  1. ....is printed on the reverse of the packaging of the latest 'Daredevil Woman Without Fear ' pack .
  2. Inspiring stuff ,really beautiful . It's ironic that in the current thread, 'DC Minimates', it is being explained, to those (like me) that hadn't realised , that Marvel Minimates are no longer marketed as having interchangeable parts & accessories . Stunning stuff .
  3. " fully interchangeable parts & accessories" is what they 'all' say.
  4. Previews , BBTS, Luke amongst others, all still seem to think that it is OK to advertise Marvel Minimates as 'interchangeable' ..........maybe, like me, they didn't realise? This is quite bizarre.
  5. Zach , I'd convinced myself that I was losing my mind but I've steadied myself & checked the DST website for Minimates. The latest pre-order for Marvel Spider-Verse Minimates clearly states that they have interchangeable parts. In your post you say that you don't market them (Minimates) as having interchangeable parts ? I am perhaps realising however that (for a considerable time) DST hasn't actively marketed Marvel Minimates as having interchangeable parts ? Who knew ?
  6. RIP . Whilst he was justifiably famous for Dragonball , I particularly love his Doctor Slump characters , I have all the Kubrick Dr.Slump characters that were released & they are completely off the wall . I mention this purely because even someone as humble as me has been influenced by Toriyamas work . BTW It's kind of odd that Medicom never actually made Dragonball kubricks , you'll often see Dragonball kubricks up for sale on eBay etc. but although they share a Kubrick-likeness they are not kubricks & it shows.
  7. I hope it's 'The Red Herring' , I love her , she's smokin' .
  8. That threw me initially , I knew there was a BB 'mate shark yet I couldn't find it in the MMDB lists . Of course it is listed in the 'Comic book Heroes' section . Hail Ivan . There was also that stunning Ghost Shark TRU POTC release.
  9. Amazing stuff, brilliant . BTW who is the donor for Sea-King's head?
  10. The international marketing of MInimates (specifically) outside of North America would be ,for clarity, non-existent . If we're talking 'Marvel generally ' then I have little idea . Regards Saudi Arabia , interesting to know that comic books are gaining popularity when you consider that is illegal to hand out bibles ! When I was a teenager I regularly read contemporary imported US Marvel comics , exactly the same as what was published in the US except that the price on the cover was printed in English (pence) rather than US (cents) . No other difference. In the late 60's /early 70's when Marvel UK started promoting their characters in the UK we got a series of UK Marvel comics which were reprinted in black & white. Despite having read many of these comics before, I bought them . I still have them . Here's the thing , Marvel censored them . If you had the US versions (which I often did) & compared them to the UK versions you became aware of some seriously odd & sometimes seriously worrying censorship of the text and the artwork. Red Sonja comes immediately to mind ....... the artwork changes were amateurish & laughable , more chainmail around her loins* must have been awfully uncomfortable ! Regards toys , nudity & kids , does anybody here believe that any kid that has a Barbie , Ken or Joe etc. hasn't seen their toy in the nude ? * I tried several words but chose 'loins' .....still not happy huh?
  11. Spooky ....I was typing my post when yours arrived.
