Ususually I post a story and send it to press the minute a new set has been spotted. I promoted Series 12 a little late, but I have not seen them in stores yet. Walgreens does not promote that I know of, which is why I do. I announce all Walgreens sets once they have been found, but usually not before, because I do not want people running around looking for them. Some people seem to not like this plan, I may change it. Falcon and WS sets hit early, so I will not be promoting them for a while (embargoes). I am not sure, sorry. I can think of a few possible reasons, but I have no

No, but there are bad articles. Not once does that article mention the name of the toy line (maybe it's on purpose, so as not to promote said toy line for free?). And they assume the character is an antagonist because its in a two-pack with a hero. Poorly written.

They did hit a bit early, but set photos revealed the new character back in January. Surprised they don't mention it. https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a30619460/marvel-falcon-and-winter-soldier-show-new-captain-america/

I meant the Disney Store. Maybe there are more sets that I'm forgetting about?

Sorry fans are miserable. We've put out a lot of product over a long period of time, and we still offer regular releases, which is more than can be said for some lines. Hopefully people are pleased with near-future license announcements, which may well reinvigorate the brand. I just thought I'd weigh in on something that was unlikely to happen. Disney may ask for these tomorrow, but they have very limited history with the Minimates brand. Two Marvel box sets and a line of Peter Pan? I think that's it.

Series 12 just hit, so Series 13 may be a while.

Probably not. But never say never!

I believe we'll be soliciting 81 in early 2021. Still working on some stuff with Series 80.

I am not aware of any. I don't know if NBX MM have been discussed. I'm not sure what is going on with the AF line, there's at least one exclusive that has not shipped yet. I guess we'll see how these do! I wish we'd done MM based on PS4 SPidey, there were some designs out there... I am not aware of plans to go backwards on MCU films. Now, non-MCU films...

I agree, Dashbag!

Onyx pointed out the Fire Rodan NYCC exclusive in the Godzilla thread, but there will also be a B&W exclusive Rocketeer, with a silver helmet, that's actually pretty cool. That one is in stock, Fire Rodan not yet, so they will ship separately, FYI. But we still have ECCC and SDCC exclusives, as well, in stock. https://shop.diamondselecttoys.com/search?q=nycc+2020

Also, we will have an excusive for "NYCC"

I think it is being discussed. Series 1 and 2 did well for us.

Three new movie characters, one movie character we've gotten before. Two of the new charcters we have comic versions of, one has never been done before in any format. I'm excited about them! The TV stuff, too.

No Trek news. They were not a crowdfunding idea. Not sure if Chuck is a Trekkie, but I have to imagine he is, with the number of Trek figures and ships we've made and the fact that we got a Minimates Enterprise. Pretty sure we have other Trekkies on staff. I read a lot of the books when I was younger, and I've seen all the movies, and watched several of the shows, but I would not call myself a Trekkie. I have not watched Voyager or Discovery or Picard or Lower Decks. And while I'd love to see TNG Mates, I'm not sure i see us ever going so deep that we'd do DS9's barber. 😀
