lol, only reason i've resisted buying more than a few of the simpsons ones so far is because there's only one store that's not even too close to here that has them, and the last few times i've been in i've bought Mindstyle's Scavengers series blindboxes instead, heh (last time i went, i managed to get the two figures i needed to finish my set :D )

Definitely very cool... I hope the ratio's aren't impossible... those 1/96 simpson figures are impossible to get even if you buy a whole case...

Just bought a case. I wish they still had free shipping for orders over $55...or at least some sort of discount code. Oh well, when one is available I may pick up another case.

I really want these, I just don't want to end up with 4 of the same character.

If I knew more people that bought kidrobot stuff, I'd trade 'em.
so if I/you got extras we could swap! :cool:

What extras do you have?

^Missing Robot Devil and Slurms for a second set. The first case I bought was crap -- no chases or Robot Devil, just an extra Morbo. The second case was awesome -- Robot Devil, Slurms, and Sal all in the same case.

Wow, lucky! It's impossible to find a robot devil. I went through 3 cases and no dice...

Anyone have Zoiberg, Sal, Slurm, or somehow a Devil Robot to trade? Only extra from the futurama set I have is Mom, also have Apu, Chief Wiggum, and Homer from the simpsons series if anyone's looking for those. Or muggs, lol

ok i just bought 2 cases and didn't get any chases
Now i have a tons of extras
I basically have the 9 futurama figures exclusding the chase listed below
I need sal, slurms and robot devil if not make me a $ offer if you guys want them
$8.95 seems like too much for these things. I want them but that is a ton of money for something so little.

I have a Sal for trade. I'll trade for a Slurm or Robot Devil. I am also looking for a Thor Mighty Mugg. Will also consider other offers.

Just saw these in another thread and googled it to find out where to get them. Too bad I just decided I've spent too much money recently. These guys are cool (and some are going for cheap on ebay). Is there a trade thread for them or is this it?
littlenicky
06-23-2010, 11:54 AM
I think there's a few sale/trade threads about them... you probably just have to do a search.. Yeah, its near impossible to get the rare ones.. and, since futurama is on, its only going to get more popular...
