what other charcaters are available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
