fwoosheyman Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Darn it these have the design I didnt like the Muppets had w the unsculpted faces. It looks like someone took a mallet and smashed their faces flat, it just looks weird. Tails and Robotnik look excellent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Wow! I guess I am not going to be buying those Sonic Minimates after all! What the hell happened? I was scrolling through the DST pics and I didn't even realize these were the Minimates at first. This is the first time where I feel like the Minimate body just did not translate at all to a property. Yikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) Here's a better picture. I agree that sculpted noses or snouts would have looked better, especially from a profile view. Cream does need shorter legs since she's child size. But I like them overall. How are these being released? Is the assortment up top another boxset or two packs?

Smashmaster12 Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 I like 'em. I think my biggest problem is that Sonic's head specifically is obviously a Minimate cylinder that sort of has his quills tackled on. The rest of them have heads that seem to mesh the Minimate form well, especially Tails and Amy. I'm not a fan of the arms-as-legs design as a rule of thumb (But I get why they did it), so that would have to be my only real complaint. I can't wait to see where these go!

buttheadsmate Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm intrigued by the legs ......Smashmaster 'gets it' but unfortunately I don't ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCW Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Tails and Robotnik for me and... That's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm assuming there saving Knuckles and Shadow for the second series to anchor it, maybe with Rouge or something. It's cool were getting Silver the Hedgehog and Cream early which I didn't expect. I'm excited to see how future waves turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Love 'em, but where's Knuckles, and who's the sea-foam green dude with the pot leaf on his forehead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video Game lins have always been a tough sell, this was a line I was pumped for a few days ago when they announced the license. seeing the actual mates on display. Tails and robotnick are spot on, but the rest are just meh. this was a line I wuld have bought every thing for but with the sculpting completely missing the faces. this line is dead in the water for me. just to be negative, its maybe 2 waves before it joins the rest of the video game lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 So second series we’ll get Shadow, Super Shadow, Knuckles, Big the Cat, and maybe that robot bro. Wonder what accessories we’ll see. Rings and chaos Emeralds are almost certain, but how about some Chaos or little robot crabs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stack32 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 It's interesting to me that Kingdom Hearts seems to be the only license where we have fully sculpted heads on a consistent basis. It would definitely help these figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekker 42 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Remind me. Have we seen protos for the other couple Sonic characters who actually matter: Shadow and Knuckles? I like this box set but I don’t want another Godzilla on my hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
