groundhog7s Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Yes, but 14 points of articulation just wouldn't be enough to handle all of that awesomeness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I've seen 'Armageddon 2 'which I thoroughly enjoyed but it really killed my interest in 'Armageddon' as I can probably guess the ending. My late father,a man of immense dry wit,refused to watch the 'Titanic' movie pontificating that he knew full-well the ending & that "even the bloody Yanks won't change that". I loved my father dearly but he was often hard work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogafire Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I just dont think GB is the way to go for minimates. I still think a Dragon Ball Z series would sell really well, espcially with the Japanese crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOW DBZ, THAT WILL NEVER SELL! ARE YOU AN IDIOT! GOSH! AAAHHH!!! STUPID! RAWR! Hey groundhog, you happy? :tongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I guess I was expecting more. I'll keep watching though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 With it being an anniversary year for Ghostbusters and the long anticipated Ghostbusters game coming out this year, I think this license has all sorts of win attached to it. With the definitely craptastic Dragon Ball live action movie coming soon and DBZ having an ever shrinking presence on TV, the iron is definitely not hot for this property. Don't get me wrong, I think the sheer number of characters and variations of characters for the property would yield itself rather well for a line-up, I just don't see the popularity being at the height it once was. The upcoming movie isn't going to do that buzz any favors either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I want a C3 fire house complete with containment unit! And may I SEE that storage facility? Why do you want to see the storage facility? That poster looks fantastic and these really can't come out soon enough. I'll echo sentiments already posted about: -lots of different kinds of ghosts wanted -using glow-in-the-dark paints -releasing Walter Peck, Janine, Louis Tully, and Dana Barrett figures -not so many variants of "the guys" This was a favorite movie of mine as a child and has always stayed with me as a real great flick to watch. In fact, I'm probably going to watch it again tonight! I hope we see some marvelous stuff with this license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winkerbean Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://i.toynewsi.com/g/index.php?mode=vie...600&start=0 Oh hell yeah they look amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Surprisingly, I'm really liking Dana and the Terror Dog. Something about about the jumpsuits doesn't look right. The color seems off, not brown enough. I always thought they were more of a khaki color. Maybe that's just because that's what all the cosplayers wear.

Mystery Man Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 HAHA, those look great! While the color is a little less brown to my tastes, overall they look fantastic! WAY TO GO and BIG THUMBS UP for whoever had the idea, designed these, and secured the rights for these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Okay. Huh. Yeah, the color kind of threw me, too. And the shirt/jacket things are a bit bulky. I'll have to warm up to them. I'm still excited, but it's kind of like when you imagine something so perfect, then see it in real life and... Huh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 (edited) Yeah, the chest pieces are a little more bulky than I would like... but I can get past 'em. I dig 'em. I showed 'em to my parents and they wanna know when they're making a Stay Puft Marshmellow Man! Edit: Haha! Dig Egon's PKE Meter on his belt!

karamazov80 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I agree about the color of the suits and the overly-bulky nature of them (I don't think a powerhouse piece is necessary), but my biggest concern is actually Egon's face. He has such a weird, exaggerated look in real life that they actually seemed to tone down for the Minimates. And his hair should be "taller." But really, these are minor quibbles. These things rock! Louis, Gozer, and Dana actually really exceeded my expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trekker 42 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Yeah they do need a little browning up. But hey, at least Louis isn't stuck as Terror Dog. Maybe we'll get our colander!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 (edited) AAAAHHHH! They're GREAT! But I wish they could make the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man the size of a Maxi-Mate. Or at least 5" tall or so. Ahh well, I know I'll buy 'em! Edited February 14, 2009 by Mystery Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I have a feeling we'll be seeing another boxset or an exclusive or two (silmer and Slimed Venkman in a 2-pack?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
