90s huh? Seems like a perfect opportunity for a new Juggernaut minimate to me.

Modern Beast BAF would be incredible. He’d even fit the wave since he was an X-Man and hanging out with the Inhumans.

I would love anything related to the 90s X-Men. Realistically I’m thinking we’re getting a classic Avengers wave with Endgame getting ready to take over the world. As for something different that hasn’t been mentioned, I’d like a Marvel Two-In-One/X-Men split wave. Iron Doom/The Maker Johnny Storm/Thing Magik/Emma Frost (“bondage” costumes) modern Gambit/modern Storm

I feel like we were cheated out of an awesome Thor with the IW wave. And to be fair, the proper figure would’ve been a spoiler. Hopefully this time we get short-hair Thor with a lightning eyes, a red cape, and Stormbreaker. Some lightning effects and an alternate head with an eye patch would be extra nice.

Would anyone be interested in Minimates of all the MCU heroes in their “disguised” looks? Mainly the hat, sunglasses, and hoodie looks. Just thought it could be a fun novelty set that would double as civilians for dioramas.

Luckily any “missed opportunities” can be easily fixed with the eventual A4 wave.

Deathlok? I’ll take two. Please and thank you.

What characters do you want that you know you’ll never get as a minimate? Mine are: Four Horseman of the Apocalypse (Sentry, Daken, Banshee, Grim Reaper from Uncanny Avengers) Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (Uncanny X-Force) Vanisher (X-Force) Elixir (X-Force) Wolfsbane (X-Force) The Apocalypse Twins Henry Russo Franken-Castle MK 2 Whiplash (Iron Man 2) Kurse (Thor: TDW) ginormous Sentinel, Galactus, Fin Fang Foom Danger Ord Barracuda

I know we’ve gotten several lately, but I’d like an old school comic Black Panther. Maybe a new Loki, Daken, X-23, War Machine, Blade, and modern/crispy Havok.

Jarvis, Rick Jones, Micro, Franklin Richards, Pepper Potts, The Watcher, Stick, Dum Dum Dugan, Wong, Happy Hogan, Betty Ross, etc. I know this is a pipe dream, but I’d totally buy a pack with one figure and one giant BAF piece for Galactus, Sentinels, Fin Fang Foom, etc. And Marvel Legends gets a Stan Lee BAF. Now I want a minimates one!

That’s the one. And yeah, I’m positive it was comic-accurate. I’ve looked through this thread (along with many others) as well. I think it may have been erased with the purge.

Several months back (maybe even more) someone on here posted a picture of a custom comic Iron Monger made from a Mega Man minimate. Can anyone provide a picture of that so that I can copy the recipe? Thanks.

I’d like to voice my utter heartbreak at the cancellation of the 80s turtles as well. Those guys looked perfect. I’m always looking forward to new Marvel product. Series 75 looks killer and I can’t wait for Daisy and GR to join Coulson. My OG Moon Knight is gonna dig having that new staff too. And I’m fairly certain Infinity War will cause me to break my “no MCU” rule. Hoping for a new hair piece for MCU Bucky. Haven’t been a fan of the one from the Cap movies.

Why does Diamond stick to two and four pack formats for ‘mates? Would you all prefer larger packs with more figures that are more pertinent to the theme? Some examples: Warriors Three? Three pack. Sinister Six? Six pack. Captain America 3 mates? One pack for Team Cap, one pack for Team Stark , and maybe another with Crossbones, some Army builders, Zemo, and Ross. I feel like being able to buy an entire team, event, era, movie/show, or theme all together instead of slowly building these groups over time would be more enticing to fans (especially completionists who cry themselves to sleep at night thinking about their missing X-Force team members). You could even throw in an A-lister into the obscure character packs to ensure the big names are always in circulation. Thoughts?

Orrrr... Wrecker/Volstagg Piledriver/Hogun Bulldozer/Fandral Thunderball/Heimdall

Saw these are popping up on eBay and they look different than the solicit pictures. Do we have tray shots yet?

I’m never getting The Wrecking Crew, am I?

Yes, yes... With enough bickering, we'll eventually squeeze out a full line-up announcement. This has always been the plan. Let the hate flow through you! Hail HYDRA! Haha. But on a serious note, I feel like at this point Hydra Cap is a shoo-in. And now Riri, I suppose. Also, I can't imagine them releasing a Marvel Now! Magneto without at least a Cyclops or some other S&M X-Men to go with him. And of course, Spidey has a new costume. Is there a Spidey costume we haven't gotten immediately? That and the updated Brock Venom look would make sense for a 15th anniversary pack. Otherwise I would totally snatch up an Unworthy Odinson, Iron Doom, and Mr. Knight. Man, I'm excited.

I'm actually pretty bummed about the lack of merchandise altogether. I need a Laura fig in my life.

So after seeing Logan last night, I couldn't help but to think that this is the first X-Men movie where I have actually wanted minimates of most of the characters. old Logan w/ Caliban Xavier w/ Laura X-24 w/ Donald Pierce Dr. Rice w/ Reaver army builder

I really want Wu-Tang minimates now...

So, just to spark up some conversations on here (I don't have anyone to really talk about 'mates to in my personal life), I thought I'd propose an idea for a new weekly thread. I thought it'd be neat to pick a different character every week to discuss. What's your favorite version of the character? Least favorite? What version(s) are we still missing? And so on... So to kick things off I choose Wolverine, since he just got a spiffy new wave dedicated to him. My favorite Wolverine minimate this far has been the X-Force black and grey costume that came with a Hydra goon. He's perfect to me. The costume is my favorite, the storyline is incredible, the two X-Force teams were great, and this figure is just dead on. I'll never understand why DST didn't continue those claws. Least favorite is probably is the kid version, James Howlett. Just seemed really unnecessary for me. We've gotten a lot of Wolverines, but the one I'm wanting most now is the black suit with yellow trim from when he worked with Maverick. I think that would make the most excellent two-pack. So there's my two cents. Hopefully everyone here agrees that this will liven up the place a bit. Now what do you all think?

One of my favorite villains, and the minimate that kickstarted my addiction was Omega Red. Ever since then I've wanted a "Hulk Vs." display with Wolverine squared off against Red, Sabretooth, DP, and Lady Deathstrike. Looks like my dream will finally be realized. I love this wave. I love the oddball figures like MODOK and now Mojo. And this one hits me right in the childhood. Sold American.

Man, I totally don't remember that. Awesome, nonetheless. Thank you, sir.

I've noticed several people add the Secret Invasion Beast to their X-Men line-ups. Although I will always consider Beast to be an X-Man, I have always assumed this look was primarily an Avengers outfit. Is he ever in the comics on this team in this form? Backstory: I'm super particular about my displays.
