MINI_MYTE Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Very cool. Especially that GITD pirate ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 If anybody out there finds multiples of these in their TRU store (unbent) ....or a full case....I'll be indebted if you grab it/them for me . They may well hit TRU.com but the chances of them arriving anywhere unbent is unlikely ....hence my plea. This plea also includes the latest Halo 'thingy' (multiples). I'll pay you immediately or interest you in some enticing trade. Apologies for the blatant begging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Those are awesome looking, but I really think the GITD pirate ship should have come with the Flying Dutchman from Spongebob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 GITD Pirate Ship is a cool surprise - makes me glad I pre-ordered it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I still think that the Jennifer minimate would look a hell of a lot better and more accurate if she had the Shadowcat hairpiece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battlecat Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Still gonna get it for Jennifer, but that "phasing" Delorean makes no sense and looks smurfed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlushyFrog Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 Still gonna get it for Jennifer, but that "phasing" Delorean makes no sense and looks smurfed up Bah, yeah, I'm gonna have to get that Delorean just for the Jennifer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Okay, the blue jet looks very awesome and very transparent. The black one does not look transparent at all. I think I still need 2 black ones and at least 2 blue ones if not 3. I know y'all are down on the transparent Delorean, but did anyone think that maybe they're trying to capitalize on the "Trans-scanning" half clear transformers exclusives at TRU?

I'll pay you immediately or interest you in some enticing trade. Apologies for the blatant begging It's funny, I ordered 2 halo minimates and they arrived in a giant box. I order a lego set and its in a padded envelope and totally crushed. But the best part though was I emailed toysrus.com about the crushed box and said I wasn't happy and felt bad since it was a gift, they didn't even respond just got an email saying my account was credited for the full amount of that item.

MINI_MYTE Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 I came across some packaging pics on Diamond's FBpage. Didn't see them posted at the AA blog, so I decided to share for all those who aren't part of FB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Thanks for the pics . It's interesting that DST are hysterically historically accurate & have given the pirate guy a contemporary inflatable-beard-life-jacket (IBLJ)...these were once standard issue in the Royal Navy & it is believed that that is how one famous pirate got his name..... 'Blowbeard'. BTW what do you call a pirate in the sea with no arms & legs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 (edited) The first cannon shot from the British Man O'War hit the Pirate Blowbeard's ship's 'mizzen' breaking it clean in two whilst the second shot hit the 'fore' splintering it into a thousand pieces. Blowbeard became anxious & gave the order "Hoist the 'main-sails'...." just as he did so a third shot rang through the air & severed the 'main' at its base . "Heave to lads & hoist the white flag... we'll have to surrender to the scurvy dogs..... they're using.... weapons of mast destruction" Edited June 12, 2011 by buttheadsmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 There is a new blog post on the design of the vehicles. Some cool info including the design sheet for the pirate ship! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 There is a new blog post on the design of the vehicles. Some cool info including the design sheet for the pirate ship! I love these behind-the-scene glimpses. They should turn it into a weekly feature like the Q&As. It's good to see that large truck/transport/mobile-command-center thingy isn't dead. Wonder what APC is an acronym of? Acute Petroleum Consumer? Armed Prenatal Commandos? Alimony Protection Clause? Additional Pillow Creator? Accidental Pancake Consumption? Probably something boring like Armored Personnel Carrier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
