  1. Is an I wish DC Minimates were still around so we could have a thread like this for them, but the brilliant minds over at DC Direct made sure that didn't happen. Nothing suggested in this thread is worse than Ma Hunkel. Hail Ivan!
  2. I think the missiles shot out of the magnet figures with the horses. Those were awesome toys. Shoot. Maybe not. Still awesome toys. http://that-figures.blogspot.com/2011/02/vintage-view-micronauts-baron-karza-and.html?m=1
  3. My Jeff Daniels is a sad Jeff Daniels.
  4. I just want a motorcycle. Maybe the side car could be interchangeable.
  5. Does that suggest they might be carrying Marvel 2 packs in store, because that would be swell.
  6. I feel like the figures would need to have minimal tooling for this to work financially, kind of a return to simple figures of yesterday. Also, can we just pool our money and hire Fwoosheyman to make these for us?
  7. Even if Wave 19 is themed, there is no reason to think that the Iron Man/Ronan 2-pack compliments the theme. Wave 18 (Captain America themed) included the Wolverine/Ultron Drone 2 pack that complimented the Age of Ultron box set, wave 16 (did it have a theme? Marvel Now?) included the Colossus and Emma Frost 2 pack that complimented the A vs. X box set, and wave 15 (Fantastic Four themed) included the Kuurth and Nul 2 pack that complimented the Mighty/Worthy box sets.
  8. Excalibur in the Wave 48 format LCS wave Captain Britain (bulked up pointy arrow type suit)/Spiral (with Widget as accessory) Shadowcat/Legion (with Lockhead in flight as accessory)* Phoenix (Rachel Summers)/Warwolves Moira MacTaggert/Warwolves TRU wave Captain Britain (bulked up Union Jack suit)/Black Knight Megan (with shapeshifting face accessories like Mystique)/Nightcrawler (with sword and also hand stand accessory like Puck) Wolfsbane/Pete Wisdom Hercules/The Wrecker** * I forget if Legion ever fought Excalibur. ** this is the unrelated two-pack that relates loosely to the Black Knight set. I had to forgo some villains to include more team members.
  9. This may be the wrong thread for it, but in response to the underlined I don't believe ASM2 was ever available online through TRU.com. While not as hard to find as Wave 18, ASM2 also did not show up in some stores and for GOTG we've only seen a sample pack up online. I'm not yet ready to say that there is no reason to worry. I have two stores near me and one has not had any minimate products that were released in 2014 available for sale at all, and the one that did only had a single case of ASM2 which hasn't been restocked.
  10. But when combined with the fiasco at Toys R Us where Wave 18 (and Tomb Raider) were never sold to a big region of the country, as a fan of comic minimates in Boston, it feels even worse, especially since we never got a good explanation on what the heck happened in regards to Wave 18 and Tomb Raider. Was it a mistake? Or was there a change in how Toys R Us views Marvel minimates and how they will sell them in the future?
  11. I want the black because the red is hard to find.
  12. While I do prefer the comic sets, I believe that in some examples Marvel doesn't allow comic versions too close to a movie release because they may cannibalize each other. Insert Marvel Zombie image here.
  13. Can we get this figure as part of an associated two-pack? I don't care if Rachel didn't appear this way in the original story.
  14. I'm on a phone but that hammer looks like an optical illusion.
  15. I would love to see two versions of tiny Wasp. One similar to the tiny Silver Surfer where she is flying off of someone's shoulder and a second one with a blast effect where she connects to a hair piece or a head piece like she is shooting someone in either the face or the ear or something.
  16. For teams, I would argue that Wave 48/TRU 15 was a better format for future waves. Wave 48 Hero (Team Member)/Villain (Frequent Enemy) Hero (Team Member)/Villain (Frequent Enemy) Hero (Team Member)/Army Builder Civilian Ally/Army Builder TRU 15 Hero (Team Member)/Hero (Frequent Ally) Hero (Alternate Version of Team Member from Wave 48)/Villain (Frequent Enemy) Loosely-Related Ally/Loosely-Related Ally Unrelated two pack
  17. In the style of Rocket Raccoon, which character designs would work as unarticulated accessories? What items from the Marvel universe do you want to see as accessories? From the first group, a small Wasp and a Thor Frog. From the second group, Magik's new sword design.
  18. Zach, any chance Game Stop will carry Tomb Raider? Werent there figures shown for Tomb Raider that were never produced?
  19. I know nothing about this game but like that theres a gamestop on my walk to work. Can people share images of designs they would like to see? I want to get a feel for what to expect.
  20. AIM soldier Sunspot Cloak (from Cloak & Dagger) Abomination Rachel Summers* Magik* Warlock* Bullseye* Black Panther Lady Deathstryke *not that there's anything particularly wrong with the ones we got, just that I would want new ones.
