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.

What's your latest mystery mini purchase?

Postby allcutethings2 » Tue Dec 27, 2016 10:00 am

I've loved reading the similar Pop/Dorbz threads, and want to hear what everyone's been buying for minis lately!

I picked up four of the Batman Arkham Asylum minis last night, and ended up with Batman (Arkham Origins), Arkham Knight, and two Robins.

Picked up 4 more garbage pail kid series 2 packs and pulled 2 fryan ryans, Cy clops, and Ritchie retch. Unfortunately we only needed fryan Ryan. We also got 2 of the batmans, negative and pink. Only needed pink. While we were checking out a really nice lady that worked at think geek gave my son a cyclops mini someone had opened which he needed. So all in all a 50% success rate, not great but I've certainly had worse

Was able to get Alduin (from the Bethesda set) on eBay a while back for around $10. Didn't think it was too bad of a price considering his rarity and some prices I've seen him for.

Got a bunch from Batman v Superman for Christmas (Alfred, Bruce, Knightmare Bats, reg Supes, Supe Soldier) and two (darn) reg Enchantress' from Suicide Squad.

Stopped into WM on the way home from work and grabbed the last 5 Horror S3 and the empty case:
- Jaws
- Slimer
- Elvira
- Wolfman (x2)

I had a gut feeling they were going to be the easier pieces which was fine by me as they were ones that I still needed.

I went to Walmart yesterday and found a single Moana box left on the shelf and I figured may as well take a chance. It ended up costing only $4.00 and the figure inside was Moana with the wave, so yay!

Bought a few more at GameStop today. BvS, more Arkham, Civil War, and Sci-fi Classics Series 2. Turned out pretty well, got three exclusives and a dozen minis I was looking for in particular. Missed out on Dr. Lazarus though. :-/

Bought some Moana Minis from Walmart. Wound up getting the Exclusive Oar Moana (and wound up with an extra one, too!). I bought three and still haven't opened the third, but based on weighing it, I'm fairly confident it's another Wave Moana (of which I all ready have two). So... We'll see. If so, that means the Walmart Moana Minis have been VERY good for me. I've pulled three Tamatoas as well. I've been having extremely good luck with these, considering they've been 'guesses' based on how they feel in my hand as opposed to using a layout or anything.

Nice Walmart haul! All the locations around me are sold out, so all I got was Tamatoa.

Finally found a fresh case of the DC Heroes and Pets today, and pulled Storm! The one I had to have. Now to debate whether to go after the others I wanted, or hope they go on sale soon.

I just purchased 12 of Disney Villain minis from Walmart.com in hopes of getting the exclusives. I ended up with no 1/36s so no Stretch or Lotso.

I purchased 3D Gremlin, Shirtless Crow, Pinhead, Cthulu, Chtulu Glow in the Dark and Facehugger (which is a horror mini in my opinion).

I never quiet understood why they included Aliens and Predators in the science fiction mini line, they should have used them for the horror line!

The crave hit me last night so I caved and picked up 2 Sci-Fi s2 minis. Walgreens just lines the boxes up on the shelf so a layout wouldn't help, grabbed the 2 heaviest in hopes of either Godzilla or Voltron. NO LUCK. Ended up with Amok Kirk and Neo. Oh well... :P

Awesome score! I've debated on trying for Shan Yu, but decided to content myself with Hayabusa (my first pull from that series).

Does it count if someone else bought them for me? I got a TON of mystery minis for Christmas, including a case of Steven Universe! I also got a few Moana, Disney Villains, and FNAF minis!

They last minis I personally bought were for my mom. I used the case layout to get her Ursula and Flotsam and Jetsam as part of her Christmas gifts!

I went on a road trip and found the following:

Gamestop
Game of Thrones Series 3 case of 12 ($11.82 for the case)
Suicide Squad case of 12 ($17.82 for the case)
Hopefully they contain a full set in each case. They were on clearance and b1g1 free.


Bed Bath & Beyond
I finally caved and bought 6x blind boxes at $3.49 each (50% off clearance).
Ended up with:
Dr. Facilier
Flotsam & Jetsam
Patch
Red Queen
Sir Hiss
Voodoo

TRU
Bought two Bethesda all star minis at $3.98 each and ended up with two Dovahkiin minis. I used all my luck on the Disney Villains.
