Lobsterman Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 The must be. THat character is so stylized, she wouldn't come through as a Minimate, and I'm not sure who the audience would be, either. I guess DST could break into Hot Topic?

groundhog7s Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 Actually... 'Celebrating her 20th anniversary next year, Lenore has been the star of her own comic book and animated series, and will soon be the star of a diverse product line from DST including action figures, MiniMatesâ„¢, PVC figurines, banks, bottle openers and ice cube trays.

storm 1:08 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I never knew her name but I knew of her. But if they can do a firefighter Spidey with a MAX firefighter, then why not Lenore with a Maximum Zombie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 If they do make Lenore Minimates, my wife would be interested. But unless they could get them into Hot Topic, I don;t think they'd stand a chance at selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 I'll also say that I didn't realize that the ice cube tray industry was doing so well that properties like this should be made. I almost get the Star Wars trays thing (kinda), but are there that many people asking for Lenore ice cubes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashmaster12 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I'm betting on it being a single pack Comic Convention exclusive, similar to the Alice, and then maybe a Select figure. Either way, I'm curious to see how it'll go, but still disappointed in the license choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcastick Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Maybe they will go to a place like Hot Topic and be rather cheap.......new place to buy custom fodder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I didn't know anything about her, but I think she could be done in a way like Ratchet, Clank, etc. Custom fodder. Actually...

Kostisfire Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It's gonna be a whole line but the good side is that they are looking at more video game licences. I suggested assassin's creed,red dead redemption,god of war,swtor,another shot at uncharted,call of duty and some in house ideas like western,soldiers and some other stuff.

iseerobots Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Awesome news. I am such a lenore fan that i actually gave my daughter Lenore for her middle name. I hope that I don't have to hit up Hot Topic to get these though. I always feel so old when I'm in there even though half the merch is for bands that were big when I was coming up..

Mystery Man Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I might buy ones I can use parts on to supplement other figures in my collection. Otherwise? Kangs, but no Kangs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webhead Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 can't there be one thread here without someone mentioning kang, falcon, or wrecking crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 Yeah. I totally agree. But what I don't understand is how they can justify this and not still be making DC Minimates. Or Street Fighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I actually have Lenore #1... Wonder if its worth more than a polybagged copy of X-Force #1 with a trading card inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Yeah. I totally agree. But what I don't understand is how they can justify this and not still be making DC Minimates. Or Street Fighter. I think I saw this thread in October and refrained from commenting. Not sure why. We never had the license for DC Minimates (DC Direct did), and we don't have it now. Easy to choose the license you have over the license you don't. If DC Direct had continued the line, we'd still be making them today. Maybe. We're currently making Street Fighter characters in the MvC3 line. Hopefully, sales for this line will be better than they were for Street Fighter back in the day, which is why it was cancelled. Since we have a relationship with Capcom, there's no reason for it not to continue if this line is successful. And Lenore is targeted at a completely different audience than either of those two properties, so rather than hitting up the same customers twice, we will hopefully pick up new customers, helping the brand as a whole.

iseerobots Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 sounds like a good idea Zach.. Can't wait for them. Any idea as to a release date? Prolly not huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
