Shup Dude Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) Okay, so I was looking at some of my newest Minimates, and thought they resembled some characters I've seen before in T.V. shows and whatnot. I know Red Tornado came first, and he IS after all an airbender, right? Or a mutant that controls wind? Either way, he uses wind to his will. Just like Avatar: The Last Airbender's Aang. They both have lines around their bodies, but are different colors. Aang has tan skin with light blue lines, and Red Tornado is (you guessed it) red with yellow lines on his body. Also, both have an arrow on their heads... and are bald. So, did Avatar: The Last Airbender copy this from DC's Red Tornado, or do airbenders (win controllers, whatever) always have these designs? Please respond, and maybe compare some of the DC/Marvel characters we see in comics to video game characters and/or T.V. characters we have today (besides the original... that'd be plain dumb. EX: Well, my Cyborg Superman looks just like the Superman from the shows... -.-).

I was thinking that Captain Kirk from ST Wave 4 bore an eerie resemblance to that Priceline.com guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylonchaney Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I've been meaning to do some kind of comic pic with a Twilight Zone theme ever since I bought Shazam. His head looks exactly like Rod Serling to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other other guy in the Platoon box set looks like Capt. Jack Sparrow and the black guy in the Iron Man wave looks like the guy from Hustle and Flow and that guy from the FAFDM set looks like Dirty Harry... But seriously, I think Clarice from the SOTL set is a dead ringer for Scully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpheon Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 ..."Mimimates"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) But seriously, I think Clarice from the SOTL set is a dead ringer for Scully. IIRC another thread explained that SOTL Clarice actually DID inspire the characterization of Scully for X-Files. ..."Mimimates"? Next time spell it right people!!!
