  1. I saw them in my local comic store and thought they were neat, but resisted buying them. Then in a Suncoast (remember those?) I found the black-suited Spidey variant from Wave 2, and grabbed it on a whim. Then the next day I went back to my comic store and bought the rest.

    That was 15 years ago. If you had told me then where I'd be with Minimates today, I would have said "How do you know the secrets of the future? Give me your time machine!".

    Would you cast it in clear? Not sure I've seen any of your clear-casts, but I love your chromes!

    Oooh, camouflage Zartan. Or bluish-green Zartan in homage to his color-changing roots. Hurry up and finish Zartan so you can get started on Zartan variants. 

    Have fun at Disney!

    Who is that at the very top left, next to what looks to be a space armor Spidey?  I recognize him but can't place him.  Ultimate Green Goblin?

    That is indeed Ultimate Green Goblin.

    I went to my nearest Walgreens and discovered there's no longer a slot reserved for Minimates at all. It's a little concerning.

    Had the same problem about a month ago with two of my local Walgreens. Both of them restocked last week with wave 2.5 with the toy aisle reset. So there's hope. Hopefully.

    And it looks like there are two Whizzer Heroclix, but I kind of assumed there were.

    Aw man, I always forget about Heroclix. A Whizzer Minimate would definitely be the first Whizzer action figure. But it has to be done before Funco see all this Whizzer love and makes a Pop! of him.

    Prior to the Squadron showing up? That might explain why they went with Speed Demon!

    I don't know. Off the top of my head I think Speed Demon and the Squadron Surpreme appeared first on the Avengers cartoon. 

    If Whizzer were to get a Minimate, that would make the first Whizzer action figure (or probable merchandise) ever.

  7. Recently had two sets of this wave pop up at a nearby Walgreens. Which was great, considering they previously only had Wave 1 and I'll take any excuse to stock up on Hulkbuster armors.

    The down side is two other local Walgreens have rearranged their floor plans, and made their toy sections smaller, and now no longer stock Minimates. Has anyone else seen this happen at their Walgreens?
