Punishers battle van Doesn't luke make one of those throw effect things? A van would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically we can get sets like those. The bikes just need to be stands with static, non-spinning wheels so they don't qualify as "vehicles." That's how other licensees get around the category. Mezco offered Batmobiles as "accessories" with their Mez-Itz figures and the wheels were fixed in place so they didn't turn to become a functional vehicle. DST has to jump through a similar hoop with DC Vinimates by fixing the figures' heads so that Mattel doesn't get their action figure toes stepped on.

You're probably better off using a 1:18 scale Quinjet from the Hasbro line. They tend to be underscaled for 4" figures but look much better with 2" 'mates standing in front of them.

I would love for the Minimates to come with static ‘riding’ legs that can be swapped out for the lower torso or for bikes to have the legs sculpted to them. That way it could be ‘alternate motorcycle look’ included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 As long as the legs aren't sculpted into the stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Mjolnir could use some lightning effects. Considering we've gotten a lot of common hammers, the FX could be widely used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were reused with the Sentinel that came with Rachel Grey/Summers, but I don't know how often they've been used since. I loved having it as an additional display option with my Sentinel Army.

BuffaloDelorean Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 The Best Of 1 and Greatest Hits Iron Men used them too, so DST still has the tooling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I really wish they’d make a mirror image of that Iron Man repulsive hamd and release it with the upcoming hologram IM figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the old Superhero Squad line... pretty much perfect, although you do need to add in seats. SHS is an underrated line for Minimate compatible items.

MisterPL Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Indeed. The Playskool line has plenty of promise. That drill is perfect for Mole Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
