BuffaloDelorean Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Rizzo the Rat and Sam the Eagle are the only two Muppets I could name who are missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I really need a Zoot and Lips. I loved Electric Mayhem and really want to have them all on display. I have everyone else except Zoot and Lips. Sam the Eagle would be a great addition to the line and Rizzo would be nice but not a requirement on my part.

BCDX97 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Luke's Store has Series 3 in stock, if anybody still needs them. I'm glad I waited and never order from that Minimates Menagerie scalper on Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Zach, have their been any talks about Muppets Vinimates? Since you guys still have the license, Muppets might work better as sculpted vinyl statues where you don't have to adhere to certain existing Minimate tooling. One last wave of Muppets Minimates would be fun though: - Kermit (resculpted) / Sam the Eagle - Uncle Deadly / Sweetums - Rizzo (articulated) / Lew Zealand - Bobo the Bear / Clifford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Not sure if we have vinyl figures in the license, but maybe Ask DST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ufemizm Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Luke has them in stock, again! Delayed last time and regretted it, this time, I got 'em! I actually saw a live Muppets Performance at the Hollywood Bowl a few months ago, and it was really great. I was resigned to never getting these, but things change!

I was finally able to order the set so I could complete my Electric Mayhem! I had about given up finding half this wave! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnim zola Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I hadn't gotten any of wave three out of disappointment on finding a full set and finding out they were cancelled. Thanks for the heads up as my muppets are now complete! I do really wish we could get some Sesame Street mates next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different licensor but, yeah, that'd be pretty sweet. Imagine how well Oscar's garbage cans alone would sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elhonez Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Why is it so hard to find a Zoot/Lips mate or 2-pack? I just want these guys. More specifically: their instruments. Anyone know where I could find them? I've only seen a full S3 set for sale on Amazon. Nowhere else. Not eBay, not Luke's, not ToyWiz (I must be desperate), not BBTS...

youbastards Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I believe orders for Series 3 were very low, and TRU had pulled out of the line by the time these came out. I may be wrong, but I think I remember there only being standard cases of these instead of custom cases, meaning the Zoot/Lips pack was short-packed. Menagerie is the same seller at Amazon, he has the full series 3 on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Muppets-Minimates-Series-3-Complete-Set/122275112411?hash=item1c782a25db:g:CYcAAOSwnHZYV2CC:sc:USPSFirstClass!48105!US!-1:rk:12:pf:0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I read some of my posts 'afterwards' & occasionally cringe . That one was brutal . Here's what I should've said .......... Muppets minimates Series 3 had a chase pack , Newsman & Pepe , one per case . That pack is & was , IMHO, one of the most elusive retail Minimate packs on ebay ever . The wave is also one of the most elusive LCS Minimate waves ever . This has been the scenario since they were first released almost 2 years ago , they have never been prolific on ebay & it transpired that some on-line suppliers were initially caught out by its scarcity . I bought my Series 3...er.... requirements.... from 3 different suppliers which is unique because for years I generally use one , this was out of necessity . The good news is that the Zoot/Lips pack isn't quite as rare as the Pepe pack . Good luck with your hunt elhonez & I'll keep my eyes open for you.

elhonez Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Thanks BHM! There are a couple of LCS spots I have yet to check here, so I'm going to make a last-ditch effort to find the two-pack. On the off chance I do, I'll load up in case anyone else is looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 As far as I know, Pepe/Newsman was 2 per case, like Zoot/Lips. Not sure I ever had a case in hand, but that should have been the breakdown. 4x Kermit/Fozzie, 4x Floyd/Janice, 2x Pepe/Newsman and 2x Zoot/Lips We still have Muppets Series 3 cases in inventory, it looks like. https://shop.diamondselecttoys.com/muppets-minimates-series-3-two-pack-asst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Zach is absolutely right & I am wrong....it happens I have just re-read some old PMs from around that (Muppet S3) time & they confirm what Zach has said . I always buy custom cases when I can but I struggled with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I assume there are not a lot on the market, because we still have a fair amount in inventory. SO if anyone is wondering where they are... It doesn't help that TRU dropped it, leaving some shared characters in short supply and some characters completely unmade. I pushed to get them released for a while, but gave up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Can you share any of the unmade characters? Were they designed? I miss the old DST design sheets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I didn't realize the entire Electric Mayhem made it as Minimates. Damn. Need to get them now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I can share the designs, but Protos exist. I'll have to start posting design sheets again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
