MY take on the new Alien & Predator series

[Slytherin Snape]

As always, thanks Kim for the info! [img]smile.gif[/img] I think I've got the entire non-exclusive kaboodle covered. Your peeps sent me a "they're going out today" email Kim, so I hope that means I really am covered. [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

All except for that 12 inch Stealth one, so I really do appreciate your offer to help Mega (and Sculpey) for those of us in need as far as the Stealth one goes! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

Ok, now keep in mind I DONT collect toys.....I dont spend hours on end critiquing (spelling?) the toys, blah, blah, blah......BUT.......

The buying market LOVES these toys...my presells on this product were almost as good as NFL sportspicks (and thats huge)......I do want to warn you boardmembers about ONE thing....

the 12 inch Alien and 12 inch Predator boxed sets.....going to be TOUGH to find...or atleast initially......I only received 30% of my order on first allocation...and word has it there MAY NOT be any more available....luckily, I was able to fill about 90% of my preorders for the 12 inchers....now DONT go running out to HOARD all the 12 inch figures you can find thinking you are going to put your children thru college some day.....chances are there WILL be more available.....but with the release of the movie shortly they are going to be a bugger to find.....normally, even when mcfarlane toys allocates to us, I get a bigger percentage of my order than 30%.....there MAY be a short time opportunity for those of you who like to make a buck or two on toys (to buy more toys of course )

MOO! (My Opinion Only)

You'd think that they'd produce the hell out of these with the movie coming out. Any A&P product should be hot. But to tell the truth, we didn't move many A&P figs at my store. Which kind of surprised me.

yeah - I figured these would be made more than most due to the hype of the movie coming out.

But from the sounds of it, I am going to have a hard time trying to help those that want the 12" Mudsicland Stealth Pred [img]eek.gif[/img]

[sculpey]

is sam goody part of that? i have a couple near me, so maybe i can help out.

I think the 12" Alien and Pred figs may be the first Movie Maniacs figures I don't buy doubles of (I consider the Alien and Pred Refresh line to be a "sub-series" of the MM line)...just can't afford it. There's too much other good shit coming out this year and my financial situation has taken a hit recently.

It's weird...I always buy doubles of the MM figures...yet feel no need to buy doubles of the Alien VERSUS Pred figures...I guess cuz they technically aren't a part of the MM line in any way....just used some of the basic sculpts from past figures.

Yep - Media Play, Suncoast and Sam Goody

I am talking with the manager at Suncoast and hope to be able to get them in one swoop.

I want to help
