I just recently made an account, so I thought that I'd stop by and say hello. My name's Mandy, I'm from Massachusetts, and this is my first time joining a Minimates forum. I have a small X-Men collection at the moment that I hope to grow.
These little guys caught my eye sometime in 05' when I was out shopping with a friend at a local music store. There was a literal wall of them in the corner of the shop, and who should happen to catch my eye, but the Marvel Wave 11 box of Rogue and Mystique. When I was growing up I was a huge Rogue fan, so I thought they'd look cute on my desk. I snatched them up, soon followed by a few more sets.
I admit, I had kind of forgotten about them when they got packed away in storage from a move until recently. I was out shopping with my boyfriend and came across the newest release of Rogue, along with 90's Beast, so I had to get them, and then of course go digging through my closets for the rest.
While trying to do some research to see what other characters were now out there in my absence, I came across this forum. I'd love to learn more about some of the newest waves, and perhaps track down some more of the 90's version, "Jim Lee Era" X-Men. I'm also praying they decide to make some "Lost" Minimates in the future, I was so late on the Kubrick train.
Nice to meet you all, and I look forward to posting here!
