He's probably the best of all the rares. I also like how they made him and all the ones that are supposed to be big larger than normal minis.

Found myself a Kane at a Gamestop! He was in FRONT LEFT of an untouched pack.

I think the case I got was tampered with. Is it normal to get 2 cylons, 2 benders, and 2 alien queens in one case?

Does anyone have a Voltron for sale or trade? I really only want him, the face hugger, and godzilla.

Congrats! Kane is one of the ones I am looking forward to, and of course he's 1/72! Thanks for letting us know the spot in the case he came from too.

2 Cylons and 2 Benders is typical, but 2 Alien Queens has not been typical so far. Your case may have been tampered with.

What were your two rares? Or did you get three? If you got three, I wouldn't sweat the extra Queen since it got subbed for another common.

A successful lunch (minus actually buying a lunch and eating it, haha):

Geez man, buy a lotto ticket.

Is Kane's right foot that much shorter than his left, or is it just a trick of the camera?

Actually, I didn't even notice until you said it because he stands just fine. After taking a closer look, his right leg cooled a bit at an angle. I should be able to warm him up want bend it to the proper place.

Odd, typically we've been seeing 3 rares per case.

Someone definitely pulled a rare and replaced it. Good news is that you did get the rarest one in that pack (Dr. Lazarus). Bad news is that you lost out on the Godzilla which was supposed to be in there instead of the Alien Queen dupe.

Couldn't wait for my Toy Wars case...picked up two at GameStop while getting a game. Fresh case...

Top Row, Front 2: Voltron (1/36) and Doc Brown (1/24)

Postby **Blake85** » Tue Oct 27, 2015 7:31 pm

My case should arrive tomorrow.
Hopefully I get godzilla

Well that sucks. Godzilla is one of the 3 I want. Is the reason the rares are more expensive in this set on ebay because of the 1/6 doubles in every case?

Actually, most of the rares of this set are much lower than the Horror Series 2 were during the release week. If you're referring to Sci-Fi Series 1 prices, remember how long those have been out and many people have already completed their sets so the demand isn't as high as it once was.

Postby **HellKat613** » Tue Oct 27, 2015 9:08 pm

I mean these. I can't find a voltron for less than 30 plus shipping.

Postby **wickerjay** » Tue Oct 27, 2015 9:15 pm

I take it you did snag the one for $12 the other day.

$30 for a 1/36, especially a popular one like Voltron, seems about right during release week. Crow was like that the first week. Wait a couple weeks, and I'm sure you'll get him under $25 shipped, maybe even way less if you catch a mistake.

Postby **Blake85** » Tue Oct 27, 2015 10:03 pm

Are all the chase in the front of box?
Or just voltron??

It depends on the assortment letter of the case where the chase figures are.

Postby **Blehschmidt** » Tue Oct 27, 2015 11:24 pm

Thanks to the people who have posted already, I was able to snag an Alien Queen on my first attempt! Left side of the middle row on the top layer.

Now, I just have to wait for a case with Godzilla and I can be done with this set! Especially since Horror 2 is going to be the death of me!!

Well, there was conceptual artwork for Morpheus and the Mangalores (Fifth Element), but no protos have been spotted yet.

I can't seem to get the attachment to quote, but I found this same case in my Game Stop, and I can add that the front left figure on the bottom row is a Bender.

Postby **J_Melon** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 5:41 pm

I was so excited for this wave! My local gamestop had a case and I was able to grab Godzilla, Doc, and of course... the Queen. She looks great with the colony. We SERIOUSLY need an alien queen Pop!

Postby **RogueSolo** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 5:47 pm

Called GS after work today, they said they had some, so I raced over. Someone beat me to the case AGAIN and took the top front two, so I pulled the middle two and the bottom front left.

Ended up scoring Starbuck, Neo, and Do Brown! So either a box got moved around, or this was a new case variety.

Postby **ShyGuyPal** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 9:33 pm

I tried my hand and got a Cylon and Neo.

This is one series I'm definetly just going to use ebay to complete or hopefully trade with people on here. Are the heavy figures (Godzilla, Alien Queen) dead giveaways?

Postby **TheLastDude** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 9:50 pm

Yes. Godzilla is the heaviest, Alien Queen is a close second.

Yes, they definitely are. If you're not there when the case arrives, they will both be gone. I saw three stores where Godzilla was the only one missing from the case. I've got some dupes, message me if you're interested.

Postby **lobsterfish** » Wed Oct 28, 2015 10:55 pm

Yes, Queen and Godzilla feel chubby.

Postby **popfanboy** » Thu Oct 29, 2015 8:13 am

My GameStop opens them, marks on the back who is inside, then tapes them shut. Really odd but it helped me get Doc Brown and a Reverse Flash.

No longer makes them a "mystery" which is great if you get there before for the rares are gone.

Postby **Voodoo_Lou** » Thu Oct 29, 2015 10:04 am

Picked up a case a gamestop. Had been messed with. Godzilla was open, resealed and hidden at the bottom back so I didn't even notice until I got home, but Kane was the first figure I opened so I wasn't too upset. Case had 2 benders and 2 reg cylons. Picked up 2 extras at another gamestop and got 2nd queen and godzilla.

Missing Voltron, Starbuck, Lazarus, Doc Brown and Gold Cylon.

I think I would be okay with that for some reason.
