Rheul Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) Big ole base in that Magik/Warlock pack. Thats Magik's teleport base. It looked really cool at NYCC. That red bar on top of Spidey's chest is gone! Red bar? Edited November 20, 2010 by Rheul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Remember it like this 'Helmut the German's helmet' . Just trying to help. Blerg - i always bollocks that up. LOL - thanx mate. I'm really excited for this wave. So - are Magneto & Wolverine from an upcoming wave? Or are they like the Battle-Damaged Wolverine & Captain America were? Not really 'TRU exclusives' , but also not offered in a regular wave. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltron Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Magik looks absolutely wonderful the shoulderpad is a nice touch Warlock perfectly captures the zany essence and design of the character. Shatterstar is perfect I cannot wait to add him to my collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentry Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Are the packaging pictures AA puts on the site the final product? Or are they the prototypes inserted into packaging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 So isn't the rule of thumb that once we see the packaged pictures it takes about 6 weeks for them to hit the store shelves? On another note, I'm glad Magik has that Shoulder pad thing on her metallic arm. She didn't have that when we saw the prototype pics and I think it's a nice little detail. That seems like the usual pattern, but I think I recall the swordsman/surfer pack sneaking out pretty quickly around last December in time for holiday shopping. I'm sure TRU wants to have as much new stuff on shelves as possible, do I wouldn't be completely surprised to see these before Christmas.

winkerbean Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I hope that getting warlock paves the way for a phalanx army builder in a later wave, maybe with some generation x characters *crosses fingers & waits for a Blink minimate* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOA blink + Morph + Sabretooth + ??? = Exiles box set!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 You guys talking about Spidey's eyes made me realize something I've been wishing for to be fixed possibly being fixed. That red bar on top of Spidey's chest is gone! I showed some previously released Spideys that had the red bar to Chuck at SDCC and he didn't know about it then. If this is fixed, that means I'll actually be buying a handful of Spideys again! At first I thought I saw the red bar in both pictures, now I'm not sure. If Chuck wasn't aware of that issue, do the DST guys see any finished product? Chuck always seems surprised whenever these quality issues are brought up.

groundhog7s Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 My only complaint is that the back of the packages show Cannonball and Shatterstar's feet. They should have hidden them behind the descriptions in true Liefeld fashion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilltron Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I'm actually kind of excited for the Brown Wolverine redo he'll look good next to Betsy, hopefully we'll see more Outback-era X-Men in upcoming waves (I really want a Dazzler and Longshot!!!).

Serge_Havok Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) I'm actually kind of excited for the Brown Wolverine redo he'll look good next to Betsy, hopefully we'll see more Outback-era X-Men in upcoming waves (I really want a Dazzler and Longshot!!!). I too am exited about the Outback X-men. I recently added a brown jacket to my custom Dazzler and she looks awesome. Just like on that old arcade game! Wolverine is going to look awesome next to her, Betsy, Mohawk Storm and Havok. Edited November 20, 2010 by Serge_Havok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm 1:08 Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 That red bar on top of Spidey's chest is gone! Red bar? Top of the chest has a red bar that is not the same shade of red as the rest of the body. Red bar on House of M Spidey: http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php...of+M+Spider-Man Red bar on Heroes Spidey: http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php...mp;n=Spider-Man Hopefully you get the idea. And if you look close enough, you can also see the black web lines bleeding through in the white part of the eyes. What can I say? I'm picky about my Spideys. Man I love Ivan's Database!

Mattallica Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I wonder if Mags will come with a dark head like the AoA set. My guess is yes. if you enlarge the pics and look closely you can see the black head and teeth in the package for "Magnet" (thats his name in the bio section on the back of the package, looks like DST could use a proofreader) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltron Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 So any information on when we should be seeing these in stores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serge_Havok Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I checked for these this past weekend and Toys R Us was a mess and it was crowded. It's the whole Christmas shopping craziness of every year. I kinda wish these would pop up after the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CortherX Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 i'm starting to feel like these will never show up! usually we get ours here a couple weeks after everyone starts finding them elsewhere... but no one has come across them yet??

Lobsterman Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I think they meant "look for these when you're out shopping for the Martin Luther King Jr hoiliday." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsMarvel fan Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) Picked up wolvie/mags, magick/warlock and cannonball/shatterstar today in Maryland. Mags does come with a dark face, but it is a flesh colored base with a black tampos with red eyes. he also comes with one of those clear flight stands. I skipped the spidey/lizard pack. I figured people would like to see Douglock. The right arm blaster does not come off. Edited December 17, 2010 by MsMarvel fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Thanks for the pic. So the hunt is on, eh? Good thing TRU is now open from 6 a.m. to midnight. Makes it much easier to go on the hunt... And shiny Magneto is shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
