I'm going to be very tempted by the Galactus, but at the same time I think I like the scale of the 18" Marvel Legends Galactus more.

I *love* the pics of the MiniMate Galactus though - that's really great design.

EDIT: I take that back: upon further review, I found that that's a statue, not a figure.  That sucks.  =\

They call it a statue but it seems to be partly articulated with jointed elbows. If you look at the Wolverine and Spiderman, they look like the exact make of the smaller counterpart with full articulation. I have a feeling that the term "statue" is used incorrectly...
I really like these larger Mini-mates but the $85 msrp is kinda steep for only 8" of figure. If I can find them for cheaper (under $50), i'll definitely pick them up...

I hear what you are saying 85.00 is just too high. If they were about 50.00 i would more than likely pick up Galactus, and maybe the Sentinel.

I just saw a pic of that the other day. Is it the same one as in the Willy Wonka 2 pack or is it a 400%?

Damn, Adam...how many boxes of Kubricks do you buy when you order up the SW sets?  Or do you just buy cases?

Doc, Randy and myself go in on a master case usually.
The good thing about the stormies and such is they usually pack them
3-4 per box of 12, so not too hard to get a bunch.
I get them off eBay when I can too. Picked up a few Sandtroopers a week
or two ago. Oh, a master case is 4 boxes of 12.

Gotcha.  I guess I didn't realize that a master case was only 4 boxes.  That makes sense since the 3 of you go in on them.

Do you usually save by doing that over buying boxes individually?  I guess I've never asked you that before.  I bought a box of the Bounty Hunter wave way back when...ran me about $100 shipped from Hong Kong.

Yep, much cheaper than eBay.
I picked up some for the guys over at KW, thats why the Wonka Wall  ;D
Even with shipping to the guys, it is cheaper than most on eBay start at.
