Kostisfire Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 But it is DC. It's just not-anything-even-remotely-exciting-DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I will reserve judgement. I certainly won't buy these Minimates based off of them being Gotham Minimates. I may buy them for their parts. I may buy them in the hopes that they help ensure future DC comic mates. But on their own? I'm not starting a shelf for them, no.

luckycreature Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Don't worry guys. All DST product sells itself. Ha. Funny but come on guys Zach doesn't have to come on here at all. It's pretty great that he does share with us when he can and I Appreciate his posts. If it is Gotham I'd buy a penguin mate. But probably won't buy many sets.

UK Collector Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 And now the moral conundrum begins....do we buy these, in our millions, in the hope that it sends a message to the higher ups at DC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterMiracle Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 You know, as cool as DC Minimates coming back would be...I can't shell out money on Gotham in hopes that it would entice them to bring back the comic line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Had it been Arrow and Flash, it would be a sure win for everyone involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Has there been an official announcement all I see is people making assumptions based on a Select announcement which may or may not be related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Zach said that the line would be box-sets and Selects, and that it's DC related. So the only logical assumption is this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar17 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Check out DST's facebook page. Five minutes ago they posted Gotham minimates would be available sometime this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zexion_Armando Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Now we can move on. Any idea if we will see or hear about any SDCC exclusives Marvel or something else at toyfair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Now we can move on.Any idea if we will see or hear about any SDCC exclusives Marvel or something else at toyfair? Probably not any SDCC stuff, but maybe a box-set, a tru wave, the second A2 series, stuff like that. I really want to see the Nightmare minimates though.

Shogi Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I do think Arrow or Flash Minimates would have been better, but I think I'm in for a few Gotham Minimates, plus the custom potential could be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 (edited) Well, the people over at Faceook are excited, so that's a plus. I hadn't seen Gotham for over 3 months or so, but now I dived into my tv show backlog and I'm actually kind of coming around. It's not terribly exciting, but hey, it's DC and if buying these means that we can get more DC mates down the line I'll sacrifice my dollars to the plastic Satan. I just hope they add some cool stuff in there, because it'd be hard justifying whole 4-packs of people in suits.

UK Collector Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Diamond Select Ghostbusters! They look amazing! Much better than the Matty stuff a couple of years back. http://thefwoosh.com/2015/02/toy-fair-15-daimond-select-ghostbusters-and-view-askew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikfenix Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 When you set your hopes as high as DCAU, we are bound to be disappointed. Love Batman, like the show, but my concern is similar to everyone else's in that I am NOT a fan of civilian minimates! However, it is exciting to be getting any DC-related minimates.. don't think any of us saw it coming. Zach, if you can answer, how does this relate with more DC minimates down the line?

Nessex Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Hasbro are announcing '2" Marvel 500 figures in blind bags' Any idea what these could be? Seems like could end up competing directly with minimates :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmeaux Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I actually kind of like the idea of Gotham minimates. DST usually does a pretty good job with live action properties so I'm fairly optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_CRIPPLER Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Still no pics or anything for the Predator minimates? I figured they would have revealed all their new products by now. What time is it in NY right now? 6:30? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What time is it in NY right now? 6:30? DST is always amongst the last to be covered. Which I find baffling, since they have far more and diverse product when compared to these smaller japanese companies they do first. Anyway, TOYNEWSI will have the DST pics up tomorrow morning (they said so on facebook). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shogi Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 5:24p, but I think DST's panel/presentation is supposed to be Monday? Maybe Sunday? but I assume they have some stuff on display, just have to wait for people to take pics and post them. I'm assuming we don't see any Predator mates. I want to say we didn't see any Aliens last year (though they were on display) But I may be remembering 2013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
