Thanks for sharing those photos, Timbo. The DC Minimates are looking good!
After seeing the picture, i now have a case of John Stewart Minimate fever. And the only prescription is a John Stewart Minimate. Or more cowbell... -------------------- Visit Boyd's Minimate Customs - more fun than scalping Hulkbuster Iron Man Minimates.

So they can't get stuff out for X3 but they're going for Ghost Rider? Oooooookay.
Never mind - those DC Minimates will own us all anyway. See if you can find out more about that John Stewart Green Lantern Tim! And, er, get me one, obviously! -------------------- |

DC Mates: Aw *Expletive Deleted*
Booth giveaway only.... no advance warning. Short of limiting it to say Silver Spidey numbers or blind-packing a number of characters I can't think of how more annoying they could have done it... Ghost Rider Mates: THIS is the minimum requirement to convince me a line is coming out, control art or protos, not promises. Not that it's a lock after Batman Begins, but X3 was never in the running. Speed Racer: Sort of a miss-match IMO to have classic styled toys on New series cards, but that's me... -------------------- |

Am I the only one who isn't crazy about the fact that what's visible of Batman's face is painted onto his mask?
And look! 4 accessories for Green Arrow! Sweet! |

Yup they seem to have strayed into Mattel territory with the John Stewart thing.
Sod all of the loyal fans who are waiting to actually buy the things, let's just have a giveaway no-oe can get hold of. Still, the DC protos look very nice indeed. Two words. Power Girl's bust! No wait, that's 3, nevermind! -------------------- |

Sod all of the loyal fans who are waiting to actually buy the things, let's just have a giveaway no-oe can get hold of. For all we know there are 5000 of these things and they will flood ebay, much like Santa whom there is usually at least one of on ebay. -------------------- Things you should know:

Ady's probably right. Back when DC used to make their Pocket Super Heroes, they made different exclusives like Superman & Catwoman and gave them away at Toy Fair and conventions. They were easy to get, and easy to find on Ebay afterwards. I'm guessing there's probably a decent number of thes figures to give out.
And I still really want one. Any one who is able to procure me one will be my new best friend for life. -------------------- Visit Boyd's Minimate Customs - more fun than scalping Hulkbuster Iron Man Minimates.

So... can any one at SDCC confirm or deny 2-1/2" Minimates in the DC line?

Some more thoughts:
- I will believe the Ghost Rider Movie Minimates exist only when I have them in my hands. I have a feeling that these will end up like the Batman Begins and X3 Minimates, though... - And since when is Blackheart a guy with a shovel? Does the shovel shoot hellfire? - Is it wrong for me to look at the Mach 5 Racer and think about how I could make it into a Batmobile? -------------------- Visit Boyd's Minimate Customs - more fun than scalping Hulkbuster Iron Man Minimates.
