What's your latest mystery mini purchase?

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've just recently started collecting mystery minis, and my latest one was a full case of the Gears of War ones. Having tiny Marcus Fenix next to the pop version is awesome!

Yep. Horror, Sci-Fi, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Suicide Squad, Batman Arkham series, Batman V Superman, GPK, and I'm sure there are some others that I'm forgetting. :)


Arkham is one of my favorite series!

I use the same sort of setup. I try to pair the mini with the pop. Marcus Fenix is a good pull too.

I used that Ferrara Market discount code and pre-ordered a case of the new Beauty and the Beast movie minis! First time I have ordered a case online, still waiting to hear what the rarities for all of those ones are. Kind of dreading to see what and where all the exclusives are (please not Walmart or Walgreens [-o< )

Got a couple Sci Fi minis at Gamestop on clearance. Paid a whopping .27 cents for what turned out to be Judge Dredd at the first location, and 2.99 for the ones at a different location. Those ended up being 2 Cylons, Bender, Alien Queen, and a Borg. Hoping to get a Kirk, Spock, Voltron ,and Robocop from the older lines somehow. Next up is the Horror Series 2 figures and Suicide Squad remnants that are on clearance as well.

Just scored a full box of Horror series 2 for 25 bucks at gamestop. I can now give myself permission to pay full price on series 3. No further luck on the Sci Fi sets though. But I'm not giving up hope totally yet. Also found one lone GPK2 figure today. My first from that series. Turned out to be Eerie Eric. Pretty sure I'm gonna get a headache tracking all those down due to the relative scarcity of GPK presence here.

Just when you think Reis couldn't get any cooler and BAM!

As for my pickups, I've been on a bit of a tear playing catch up with past series:

WWE s1/s2
Sci-Fi s1/s2
Horror s2/s3

The rares and exclusives are killing me. I want a Bateman sooooo bad but damn is he expensive.

I just purchased some Reis O'Brien designed minis from a funatic here for a great price (thanks turbobacon). Can't wait for Wonder Woman, Katana and Knightmare Batman to get here and added to my small but growing mini collection! I think you are very talented...

Still trying to tie up loose ends on Sci Fi series 2. Notably Voltron, which is problematic obviously, however i located an untouched case at Walgreens so i thought i had a chance again. Unfortunately my instincts did not pay off as i pulled my second Godzilla. Lol. Nature of the collection i guess, but I'm fiending for that damn Voltron. Hahaha

Recently finished the retro arcade series. Way too easy. This series and the gs batman series was too easy. I like a little bit of a hunt. Opening a mini that's rare or hard to find is one of the best feelings as a collector. Just keep the ratios under 1:36 please.

I'd say 1:24 ;-) I can't stomach buying more than 2 cases of a series.
