AdyCarter Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 http://cgi.ebay.com/MARVEL-MINIMATES-SERIE...S:B:SRCH:US:101 That guy claims so. Edit: Judging by shipping lists, rest of the world gets 13 this week. So perhaps 12 for the West Coast? Quote
Amazing.JL Posted October 22, 2006 Posted October 22, 2006 I can believe that. They just messed up shipment weeks. I'm waiting to see if the Tampo is fixed on Sentry. On a side note, Midwest comic shops are getting minimates this week, which I presume are series 13 followed by 12 the next week if what this seller holds true. Quote
storm 1:08 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I got my weekly email list from my comic shop a day early. Usually they send it on Mondays. Anyway according to them, it doesn't look like we will getting Series 12 this week. Quote
Marquis de Carabas Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 I can't wait! I think I may only pick up the luke cage pack... hopefully with the sentry variant Quote
Jason Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 http://www.diamondcomics.com/shipping/shipping_102506.txt GLAD TO SEE THIS! APR062796 MARVEL MINIMATES 2-PK SER 13 $107.88 Quote
Amazing.JL Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Strangely, my comic shop told me I was getting 12 this week. He actually wrote the characters in the description. What chaos! I can't confirm till Saturday cause I won't be able too before then. Quote

Amazing.JL Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 This would be a huge mess if I do get them before west coast, I really think it's 13 being mistakenly shipped instead of 12. We'll see. Quote
Fujis Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 This would be a huge mess if I do get them before west coast, I really think it's 13 being mistakenly shipped instead of 12. We'll see. From Brandon: "I spoke to Chuck at DST on the issue and he tells me it is due to some "fluke" in ocean shipping and transportation. Instead of holding all the minimates and releasing them in order of their series, they just got the new minimates to you as fast as they could regardless of what series they are." Quote
Amazing.JL Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 ^WTF? What does that mean? People are just getting anything? Not clear at all. Quote
storm 1:08 Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Hmmmm... Here's my take on the quote. It means that Series 12 was made first and ready to go. Then Series 13 was made next and ready to go. Since Series 13 was just made, they shipped that out by mistake in a "Last-In, First-Out" oopsie-fluke. Doesn't sound like Sentry is being fixed, but I'm hoping so. Quote
TBT! Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 My take is.... Boats take a while to get here, one might be faster than another over the month or so trip, customs might clear one before another container first... It Don't think we need to read anything into it, heck they are coming. T. Quote
rsprin Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 Wait I did this problem in Math class in 4th grade. Two boats leave a dock travelling in opposite directions. Boat A is travelling at a snails crawl, and boat B is going half that fast. At what point will the space time continuum tear in half, causing both boats to occupy the same space, thus destroying eachother in a blast of anti-matter? Quote

Marquis de Carabas Posted October 23, 2006 Posted October 23, 2006 in retrospect, I guess it doesn't really matter when they get here (to me), as long as they get here eventually (and I get the sentry variant) Quote

This is what I was thinking too. Quote
Action Ranger Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 in retrospect, I guess it doesn't really matter when they get here (to me), as long as they get here eventually (and I get the sentry variant) Well if Wave 13 comes out before Wave 12 it means there is now randomness about when anything will come out and we can never count on anything coming out in any order. What if Wave 14 comes out before Wave 12? Will your mind be blown then? I just want a Nick Fury with manipulation action! Quote
psychopanda Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Wave 13 pack came in the mail yesterday from Cornerstorecomics. I'm West Coast. I guess Wave 12 will be later? Quote
luke314pi Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 What if Wave 14 comes out before Wave 12? Will your mind be blown then? And will Ady eat another hat then? Quote
AdyCarter Posted October 24, 2006 Author Posted October 24, 2006 What if Wave 14 comes out before Wave 12? Will your mind be blown then? And will Ady eat another hat then? I'll eat wave 14! Especially the Gummy Bear Phoenix! Quote
rx78jj Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Man this is so confusing. But whatever, just as long as i get the Sentry variant. Or i might just break donw and buy the whole series. Ohh and I only want Kitty and Beast Quote

Ohh and I only want Kitty and Beast I was right there with you, but then the Toys R Us 4 pack came out and I realized I could pick up the other 4 in the wave for $10 and I figured, what the hell.

drgnrbrn316 Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 I doubt that 14 will hit before 12. West Coast should hypothetically be seeing 12 today, so we'll be waiting for word from our Pacific friends this afternoon. If 14 does hit before 12, then I'll eat this delicious sandwich. Quote
Cloneme Posted October 25, 2006 Posted October 25, 2006 Okay I sent someone out to the comic shop right now to check on them. I'll let you all know unless someone gets there first..... Quote
