The Scarlet Spider

eh i'd just better buy em quick lol. I didn't know it'd be such a big deal. Like I said if DST isn't gonna make them that size and someone else does more power to em it seems like the only reason they'd try to shut em down is out of spite. "Quit making product we'll never make". I doubt he'd get in too much trouble anyhow, he lives in another country.

 Gotta tell him not to "mass produce" then lol 

I mean if you're not offering an option to someone who likes your product and a person can fill that niche that people want then I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I get the intellectual property thing since it's their baby but if they're not gonna offer articulated bigger mates and someone is then I'm not gonna lose sleep over supporting someone else and hoping they can keep providing it for me. 

lol I better go ahead and buy from him then. I didn't think buying custom made toys could have the smackdown laid on em :/ I mean it's not like they're gonna make these EVER. Like it'd be kinda selfish to kill these for the fans. 

A while ago binoboi put out a notice that he was working on a way to mass produce or make production cheaper for 8" sentinels. If he succeeds I think we'll see an influx of Sentinels and maybe other large scale villains. I mean it'd probably be just as cheap to commission a 3-4" Juggernaut from him instead of paying for an old Excalibur one. The commission would probably be better too lol. I've seriously thought about saving up and having him to do huge characters for me since DST can't, I love DST but I want a bigger hulk and abomination and other characters like that in scale. 

Heck maybe he could even work out Annette proportioned Rocket.

You read my mind man.

I want to try my hand at building my own ships. Scale means a lot to me, and it'd probably be a lot more cost effective.

If I'm not mistaken, Scorpion bonded with Venom in the show. Best of both worlds?

lol I wish DST would make a Scorpion and Mac Venom but I doubt they'd do parts for both.

THE HIGHLY REQUESTED VILLAIN COULD BE SCORPION!

Iron Fist is almost a shoe in. I mean we can't NOT get Iron Fist. I really hope we get Defenders mates and Punisher series mates as well.

I don't want it to fail either. I'm apprehensive, but if this line can go the distance I'm with it 100%. I just don't want to get my hopes up or get invested and it not.

I feel the same way Jedi. I hope it incorporates the ability to go couch co-op or online co-op but isn't necessarily dependent on it.

So what do you guys think of the teaser for the new Marvel Avengers game?

Alfred with a Bat Cave Playset. That works for everyone they get to extort money from the buyers to get Alfred and the buyers get a playset!

Highly requested re-do villain, Abomination? Kraven? Shocker?

Assassins Creed is popular with the young adult to teen gamers, so that's probably why you guys feel that way about it. I mean we have Plants vs Zombies minimates, not sure Assassins Creed is more niche than that game.

I think Kostis and I fit into this category (teen-young adult) but I guess we may not be the norm.

 I'm still holding out hope that somehow, someday, a Haunted Mansion set will be made!

Eddie Murphy Hahnted Mansion? I have fond memories of eating Taco Bell and watching that movie... it's a guilty pleasure. 

Also I don't think Fast & Furious ever had to worry about "quality" being a continuous factor in their movies XD it feels like the same movie every time. Don't get me wrong when I was like 12-13 I dug them but now it's eh. Heck if there was a minimate line I'd buy the hell out of em for the cars and make the people random goons. 

As far as PotC goes I hope this goes well and gets us all the movies but idk :/ can you give us some sort of hope that it might happen if we buy a couple of these each, Zach? Lol 

i also whole-heartedly agree about OST NerdyTrev, I've seen it 2-3 times just cause I always get curious to revisit it after binging the first 3, but comparatively it just can't hang with em. Numbers be damned. Here's hoping the 5th movie destroys, though. 

Yes! Ms. Marvel!

Assassin's Creed would be kinda cool, although I have the same feeling I have about every new line - get invested and have it end up only going for a wave and be disappointed? Vs. waiting for it to start up and paying scalper prices for later figs. 

I agree that it seems like a potential flop property but if DST has continuous waves going then I'll try my best to keep up collecting em. The first 2 games were decent but then they tried to CoD it and pump them out as fast as possible with little story :/ kinda like the movie...

(I'm just not too big of a fan of Michael Fassbender, I know his Magneto was decent and he may have tried to carry the X-Men films but I can't help but feel negative about everything connected to them, Logan being an exception) 

I'm not sure how new is different than never made but I'm guessing a non-blind bag silk? Also maybe a remade bulk juggs oh sweet lord of mates make it so.

If DC Minimates ever return, i don't want a hulk-ified Doomsday or Grundy. I want the, 2.5 to stick with the same simple spirit of the original line. These characters don't need a bunch of add on biceps and thighs to be recognizable!

I second this. The bulk up pieces just ruin articulation for me.

Yeah I'm kinda on the fence about this property. For starters I barely have enough money to stay invested in marvel, so if this line is only this wave I wouldn't be too upset. At the same time I really love PotC and if they make other waves from the previous movies I'll definitely want to buy them all but I don't want to get these if that's all the mates of PotC that there's going to be. So here I am at a crossroads, should I buy these? If I don't and the line continues the scalped prices will be terrible. Oy. Part of me thinks this'll be a one off considering DST usually doesn't go back and make previews stuff. However Aliens happened so I guess anything's possible. 

The watchmen mates are cool, I don't know if I'll get any though, money being how it is and stuff. Lord help me if Star Wars is announced. I mean it IS a movie...

I had a dream that Star Wars was the new license and I both felt doomed and happy.
