monkeycrumb Posted September 21, 2012 Author Share Posted September 21, 2012 Went ahead and ordered four more from BBTS to modify into other Super Deformed Starships... Thanks for the heads up Zach! You're doing the Great Bird's work, son... Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tones Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Pretty sure this won't be at TRU, so I would pre-order however many you ultimately want from your LCS or web store. July Previews (#286) page 401, item number JUL121720 that sucks, has there not been much interest from TRU? Mates in general seem to be doing pretty well for them. I really wish Minimates could get back into Target and/or Walmart, with all the price increases we are seeing I'd bet that moms & dads would be happy to get 2 figures for $8. Heck, Target has even started carrying imported Character Building figures (sadly not the Doctor Who ones though) in the cards/gaming section, they might be open to Minimates. Thanks for the heads up though Zach, glad I have 2 on order already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross-Junkie Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hey Zach, any word on if the Minimates Enterprise will be on schedule for Dec.? I'm really looking forward to the four I have on order... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mav-man Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) So with 7 of 9 being added to the Femme fatales line, that would give us 4 new femme fatales for a boxset. When I read about the the statue on art asylum, that was my first thought. This would be an awesome thing to get 7 of 9 as a minimate. I kinda gave up hope for her in minimate form because of the way star trek mates are, if they make more mates, they'll never get to Voyager! --- anyways, I'm keeping my fingers crossed! :biggrin: Edited November 27, 2012 by mav-man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Paco Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I am curious as to this Femme Fatale set that has 7 of 9 in it? I am disappointed about the Enterprise getting delayed. I would be interested in getting more ST mates especially TNG and DS9 mates. I made some and I would like more. I know they have a vast array of villian and aliens that could be made. Andorians, Vulcans, Bolians, Ferengi, Tellarites and many more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I am curious as to this Femme Fatale set that has 7 of 9 in it? It does not exist, except in mav-man's head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) Not what I wrote--didn't say she existed--I said, I hoped she would someday since shes been added to the femme fatales line. Edited December 3, 2012 by mav-man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'd love to see a Borg 4-pack with Seven, the Borg Queen, Locutus, and a random drone. Maybe that's the best way to get Trek 'mates out there from different series and movies; do sets of captains, First officers, Klingons, etc. Just a thought.

Kostisfire Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I'm not a big trekkie (or trekker) but i have watched some episodes of both tng and the old series and would like to have the crew from both eras.Pack the original crew in the vehicles,put new characters in waves and have special variations in box sets.Or better yet,have army building box sets.Anyway,this is one line that i hope can be resurected.I bet they are waiting till next year's 2nd st movie so there are more buyers.

Onyx_6 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 That trailer looks good. Do we know who the baddie is supposed to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 That trailer looks good. Do we know who the baddie is supposed to be? People say it's either Gary Mitchell or Khan. So the enterprise hits in July? That's when the movie is released (depending where you live) so maybe we will see an accompanying wave to launch this line?

Actually there's one more speculation on who the baddie might be, and that's "Garth of Izar" from the TOS episode "Whom Gods Destroy"... In short, the story behind Garth is that he was a Starfleet captain that went mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short, the story behind Garth is that he was a Starfleet captain that went mad. That fits the bill more. But he could be an amalgamation of 2 or 3 characters and have the name of one. E.g he could be named khan and have the character of Gary and khan and Garth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeycrumb Posted December 7, 2012 Author Share Posted December 7, 2012 I really hope Benedict is a new character. If he's Khan or anyone else, he is such only in name. He does seem a bit "powered up" So maybe it's Mitchell. If he's Garth, that's even worse, because he's too young to be a Captain, which diminishes Kirk's achievement of making Captain so young. I'd buy anything Trek Minimate related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPL Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I really like the sound effects! Very unexpected! Still disappointed that the chair isn't removable and that the Kirk figure is probably one I already own. Back to Square 1, I suppose.

Cappy Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I rather enjoyed the fly-by move at the very end. Felt exactly like a classic Trek episode! This should be a fun mini-vehicle, looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeycrumb Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 Saw a STTNG Pez collection with the entire cast & ship at Target yesterday. Sad how other companies are celebrating STTNG's 25th anniversary, but still no minimates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross-Junkie Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Well, looks like we lost a few pages to this thread in the turmoil, but it seems intact for the most part. So while the site was down, did anybody get to see the new Trek minimates over at StarTrek.com? I can't wait for the KIrk / Khan set, but I will probably end up with quite a few Khans, considering I want atleast five of those coats for movie era away team. I know it's note mate related, but did anyone check out the huge Enterprise cut-away ship being released by Dragon Models???? MUST HAVE!!!!

Shogi Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Huzzah! Resurrected Trek mates AND a multiverse! I wasn't collecting Minimates when the last Trek ones came out so I'm pretty excited about most of these new sets. The Kirk and Picard sets are definite buys for me. I'm hoping there's an alternate look to Kirk without the jacket, I'd really like the "relaxing" look he wore through most of part 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Very excited for these guys! Any idea when we might hear who will be in the tru wave Zach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
