Well, I saw this over at KubrickWorld and now that I am up to three 400% pieces, I just can't resist.

400% Batman at Barnes and Noble for $30 with FREE Shipping!

Since I'm a B&N Member (10% off), AND I get a discount via work (5% off), and I had a $25 Barnes and Noble Gift Card to use (from Christmas) I decided to order this guy.

The grand total after all my discounts and the gift certificates was - $2.13  :o

Now that's a good deal.   ;D

Gee I wonder who posted that on KW?  ;D

Bats is a great figure. My favorite in my collection and a former grail. I could've gotten the 5% discount from work also but I was too impatient and ordered it from home. Totally worth the extra pennies...

Man, why can't SW 400% be that cheap?  >:(

Great deal, Jeff.

Batman is great!
It was the 2nd 400% I got, my favorite one after Fett.

I think you`ll find these a bit cheaper than SW ones because they were
solicited and sold in the US (Via Diamond), and not Japan only.

Very nice Adam, my shipped today so they should be here next week. Just couldn't pass up on that price.  ;D
Yep, much cheaper than eBay.

Wahoo! They have arrived, pretty darn cool little buggers!  8)

For you hardcore kubrick guys, do you think there is a chance that Medicom will release the Halo 2 Master Chief kubrick to the general public?  Even if it was a repaint it would be great to have.  I don't feel like paying $50 online for one  :-\
The scariest thing that I've ever seen,
Is the terrible AT-AT walking machine.
It's as big as a house on walking legs,
and whatever it steps on it crushes like eggs.

I don`t think so.
50 is high now, if you wait and are patient you can grab it for cheaper.
I got mine for 15$ plus shipping ($5.50).

These are pics from the Diamond section. These were released a few
years ago though, are they making more? I wonder what the deal is...

They worked out a deal and will be bring them over here. I am excited as this was a series i always wanted but never got.  ;D

Since I am here, new minimates were on display. Nick Fury, long haired Sentry, X3 movie mates, and 2 minimates that i have no idea about. One was a black costumed ninja looking character that looked like Black Panther but is not and the other was an older looking African American male with grey hair.

Very cool news.
I have them all already though! I wonder if they are just working with old stock,
or if they are making more. I know that Space Jockey set is in stock everywhere,
I grabbed mine for $6.00 on eBay awhile back.
The Kane Chestburster is AWESOME! It is a chase though, 1:96 I think.
I think I am missing another chase, egg chamber or something, have to look
and see.
Would love to see some Predators if Medicom could swing it, that would rock!

Any pics/links to those new Minimates?

Oh NICE!!! Horns up high for that one \m/ \m/

I'm definitely getting a case of each as I missed out the 1st time as well...

Thanks!

Hmmm, from the one pic, it sure looks like they will have blind boxed ones.
That means CHASE ones (like with Palz, Kubricks and such). Ugh.
I get the ones I like, won`t be hunting down any chases though.... ok, maybe
a Gold Cylon if that is a chase  ;)
