  1. Nemesis Prime Here is a Work in Progress, This is my take on Nemesis Prime. I used a War Machine chest block, hip piece and legs then I painted the chest piece, helmet, arms and boots with a black nail polish and I used Starscream's head. There are still some touch-ups I need to do but overall I am satisfied with him. Only I could not get the windshield to be red and transparent so I left them blue. Next, I am going to attempt to make a different colored jet out of Starscream but at a loss for what customs I can do with Bumblebee and Shockwave.
  2. I just placed my order for the second wave of Transformers Minimates. I am really liking these and my only negative about them is the fact they can't transform into their vehicle or non-robot items they represent. But non the less I am loving the detail given to them for what they are. I do think Optimus Prime's face could have been better but I do like the looks of Soundwave and Blaster in the second wave and to get Grimlock and Megatron helps complete a simple line-up if we do not get any more. But I would like to see Rachet, Jazz, Ironhide and Prowl at some point or even Arcee.
  3. I am so looking forward to the next wave as Soundwave is my ultimate favorite Transformer. I am likely going to get a fourth set of the first set as I want to make some of the other jets and a Nemesis Prime. and I do feel that Bumblebee's head is better looking for Optimus Prime than but likely will not do the swap as I don't like the look of Bumblebee with any other available head. However, I am stoked about this series and I hope they can continue for a long time to come.
  4. While I did not care for the television show, I do like the Minimates and would get a set or two to have all the rangers and the alternate versions thereof. I would like to see these in four packs like Big Bang Theory were. But I would like to get Rita, Zed and some putties.
  5. I want to say I have one of these and I put it in my top five favorite Minimates I own. Congratulations on the two of you who will be getting one. I would love another but I also don't want to be greedy.
  6. SignatureChoice, Thank you for the support in my idea. I think DST would satisfy all the True Trekkie Collectors with minimates if they did the box sets to complete at the very least the bridge crews for each series. For TNG they could do Dr. Crusher (then remove the lab coat and head/hair) to add a spare pair of science blue arms and a second head/hair to make Deanna Troi in duty uniform. Data with a spare set of hands and a second head/hair for Geordi LaForge, Worf (then remove his sash and hands and head) then you can use spare hands and head/hair to make O'Brien or Barclay. Then you have Riker, and he could have a unbearded head and a bearded head to have both his first season look and then how he was for the remainder of the show. That is basically the bridge crew for TNG, DST would have sold two sets to one person, but I myself would likely get four to six sets. For DS9 they could do Jadzia and the have the spare head be for Dr. Bashir. They could then make O'Brien and have him have a spare head to make Thomas Riker as he was on DS9 for an episode. They could make Major Kira and give her a second uniform for when she become Colonel and wore a different color. They could make Odo and maybe make an different head or such for him that could show him changing shape (a reuse of the parts from the one Terminator series.) Alien mates, a boxed set could be Quark and a Ferengi uniform from their first appearance in TNG. Gowron with an alternate Klingon head and the parts to make him wearing the ritual Klingon garb. (thus it would help make a second Klingon with a few extra parts that may be from other mates one may have laying around.) Also any alien crewmembers in duty uniform would just need crew parts and extra hands or such. Voyager: basically B'Ellana with extra head and hands for Tuvok, Paris with parts for Chakotay, Kim with parts for an extra crewmember, EMH with parts for extra science crewmember. Then there is Neelix, Kes and Seven of Nine Could also do a set with dress uniforms: Riker, Picard, Sisko could all have the same parts more or less. O'Brien, Data, LaForge could all have the same parts more or less. Crusher, Troi, Bashir, Dax could all have the same parts more or less. I would love to see DST make a Minimates Bonus Parts for the collectors to make the final sets we all want for Star Trek. It would basically be a few parts that would allow us to make the figures they don't want to make in sets but give us the means to do it ourselves. And one collector could purchase a number of the part sets and make what they want, the variants they want. I repeat myself over and over, I know but I LOVE TREK and MINIMATES and want more TREK MINIMATES!!!!
  7. Thank you, I tried to come up with a back story for every custom I have shared but I would run out of room if I did that, so I focused on the main ones. As for the parts, I appreciate your liking what I used. I worked with what I have or could afford to get from eBay cheaply. Thank you, for your kind comment.
  8. I appreciate your post about Psy-Cat. I was worried about who to pair with Catwoman as I was going to use Black Cat but felt that was too much the same character. So I played on the word psychic and came up with psy-cat. I too wish DC characters were easier to get my hands on. I would have so many variant customs made if that was the case.
  9. Would love more Star Trek minimates no matter what they are. I would like to see a Minimate Enterprise-D and a Voyager, Defiant and maybe even NX-01. Would like to see Discovery Minimates as well. Star Trek would be a great franchise to do Box Sets with extra parts as the uniforms are set to use for different characters with not much change. So you can buy four box sets and get a whole crew and the other characters you need from the extra parts in a box set or so.

