Nice pulls Eric!

 

I'm digging the Fiery Francis figures a lot. I only have him in Red but I'll be keeping an eye out on ebay. I wish everyone had their boxes shipped to them so we could kick this trading frenzy off already!

Any one else had a message like this from Toy Wiz?
I'm not calling that I'm in Sweden.

I ordered from toywiz and Potomac , I haven't gotten any emails from either,
I hope they just want to give you cheaper shipping.

If you want me to call I could, I'd need your info , also i could pre order another box for you . And ship it to Sweden for you , you'd have to cover shipping and what not? Lmk

Nice, how many boxes did you find?

Out of 6 Targets 5 of them had Gravity Feed Boxes. My wife has spent like $300 on figures.... OH MAN!

 

Here is everything I have. I still have 169 figures coming in the mail!

Minikins are an addiction! I'm very tempted to buy more but I'm thinking it would be wiser to trade for the figures I need. Also, I'm surprised to see yellows selling for $6-10. Makes going after a full yellow set more realistic without breaking the bank.

[Juggy]

Toywiz is still selling them, they go for 49.99 plus tax i believe. its so close to the ship date, i cant believe they are still taking preorders, don't know if they will be able to fill all the orders. I pre ordered from potomac first. and like fkro said, they are not taking any orders anymore.  shipping is 10 bucks, unless you use the discount code. DICE then you get 5% off . 

 

Was about to snag a case before I realized their cases are only 24 packs and SERIES 2 !!! Shipping in October? Is this right?

I was at my local Target  last night and saw they had a box of these (though it was mostly empty already) so I picked up a couple packs. Have to say that considering I had zero interest in these at all, after having them in-hand they do have a certain appeal, and they're smaller than I thought they'd be which I like too. It's good that they decided to go with the monochrome chase figures as well, they're much cooler. Are they 1-per pack though? I ended up with 2/4 mono figs.

 

Here's what I pulled:

Right on Bachman! That red lindsay looks awesome and I agree that the monos from this line are better.

 

Each pack contains 1 painted figure and 1 mono. I'm glad that Topps went with this type of distribution because it makes putting together sets more fun rather than frustrating.

[Er0k26]

Tonight I will make a list of stuff I have to trade and needs, if anybody is interested.

[Matlock]

Man o man I've Been to 9 targets now, and nothing at any of them, potomac has no idea when they will get theirs, they said the 16th was the original date they got, so that's when there're expecting them , toy wiz on the other hand says they have them in stock . And my order has been printed, and is in the warehouse getting boxed up for shipping, toywiz also has them in their store now , not as a pre order, althought they jacked up the price to 59.99 from 49.00 . So any day now. Tic toc

Yeah, I got so impatient I ordered a gravity feed off eBay, even though I have boxes on order from Potomac. Tracking says scheduled delivery tomorrow. Can't wait! Of course the way things work I'll probably go to another Target tomorrow and find find them, but whatever.

Kinda misleading of them to list that the mono figs are "rare" on the packaging then. I mean, I know that stating something is "rare" on a package doesn't usually mean anything but in this case if each pack has one painted and one mono then everything has the same distribution rate except the yellows

I got this message today , I called and they said they've had a lot of activity and just wanted to confirm the order and address. They said thanks and they would process the order now that they confirmed the address . Kinda weird ,but at least there still shipping them

[Biffard]

Was at Target and checked to see if they had any more. They had a half empty box that was rummaged through but I wanted to grab two packs to keep sealed for my collection. I ended up leaving with 6  and opened 1 when I got home. I got a Yellow Sy Clops to complete the rainbow!

Toywiz is shipping!

[bigburty]

Man I need to stop looking at this thread as it just makes me more disappointed! I Facebook PM'd the Minikins guys as suggested, but they have yet to get back to me regarding a UK release. I must admit that I'm only really a fan of the mono colours though. The Sy Clops rainbow shot above is suhweet!!

[Matlock]

Potomac is also shipping. They say I'll have a trackin number by 5:00 pm Eastern time.

It's about to get real real real fast

What state you in joeybones?

[joeybones]

Florida.

 

This is 2 targets.

1 full gravity feed, and 22 packs from another.

 

 

I've gotta stop. Ive got 3 Boxes and like 15 value packs coming.. Believe me, they are exciting as hell to open at first & buy at retail..! lol.. but when they start packing the same 2, in the same packs a few times, it gets annoying...

[Soupie]

I wonder if any kids have gotten their hands on these yet...

Haven't had a damn second to check any Targets in Central PA.

[ironmask]

We've got them in Columbus, OH.  I got a yellow Stan Alive, amongst a bunch of others that I could give a shit less about. 

At least I got a red Mark Bark. At least there's that.

[phantomeye]

Where's the Dead Teds?!!  I'm looking forward to that sculpt.  And Potty Scotty is a negative right?

[phantomeye]

So can Adam Bomb be ridiculously easily ID'd because of the broad shaped mushroom cloud explosion?  I would suspect him to be a fan fav and first picked over pack.
