MsMarvel fan Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Found the whole wave yesterday. I like FA Thor and SW Cap much much more than I thought I would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Yeah, easy to overlook that Cap for obvious reasons, but I do think he's as good as any other traditional Cap we've previously been given. Add in the jacket as an optional accessory and he's just super, thanks for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Still no wave 12 at my TRU. On the plus side, waves 10 & 11 are down to 7 packs left, so hopefully they will show up on the next truck. Although with the holidays done, it is hard to figure when they get new product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkguerilla Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Just a heads up: I found these little guys in Los Angeles tonight. Specifically at the store on La Cienega where they had just put out a fresh box right before I got there. Good luck out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think I'm in a Minimate rut. I've had this wave for awhile now and last night is the first time I actually looked at the packages and noticed there was an error on the back of this wave's packaging. I just find it sad that I'm at a point where I just take stuff out of the package and put it in storage without even looking at it much.

hellpop Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think that probably happens to all of us. One of the problems with repeat characters I find is that I'm just not excited to see them the way I am a new character, no matter how nice they are. So in a wave that's heavy on variations of the same characters, it's hard to get excited for them. I found the variant set (with Eric Masterson) from the sister release at a comics shop a few weeks ago and I still haven't opened it. For me, it really takes several new characters to get me excited to open a pack. That said, I really was thrilled to get Armin Zola and Beta Ray Bill (since I passed on Stormbreaker).

They aren't in my local TRUs and they're never on TRU.com when I look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I appreciate your helpfulness MM, but the rut isn't that big yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) I'll gladly take them from you for free and give them to my dogs, GH. They know how to appreciate things you may not initially appreciate in such a way that it makes you appreciate them much more after the fact.

groundhog7s Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Actually, I get the same affect from my children. My four year old just broke his record a couple weeks ago by breaking one of my toys 7 seconds after I had opened the package. It takes talent to not be doing that on purpose.

You'd have a lot more room for Minimates if you stopped buying so many Pop! figures. I'll tell you what, you let me have some of them (Chases preferably) and then you'll have more room for Minimates. :biggrin: Actually, I get the same affect from my children. My four year old just broke his record a couple weeks ago by breaking one of my toys 7 seconds after I had opened the package. It takes talent to not be doing that on purpose. You're not kidding. That is definitely a talent right there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) The logjam keeping these out of stores must be ending - I finally saw Wave 12 in store this afternoon. Oddly enough, the only ones sold out were the First Appearance Thor packs. Edited January 29, 2012 by boyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate_studio Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) My nearest TRU got the wave, but were out of Crossbones and Balder. BUMMER! Still picked up a Zola, though. He's so much cooler in person that I thought he'd be. Tomorrow I'm checking the TRU a little farther away and hoping they have Crossbones and Balder/Thor. Wish me luck! UPDATE (didn't want to double post): I successfully found Balder/First Appearance Thor, but no Crossbones. I'm super excited for the Asgardians, but bummed about Crossbones. Guess I'll have to find him online somewhere. I'm loving the Balder/Thor set and think this Thor might just be my favorite version of him.

viciousvink Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 This is crazy, I've been hunting this wave in central Florida every week for the last month and no sign of these elusive mates anywhere, feels like I'm on a snipe hunt, crouckie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Is anyone still able to find these at their local TRUs? The two near me STILL haven't received any figures from this wave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MsMarvel fan Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I have xbones and cap set for trade, and if someone is really in a pinch and NEEDS them and only has paypal, I'll help a brother out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I finally found a case on the pegs last Friday at my local TRU. Yesterday they had another case. I picked up an extra set for any fellow board member still in need. PM me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Additup Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 The closest Toys R Us to me has nothing but the Zola/Cap and Armored Thor/Beta Ray Bill packs for weeks. I finally gave in and got a Balder/Thor pack online. Came in today and couldn't be happier with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 So I walked into my local TRU today and they FINALLY have Wave 12. A couple months too late TRU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
