The legs are sculpted on the side, and the torso sits on a peg on top(the old toy would just pop into the horse with little springlike trap door on top ... Its how I always felt minimates horses, and maybe motorcycles might be done. Correct. So anyone can ride it, but they have Venger's legs. Also, their horse is totally evil.

cylonchaney Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Playmobil horses are a little big but I think they look fantastic with minimates! Maybe the minimate horse will jockey for position and end up in the winners circle. Whether it wins places or shows, I'll probably pony up the dough for it unless I can rein in my desire. For now I'm chomping at the bit to see them in person. DST better not saddle us with a poor quality product. - just for you bhm. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Medicom (kubrick Planet of the Apes) achieved a suitable compromise by designing a saddle that allowed the (kubricks') legs to fit into .....20 years ago ,simple enough? Why not follow the same path ,then any Minimate can sit on any horse Beta Ray Bill an horse God (see what I did there?) was the closest we'd previously got .

SignatureChoice Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) I'm sure I speak for many (and risk beating a dead one) when I say it's an absolute treat to watch you pair dropping the wordplay at such a gallop; a bit of a colt following for you funnymen and your horsing around no doubt but I digress. On to the mane event though, in chasing up bhm's (as ever) lovely bit of block figure history I discovered there's a (seemingly rather successful but I suppose they all say that) racehorse named Kubrick in my state (QLD) and for the first time ever I feel the pull of the punt 😛 whaddya reckon gang, yay or neigh? It behooves us to pay respect to such a momentous moment in minimate memory, and sorry to buck up such a stable thread with such an off brand aside, just thought it was funny and not trying to be the centaur of attention or anything.. obviously I'm incredibly excited for the history making first minimate horse and hope the persistent legs won't be too much of a nightMare, y'know not stirrup too much trouble more spur on conversation: the glue that binds us all together here...as Cosmonaut Kramer often said: giddy up Edited October 15, 2022 by SignatureChoice good few typos mainly tense issues, Kramer bit left intentionally obtuse and honestly I might've added a pun somebody stop me (pls no ban) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padrino Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 These are a thing of beauty! Is the Villain set available too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_CRIPPLER Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 It would have been really cool if Presto came with a regular hair piece and a hat that he can hold on to to pull things out of like in the cartoon. These still look amazing otherwise and I can't wait to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buttheadsmate Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I realise that I'm a tiny minority & I'm glad that these are gaining lots of love but I look at these 'mates & I 'see' Peter Pan 'mates which weren't my favourites .
