With the frequency that Wolverine gets made I think it would be nice if there was a yellow costume and eventually brown costume Wolvie Mate released with short legs. I wouldn't want it on every Wolverine but if they are going to keep making him (and they are) I think it would make for a nice change of pace. If torso risers are ok for characters who are notably tall, why not short legs for those that are notably short?

Agreed.

Another option would be to pack-in an extra pair of legs, like we often get the extra set of arms or hands.

will these actually hit retail or do we have to order online somewhere?

Not at retail; shop.lego.com or Lego brick-n-mortar

I think the Minimate size compatibility is equivalent to LEGO. Minimates are just a tad too big, but I only picked up the Checkpoint Alpha set so I can't speak to the other sets.

Do you have a pic of the Checkpoint motorcycle with a minimate that you can share?

Is anyone playing this yet?

Is it really "free to play"?

thx!

Happy Birthday Zach!

Thanks for being a part of this community!

Hated that guy in the Sega Genesis video game....

Found these at Bellevue, WA TRU yesterday. Look great and good fitting parts; thanks DST! ONly problem is with Air Walker's flame wings staying in place. They keep falling off. And, I was expecting from earlier pictures that it would attach via a waist piece, and was hoping therefore to us them on P5 Cyclops. Oh well...

Zach, loving all of the accessories that came with this and wave 48. A question: what determines that a wave can be made with all these accesories, but something like SF v T doesn't even come with simple stands? Thanks!

Found these @ Bellevue, WA TRU yesterday; due to the different size of the packaging from other mates, they were sitting on the floor.

Very disappointed in the quaility of my Gruntos. Every extremity piece is too loose and falls off at the slightest touch.

I wonder if Sauron is sans loin-cloth due to parts re-use? There's a bit of new sculpting across this wave (and it's TRU counterpart), so maybe they're just re-using the ASM Lizard waist piece to attach the tail?

Or maybe Marvel NOW! Sauron doesn't wear pants....?

I just noticed that the Fury Jr. Minimates comes with an alternate head so we can finally get a Commander Rogers!

And the Rogers hands include a shield peg, so hopefully a holoshield will be included as well. Hopefully.

Zach seems to have confirmed it in the Wave 51 thread:

Zach, any chance the one of the Commander Rogers parts included with Nick Fury Jr. will be his "hard-light" shield instead of the standard shield?

thanks!

I think the little Zach Wizard is magically granting your wish... or at least that's my interpretation.

I like your interpretation

Just saw this review of "Nitro Mites" at MarvelousNews: http://marvelousnews.com/index.php?catid=23&itemid=15649

Has anyone seen these? Do they work with 'mates?

Thanks!

Bam!

How could anyone not be into this line? And I'll be danged if those aren't new, short legs!

Any help for the facebook-less?

Doesn't WB own Scooby-Doo?

I'd sure go for a minimate Mystery Machine!

A scratch n sniff minimate would be a great con promo.

Unless it smells like the average 3rd day con attendee....

Krakoa the Living Island is out of limits, isn't it?

Not if he's 2 inches...

packaged pics are up on DST facebook page

is there a return address indicating who sent it?

Just having some fun with the figures before I send them off to the animator.

"animator"...???

Zach, any pics of TRU wave one yet? thanks!

They're all over the Facebook page.

Here you go!

Awesome! Thank you!

could someone explain the logic behind Disney + Lucasfilm = Star Wars Minimates?

I just don't see it happening.
