    A 2-pack with a Cobra Trooper and a Cobra Officer would be great. Just change the Cobra insignia from red on the trooper to silver on the officer and you would be set.

    I know next to nothing about GI Joe so I'm only guessing that, even in the Joe-verse, troops outnumber officers. Since the 2-pack seems to be a thing of the past, might a 4- or 6-pack with one or two officers respectively do the trick? (And a big "Yo Joe!" to oodles of weapons and accessories!)

    If it was a situation like our Multiple Man sets, where since Diamond was already making an army builder, they were able to let us order a lower quantity (500) of an exclusive set, provided that it was produced at the same time as another release, then yes we definitely would.

     

    Luke, I know I'm not alone when I say your candor is appreciated. Thank you. ??

    (And this is why I've been advocating the addition of army-builders in the 4-packs.)

  3. As a completist, I don't have a problem with six-packs. That said, it'll suck for army-building characters who only show up once per assortment. I'm currently putting together a team of Black Widows (thanks to Walgreens' clearance) and it's bad enough having spare Taskmasters laying around. I wouldn't need extra Red Guardians and Yelenas.

  4. Looks like I need to update my original list from 2017.

    • Hellcat
    • Shang-Chi
    • Typhoid Mary
    • The Owl
    • Leap-Frog
    • Medusa
    • Purple Man Lady Bullseye
    • Uncle Ben (Opaque alive and translucent, ghostly dead)
    • Madripoor Wolverine
    • Yellow Daredevil with backpack
    • Kate Bishop Hawkeye
    • All New X-23 (let's finish that team!)
  5. My favorite thing about Minimates is all the different licensed properties. I'd want to take this as an opportunity to select eight characters from their respective universes and gather them on the island.

    Alien - Isolation Xenomorph

    Battlestar Galactica - Lt. Boomer

    Buck Rogers - Wilma Deering

    DC - Green Arrow

    Lost in Space - Robot B-9

    Marvel - Daredevil

    Star Trek - Captain Sisko

    Tomb Raider - Battle-damaged Lara Croft

    I think that would be a fun story.

    (If DST ever offers classic Planet of the Apes Minimates, someone's getting bumped for Zira!)

     

  6. With 80 different (or mostly different) Iron Man Minimates from which to choose, this is a tough one.

    For comics, I have to go with Classic Iron Man from Series 25. I like the old-school lines, the metallic paint, and unlike the Heroic Age version you can see Tony's eyes.

    From the MCU, I may have to go with the Mark III Iron Man from Series 21. With the sculpted legs, the alternate look, and that tiny removable faceplate, it's just a fun toy.

    Honorable mention goes to Walgreens Iron Man from Wave 2.5 for fitting in so well with the Best of/Greatest Hits assortments and including an alternate noggin with a HUD!
