Kostisfire Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Chuck always says never say never. This time he turned down the possibillity of dc mates. I've lost all hope. You're right guys,they won't come back. At least not this millennium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 New Q&A, where I totally got shot down. Actually, overall it felt pretty depressing all around. On a side note, could this thread be pinned and Q&A #11 not be any more? Just askin'. Actually, I think it is quite refreshing to know that SOME grown men don't sit around discussing Squirrel Girl. Halo on the other hand... :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I'm saddened by the DC comment .....yet almost relieved in many ways . Of course this doesn't mean the door is closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) That's why I prefer marvel. Though I wasn't here in 2006 you say that it was a pretty awfull time for the line. Yet,marvel stayed. Dc on the other hand... It seems that they do not really care about their characters. The only movies you'll find are the batman ones. And really,after northstar's gay marriage their new "iconic" gay hero proposes to his boyfriend in a train? Really? If dc was smart they would try again. When you release batman,superman,green lantern and joker in the first wave and then you release guys like ma hunkel and ambush bug before ras al ghul,scarecrow and zoom you really don't believe in the line. They should try to learn from their mistakes. Come on,mez-itz,squinkes and balls who boil in hot water and reveal the character's face are better than minimates?

TM2 Dinobot Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 V GAny chance of getting a set of the Phoenix Five from the Avengers Vs. X-Men crossover? DSTCHUCK: I suppose doing something might be possible but we have no plans to change the MM matrix so a 5 pack would not be possible. Shows how old these questions are. He should have updated his answer with "Yes! Check out our wicked new TRU poll!" Man, I would love an Evolution costume X-23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawcanada Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Actually, I think it is quite refreshing to know that SOME grown men don't sit around discussing Squirrel Girl. Nothing was said about Rocket Raccoon so fingers crossed for him I am a little dissapointed we've seen all we can for MvC3 (no Strider or Captain Commando ) as I'd have loved to see Zero as Mega Man X. But I am hopeful we'll see more Capcom in the future. I'd love to see a proper Darkstalkers wave (especially if the DS4 rumours turn out to be true).

Turtle Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Over all kind of a boring Q&A, but it was nice to hear DST is considering getting stands out there. I'd buy a few more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) You'd think that with all the asking being done about the stands that they'd realize it's really about time. You can't pack one stand in each 2-pack and think it'll satisfy the needs for most of the people that collect Minimates. Oh, and it looks like it's a good thing that I just got this in the mail this week. I've got some serious baking to do this weekend if I'm going to get a nice package of brown-nosing out in the mail.

hellpop Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Actually, I think it is quite refreshing to know that SOME grown men don't sit around discussing Squirrel Girl. Nothing was said about Rocket Raccoon so fingers crossed for him I took it exactly the same way. Chuck's silence confirms Rocket Raccoon in 2013! Mignola version the variant!

Twisted Two-Face Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Yea i'm confused on that too...MODOK has production pieces made already and the wave will be released this summer. What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediJohnson Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 one of the answers was that Marvel vs Capcom was done...it didn't specify that the next waves would come out. clarity on what "done" means would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I think he was basically saying they're not doing any more after wave 3. They're a long way past fishing for solicitations; the release date for those is on the calendar (late July), and we've seen both prototypes and test shots. It's as sure a bet as possible that wave 3 is coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeycrumb Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 DSTCHUCK: "We’ve never discussed Squirrel Girl" And yet Chuck specifically threw her name out in the 10th Anniversary AFI interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 So, reading between the lines, there was no need to discuss them making her? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Here's a thought. Maybe Chuck mentioned it in the interview because she was fresh on his mind after some cookies he got from C2E2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) What, nobody noticed this yet? http://www.artasylum...06/ask-dst-164/ I asked the question about designing 'mates for other companies, which makes me look like a prophet, I think.:biggrin: Mystery Man's not going to be happy with his answers, though.

Mystery Man Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 What, nobody noticed this yet? http://www.artasylum...06/ask-dst-164/ I asked the question about designing 'mates for other companies, which makes me look like a prophet, I think.:biggrin: Mystery Man's not going to be happy with his answers, though. And I feel bad for the guy that's probably allergic to Minimates...:sad: Yep. To be honest, I kind of expected the answer I got re: more Monsters. I appreciate them releasing non-monster characters for the movies, but that AND the wait between releases (seems to me) are contributing to the "soft" side of the sales. One or the other, might be fine. But both is tough to get anybody that's not a die-hard monster fan to come back each year. :/ Guess I'll need to figure out how to make an Invisible Man and Phantom of the Opera for myself. ... I WAS thrilled to hear that the Mummy's sarcophagus is gonna come in two parts, though! \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
