Fujis Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Brillaint as always, Luke! The Doc Ock Web Blast Face is sheer genius! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 These are very innovative, I love your thought process. Any idea when we'll see packaged shots? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Great Job, Glad I ordered three sets. But I am considering a fourth set. I think the set itself is great. The special parts Luke is making to give out are Awesome and make it even better. I really like the Lizard torn shirt decal and can't wait to make that variant for my display.

karamazov80 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Wow, those are awesome. I wasn't going to go all out with this one, but may go for the three sets now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Ah shi... Now I wanna do it but I can't justify spending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Sheesh, Luke. If you keep raising the bar like this, it's going to get tough for DST themselves to keep up I can't pick a favorite accessory out of this set - the decals are inspired, and the webbed-up base is incredible. You definitely did not disappoint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzorio Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Really cool, Luke! Can't wait to get mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Awesome! So glad I ordered when and what I did! I love he decals, Luke. Two questions about the accessories: 1) Is the web piece a wrap around? Or does it attach to a head/chest block? 2) The vials look LEGOesque. Are they comparable with your standard building system? Or did you use a template and then scale to Minimate size? Thanks for these exclusives, Luke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you use a template and then scale to Minimate size? Thanks for these exclusives, Luke! Good questions! The webbed up Minimate is a solid piece with a neck peg, which you can put any Minimate head on. The vials and beaker were actually made by a friend who is into Lego customizing, and they fit with Lego pegs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBurkie Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Sooooo glad I ordered three sets! This set was already like icing on the cake but these are the sprinkles! I'm going to be saving extra heads/bodies to put those stickers on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Great choice of extras Luke! May have to order another case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Thanks everyone - these were a lot of fun to make! By the way, each kit will have 2 sets of the stickers, in case you make a mistake with one of the stickers in the first set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediJohnson Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Thanks everyone - these were a lot of fun to make! By the way, each kit will have 2 sets of the stickers, in case you make a mistake with one of the stickers in the first set. Forgive my ignorance, but how are the stickers applied? Are they the normal peel and stick type, or do I have to soak them in water, slide them off the sheet, and apply? are they pre-cut? etc Thanks!

luke314pi Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 They are just peel and apply. This is on our vinyl adhesive film, which is super thin. You will have to cut them out with a scissors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Now for a technical question: What's the printing resolution on these stickers? 150dpi? They look pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 The decals at Minimate Factory are all at 300dpi, which is what I recommend. But these ones are vector files printed directly out of Illustrator, so they are actually 600dpi, hence the nice close-ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I wasn't detecting a Moiré pattern so I figured it had to be at least 300. Very nice, Luke, and very innovative designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) The bonus kit includes 2 alternate looks for each character (via our easy-to-apply stickers) and 4 accessories, for a total of 12 items! As I mentioned before, you will automatically receive this kit by ordering 3 or more Deadly Foes sets. This run is limited to only 80 kits, but we still have plenty available. Here are the bonus kit items: This kit will be the only place to get these items - they will not be for sale individually at any time. I hope you like them! Bump in case folks may have missed the actual pics. . .on another note, I really really want a Frightful Four Sandman (and the other guys) in my collection.

youbastards Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Thanks again for doing this Luke, seeing this picture makes me want to see DST do more kinds of "fun" alternate heads like this themselves, especially for Spidey characters.

TENIME_art Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Here are some personal examples of Luke's stickers: The red half of the torso & the chest symbol: Torsos: Her torso: Face & torso: (the white line you see is the light on the corner of the torso block, not the edge of the sticker) Face & torso: I designed them in Photoshop, he printed them up for me (I paid for the vinyl paper), and I applied them after slicing them out with an extremely sharp Exacto knife.

thereasonsy Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hopefully this will sell out quickly and another Luke Exclusive set will be made available. Beating a dead horse here but would love a Jim Lee X-Men Uniform set with extra parts to make multiple charcters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