Lorm the Mischief Master (Prince of Atlantis and God of Mischief, Lorm Marius goes to battle against his brother who is the King of Atlantis the realm of Gods and Oceans.) Psi-cat (Selena Braddock is a cat burglar with psionic abilities) Red Luthor (Johann Luthor was trying to re-create the Super Soldier formula for Hydra. He had a mishap in his lab and broke several vials two of which made an odd vapor that he inhaled. The two vials contained the dust of death and his version of the Super Soldier formula. His skin tightened and his face become red and looked more like his skull. Also, during the accident, he was exposed to a nearly lethal dose of Kryptonite.

He uses his skills to make a suit that allows him to fly with mechanical wings that still looks stylish when he has to drop in on his goons as well.) The next post will be starting to show my heroes. (I am out of ideas for villains from what parts I have.)
  15. Part 1 of my Spider-Bat series Going to start with my Villain. The villains of my Amalgam series I call the Spider-Bat universe.

Goblin America: Steve Rodgers was given both the Super Soldier serum and the Goblin formula. Goblin Thor: Thor was dosed with Goblin formula the moment he arrived on Earth
  17. Marvel Earth 666 part two Mummy Thor or Thor the Accursed Vampire Wolverine Still working on Hawkeye and either a Black Widow or Man-Spider (Peter Parker).
  18. Just toying around with DC and Marvel custom Amalgams. Thundra (Thor and Wonder Woman) Iron-Bat (WIP need to work on helmet to give it Bat-ears.) Aqua-Mariner (Sub-Mariner and Aquaman) Doctor Strangefate (Doctor Strange & Doctor Fate) Super Soldier (Captain America & Superman) Green Skull (Red Skull & Lex Luthor) Just some fun while I was away. More to come with the Spider-Bat Series.

Franken-Castle Werewolf America Dare Devil (Demonic or Devil) Namor (or at the least what he could look like on Earth 666) Vampire Wolverine is almost done and waiting on parts for Hawkeye and Black Widow.
  20. It has been a little while since I was the forum, so I am back and here are a few of my recent custom mates. Inspired by Marvel's What if...? on Disney+ Captain Britain, Peggy Carter Starlord T'Challa Evil Doctor Strange (my take on him without using modified parts. Peter Parker, Zombie Hunter I will share more as I created my own Amalgam Series based upon Batman and Spider-man being mashed up. Also have started my series of Marvel's Earth 666 for Halloween.
  21. Would love to see "Plato's Stepchildren" variants of the Enterprise Crew in Minimates form. Also, would like to see more Star Trek Alien Races and more Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise Minimates. As well as new Discovery and Strange New Worlds and Star Trek the Animated Series Minimates.
  22. I would love one but just saw this offer and wish I was able to get on the site sooner. You are a great guy, DST Zach to do such a give-away.
  23. I have been tinkering a lot lately with making more GI Joe characters from what parts I have in my possession. I have made a Duke, Flint, Hawk, Lady Jaye, Quick Kick, Gung Ho and Roadblock. I also made Destro, Baroness, Major Bludd and working on Tomax and Xamot. Lots of Creative Licensing happening but trying to make them appear legit. Once I get The Twins ironed out, I will try to post photos. Also, will try to make at least one Cobra Trooper from what I have for parts.
  24. I would take Kirk only if it is him from a specific episode where he was not wearing the standard uniform or variation of the uniform. Kirk from "A Piece of the Action" or Kirk from "Plato's Stepchildren" or Kirk as a Romulan or Kirk in the environmental suit or such. Same goes for Spock and Uhura and so forth and so on. I would take any TNG and beyond and any ENT or DISCO sets and the more spare parts the more sets I would purchase as I could then make custom mates of those that are not produced. But I want STAR TREK ALIENS: Klingons, Vulcans, Romulans, Ferengi, Denobulans, Kelpens and more. There are ways to make Klingons with a few extra heads and chest blocks to make us collectors and Star Trek Fans be happy with building up the Alien Races we want for our Mates. Klingons would need a Lursa and B'Etor from the House of Duras, Gowron and Martok and then all the TOS versions of the Klingons. Romulans could even include Troi, Data and Picard as Romulans along with Tomalak and a few others. The Ferengi would have to have Quark, Rom, Nog and the Grand Nagus as well as Quark's Mother. Dr. Phlox and Saru would be needed as well as other notable aliens from DISCO and of course a Bolian and a Benzite would be nice to have. But also to complete a crew from the series after TOS would be great as well.
