Sikorsky (is the bug) And I am HANGING out for a Deathbird minimate. She'd look look so bloody good at this scale with her bright purple and wings.

It's approaching 'Spawn's Cape' levels of windswept 90s insanity. So good.

Kaine and Jackal look dope! Kanie's design never struck me as especially practical looking... more a case of riding the wave of flowly caped, dark/edgy characters that Spawn epitomised in the 90s.... but in pink! I think they've captured the essence of his windswept hair and cape and 90sness perfectly.

Custom Marvel Minimate Preorder Thread
Nessex replied to luke314pi's topic in Custom Creations & Artwork!
Yuuuup - add it to my pile pls! π -
Masterful work. Beau's comments on the Pulse nightclub shooting, and the violation of safe spaces for minority communities felt especially poignant, and that translated seamlessly into the episode.

Teams That Would Fit Perfectly In The Current Boxsets
Nessex replied to AFMcGill's topic in Marvel Minimates
If we're talking about the live action show that ABC produced... that window probably existed in the lead-up to the show's premier. The second that first episode went to air, it killed any hope for The Inhumans being touched again for a long time. -
Teams That Would Fit Perfectly In The Current Boxsets

I assumed they meant Kamala Khan. She appears to be getting almost Deadpool levels of saturation at times, so I'm genuinely surprised she's never been given a Minimate outside of the animated line. -
Teams That Would Fit Perfectly In The Current Boxsets
Nessex replied to AFMcGill's topic in Marvel Minimates
Woh! That blows my mind a little bit. She's EVERYWHERE the last few years. I'm surprised thay've only made her in animated form. -
I may stand alone on this one... but I would 1000% be down for a Malice-possessed Polaris. That costume SCREAMS 'toyetic'... and don't think we've ever seen her in toy form.

I don't think this is much a spoiler for the show, but for the sake of anyone who hasn't seen it yet:

Episode 3 just dropped. I'm loving the tone, animation style and character design for the most part. My only issue so far has been pacing. Episode 3 felt like it should have been stretched over 2 or 3 episodes. I am also VERY much digging the Morph cameos, but I do hope we see those characters actually show up and get some attention in future episodes.

They're back, back, back, back, back again! Just watched the first two episode of X-Men '97n on D+ last night. I gotta say - the creators of the show KNOW who they're making this for: If you were a kid who liked this in the 90s, you are going to be well fed. My spoiler free review: There are certainly a few things here and there to adjust to (the animation style is a little less lush/more streamlined & some voices have obviously changed), but the feel of the series... the heart of it feels firmly in tact. There's a LOT that could have gone wrong in trying to cash in on a classic, but the creators seem like they have really tried to stay true to the OG while giving a few modern flourishes. There are some fun cameos and a LOT of easter eggs for anyone who knows the original series by heart. What did y'all think of it?

In relation to what we were talking about earlier in the thread. Completely unsubstantiated at this stage, but I'll be curious to see of this claim turns out to have any veracity.

If it *is* indeed the Inferno storyline, I can live with a regular bikini for Maddie, sans underboob. She's just been promoted in Marvel Future Flight and they're using something I'd consider 'close enough' to the source material. It bears some resemblance to the proposed HasLab version, but with a little peekaboo window for the cleavage. . 'two women, three villains, two new characters, and one micro-figure' combined with '80's X-Men story' sounds like a winning combination to me, whatever it is.

I see a lot of people online blaming the Mouse literally everything they don't like about Marvel right now, but I'm wondering: as someone working within the toy industry, have you got any idea on what has created this shift/change? Is there any consideration on how different sets might be aimed at different audiences? I get that a set featuring characters in a recent animated Spider-Man film could be assumed to be for children. So - try and keep it from being too raunchy. For a box set featuring a story from the 80s- anyone who's old enough to remember those comics and costumes is in their 40s+ now, right? Maybe that set is more of an adult collectible? Was his brother good looking, though? (asking for a friend π€£)

I take some umbrage with the idea that a hint (or even hefty portion) of bosom is somehow damaging to and inappropriate for children considering the extreme violence of the subject matter at hand. Cyborg lady with needle fingers who stabs people? β Fine! Dude with knife hands who severs limbs? β β Awesome! Future soldier with massive guns who shoots up the place? β β β Perfect! Women with breasts? π¨π¨π¨ all hands on deck! We need to protect the kiddies! Last time I checked, the number 1 cause of the death of children in America was firearms.... not jugs. EDIT: in case I was unclear, this is not pointed at you, Zach - I'm guess I'm kinda just shouting into the void about my frustrations.

If there's a way to get a Marc Silvestri Goblin Queen, I'll be thrilled. Hasbro seem to think they aren't able to release a classic GQ in comic book stores. Even their Hasbro Pulse version was considerably tamer than how she was drawn in the original Inferno run. And now we're getting a D+ '97 animated version that's covered from head to toe, seems like there's a directive to make characters a little more prudish?

New X-Men coming in 2025.... probably. Even if it's not locked in, it's good enough for to get excited and to start wishlisting. The 'obscure X-Villain' clue has me hoping we might see a member the Marauders from Mutant Massacre or perhaps S'ym/N'astirh from Inferno. What obscure 80s villain are y'all hoping to see?

We love the 80s and we LOVE an obscure villain. Is this a set we're expecting this year?
-
I clearly don't check in here often enough. Happy (very belated) Birthday, Luke.

Right? That X-cutioner figure hrom Hasbro has my hopes up high that we'll see more slightly obscure villains turn up in the show and in toy form. Would be great to see a couple of Minimates sets too.

Super exciting! Will you be correcting Hasbro's mistaken skin/hair tone? -
Custom Marvel Minimate Preorder Thread

Just had a little brainwave: Lady Deathstrike has played both sides of the fence & she was once in the body of Ana Cortes (so not always the same person). And there are a few costume options we haven't seen as Minimates yet: X2 movie Messiah Complex era (Might have been a Humberto Ramos design?) Sugar Skull/Dia De Los Muertos (Ana Cortes)
