How many figs are in jumbo packs? Same 1:1 color to mono ratio? Sticker inserts too?

 

One showing, three random. The mono ratios are the same, but I don't know for sure if the color ratios themselves are (I would assume so), you will find two mono and one painted in the included blind bag. Stickers for all four figs are included as well.

Received and opened my three Potomac boxes yesterday. No blacks, sadly. There were 5 yellows total--2 out of 2 boxes each and 1 out of the third box. Unfortunately, three of the yellows were duplicates of ones I already had (Michelle Muck, Corroded Carl and Fiery Francis). And I am still missing a painted Nasty Nick for my painted set (he's just not showing up in packs for me--out of all packs so far I've only found one green one).

 

But I did put a very nice dent into filling out my mono sets (well, aside from the yellow).

Out of 8 boxes i only pulled 2 painted nasty nicks. But id trade you one. if your down.

Heres a list of what i got out of 8 boxes.

Some of the bony Tony's I got looked funny .. Now it makes cents, you see the head was put on afterwards, but only on the painted ones. I can see it on the monos

Edit. Maybe that explains tofudrifters weird nasty nick ?

 Ive got a yellow adam bomb, with a completley shifted over stem to his cloud, its off center. Its 2 parts it seems. the figure & the stem/cloud.

[Soupie]

Really!? Multiple parts glued together at such a small scale... Eew.

Gonna have to see some hi res pics.

pulled a black russell muscle. he looks groovy. listed it on ebay at a stupid price that i know it won't sell for......but that's close to what it would take to make me part with it. he looks good in black for sure. if anybody had a black salty sean and would want to trade, i would trade for it.

Are the 2 packs everyone is getting all $2.99? Are the 4-packs less than 6 bucks at Walmart? I just want to know if I should be buying the 2 or 4 packs if I plan to load up? Are people still finding empty feeds? The ones I've seen are all full if anyone is having trouble.

Ive only seen them at target, the 2 packs are 2.99 and the 4 packs are 4.99 the 4 packs looks pretty well picked over, and the gravity feeds looked pretty full at one target, and bone dry at another

Thanks! I'm going to see if I can find him in a four pack this weekend. If I don't have any luck with him soon I might hit you up.

It's not nearly as bad as it sounds. Some of them are cast as two parts, but it's more like the rubber is melded together than glued. Unless you get an odd defective one, you really wouldn't even notice that some began life as two pieces.

Minikins finally showed up at my local Target here in San Diego, CA... Hopefully they arrive for those of you who were still waiting as well.

They only had 3-packs for $2.99

These are dope!

[ironmask]

All of the four packs I have bought, hovered at $5.

[McSoundwave]

I can't wait for my boxes from Potomac to arrive!  Should be this week as they were shipped last Monday.  

[Jeremy0477]

I found the 4-packs at Walmart this AM, picked up 3 of them. Got my 1st yellow, Nat Nerd. I'm hooked, getting the other 3-4 packs left this afternoon. Are the 4-packs all the same if they have same character showing? Thanks!

[fkro6784]

Finally got painted Nasty Nick to complete my painted set! Found one value pack with him showing at Target. The only one with him I've seen out of like 4-5 different stores and probably 30 value packs.

 

Also, did a MiniKins post on Little Weirdos:

Excellent find. I went threw 9 boxes and didn't find one.

It was the same for me, as well. Him and Russell Muscle were the last two painted I needed. Finally, found them showing in value packs at the last Target I went to in my area. Still the only two I've seen so far.

I got two yellow Leaky Lindsay's and two yellow Patty Putty's in the same box from Potomac... Kind of strange. Not that I'm complaining
The very same box had a single sealed double pack with 2 painted Cracked Jack's in it. (athough the stickers showed different characters). Weird.

This was the Calm Before the Storm Today 24 2 Packs And 2 Jumbos.



disappointed with my First Haul No Blacks and Not one Yellow

[Biffard]

Ouch Edmasta, that sucks bro. Hopefully your odds change soon!

[Jeremy0477]

Grabbed 4 more packs - two 2-packs and two 4-packs. So far out of the 34 I have, I've only gotten 1 double (painted Anna Banana). I feel like I'm on a hot streak, time to let it ride!

[Metalmonkey]

Went thru 4 more boxes and found absolutely squat other than a few yellows, most of which I already had.
Should've quit whilst I was ahead but no....

[Metalmonkey]

Sorry for the double post, but I just got a email saying Potomac are taking preorders for series 2!
$53 a box or $784 for a case (16 boxes).

[OILERSFAN4]

Anyone spotted these in Canadian retail stores?? I bought a box from Toywiz and came up 5 painted figures short of a set.

 

Debating if I should just buy another box or eBay the 5 I need. Is anyone selling individual figures anywhere other than eBay??

 

I really like these figures but I feel like they should be a tiny bit bigger. Some of the detail really suffers on certain ones because they are so small.

[faqrulesyou]

Wow guys, I am super mad at Topps right now. I ordered a Gravity Feed case of 36 packs, the picture even showed a gravity feed box, and said 36 packs, and now topps has changed that to 24 packs and they only sent me a regular case with 24 packs instead of the gravity feed case. And the 24 pack cases are THE SAME PRICE they had listed for the gravity feed. I call shenanigans on that!

Edited by faqrulesyou, 22 October 2013 - 08:30 AM.

[faqrulesyou]

Yeah, so I called Topps and they basically said, "Yeah, if you don't want those for that price, send them back. We didn't get the Gravity feed boxes we were expecting and we are selling those 24 pack cases for the price we had listed for Gravity feeds"...I'm sending them back and ordering from Potomac and waiting to start my opening session.

 

Lame.
