youbastards Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Zach has confirmed that there will be a new license that will premiere as a Halloween ComicFest 2014 exclusive single pack! According to posts from Zach, DST "has been working on this for years" and it is "kinda big news" and this is a "large-ish announcement". Speculate and wish-list away!

MisterPL Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Obviously it's something Halloween-friendly sooo... DC COMICS!!! Or not. Honestly I was thinking it's Freddy or Jason or Michael or some horror character like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think its Predator, and we'll get a translucent "Stealth" Predator as the first exclusive. We know Chuck approached Fox years ago, and if I recall correctly, there were designs made at one point. It would be a no-brainer license to couple with ALIENS and should be considered "large-ish".

hellpop Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Nightmare Before Christmas. DST did designs for them years ago, but Disney at the last minute decided to go in another direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 The problem with licenses like Nightmare on Elm St., Halloween, Friday the 13th is outside of the main horror character, do people really want supporting "victims"? I know each character has multiple looks, but I'm not sure that's enough to support an entire line. Predator has the iconic monster, but also the supporting cast of well known Mercs. I want a Jesse Ventura with chaw in his mouth variant! Plus, if we get Predator 2, then there's a Gary Busey Minimate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted May 23, 2014 Author Share Posted May 23, 2014 I would love Nightmare Before Christmas, Hellpop. I just can't see Disney wanting to premiere a single product in the way Zach has described. I hope I'm wrong though as that line would be a lot of fun.

fwoosheyman Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Predator. Predator and Aliens go together like peas and carrots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think YB is probably right about Predator. His analysis makes sense. No one has yet mentioned Dr. Who which was a frequent license speculation on MMMV awhile back. I know design work was done. Doesn't totally fit with Halloween though. I'm kinda hoping for the return of MAX Zombies. Not really a new line though. The Nightmare Before Christmas property seems to show up eternally in every possible collectible line, so I could see it debuting. It would be weird going into Hot Topic to buy Minimates though. My final guess (dream/hope) is DST will re-launch their zombies under a new line called MAX Monsters. In addition to the previously designed zombies, we will get ghosts, skeletons, vampires, demons, werewolves, swamp monsters, ghouls, goblins, witches, bigfoots, reptilians, mad scientists, giants, mummies, phantoms, cyclopes, minotaurs, grey aliens, jinn, gorgons, trolls, ogres, and sirins.

bzorio Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Well, could be Game of Thrones. We're talking about Halloween, not only of classic and big terror movies franchises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I am guessing Disney and Marvel's Big Hero 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prowlar Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Come on it's Halloween so the only thing that fits would be Classic War of the Worlds. Or Hellboy, Hercules & Xena, Harry Potter, Buck Rogers, MST 3000, Disney Villains, Golden Girls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
