minifigvig Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 i would probably need to get a second job if star wars minimates ever happened. so many storm troopers and rebels. and of course everyone in the cantina gets a figure (special box set for the band). hammerhead will end up being even more sought after than silver age angel. i’ll tell myself that i’ll only stick to the original trilogy, but once they release darth maul i just get pulled right back in. now i’m waiting for AOTC jango and mace windu. then eventually it’s mando. would love to see it in my lifetime lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've recently gotten back into collecting Star Wars 3.75" figures (largely due to the relative rarity of Minimates). As someone who started in 1978, I've got almost all the OT figures I need and have sworn of everything else after acquiring entirely too much PT and Clone Wars figures and vehicles. There's very little Disney-era in my collection. My focus had been narrowed to TVC (no more 5POA for me, thanks) but then along came The Mandalorian. Ugh. My poor wallet. If The Book of Boba Fett and Obi-Wan are up to par... ... yeah, I'll be right there with you at my Star Wars toys job. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elhonez Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Ugh, they didn't pull through. But I will still occasionally chime in for Star Wars MiniMates. It sounds like they wait for e.g. the Disney Store to request items, rather than pitch them to Disney Store. I have no idea how this stuff works, I only know I want 'em. I would be all-in if they did something similar to GI Joe with "vintage" single cardbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegedly I am 'retired ' but even I* would go without heat & food for Star Wars minimates ..... I previously did for Star Wars kubricks . I'm not going without beer though. 7 hours ago, Navaan said: Yeah this would be killer to my shelf space... and yet... Great for heat insulation. * a non-Star Wars fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
