TimeTraveler Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I'll start posting my Minimates ideas in here. My first idea will of course go to my favorite movie/minimates of all time. Yup BTTF! I know a lot of people may think there isn't much more to do for this series, but I beg to differ. The DeLorean vehicle line could be replaced with the Iconic "Clock Tower" from the movies. Part 1 Two versions of its own, 1955 style "Newer looking with no busted ledge" and 1988 style "Aged look with busted ledge" New Character Line- An exclusive Einstein "Dog" 1985 George & Lorraine. 1985 Biff. Also a second phase of the 4 pack box set could be released as single characters with Clock Tower. Part 2 Two versions of its own, 2015 Style "Futuristic Clock Tower" "Altered 1985 Biff Casino" New Character Line- An exclusive Griff character with Pit Bull hover board & extendable bat. Also a second phase of the 4 pack box set could be released as single characters with the Clock Tower. **Busted ledge could be removable** Part 3 Construction Clock Tower 1885 Style. "Removable Clock" New Character Line- An exclusive "Marshal James Strickland" "Maggie McFly" "Clara Clayton" "Seamus McFly" Also a second phase of the 4 pack box set could be released as single characters with the Clock Tower. Other Minimates product ideas: Accessories Pack: Movie Memorabilia- Iconic prop items from the movie trilogy. "Cafe 80's sign" "Hoverboards" "News papers/altered history & present" " Welcome to Hill Valley signs 1955 style, 1985 style, 2015 hovering style" "Doc's suitcase with hairdryer" "Letters to and from Doc" "Western photo of Marty & Doc" "You're fired memo" "George McFly's book" "Tales from Space comic book" and beyond! 2 Pack: 2015 Lorraine & 2015 George (upside down) 1985 George & 1985 Lorraine Alternate 1985 Lorraine & 2015 Lorraine. Exclusive 4 pack: Griff/Pit bull & Gang/hoverboards. Minimates Movie Sets: Iconic movie sets with Minimates details. Hill Valley Town square buildings- Four possible sets 1955, 1985, 1985 altered, 2015 styles for each town piece. Sets could be sold as separate buildings- There were many buildings in the backlot for the filming of BTTF movies. Enchantment under the sea dance set- Inside the gym with stage decorated for the dance. High school- Inside style or Outside style with parking lot. "Great scene for the Iconic George & Biff fight. Mall parking lot- Minimates Movie Sets wouldn't be complete without a mall scene, detailed after the movie. Back to the future vehicles: Back to the future 3 DeLorean. Back to the future 3 Train time machine. Back to the future 1 Doc scientist van. Back to the future 1 Biff car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImABarRoomHero Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I wouldn't hold your breath for an accessory pack, BUT I agree on the hoverboards. I would kill to see a Griff/Marty hoverboard chase scene 2-pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitron Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 I would buy a clock tower and definitely a train time machine. More characters would also be great! I love the extendo bat idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeTraveler Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) ImABarRoomHero~ Yes something to add to a chase scene would be great, but I agree doesn't seem like accessory packs are something DST wants to approach. gambitron~ A clock tower could revive the bttf minimates line I think, even if characters from past sets were sold with them I think they would sell pretty well. Maybe not for the hard core Minimates fans that are solely into it for collecting the mates. My second Minimates idea is from the Escape From Alcatraz movie. Alcatraz Prison Cell Line: Detailed to the classic Escape from Alcatraz movie cell. Clint Eastwood "Frank Morris" edition. Accessories- Dummy head, Removable grate, Digging pick, Bible stash. Anglin Brothers 2 pack edition. Accessories- Dummy heads, Homemade raft, Personal belongings pouch. Litmus "Al Capone" edition. Accessories- Mouse, Pasta lunch tray. Patrick McGoohan "Warden" edition. Accessories- Frank Morris report, nail clippers. Chester "Doc" Dalton edition. Accessories- Paint brush hand, Painting of warden on stand, Bloody "Missing finger" hand. Wolf Grace edition. Accessories- Shank, Soap. Paul Benjamin "English" edition. Accessories- Book cart, Magazines, Books. Guard edition. Accessories- Nightstick. Clint Eastwood "Overalls edition" Edited March 3, 2012 by TimeTraveler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimeTraveler Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) My 3rd Minimates idea is from the Survivor reality tv show.(However I think DST passed on the CBS deal?) With 24 seasons and 323 episodes airing, there would be a huge amount of content to be made for this series. Being a die-hard fan of Survivor since its start, I can say there is a lot of market value to these sets. (Survivor fans never having collectables of their favorites.) -Each Survivor would come with torch (detailed from their season) & Buff (Detailed from their season) Exclusive Jeff Probst edition: Accessories- Torch snuffers(A few from different seasons),Immunity idols(A few from different seasons), Extra head with Survivor cap. Each seasons could have its own release in 2 pack or 4 pack sets. (More popular Survivors could have exclusive sets) Merged Tribe versions could be released as well, opening up even more possibilities for market. Accessories line with sets- Torches, Buffs, Tribe flags, Hidden Idols. Edited March 4, 2012 by TimeTraveler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'd love to see Clue movie minimates- each with their own weapon from the film along with the cop and a phone, chef with monkey brains soup/knives/frozen beef, Mr. Body with suit case, Drifter with another phone and soaked clothes, and last but not least the FBI chief/evangelist with his 'armageddon' pamplet. Throw in a chandelier and revolving fireplace diorama and we'd be all set. Plus, who wouldn't want to see Evett as a mini-mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I would buy the ever-loving crap out of Clue (the movie) Minimates. (And, it's "Yvette.") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Clue would be pretty awesome. Monster Squad would be fun too. And Trainguy, I agree. Trains would be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Paco Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I would like to see Minimates for Star Trek Characters! One set would be Riker, Troi, LaForge and Worf from The Next Generation (TNG). Another set would be Data, Yar, Guinan & O'Brien also from TNG. From Deep Space Nine (DS9): Jadzia Dax, Bashir, O'Brien and Quark would be one set. Another DS9 Set: Morn, Kira, Rom & Keiko O'Brien. From Voyager (VGER): Set one: Janeway, Chakotay, Torres & Tuvok Set Two: 7 of 9, Paris, Kim & EMH exclusive two pack: Neelix & Kes Also Enterprise Crew would be nice as well and more aliens (Klingons, More Borg Drones, Salt Vampire and so on.

Hav Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 The Halloween sets a good idea, maybe they'll move from universal monsters to slasher flicks. This is unrelated from slasher flicks, but have they ever mentioned doing an Archie Comics set. They seem like they'd make a good mini set.

murderofcrows Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Honey I shrunk the kids line: Big Cream cookie. Couldn't you just use a regular cookie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeTraveler Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Actually a smaller cookie, but bigger to the shrunk versions of the kids, basically some prop pieces to display them with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 For HISTK, what if they did Select Scale too? That way the Minimates could be the shrunken versions and the Selects could be th unshrunken. They could even do an 11-inch bank of the kid from the second film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeTraveler Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 I agree with you, some regular sized versions of the kids would be great to have as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlushyFrog Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I would love to see Adventure Time minimates. I've been buying the Jazwares 2" figures, but the quality is terrible and they're way overpriced. I would like Minimates to take a stab at it.
