asu928 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hello I was wondering if anybody can help me find some custom made DC minimates. I am looking for Kyle Rayner, Reverse Flash, Black Adam, Grifter, and Atrocitus. If you can make them then I will be more than happy. I already have the DC minimates that DC made and now I am ready to get some custom made ones. Thank you for your time, ~Asu928 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Several of them are made by this guy: http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&item=160989134035&pt=US_Action_Figures&_osacat=0&hash=item257bb33cd3&_ssn=venom113jp&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.Xminimates&_nkw=minimates&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 ..............& they are worth every penny (cent),. I have bought from this guy in the past & his stuff is stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviebabes Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Very, very nice indeed. The White Lanterns in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I bought a Zatanna from him, and was quite pleased. The only drawback with his stuff is that he generally uses older Minimate parts, so some of his stuff can look a little dated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

force2099 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I think any chances DC minimates might truly be gone with Mattel about to purchase mega blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whywing Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 With "Aquaman and the Others" issue 1 coming out next month I am desperately hoping for a miracle. I want me some Others minimates! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricM Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I still have to pick up the two or three I'm missing. God there are so many characters I would to see. With Batman vs Superman JL and Suicide Squad coming out I wouldn't mind seeing these dc movie mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMiracle Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 (edited) Ask DST #352: Minimates Jason R.Hello! With the announcement of DC Vinimates, I’ve got to ask: What do we have to do to get DC Mnimates? Spam DC Collectibles? Buy the hell out of the DC Vinis? Tell us, and we’re gonna do it. I mean, this is our chance to get them back, right? You’ve got the comics, film, game and TV show licenses. All we need now is minis of them. Don’t get me wrong, the Vinis look cool and all, but the Minimates are where it’s at. Thanks for taking the time to read my question and answer it! DSTChuck: There are no plans for DC Minimates now or in the future. Sorry, I think that time has passed.  Edited April 3, 2017 by MisterMiracle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-rodst Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I do not care for vinimates but would have supported them if it was a path dc minimate. Since that's not the case I will focus on supporting Marvel mates. Thank you whoever for my heavier wallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Chuck's comment makes no sense at all. Pop! is still putting out figures for DC properties in direct competition to Vinimates. No one is putting out mini figures of DC properties, including LEGO, which has a very limited (BvS) or poor (SS) selection of DC items that are not Batman.

BuffaloDelorean Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It also doesn't match any of DST's previous statements, which were to the effect of "we're bringing it up as often as we possibly can". That's a weird 180. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Chuck being so definitive is unlike him, and telling. I do appreciate him not beating around the bush at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a weird 180. I assume it was brought up until the answer was made clear, and we moved forward in the areas we could. Look at the depth of the relationships involved, regardless of number of releases, and I think it's pretty clear why certain kinds of figures are impossible and other kinds are okay.

So you're saying all it would take is a series of major motion pictures involving Minimates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Or a series of video games, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I'll be 100% honest here, that statement from Chuck gutted me. No exaggeration, an I do not want to seem too dramatic, I'm not sure I want to keep collecting minimates. I have been patiently waiting and hoping for the return of DC for so long, this is devastating to me (for reals). I will probably get some of the DC vinimates, to display at work, I do really like what was shown and hope for some favorites to pop up, like Firestorm and The Atom. Also Elf (if we ever even see that) and The Iron Giant. After that, I don't think there's anything for 'ol Nervous Rex to look forward to. I am in the process of getting my workshop finished at the new house, so it'll be a customizing life for me. I do love the format of the figures, so now I will just make all the DC characters I have been holding out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I get the distinct impression, based some of his replies, Chuck often doesn't understand the questions he's given.  As for DC Minimates, I'm sure he thinks he's just being realistic and is tired of hearing the same question regarding DC but it seems like he's just being a negative Nancy. We have iZombie, Gotham, and Watchmen Minimates, all courtesy of DC Comics, but he chooses now to throw the cold, wet towel on the community? Cracker, please.  I'll be buying all the DC Vinimates that make sense for my ongoing DC Minimates collection regardless of how pessimistic DST's current president chooses to be. Things change.
