Just got some of the new mates in the mail and since the Logan came with a spare chest piece, it dawned on me it could work well enough for a non-X-uniformed version of the first kitbash I ever made... I'm in no hurry to make a better version, a passable one is fine - as i think it's looking more and more likely we might end up with an official Legion. This was a one I worked on for ages, avoiding the obvious solution of just printing a chest, and am giving up on (part of the problem was matching skin tones - there's several chest pieces with chest symbols, some that are passable enough as a pentagram, I got intending to use and then finding the skin tone did not match the head (and i needed a head with red eyes) Two minor kitbashes, has anyone found a decent skirt piece that works for Radioactive Man? I was so hoping Titanium Man's skirt would work but it's very much the wrong colour (and too big)

As long as we're doing vehicles we'll never get, I want Hawkeye's skycycle.

No, just the one character was to indulge his writer.

Ooooh, that's a very good one... I'm guessing the only way we could get that done is as a head / hair piece. Considering how many Psylocke's we've had (5 I think?), I'm really surprised we haven't gotten it. Marvel Legends are getting a pretty cool looking one for their upcoming Psylocke and that's only like their second or third Psylocke!

Ahhh, there would be my answer. Guess I gotta buy a Puppet Master of him now.

Are you blue-purple colorblind?

Why didn't my Mr. Fantastic have one?? :'(

Man-Killer.

What it says on the tin. What iconic objects are we long overdue that aren't tigers or a bike for Ghost Rider? Ultimate Nullifier! Serpent Crown! The Darkhold!

when has purple ever once been done... We've got plenty of black suit Spider minimates. why would you waste time giving us one that is entirely specific to your own idea.

You can always sneak Generation X characters into a Phalanx Covenant or Operation Zero Tolerance themed wave (both of which have plenty of potential for the other characters featured to be major)

Got mine coming to me in the mail. Loose Beetle, Jack o Lantern and 2 Chameleons. I'm just bragging now.

Or

Oh and Pantheon Hulk - he's one I would've gotten straight away as my default Hulk but it was obviously lacking all the cool bulked up pieces. I doubt we would ever get a redo of that one very specific Hulk (especially since the Professor Hulk kinda covers that era)

Oh another one Yellowjacket!! Really don't like that Minimate... the chest piece doesn't really cover his torso or really look particularly neat and the helmet didn't really translate well - probably should've gone for a slip cover to make the antenna pop more. Also, why aren't his eyes yellow lenses? That would've been a wiser decision with the mask like that. Although, most the Hank Pym's are quite old. The old Giant Man and Goliath ones definitely feel we've got new pieces to beef him up since then but Yellowjacket is the only one I'd note as being disappointed with.

Nah, package it with this guy.

I don't think a Minimate forum is really going to be the place where the situation with Hank Pym is going to be resolved.

Oh you must be right that is the only solution. ¬_¬

I have Hercules. Have you seen the skirt piece? It's a mess.

Well, Black Knight is easily done...

Oh another one; Hercules.

Wasn't Firestar wearing her black jacket costume in Maximum Carnage rather than her classic yellow and orange one? But I'd be all over that jacket one as a Minimate!

I'll probably end up getting the whole wave even though I don't really need another Venom or a very similar Carnage to the one I have and I just bought the Torment Spider-Man but I feel I'll want this one for the thwipping hands and so it can look right next to Doppelganger (plus he comes with Black Cat who is a must-buy! Was so disappointed when her re-do was her modern costume and now they've spoilt us for Felicia with her 90s costume). Maybe we'll get a complimentary TRU exclusive two-pack down-the-line with Firestar and Classic Iron Fist or Deathlok ... like when they did that with the Iron Man / Ronan two-pack for Infinity. 90s Morbius would be cool but I'm still aspiring to one day finding the awesome Marvel Zombies one loose... I wonder if Minimates menagrie will sell the build-a-figures loose and built lol...

I'm still more interested in knowing the ins-and-outs of Rogue... Will it have a painted white "belt line" underneath the skirt piece so we can just remove that piece make it look a bit more like her classic/original/Brotherhood attire? Or, it's a longshot, will it come with a cape? Was gonna post a picture of both but here's a one that actually shows both at once
