Yes, sorry

I have alot of time and effort into the files.

Oh no worries and believe me I know. I did one a while back that prints at 12" (just a blank, not as fancy as the sentinel)but I'm always curious and interested in seeing how other people tackle things like the weight as it gets larger in size. especially since you cast it in resin.  Because so far all the ones I've seen including the ones I've done end up getting Elvis hips.

.......& I wish you well with your eBay listing.

I guess that saves time asking if he'd be willing to sell the stl files, but at least the listing says there are plans for more.

but what would everyone's reaction be if they did KickStarter and offered an obscure character you really wanted and it doesn't make the goal?

wow, that's amazing. and hello and welcome.

If Series 11 is elusive, it will hopefully not be for long, as we have more. 

Nice, I'll start keeping my eyes peeled when I have to venture out. I've only found two (ock and SG) in the wild here  and I really want to grab at least two more sets as well as the others.

I'd probably buy even more SHIELD sets depending on the accessories.

 I'd buy even more SHIELD sets if they gave us a female set and came up with multiple heads to get guys like Pierce, Bridge, Quartermain, and Gabriel Jones.
 

Yeah for me his best period would have been the time spent with Sherri. I do, however, think his born again period has some of his best work. If we ignore that whole mess of his tag team match with God. The matches with Flair, Jericho, and Taker were some of his best.  

Lego has a few decent bottles that work for scenes but don't really fit in minimates hands.  and don't know if it's worth the shipping price to you but La Petite Brique does make custom Lego bricks and many are liquor bottles.

Cool, Shawn Michaels.  Which version?  Lost smile, DX, HBK, Born again, or deer hunting?

I've used Pledge Floor Care  Finish to fix joints on Marvel Legends  and to keep feet, hands and hair pieces from falling out of Minimates haven't tried to fix joints but it should work. its not glue, its like a floor wax/coating that you use to protect your floor. I used a small soft brush to apply it and do several layers letting each layer dry before applying another one until I get the tightness I desire.

oh course, right after it was the tick was holds up much better but whatever.  tick minimates wouldn't sell, would they?

I'd sell my mother for a Dinosaur Neil minimate.

Anyone: How old were you when you were introduced to X-Men: The Animated Series and what did you like most about it?

I ask because I don't recall ever being able to get through an episode. On Halloween 1992 I was 26, married for one year, just had my first kid a week earlier, and found the show monumentally disappointing in both sight and sound. The appeal was lost on me. It probably didn't help that Batman had gotten a new animated series just weeks prior. That raised the bar for me and Fox's X-Men cartoon never came close to it.

So fans, what did you love about this show? I still see folks gushing over it thanks to Disney+. How has it aged?

For me the show started my Senior yr of high school. While I wasn't a big X-fan I did read the comics and I supported it because it was a comic book property.  Plus one of my friends would tape the shows and we'd have it playing the background during the weekly D&D game.   So it's mostly nostalgia.  

As much as I wish this was going to be Sebastian Shaw(or Mastermind) dressed up like George Washington, since we only got a movie version,  I'm thinking it has to be Juggernaut.

This.

They were not made. If they were, we would have filled orders, not cancelled them all and sold them to a discount chain.

Well, I appreciated the holding out and try attitude .   Is it sad I'm more upset we aren't getting the dog than the minimates???  Hopefully it'll get used elsewhere. 

I dunno. They were placed on the list as cancelled on the Previews website so it's over.

well at least this is something to look forward to. They look great.

I'd like to think it took so long because they wanted and were really trying to get them out.  Sad whenever a toy line or wave doesn't see the light of day

Not really concerning myself with the contest as there are so many talented people taking part, but really enjoy the idea and am using it as motivation as I rarely post anywhere.

I have them preordered from Luke's and two other places. I think BBTS was the only one that didn't charge me right away. That's why a prefer to do pre-orders from Luke's or my Local Comic shop.  I hate when that phantom charge pops up and you have to try to remember what you bought.

John Wick may have finally given up its last breath, so I expect more doom and gloom, but a rainbow is on the horizon. 

Well, I guess it's better to pull the plug and have a merciful death than keep waiting for it to never happen.   Looking forward to seeing what (aside from Marvel) is next.

I think they have gotten better at it, but they have a long way to go. Especially since the 90’s X-men are some of the most in demand and very hard to get. Paying over 20 bucks for a minimate is a bit of a challenge for a new collector imho. There are others that are challenging like the FF. 

I agree the 20 dollar price point would be a bit of a turn off for new collector but I don't think I've ever paid 20 bucks for a 2 pack let alone a single minimate. I've seen some priced that high by certain people but to me that's just insane.
