We are now entering the tyrannical reign of F-Lock. All hail the mighty F-Lock!

These are seriously cool, Luke... I thought F-Lock was awesome, then I scrolled down a bit and I saw Fuzzbuster...

They look like tiny little pieces of art that you would see in some up-scale gallery....

What can I break, what can I break...

I gotta go with the Power Pack box set (once again) I'll keep bringing these up until they get made.... Just you watch me...

Maybe a Sleepwalker. How about Cloak & Dagger? Mojo? Rocket Racoon?

Otherwise, Maggot from the X-Men, maybe... I don't know that his story was ever finished... I think he just disappeared.

That's really cool Joka... I really like the shot of the back... He looks great with all of the spines. Great job.

Hasbro generally doesn't have anything to sell other than the exclusives... Marvel toys, on the other hand is too new to know. DST will usually have a lot of stuff that you can get... In the past, they've always had Minimates and Marvel Selects on hand to sell...

Brilliant! Zarkin' Brilliant! I want an army of them...

Kudos, Luke!

They all look awesome Punisher. I think my favorite is the Carnage, though... It looks really good with the tentacles.

"Sandy" Sandman is a great idea, too... He looks really cool like that.

One question, though... Where did you get they grey weapons that are in the back of the van? It looks like there's a grenade launcher type of thing in there?

Keep up the great work.

Thanks MYTE. I built it pretty quick... like in a couple of nights. Painted it over two nights in between other figures and Hollyoaks on BBC America...

Charity Mates Project contribution posted with description in first post.

I've finished up my contribution:

This one was a blast. Details in my custom thread, if you're interested...

Damn, Shamrock... Just Damn!

The 'Formers look great... Love the "diecast" idea on Jazz... That's pretty clever. Megatron looks great. Prime is Cool.

That Mummy, though... It's a thing of oogie greatness. Love the way that it turned out. I want it pretty badly... I just don't want to touch it.

Ha Ha Ha! Great work once again, Lee...

You pick some of the best characters to 'Mate... Keep them coming, please.

Looks great, Luke. Is it a 2" figure? Hard to tell.

Love the goatee. The inverted legs look cool.

82, please.

Happy Birthday, by the way, Shanester!

It's subtle, but they do make the same noise... It's just mixed in with a lot more mechanically sounding transformation...

sry for the almost triple post but...

look at wally's boots! it looks like the may have the ridges on the bottom!!!!! did any1 else notice this?

Actually, I was just going to post something about that... Definately different feet there... Nice little touch.

All of these look great. Grood and Clayface are really nicely done. I think I still prefer the C3 'Wing, but to me it's one of the Top 5 Mates Ever.

I don't really care for Batman this time around... The new head looks odd... I don't like it without the removable mask... There was talk of this type of thing with the new Zomibe 2pack, and it didn't really gel with me then... Now that I see it here, I really don't like it... His head looks too skinny and weirdly tall with those huge ears...

You can't tell me that it's cheaper to retool an entire head for a specific character than to just make the mold for a mask...

Yeah, JL... You coming to WWC?

The show's great.... Loved it with the 9th Doc, but Tenant has made it even better.

As far as the Minimates goes, one of our members made some awhile back for a school project. Nice work, and he went so far as to make the packaging too...

New figures look great Luke... Love the new Terrax, but that Falcon looks so sweet...

Damg, Ten! GA looks so damn cool with that hood... Very nice idea, there.

Anytime I need to remove tampos without damaging the plastic, I use Fingernail Polish Remover with a little water... Probably 3/4 FPR to 1/4 H2O... Work that onto the tampo with a cotton swab, and with a little elbow grease, the tampo will come right off... It'll seem like it isn't working for awhile, but once it starts to grab hold, the tampo will come right off....

"Savage Land" Storm and Rogue?

That looks pretty damn cool Punisher. Very creative.

Back "in the day" your site was what really got me hooked... I had picked up a few 'Mates here and there, but was never really a collector until I found Central. Your reviews were (and still are) very good and helped me to figure out what to go after next.

Danny, MiniMates Central will be missed... alot.... alot alot.

JEALOUS! Let's see some pics!

I'm officially on the hunt for these NOW! Where'd you get the 5packs from Nervous? I'm unsure of a good on-line source for Joes...
