Nickelodeon Mystery Minis

[Mr Yac]

Yeah I know, I'm sure I'll be just as mad when that set releases

and after the relatively decent ratios of the Disney Afternoon set I was optimistic about this one. especially annoying since the 2 I want most are Filbert & Reptar and they're of course in different sets entirely

[uhh]

but Nick is the same, 8 1/6 ,2 1/12 and only 2 slots for the "rares"

Yeah I know, I'm sure I'll be just as mad when that set releases

Dibs on all your rugrats dupes

Dibs on all your rugrats dupes

IF I buy any of these they are all yours bud, aside from Reptar of course.

Oohhh a reptar army does sound fun! Hopefully you don't get too many duplicates

sadly this might be a pass for me unless there is a solid layout. I just can't afford to keep throwing away money no matter how much I may like the series.

[MyLittleFunkos]

These are some amazing looking minis. I'll probably buy a couple at the store, since even the 1/6's are pretty cool. Otherwise. I'll wait it out till the prices go down (as they normally do) because I sure as heck don't need a ton of Tommys.

You mean you don't want a Tommy army??

No. Please no. I'm team Chucky!

[Sam25]

I don’t collect this line but there are some that take me back. I could see these be very popular

[Heli88]

I may try to snag Ren and Stimpy, but I was a little old for the huge 90s Nick wave of shows, so most of these guys don't mean much to me. More for you guys.

Since they're both 1/6, at least it shouldn't be hard to find 'em.

‘I’ like the 1/6 ratio. Everyone complains, but for those of us completing sets it helps in the fact that it’s one less character to find. The 1/6s are easy to locate in a case, so just avoid it.

Easy day.

how in the world does fewer slots to fit MORE figures make it easier to complete a set?

[beachball48]

Woohoo! Ren & Stimpy will be easy! Phew.

Overall, there will be fewer minis in the set to collect.

Super excited that all the ones I want are commons.

Thank you for posting this.

[wgfulton]

What the hell? A 1/56!? :|

which unless they shift the ratios around is going to make the store exclusives 1/12, 1/24 and 1/56. just going to be a nightmare.

Better than 1/72 store exclusives though...

Ugh those ratios. That's the only thing I hate about the minis, so many 1/6. It's gotten to be too much.

[x56735x]

Im excited for the Nick MM...but am I the only one that thinks their eyes look a bit buggy? Like it looks like their eyes are going to pop out of their heads. I'm curious to see what the PSH will look like.

Anyway, I'll see if I can pick these up on sale or something, otherwise I'll still be frustratingly trying to finish the WB MM.

I agree. The eyes are kind of strange...

I'm curious about the Loyal Subjects set that's coming. Maybe more expensive, but they look really good.

[yokofox33]

Not getting all of them, but I definitely want to get the Rocko, Monsters, and Ren & Stimpy sets. Hoping I can get lucky!

I am dying here because I want all of these but blind bag thing makes me anxious. I can't just keep buying the same thing over and over again. What do people usually do to get all of these?

Layouts, scales, determination.

[Mystlurker]

Whats with all these 1/6 on all the newer sets. No one but Funko's pocket book wants that. Its such a short term strategy on getting people to buy these. It will work until people get tired of it then it will kill mini's.

Funko, hear us, for the love of collecting please do kinder ratios and stop with the incredible amount of dupes.

[Greymom]

I'm so tempted by these! My wallet is weeping!!

I'm thinking it has to be an error. Meant to be a 1/36, 1/56 doesn't make much sense Either way, not fun. But, less difficult than the Warner Bros minis. So there's that?

With the ratios lately, 1/56 is feasible. Remember....Spider-Man (and possibly Star Wars) had 1/8 figures. 7 X 8 =56. Im not great at math but one out of every 5 cases has the 1/56? Correct my math because I know I’m wrong.

[TriFeckTa]

Will the Reptar be GITD?

It doesn't work out right based on the ratios if the other minis, it has to be 1/36

Multiple 1/6 ratios will ultimately lead to loss revenue for Mystery Minis. When these were first revealed with the Toy Fair announcements I saw a lot of people in various groups I'm in, who usually don't collect minis go nuts for these. Well since the ratio on the regular/common case has been revealed I've seen most of those same people now say they'll pass or just pick up the ones they really want on eBay.

Seems to be a recurring theme lately the designers do such a great job with the sculpts which should lead to increased sales from those who don't usually get into minis, only for the ratios to be so screwed up that those same people who aren't into minis to just pass them by completely.

[popfanboy]

Wowzers those ratios are pretty bad... good luck to you brave souls.

[meangene]

The ratios are pretty interesting. I'll unfortunately be after all of these. Hopefully I can knock it out pretty fast

I have to agree; it kills my enthusiasm for a line when I see a bunch of 1/6.

[Geescube]

I'll buy cheap dupes .

Most of my wants so far are commons. Yay.

Just wait a couple weeks and I'm sure people will be giving the 1/6's away

These look really great. I am partial to Rugrats.

Layouts, scales, determination.

Layouts? What do you mean by that? Are they in a box or are you able to feel the package? I have never bought mystery minis or even seen them in the stores before.

[Mr Yac]

some sets have the same figures in the same positions in the box, so if you find Ren & Stimpy at one store if you find another untouched case Ren & Stimpy would be in the same positions in the new box as well.

And then to expand on that while layouts are great and a huge help even if a case looks fresh/untouched it's always possible that the employees took the minis out and put them back in a random order. Around me, that doesn't happen to often as it's extra time/work for the associates. Though there are several times where they take all of the minis out of the box and put them on a different shelf.

So that's where scales come in, get yourself a scale capable of measuring in .01g increments or finer (Amazon about $10 pays for itself in the first series you buy) where you weigh the boxes. Eventually the community gets enough data to say FigureA weights in at XX.z while FigureB weights in at YY.x (on average, there is always a little variant between each mini, their box, bag, air, etc.) but it at least helps. Reason you want one that goes down to .01g increments is in a series there may be 3-5 figures that are all within 1gram of each other. It's not sure proof but combined with knowing layouts it helps a lot in trying to avoid doubles.

I really like the MMs, but these ratios are ridiculous! I've gotten so many dupes out of brand new cases of MMs. But, I'll still probably end up buying a case of these...

[Greymom]

Angry Beavers are 1/72? Ugh....might start out as a great quest but I can see it turn into a nightmare real quick!

The Angry Beavers was one of my least fave Nick toons so I’m glad those two are the rare pulls! Really excited to try to collect these!

[Greymom]

I'd watch Nick cartoons whenever I had my nephew with me, so I know all these characters. Looking forward to my quest!
