I'm very curious to see the minimatization of Tobey Maguire and Topher Grace in the Parker/Brock 2-pack. Spider-Man in every single set. Good thing I like Spidey! Hurry and release some pics DST!

I'm all for the new stuff, though I'd like to see the Spidey 3 stuff before casting final judgement.

According to the silouetted pic from DST, he's in his human form in wave 17 and in wave 18 he's sportin' a giant sand hand, sand hammer and sandpile lower torso. He'll probably have different facial expressions as well (my guess). -------------------- The Smoking Monkey 2006 - 2010 RIP

I told you guys they would make them! It just seemed more possible since they had Ghost Rider and X-Men 3 minimates why wouldn't there be Spider-Man 3 minimates? Any way like storm said "Hurry and release some pics DST!".
Can't wait to get my hands on these, ...:::Halo11701:::... -------------------- |

Normally lukewarm on Movie mates, but double-plus good on the annouced line-ups

Although I'd like to see them before I make any final opinions on wave 17 and 18, truth be told I'd rather see them release a comic based Spider-Man minimate wave which has characters and costumes we've not seen yet then two waves where they're basically re-releasing old minimates. Still, like I said, I'll wait until I see pictures before I make a final judgement as there may be a few I wish to get.

Hopefully this Mary Jane actually looks like a girl...please AA!
I actually hope that Series 19 is a second wave of Ghost Rider mates, because there is so much territory there yet to be done. Maybe Series 20 can be more X-Movie mates? Like Nightcrawler, Cyclops, Magneto, Jean Gray, Toad and Magneto? |

Hopefully AA already has these being made and they'll be released in May to coincide with the movie's release. Since they're being solicited now, I'd guess end of May/beginning of June for a release date.

AWESOME, I'm completely stoked for new Spider-Man Minis. I love Spider-Man and, for a change, most of these new figures seem worth the time and investment. Allow me to intrupt myself for a second and say we STILL don't have a Scarlet Spider.....but I digress.
I think it's awesome we are getting a new boxed set, Target exclusives, and 2 waves of Spider-Man 3. From the picture (Thanks Fujis) I am even more excited about the Movie Mates. Transformation Spider-Man looks cool. It looks like that scene in the Bell Tower from the Trailer where he is trying to get the suit off. Very cool. The New Goblin looks sweet too. They don't show any accessories (other than Sandman's hands) so I'm still hoping we get a New Goblin Glider. Peter, Eddie, Gwen, and MJ are all going to be great because I love civilian mates. Also, I hope that wave 18 Sandman will be completely sand and not come with legs. They could do it with a print like The Thing and then have his attachments, I just think that would be cool. Plus we are getting Iron Spidey and Silver Armor Spider-Man. Even without Scarlet Spider, this is a huge time for Spider-Man fans, I love it. neo --------------------  |

I just wish there were more new villains.
Instead of, y'know, just Hydro Man. I'm glad for all the rest of you. I hope one day you all can be happy for me when we get people I want.

I hope one day you all can be happy for me when we get people I want. my biggest complaint is the lack core spidey villians. After wave 3 all the rest of the waves had gone down in depth or core villians. Give me a break, Silver Sable? Spider-Carnage? where the hell is Scarlet Spider? Kraven? Hobgoblin? Vulture? Heck I'll even take a Morlin. I'm glad we finally get Avengers. Like I said before, I consider Marvel Movie Mates separate from the regular line. I throw them in with the rest of the Movie Mates. In saying that, I'm still craving more comic based minimates. Hopefullly we get some better villians after wave 18. -------------------- ==================================================================

Hopefullly we get some better villians after wave 18. Man, you're tellin' me. I'm sick of the same old stuff. I was hoping that after Series 16 was shown that they'd be moving onwards and upwards and quit phoning this stuff in, but it looks like more of the same "geared toward no diversity" stuff. There's two kinds of this "non diversity" disappointment, to me. There's the 1st kind that's general. It's the one where you say "Aw man, why can't we get some more new characters that we've never seen before?!" For me, that's more Avengers, people like Kang and Ultron and so forth. Dr. Strange and Namor don't get minimates but we get TWO Sandman's? C'mon, what the heck!? At this point I'd even take some X-Men if they were folks like Angel and Marvel Girl and other characters helpful to building teams and such. Then there's the 2nd kind which is series specific. So for example, that's when I say "Man, how come we get all these updated versions of Spider-Man and the movie characters and still nobody really and truly new?!" We've gotten a Hydro Man which DOES count as really-and-truly new. But then... Iron Spider-Man? It's new, yes, but... it's still "A" Spider-Man. Where's Vulture? Mysterio? Lizard? Electro? Hobgoblin? The Prowler? Freakin' ROCKET RACER, even! The fact that we still don't have a neat little original Sinister Six is the biggest bummer to me of all. I could swallow all these Spider-Man variations if we had some good villains. But "Spider-Man and Maybe Sometimes His Amazing Minimate Friends" doesn't do it for me at all. I'm all in for the DC series. I've pre-ordered a case of all the sets currently available which is something I've never done. I'll preorder a case of Marvel series 16 when I can at my LCS. But this other junk? Bah. Just junk that takes away from a great concept and a great line with piss poor delivery. -Matt |
