Pint Size Heroes?

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

I'm hoping for an X-Men set along with Avengers and the rest of the Justice League (and Teen Titans of course).

I almost forgot Power Rangers. With metallic, glow in the dark, and unmasked variants, they have enough to do a full set + exclusives.

So, there's a new promotional video for Pint Sized Heroes Spider-Man and it looks like there will be a checklist in the bags now. It makes me wonder if it will block the peephole from being used.

Still cannot seem to find Batman Beyond. Every regular case I seem to find is practically empty when I find it lol

Really unfortunate that metallic Spider-Man is part of the display. :(

You might try asking someone if you can buy it from the display or possibly buy a bag and ask if they'd switch it. I asked a GS manager if I could do that with Harley Quinn and he just gave it to me when he realized it wasn't part of his inventory. Same with the silver NFL mini Dorbz. Having said that, I have become friends with him so I'm sure not everyone would do that, but it doesn't hurt to ask around.

He did inform me that since he's a Marvel fan that he would be the one getting the metallic Spidey when it comes in.

Was supposed to get my case of Spider-Man PSH today, but USPS delayed it until Monday. I've looked forward to these all week.

Seriously, how do they expect me to enjoy my weekend now?

Got super lucky and found the Batman Beyond. Only two Batmans were left in the only regular case around me.

I finally came across a normal case and found Batman Beyond, but he's got a cape.

Is that a common thing, or have I run across some kind of weird production problem?

I think that's actually Thrillkiller Batman, not Beyond.

My Beyond one has a cape too. It weirded me out when I opened it as well, but the rest of him matches the picture on the back.

Really loving these. They got me hooked giving me one for free at NYCC. I have most of the Batman ones(none of the HT exclusives, two of the GS ones). Not sure if I'll do Spiderman but really loving these!

Just got my case of Spidey PHS (pics will come later). A few thoughts:

-I didn't realize there are less characters than the Batman set. Although I wish there were more, it means all are 1/12. I'm assuming exclusives will be two per box as well.

-No character guide on the back, just an insert inside. The insert makes it very difficult to use the peephole. In fact some were packed in a way I'd say it was impossible to check.

-Overall, a very solid addition to the line, but having them in hand makes me realize I like the DC one better. Maybe I'll feel different once I get the exclusives, but having less characters is a little disappointing.

Was at my local GS looking for the Spider-Man PSH and when the guy working looked it up it had a street date of 11/25 which is Black Friday. Don't how accurate that date is going to be but that we be annoying if true.

Yeah, I saw that too. They have a ton of stuff scheduled for Black Friday release and a few of the managers I've talked to don't know how accurate that is.

Two steps forward and ten back. There was no need for that stupid insert. No need at all. If I can't see what I'm getting, I just won't buy them. Not eager to waste as much money as I did on Mystery Minis.

I am really loving the Pint Sized heroes. I may even like them more than the mystery minis. If they start coming out with more sets like Game of Thrones and Harry Potter I may get rid of my mystery minis and get these instead. They take up way less room and for the DC ones at least I think they are way cuter than their mystery mini counterparts. Love being able to feel the bag and use the peephole to see what I am getting as well.

1. I hate that stupid insert.

2. The insert is both stupid and annoying.

3. Why?

I just got my first unwanted piece. Yay. Ode to joy. Did not want Black Cat. Good thing they were BOGO 50.

If they make this a thing or just do away with the hole altogether, I'm not buying any more. [-X

The Black Cat is probably the one I'm hoping to get the most whenever the Marvel set makes its way to my town. I hope these show up in Walmarts. I hate the price HT put on these. I passed on the DC ones for now because of the price. It's nearly double what Funko claimed they would be.

Found a pretty full case of the Spiderman ones at my Hot topic today. That checklist insert does make it maore challenging, but I was still able to use the peephole with some effort. Was able to pick out a Black Cat and 2 Spider Gwens (1 for another Funatic) I think the only 2 that would be really difficult to differentiate are the venom and black suit because I had to generally manipulate the feet of the figure to the hole and they look and feel the same. Also did not find a metallic in the case except for the one in the case window.

I asked the chick at HT if I could buy the metallic Spidey. I couldn't. Lol Not until the case is just about empty.

And, I saw something odd. There were around 5 Batman PSHs tossed in the bottom of a figural keychain display box. I didn't even know they had gotten a case of the Batman series. I was there less than a week ago and again Friday. They sold almost the whole case in a few days. Kind of amazing.
