There are exclusive Santa Spider-Man minimates on ebay. They were given out to stores by diamond i believe. It comes in a little bag like the Gold Spider-Man.

I got my Santa Spider-Man in the mail. Its just a little Spider-Man with a Santa Hat glued on. He comes sealed in a bag with a Happy Hoilidays sticker. His feet are different from the regular release. They are a little different in color and have the C3 holes in them.

I saw a lot of these 4 on eBay last night for like $24.  Was that the one you grabbed?  I considered blowing some Christmas $$ on them, but passed.

No.  I bought them from Toytokyo with cheap US shipping.  The Penguin and Lady before she became Catwoman didn't float my boat too much

I'm also thinking about getting a Woody Woodpecker and Chilly Willy Kubrick as well but I haven't yet...crack crack crack

Damn, I didn't know that Kotobukiya made these mini Predator figures, something like Konami's stuff. I checked HLJ but they came out in Aug & no longer available.  :'(

Great pictures in this link, just scroll down till you hit the box sets:

Well, I spread some of my Christmas $$ around this morning and ordered a dozen new Kubrick figures...

Animated Batman S1 Killer Croc
Animated Batman S1 Man-Bat
Movie Batman S1 Catwoman
Movie Batman S1 The Joker
Movie Batman S1 The Penguin  (My Total Bat-Figure Count now = 10)
Sesame Street S1 Big Bird
Sesame Street S1 The Count
Sesame Street S1 Grover
Sesame Street S1 Ernie
Sesame Street S2 Bert
Sesame Street S2 Oscar
Sesame Street S2 Elmo  (My Total Jim Henson figure count now = 12)

I had to spread my orders around over SweatyFrog, eBay, and Ningyoushi, but I got them all very cheap ($6 each or less). 

:)

Total Kubrick Count = 27 Non-Star Wars, 22 Star Wars (Indy = Non-SW)

****, I wish I hadn't seen that post!  Damn, those look pretty cool, and rather tempting, especially for only $27ish...  Nice detail indeed, though the cockpit on the Viper doesn't look quite right.

I'm clueless about these though.  Are they minimates?  Don't look like it.  What's the scale?  Are there other ships/figures coming out too?  Give me more details!

And what's in the box of 10 pieces?  Do you get all the pieces shown above, or is it one of those ratio/chase kinda deals?

I love these Konami figures. These are not minimates.

The individual boxes of 10 maybe a tad smaller than the Kabaya Star Wars Lego boxes. The Bandai Thunderbird ships I got, the boxes were the same size. They have the same perforated zip tap on the boxes and the ships come in a clear baggie and no outer foil bag like the Kubricks have and may come with some kind of candy packed in. So as soon as the box is open, no playing around.

Scales vary, there about anywhere from 1 inch to 4 inches. The character figures I have are as large as 5 inches. Depending on the figure, some assembly maybe required, sort of a small model kit.

Konami is known for there chase figures too, I think it's 1 chase per 2 boxes of 10. The chase figures are very demanding on the market, the Penelope, first Gay Ellis in full body space suit and Supercar have gone for $200. each if not more.

You should get a complete set of regular figures in the box and might get a chase figure or two. So far I have done well out of the boxes getting the case figures & only a couple of time I had to go to eBay to get the last one. Heck, Daggit, Lucifer or Ovion could be a chase.

Best to pre-order these as once there released from HLJ and the orders filled, they become discontinued depending on the market for them. I think these will fly.
