This is not the pleasant surprise I have been looking forward to! Unless of course it means there's a new Marvel big fig in the works...

I have trhee as well, including one with light-up eyes. The Sentinel totally rocks against the Sinestro Construct, and I think we'll see a new Sentinel introduced since WK is super secret about why the Sentinel and Ultimate X-Men are not arch enemies.

As if there aren't still enough Sentinels in the stores you can get...

I thought these weren't selling so well?

Glad I got my 5 when I did! Of course, I still haven't had the occassion to use them all..but there is something about having 5 Sentinels that's just eerily cool. :)

Norton:

I believe they are out atthe warhouses and are not making anymore, now depending where you live they may be 100 on the shelf or only 2... I myself have 2 open and 1 still in the package...

Question... Can a Sentenel [or Sinestro] be outwitted??? :ermm:

Glad I got mine when I did.

What about the Outwitting a Sentinel question??????
:cross-eye

Anyone??? :ermm:

I got both of my Sentinels for half off (one online and one at a local shop) as apparently they just weren't selling, so I'm actually a bit surprized they they did sell out.

Oh, well, glad I got my two when I did even if they don't see play very often.

Too bad we won't get an improved Sinestro construct. :cry:

I played a Sentinel in a tournament recently. The sight of the Sentinel running across the map carrying my friend's Silver Surfer completely justified the $10. :-)

09/20/2004, 14:26
Well hey Wizkids if you want I'm sure the local Gamestop here will send their back to you. They've been on clearance for a loooooong time. I've bought 3.

Puuka

I have 4, I only played them all once. Got my but handed to me

Like most of you I enjoy seeing a huge army of them. When IC first came out I bought one at the original price. Then not that long ago they started to be discounted at various stores in my area. One, inparticular, sold them for $12. But since I bought all my other stuff from them (cases and such) he sold me a bunch for $10 each. I also got one in philly to break the $100 mark to get my surfer.

So my grand total is 6! I have a friend who constantly teases me about it. He says things like "yeah and when are you gonna use em all?" One day, maybe today!

:eek:

Somehow I don't see the Sentinel becoming an ultra-rare, hot item. The fact that WK says that they are sold out only means that the market no longer demands Sentinels. I do hope that this paves the way for more big figs to be created, but in the grand scheme of things if you really, really want one you can still get one on Ebay. I have one, but wouldn't mind having two Sentinels on my bookshelf. I don't think I'll rush out to buy one, though.

crookedtooth
09/20/2004, 15:07
@ rouge2

The thought has crossed my mind. But at any of those levels I'd get one good turn and then By turn 2 all my sentinels would be dead!:confused: Would be a fun 5 minutes though.;)

Remjer
09/20/2004, 15:21
Gee I might have to buy that last one at work now

hmmm

might be nifty to have two after all

Hey, crookedtooth. When you going to use 6 Sentinels @ a time, fool!

I just bought 5 more (in addition to my 1) when I read the news so now we're even. I found a nice site online selling for $11.95!

BRING IT ON!!!

TheRavenHQ
09/20/2004, 16:21
$11.95!?!?!

You call that a discount?
I got my four at $4 each. 75% off. :D

I need to call around and see if I can get more. Sentinel rocks!

EmperorNorton
09/20/2004, 16:28
$4 each would make me consider getting some more myself...

09/20/2004, 16:32
Got my three back in the day, would definitely pick up a few more if the price was right.

Ozymandas
09/20/2004, 17:10
dang, $4! I've been had!

I figures I'd use 1 as a backscratcher, 1 as a paperweight, 2 for salad tongs & 2 for gameplay!

:p

crookedtooth
09/20/2004, 17:30
@ozymandas

yo, my 6 will take your 6 anyday of the week (because I'll have backup of 25 sentinel troopers ;) )

Ozymandas
09/20/2004, 17:39
Vets? 25x28 =700 extra points. That leaves me a Starving Galactus & 16 Rookie Moloids!

DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, PUNK?

DO YOU?!

09/20/2004, 18:36
Olny have the one, but instead of a Sinestro big fig, why not a Kyle Rayner one, in a rocking mech construct body? Huh? Huh? *taps microphone*
Is this thing on? :) Shin, you don't happen to have a website with, say, I don't know, a Sentinel with Doom's cape onnit, do ya?:grin:

If only I had more time than two full years to buy more Sentinels!!!! If only I had seen this day coming!

It's funny you should mention that...

I still only have 1...but if I found someone selling more for cheap, I'd consider picking up a small mutant hunting force...

I've got a FEVER...

and the only prescription...

is more Sentinel.

The local EB sold their stock of these for $3.50 each.They had about 7-8 tje ;ast tme I saw them. I already had 4 so didn't bother getting more. Of course the local 2nd rate gaming shops bought them up.

New Warrior
09/20/2004, 22:59
#### mine just broke too looks like I have to find a new one or 4.

I'm not sure if it was on this thread or another, however, someone suggested that perhaps the annoucement on wednesday is somehow related to a new/ultimate sentinel. It also stated that ultimate xmen were not an arch-enemy to the current sentinels and used this as part of the rational for a new one. Does anyone agree with this? Do you think we are in for a new sentinel, maybe ultimates style? I'm not sure if a redo of the sentinel is really needed. Sure it would be cool to get another pose and some different powers, but wouldn't you rather get another marvel big fig?

What do you guys think? Another big fig is the "pleasant surprise?" Do we need another one? And if we do, should it be sentinel or someone else?

My vote proteus!

Hellboy
09/21/2004, 17:38
I'd like either!

Gimmee a new Sentinel & I'll buy three!

Gimmee a new Big Character, and I'll buy one.

I don't care which they do; but its clear what would make fiscal sense for WizKids.

I've seen the website before, but I wasn't sure if it was yers or not. Kinda got the idea it was due to the lit eyes Sentinel you had stated before. ;)

I love my 2 sentinels.. I'd pick up more too.. But maybe we'll see a NEW sentinel and then I'll ahve to get 2 of them, and pit my 2 sentinels against each other.. mwahahahaha
