ASMDaniel Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I believe (and correct me if I'm wrong, Zach!) that the Pirate Santa was said to be a potential exclusive that's being shopped around, rather than a definite release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I'll have more to say later, but man, that's a lot of cool Minimates... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Liking the majority of what I've seen Especially the HUlk stuff and the Venom set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Seriously, though, no DC? I'm less than impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 It is surprising to me, having never seen the Expendables, how recognizable many of those faces are in Minimate form! The TRU Amazing Spider-Man exclusives look good, and the Lizard looks like a home run, love the new legs and poseable tail! Thor's swinging hammer effect looks great! Who is the female Venom? I love the Eddie Brock transformation, great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I shed a few tears scrolling through that gallery! So much Minimate goodness! Love the bulked up Colossus and Rhino...and who saw the Venom TTA set coming?! Awesome. Also, LONGSHOT! That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Who is the female Venom? I love the Eddie Brock transformation, great job! Ann Weying, Eddie Brock's ex-wife. She took on the symbiote for a little while in one of the 90's Venom mini-series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Thanks Boyd! Looks like DST listened to the feedback about the additional accessories for Calico Jack, and the less fantasy stylized weapons for the new wave. I love the cannons!

dr baghead Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 That Hulk set is made of Win. Maestro is one of my most wanted mates, as is Mr.Fixit, cave-Hulk and Composite Hulk just look cool... so for me it’s a perfect set, I’ll take 8! Venom set also looks pretty great. Also Movie Lizard Minimate is cute as hell and I’m 85% convinced Movie Peter Parker has the Freakazoid hair I’ve been looking for! So that’s pretty spiff too!

DaveOMac Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Maestro, Australian and X-Men and New Venom are amazing and the stuff of my dreams but I never thought I'd have a Stone Cold Steve Austin Minimate. SOOOOOOOO excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 The highlights for me were the X-Men wave and the Hulk Through the Ages set. I can't wait for those!! I really like the Walking Dead zombies too. Although they aren't quite as interesting as Maximum Zombies, I love the new pieces and the facial expressions. And how cool is the bulked up Rhino? So much awesome stuff overall! DST definitely hit a homerun this year. Did anyone else crack up when they saw Spock in the Enterprise body?

groundhog7s Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 As far back as I can remember, this is probably the best showing of Minimates at TF I've ever seen. As Zach promised, I feel blown away. Although, as much as I'm thrilled to see Trek getting a bone thrown at it, I'm screaming inside that we're getting another Kirk and Spock. Had that been an Enterprise D with two TNG characters (in time for the anniversary) I'd be much more excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveOMac Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I'll be honest as with any year, I'll get them all and diamond knows this. I'd wish they could just dock my pay every week and send me everything new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Whoa, I'm a little overwhelmed. Everything looks so good... Quick thoughts: -I see we're still pushing the X-Men. That's okay, because at least there are several here that I actually want! Thrilled about Longshot and Dazzler. Glad I never made those customs! New Colossus looks terrific, as does new Havok. Even Rogue and Storm, two of my least favorite characters ever, look fantastic. -Modok might have gotten some competition for Minimate of the Year in the Brood Queen. -Gotta say, it's amazing how much seeing actual samples changes my opinion of these things. A lot of the Minimates I was on the fence about (like Prof. Hulk) just look great. -Stone Cold's got a bulked up chest! :biggrin: Gimme a hell yeah! -If that's not Lara Croft, I don't know whom it could be. -Alpha Flight begins! This is exactly what I was hoping we'd get (a box set filled out by a two-pack or two). Glad I never got started on that Box custom! -I was surprised to see the Venom set, but man, do they look great. Suck it, Lee Burns! Too much goodness, guys. Too much. Fantastic work, and I won't even point out that there's not one new Avengers member here! :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
