No More Monkeys Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 still adds them to the order. I assume they send you nice "ni" email _after_ you place an order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agp548 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 yeah hes said you will get an email saying "sorry but due to overwhelming demand the martian manhunter promo has been ended early." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gondorian Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Hmm, let's see if I get one from the Horizon Express I just ordered in the UK. (Orders usually take about 4 days to arrive though.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopstick Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I hope the Martian Manhunter fig appreciates well. I don't want it to end up like Jor-El and Hoth Han Solo. Any ideas if they are doing a figure promo for May 4th? I may hold off on 2x vip if theres one in May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Some U.S. folks on Brickset said they've called and S@H confirmed they are out of stock. I don't mean to add another car to the rumor train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarCityBrickCompany Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 What was the story with those two? Were there too many of them? I believe there are just so many more flippers (and re-flippers) who are willing to accept any profit - They will rise, but just not as quickly as they might have in the past.

exciter1 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 What was the story with those two? Were there too many of them? I think there is a version of Han in Hoth Echo Base and a Russell Crowe minifig??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been pictures of that red droid, not sure if that will be it or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopstick Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I'm going by the bricklink prices and both are not selling as well as the Hulk and TC-14 which I think were the previous year's promos. Also Hoth Han Solo wasn't the most exciting figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Raichu Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 What was the story with those two? Were there too many of them? There are too many versions of Han Not sure about Jor-El. Maybe since noone seems to like this version of Superman, noone likes this version of the father either ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njseale Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Has there been a faster sellout for an item at LEGO Shop at Home. I think last years X-Mas sets lasted longer than this. I ended up getting exactly the number of MM I wanted. 1 for my PC and 2 for investment. By the way this figure is a HOLD. Don't sell now. Wait and in a year this will be a $30 dollar fig.

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Yeah it did. lets remember - no one has any idea if they make the same amount of each or how many each is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtis Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 There are too many versions of Han Not sure about Jor-El. Maybe since noone seems to like this version of Superman, noone likes this version of the father either ? It seems to me that maybe it's because they are more obscure than the mainline characters, no? I mean, someone mentioned that the promo Hulk is doing better than Jor-El and that seems fairly logical when you think about how much more mainline the Hulk is. Same applies to TC-14 who looks like a chrome C-3PO vs. Hoth Han who looks like some dude in a parka. This makes me think that Martian Man Hunter won't live up to the resale hype that the early sellout indicates, because frankly, who is Martian Man Hunter? Add the fact that my wife said something to the effect of "he looks kinds dumb and ugly" and I was happy to pass and wait for 2x points.

Maybe since noone seems to like this version of Superman, noone likes this version of the father either ? It felt to me like Jor-El wasn't that special. He could be easily customized from a personal collection OR look better. It wasn't that great of a representation of the actor. But I kinda liked Man of Steel...

There are a lot of people though who DO know who he is, thinks he's awesome, and are thrilled about him being an official LEGO minifigure. Mostly fans of the TV series Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, with writer Paul Dini, writer for Batman: The Animated Series. He, like Aquaman, was under-appreciated for a long time. Since New 52 though, he and Aquaman are pretty frickin' awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Goblin Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I'm glad I was able to get one but I would liked a couple more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandwraith Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Only managed to get 2, going to check the local Lego store tomorrow on my way home from work as they usually have stock a week or so later than shop@home does, but who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
