DSTZach Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Just leaving this here... Not sure what will be in the display case yet (opening those MM carrying cases today), but I plan to announce a few things at the panel -- I can't share that here for a while, but NYCC is taping it, so they should be airing it at some point. I'll keep everyone posted. Anyone actually attending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Afraid not. I haven't gone to NYCC in several years, but one thing I do miss is getting to meet and hang out with all you cool DST folks. I suppose I can tell this now, but I remember talking with you all about Transformers Minimates a decade ago, and knowing what a dream it was for some of you on Team Minimate made me so happy when you finally got to actually do it. Maybe one of these years I'll make it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padrino Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I usually go every other year or so. COVID stopped all that. Even vaccinated, I avoid mass gatherings. Just not worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This actually makes me want every Transformers minimate 10x more than I already do. Thanks for sharing, Pop! It's a very nice thought to have.

DSTZach Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) TF Series 2 is on display in the case, as is G.I. Joe Series 1 (not the FCBD box set). The panel will give some details about Joe Series 1 and 2. The Sunday morning panel will reveal a new Minimates line that's NOT in the case, not sure when the taped panel will go up on NYCC's socials.

Smashmaster12 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Preternia from Twitter was at the booth this morning, I asked him to take a few pics and he obliged. Series 81 was there too, and they had the boxes for the current Transformers and GI Joe stuff. Still "Coming soon" though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I'm SO excited to see Blaster! When I was a kid he was my 2nd favorite Autobot after Optimus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thereasonsy Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Apparently we are getting Power Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_CRIPPLER Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Power Rangers will be cool for those that have been wanting them now for a while. Not my thing though. I think I was in my late teens when they were popular so I never really watched much of the show. No nostalgia to pull me in to get me to buy these. Was anything new shown from the Marvel line?

Joe boxset is NOT series 1? Your comment makes it sound like the boxset that is a separate release from "Series 1". Can you please elaborate?

Kotter Comics Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Any talk about the Walgreens situation or a new potential retailer, or just product announcements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Power Rangers, huh? Yeah, not something I am into, but definitely a property with a wide fan base. The fact that we are getting Minimates for three big popular properties this year is a great sign for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comment makes it sound like the boxset that is a separate release from "Series 1". Can you please elaborate? FCBD box set is FCBD box set. Series 1 will be a box of individually carded figures, four Joes, including recolored Snake Eyes and Scarlett, Roadblock and Duke. Series 2 will be four Cobras -- costume variations on Cobra Commander and Storm Shadow, Destro and Baroness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostisfire Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I can see myself buying the Cobras. Power Rangers is good news, I’m sure they’ll do well. Anything on Wave 82/Marvel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
