The percentages are off. I'm not a scientist, but I know that if 41 people took a survey, and 40 of them selected an option, the percentage would be much greater than 8.6%

I found these today. Very good looking series.

As keeper of the database maybe DST can get you a pass?

Found this at a blog called Muppet Stuff. Outstanding lineup for the first series!!

Which brings us to our final stop: Diamond Select Toys. Before we got to the show we were informed by our friend at Tough Pigs, who were there the previous day, to make sure to stop in the Diamond Select. Once there inquire about their Muppet poster. So being able to follow simple instructions, we found ourselves at the Diamond booth, saw this poster asked about their Muppet items.One their product specialists led us to a corner of the booth covered with a black drape. No photos were allowed but, what I saw was immediately burned into my retinas!

Muppet Minimates! If you're not familiar with Minimates they're small block-ish figures that mostly stem from the same mold, but can be added onto and sculpted differently as needed.The characters for the first series are as follows:

Kermit with Robin, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Scooter, Gonzo with Camilla, Swedish Chef, Bunsen, and Beaker.

Gonzo, Swedish Chef, Bunsen, and Beaker will also have explosive/messy variants that will be a combination of short-packed and retailer exclusives.

Each Minimates two-pack will retail for $10.

But that's not all!

Diamond is also working on a straight up Muppet action figure line. The only two characters

they had at the show were Kermit and Fozzie, and even in their early prototype phase looked great.

Both looked similar to the Palisades versions.They couldn't reveal yet who else they have planned for the action figure line, but they did tell us that each package would contain two figures and a few accessories - including possibly a rubber chicken for Fozzie.

Each action figure two-pack will cost $25.

Diamond hopes to have both the Minimates and the action figures on store shelves by the end of the year, if not in early 2016.

I cannot wait for these to come out. I still have several of the Palisades Muppets figures. Zach please pass on my thanks to everyone at DST, also any chance someone can build me one of these:

Is this what you are referring to?

I was going to order some last night, but $6.75 for one bottle of beer is ridiculous.

I hope this is awesome. I love The Muppets so much.

Can you post a pic of Minimates with the set or of a Minimate next to one of these figures?

here is an album I made when I bought the Daryl builder set with the motorcycle. The scale may be slightly off, but it is marginal.

MacFarlane is releasing an RV that should be close to perfect scale for Minimates. Here's a photo:

How about a hint on the new property Zach

Why is Ryan Gosling tagged in this thread?

I love Chris Pratt, but he would be my second choice.

I spotted the boxset at books a million today.

The books a million here is carrying the box set. I had no intrest before but now it'd be read easy to pick one up, maybe two.

I bought my first in February of 2003 at a Sam Goody in Marrietta, Ga. He was on clearance. It's funny that this thread came about today, because I just found him yesterday. I thought I had lost my Brave Little Dragon. Hail Ivan!

I LOATHE Sponge Bob. It is the only thing I don't allow my kids to watch. Times like this I'm glad I'm not a completist.

Here's one offer for distribution.

Did you guys see the gameplay footage from Uncharted 4? It looks sooo good.

I got the ones I wanted today in South Ga.

The excruciating wait while a game installs is a downside to next-gen consoles.

I have not watched wrestling in 15 years but I would buy WWE minimates if it meant cool accessories and classic wrestlers. Also those minifigures are terrible.

I bought Assassins Creed Unity, but have not opened it yet. I think I might take it back and put the money toward GTAV or Far Cry 4.

Also make sure to walk up and down every aisle. The ones I got were on a strip on an end cap of one of the aisles with girl toys, two aisles over from the other TMNT stuff.

I made the 40 mile drive to my nearest KMart and bought 11 of these. I got them all except the RoboFoot and I almost got 2 complete sets of the turtles, on that note would anyone be interested in a Mutagen Mike for Donatello swap?
