... I am not sure the carded figures were the best way to go. 

i seem to remember us having a discussion on expensive cardboard

i dont know about anyone else but i buy minimates for the minimates not the packaging

Man those really have to be the most dead on arrival sets I’ve ever seen, I can’t possibly envision these making it past the preorder stage,...

yup

Nobody is buying the '80s Joe line. Blame character repeats if you like,...

I think you nailed it, this combined with the high price is not working.

why is it so hard to give the people what they want, DST continues to make odd choices when we fans have told you from day one what we will buy. its all very confusing  and frustrating

I am SUPER excited for these! Are Venger's wings part of his chest piece or are they separate? So many cool characters! So many cool parts!

 we're gonna need a mop over here  

😁

that is cool but $30 for that tiny thing who makes it DST? 🙃

Are these the new turtles?!? I also was hit or miss on the old set for the unsculpted heads but these look amazing!

No, these are some customs i made years ago

... I feel the turtles would look way better w sculpted heads. The turtle is the weakest figure

👍

set 3 baxter, casey, foot and 2 turtles

4 B&W 4 turtles and shredder 

so next would be splinter, kraang, rocksteady another foot and a different turtle  hopefully

Somebody needs to figure out who actually buys Minimates these days . Once that is established then somebody needs to figure out who would potentially buy Minimates .

I actually like the characters in this wave but let's be totally honest , I'm 67 , I have adequate versions of most of the characters & I know who they are .  The original yeloDD 'mate looks bloody awful now but are there that many new Minimate fans going to get excited about this new one ?  I'll be very pleased to get one but it ain't going to generate new blood which is what this line desperately needs.

I realise that the TRU Bullseye was supposedly scarce , for those who wanted one then I'm sorry but that pack was released in 2009 ! Nearly 14 years later , we have a new version of what I consider to have been a perfect Minimate which is being aimed at whom ?  I don't profess to know the answers & I'm concerned whether DST does .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this entire post  bears repeating, hence the quotation.
