Any news on the numbering for these guys? I hope golden cylon isn't 1/72...

Postby **missauru** » Thu Oct 15, 2015 6:12 pm

I will cry forever if Godzilla is the 1/72

Postby **Daemon373** » Thu Oct 15, 2015 6:13 pm

I really hope Godzilla isn't 1/72. He's the ONLY piece I'd be looking to get, and I don't want to have to resort to eBay scalpers like I did the Martian Soldier >,<

Postby **missauru** » Thu Oct 15, 2015 6:19 pm

Yeah he is my number one from the set. There are others I'd like but I want him the mostest.

Dr. Lazarus is my #1 and I have this horrible feeling he's gonna be a chase. Iron Giant is pretty awesome too, though. Don't care much if one of the two Cylons is a chase; they're less exciting to me. No great love for Voltron either.

Postby **Blake85** » Thu Oct 15, 2015 7:00 pm

I just need Godzilla to go with his proto!

Postby **ShyGuyPal** » Thu Oct 15, 2015 11:09 pm

Same, I'm hoping Godzilla isn't a very rare one. Based on how the case layouts are, I seem to see a pattern in the unusual variants and more obscure characters being the rarer ones. So based on that, I bet Voltron and the Commander Cylon will be the rarer ones. Alien Queen and Godzilla may be the less rare ones since a lot more people I feel would recognize those more (yet still being in higher demand).

Since it is just a repaint I am afraid the cylon commander will be 1/72.

Or an exclusive.

Haven't seen these in stores yet.

i might get a case of these as well, i was resisting the mystery mini cases, especially because i have no real display for them...seriously, they are purchased, opened, boxed and stored...i need more space...

Until the 23rd toy wars has the code BTTF which takes off 21%,

When I tried yesterday, their site said they were sold out of preorders on sci-fi cases.

Not my pic, but they have been found, here's a pic of the rarities. I'm so glad Bender's so common, he's the only one I NEED from the set.

Postby **missauru** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 11:09 pm

Yessssssss Godzilla isnt super rareeeeeee

Postby **wickerjay** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 11:23 pm

Where? Where? I need them now even though I just bought 2 cases of the HT Horror Series 2 exclusives. My wallet is on fire this month from minis.

Postby **ShyGuyPal** » Thu Oct 22, 2015 11:36 pm

Oh wow, what a great ratio! I might get a full case after all!

I don't know about that. Do I see Bender and Cyclon (regular) as 1/6? Do we really need two per case of those?

Postby **wickerjay** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 12:19 am

You know, they better have a Marty McFly exclusive somewhere, especially with the big BTTF anniversary and marketing push everywhere.

Postby **TheLastDude** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 12:28 am

I'm sorry, but I think this is the first time that Funko has really funked up a case assortment.

2 each of Bender and the Centurion with one each of the Queen, Neo, Locutus, Leeloo, and Kirk in each case while great figures like Doc Brown, Iron Giant, and Godzilla are 1/24; and Lazarus and Voltron are 1/36?

Balls.

There's no need for two of anyone in a single case when there are only 12 figures total.

I can maybe forgive the Cylon as the intention might be for army building, but who needs so many Bender minis?

Postby **wickerjay** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 3:18 am

Toy Wars let me order tonight but only one case. I wanted two so I could get the free shipping promo on top of the BTTF code. However, I was able to order a single box to go with case to qualify for free shipping, $56.03 OTD with CA tax.

Postby **RogueSolo** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 6:40 am

Ugh, 1/6? That's a minimum of 6 duplicates of two figures if I buy two cases. I already have one on pre-order from Toy Wars, and was planning on getting one from HT as well. Giveaways for everyone!

Postby **xmaldigolax** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 6:49 am

i'm pretty upset that it keeps disappearing off the toywars page...almost like they realized how much they were losing on it...

Postby **Daemon373** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 7:06 am

Godzilla's not a super secret rare! So glad he's not gonna make me pull my hair out on the trade market

Postby **RogueSolo** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 7:14 am

Hey Alex, I've got duplicates of Bender and Cylon to trade you lol

hahaha i don't know if i have anything you need marty!

I really want to buy a case, but mostly for the ones everyone already wants. $60 for the case was a pretty good deal from toy wars...can't find it anywhere else

Postby **RogueSolo** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 7:18 am

Depending on the discounts you have available, a case at HT can cost you a little over $70. Not as good, but could be worse.

Postby **dpb1298** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 8:03 am

I knew the commander cylon would be super rare

I'll probably never find him as I don't have money to buy cases and he will weigh the same as a lot of other figures. Interesting that they are introducing a 1/6 count. I suppose I could build a Cylon army if I wanted to.

Postby **dpb1298** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 8:04 am

But hey, I'll probably be able to find an alien queen

I agree, as someone who ordered a full case, this kind of stinks. The Cylon sort of makes sense, but one Bender is enough for me. I assumed the gold Cylon would be 1/72, but Kane being 1/72 is really frustrating. I'm not thrilled with having more higher ratio minis to track down.

On second thought though, I think I'll paint my second Bender gold to represent the Earth 2 version. ;-)

Postby **Blake85** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 11:31 am

I just hope my case has Godzilla

Postby **Pobble** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 4:32 pm

is this the first time seeing a 1/6 ratio?

Postby **Krimreaper** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 4:46 pm

I got the discount at Toy Ways, the site said sold out, I called and they reset it to take more orders. $60 shipped pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Can someone type out those case odds, I can't make out the picture?

Looks like this to me:

Alien Queen (1/12)
Bender (1/6)
Capt. Kirk (1/12)
Cylon Centurion (1/6)
Cylon Command Centurion (1/72)
Doc. Brown (1/24)
Dr. Lazarus (1/36)
Godzilla (1/24)
Iron Giant (1/24)
Kane with Facehugger (1/72)
Leeloo (1/12)
Locutus of Borg (1/12)
Neo (1/12)
Starbuck (1/24)
Voltron (1/36)

This is the first time since they switched to 12 figure cases.

Gotcha, thanks for the info! I guess this set will start off with dupes since I have a case on order.

Postby **wickerjay** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 6:59 pm

What retailer has these? They're already up on eBay. Maybe someone got a shipment early because I thought they weren't supposed to street until November.

Postby **missauru** » Fri Oct 23, 2015 7:32 pm

I dont remember if Ive already asked this but do we know if this series has HT exclusives yet?

Who is online
