Trekker 42

I’ll throw in some TOS: Apollo, Edith Keeler, Trelane, the Balance of Terror Romulan.

I never noticed before this that the poster has Spider-Man twice. Was this in reference to the fact that you guys were gonna make a fucktillion of him?

My God... *The* Poster. It's beautiful.

They’re kinda cute. Wonder how they’d look not depicting real people.

I finally got my hands on a Savage Hulk a couple days ago and I gotta amend my statement. He is the best Hulk, He really is.

Yeah you know what, I wanna bring this back. It's a new year, it's a new age of Minimates with the collab between Luke and Barry, and it's a new stream of Best Minimates. We've done the Hulk, so why not do the other pillar of wave one? Who was the best Daredevil minimate? I'll go ahead and do my three categories since it does apply enough here. Best Classic Red: Wave 43. I mean, I like the Best Of's arms with the clearly visible red gloves, but I like Wave 43's chest detailing even more. Shout out to Wave 1 though for making a figure so damn good that there really wasn't anything to improve for like... 9 years. https://minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=1374&n=Daredevil Best MCU: It's the SDCC one. But I do really like the Murdock under the Man in Black Daredevil. Stairwell Daredevil's accessories are also pretty badass. Weird that the two main characters of DDS2 in their main looks were only included in an SDCC pack though. https://minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=2622&n=Daredevil Best Alternate: Oh boy this is the tough one. I love the Marvel Now costume a whole lot (wish mine didn't break because he's weirdly hard to find now). I also love Zombie DD's big fucking chest hole. I think that's one of the coolest Marvel Zombies they've ever done. (potential future Best ______ topic: Best Marvel Zombie?) But I gotta go with Yellow Daredevil from Wave 84. It has the best Murdock face, the radar sense circles, that badass billy club accessory, and you can make him into D-Man because they threw in a Wolverine mask? What a wonderful little figure. I'm glad he made it in at the end of Minimates. https://minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=3445&n=Daredevil+Yellow Hail Ivan.

Seconded. I’d also like access to the Mate of the Union address.

I’m interested to see what appears. I’m sorry you feel you have to let these go.

That’d be an instant preorder for me.

Honestly, I think I prefer this. I am not one who wants every obscure marvel character. I never ordered the crates because I felt like there was a chance the custom would be someone I didn’t care even remotely about. I like knowing what I’m going to order. I would enjoy more of those small backdrops though.

Bro, Where's My Beer?

1. Don’t say sticky mates 3. The red visor was pink from the moment I got that thing. Cursed from the beginning.

Wait. Wait hold up… [checks MMDB] I don’t forgive that! Justice for tongue Venom!

It's Black Friday so why not pick the best minimate from our favorite black clad antihero... Wait I already did Punisher? SECOND favorite black clad antihero, Venom! I'm a huge proponent of Venom Unleashed. I love how imposing he is and how beautiful that minimate is, I love his transformation face. It's such a badass minimate. He's so good he got a direct remake for the Ultimate Universe in dark purple! Honorable Mention to the alt form of Venom Best Of. That first appearance look is so neat.

I remember them being announced and, more importantly, I remember them disappearing instantly. It was a set that I think just vanished as quickly as it came. Elf is a very popular movie with like… no collectables I can think of. Selling a few of those could fund your Luke’s orders for a while. I never wanted a set myself, but I do like the Santa in it and would enjoy putting him in my Marvel universe ‘Mates to be their resident Santa. Aside from this and Nightmare (which I maintain is a Halloween movie, damn it), Minimates were a bit bereft of good Christmas stuff. Side note, the Iron Giant two pack did something similar. Disappeared fast and has few EBay listings.
