So it's november 20th already... any word?

Just got mine. It's niiiiice

I guess I'm the first to post about getting it came last night. Fun stuff! (little wing feet!)

Sorry, WHEN are these shipping exactly...?

I really wish Namor came with a trident, now I have to buy a second aquaman

Are they any different from the regular cap/iron man/hulks? If not, it's kinda pointless to go looking for them...

We should do a collage of all of us with our Silver Armor Spider-Men once we get them

I think Jessica Jones is a very likely candidate for being a Skrull, mostly because of what was said in this weeks New Avengers. Subtle, but telling... That makes me think she's a skrull.

I thought it was an interesting issue, but I was much more looking forward to seeing the repurcussions of you know who's assault on the gauntlet. That was unexpected.

THEY SHIP FROM L.A. AND I STILL HAVE TO PAY LIKE 9 BUCKS FOR SHIPPING?!?!?!?! DUDE, I WOULD JUST DRIVE THERE AND PICK IT UP!!! *huff, huff* Sorry, their shipping prices just really make me mad...

Went to the comic shop, they didn't have them yet

It does kind of annoy me that AFX doesn't make it ABSOLUTELY clear that you'll be definitely getting the Minimate. I just bought 3 of the Transformers minibusts that I believe were in the Holiday store... it would have really been nice for a confirmation telling me I'm also getting the minimate

Side rant, but it bugs me that the Advent Children outfits have become the new "iconic" versions of these characters... for me it's still the original game eversions... I like the black skirt and white top with brown boots tifa over the advent children, same thing with blue uniform Cloud as oppose to all black AC version. Bah... ok, end rant. Nice drawing

Man Thing, Man Thing, Man Thing, Man Thing, Man Thing... With Horrible's line now focusing more on more obscure characters, MT showing up in Legion of Monsters and X-Men First class, and She-Frankenstein, what are the chances of getting an official? This would be my all time favorite. I would cry tears of joy if they did a Man-Thing.

What "Age and Up" are these? I have an itching to pick up a few packs for my godson, but the little guy isn't even a year old yet. Gotta get em when they're young though...

I don't read any DC books really, so I'm totally out of the loop... is that a midget sitting inside S.T.R.I.P.E.? Caause he's not exactly to scale I'm thinking..

So the first wave of DC's WoW line came out today and they're great! Not very posable, but that's fine... I look at these as plastic statues anyway, I don't need to be able to move them around in too many positions. The only thing thath has me worried is the release date for the next wave... June 2008! That's nearly a year away! I mean, a toyline shouldn't have a year between waves, I'd think... http://dccomics.com/dcunlimited/wow/ If I have one complaint about the figures, it's that they're all too dark. One of the draws of WoW is it's slightly cartoony, and VERY vibrant colors. Everything here looks very dark and muted... would prefer something that reflects the actual look and style of the game a bit more.

I want Bug The only character Marvel still owns from the Micronauts license...

BUG!!!!!!!

Wow, you have no idea how badly I want a man-thing minimate... *cries*

When it comes to Blizzard I'm much more of a Warcraft kinda guy. What are the odds of AA doing mates for them? DC's doing the action figures... is this a possibility?

So I was thinking of embarking on some Warcraft related Minimate Customs..... MY GOD DO MY FINGERS HURT! The biggest issue of course is the scale since so many of the races are known by they're various heights. If anyone has already attempted this, PLEASE share your knowledge. If not, here's what I have so far... For Taurens and Draenei: This one is fairy simple, just use DC oversized characters like Bane, Braniac and Kilowog. Kilowog works best because he actually has a powerhouse chest. Orcs, Undead, Blood Elves and Humans: This is also relatively simple, just use the standard size minimate figures. Dwarves and Gnomes: Ok... this is where your fingers will start to bleed. You have to find a way to make the minimates SHORTER. You can't really customize the upper leg because both ends have important joints, the only thing you can do is mess with the lower leg and feet. For Dwarves, cut the lower leg in half as close to the center as possible. This is easier said than done, because for SOME reason the plastic for legs is insanely hard to cut, and even once you do you're gonna have to do a bit of sanding to get it flat. Doing this should leave enough of a hole to attach a foot to, though you may have to cut the foot peg in half so you don't have excess. For Gnomes, follow the same procedure above, but use Penguin feet, or cut the soles of standard feet down to Penguin size. These are by far the HARDEST to do. Trolls and Night Elves: These, actually, are pretty cool... you know the half of the leg you cut off for the Dwarves and Gnomes? Well, remove feet and line these "half-leg" pieces with the lower leg of a standard minimate, then use some super glue to attach. Let it dry and become connected. Once that's done, sand down the sides to make it look smooth and reattach feet. Ta-da, you have a taller minimate figure that isn't quite a tall as the Bane, Braniac and Kilowog ones. You can also use this technique for Orcs if you want to make them taller than Humans, although the playable Orcs in the game are the same height as Humans. This should help you maintain some semblance of scale... though, believe me, you will curse and suck on your fingers more than once during the process of trying to create Gnome and Dwarf feet. Now, if only we had solution for elf ears, horns, antlers, huge shoulder pads, shields, swords... uuhhh... my head is starting to hurt. Are Warcraft minimates worth it? Mmm... let's see. I think we should all try to work on these and see what we can come up with! .. .. .. *waits for ANYONE to respond to this thread...*

Phoenix is my personal favorite. Always wanted a non-dark phoenix Minimate

heh, heh... .. .. .. .. .. Loose crotches...

I think we desperately need a new Iron Man (Extremis/New Avengers armor) and a new Doc Ock (More detail, COOL tentacles this time), and probably a new Green Goblin just cause the design of the first one way back in series two is just so goofy and nonthreatening. These are rehashes I wouldn't mind seeing in the main series, they don't need to be in separate box sets.
