  1. If what I'm picturing in my head as far as package design is concerned is the direction I think DST is taking, I'm sure fans will be pretty satisfied.
  2. I know next to nothing about GI Joe so I'm only guessing that, even in the Joe-verse, troops outnumber officers. Since the 2-pack seems to be a thing of the past, might a 4- or 6-pack with one or two officers respectively do the trick? (And a big "Yo Joe!" to oodles of weapons and accessories!)
  3. I was never into block figures until Minimates came along. After my mother bought a complete set of 3" Star Trek 'mates as a gag gift for my 36th birthday, I was hooked on the plastic crack. Welcome aboard!
  4. Luke, I know I'm not alone when I say your candor is appreciated. Thank you. ?? (And this is why I've been advocating the addition of army-builders in the 4-packs.)
  5. I don't understand why the retailer is such a mystery. Seems like they'd appreciate the traffic in advance of their own announcement, assuming they make it a big deal. Entertainment Earth gets my guess.
  6. Im wondering what the new 6-pack packaging will look like with these seven characters in it.
  7. Very cool but it looks like quite a bit of air was shipped. That's not pallet-friendly packaging. If only it had come packaged with a motorcycle.
  8. Because I'm so desperate for DST to offer DC Minimates again, I'm tempted to suggest The Uncanny X-Men and The New Teen Titans but we already have most of them.
  9. As a completist, I don't have a problem with six-packs. That said, it'll suck for army-building characters who only show up once per assortment. I'm currently putting together a team of Black Widows (thanks to Walgreens' clearance) and it's bad enough having spare Taskmasters laying around. I wouldn't need extra Red Guardians and Yelenas.
  10. Looks good! Now do this for WandaVision, Loki, Shang-Chi, Eternals, Hawkeye…
  11. Seems like final packaging shots would be available.
  12. I'd like to see a flat (eg. Best of/Greatest Hits) Silver Surfer that's just white with Kirby-tastic black & cyan accents. But I'd also like to see a chrome (vac-metallized) version.
  13. I can't fathom why a self-professed Spider-Man fan like Chuck would pass on Spider-Man: Far From Home, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Very disappointing. He needs to turn in his Spider-Nerd card.
  14. Nothing to be ashamed of! Yours looks great! And yes, the Madripoor Wolverine I was thinking of is this dude. He'd be a pretty simple custom, I suppose. Just add eyeshadow.
  15. That's been on my custom list for a while. Just not sure what look I'm going for.
  16. Looks like I need to update my original list from 2017. Hellcat Shang-Chi Typhoid Mary The Owl Leap-Frog Medusa Purple Man Lady Bullseye Uncle Ben (Opaque alive and translucent, ghostly dead) Madripoor Wolverine Yellow Daredevil with backpack Kate Bishop Hawkeye All New X-23 (let's finish that team!)
  17. I have to wait another 15 years for them to come back to Star Trek?! ?
  18. I wonder if DST might be interested in offering Minimates based on the upcoming Prey.
  19. I have no love for the X-Men animated series but for those who do, I'm hoping you already read about this. I'm guessing the Minimates (and hopefully future assortments) will be more successful thanks to this news.
  20. My favorite thing about Minimates is all the different licensed properties. I'd want to take this as an opportunity to select eight characters from their respective universes and gather them on the island. Alien - Isolation Xenomorph Battlestar Galactica - Lt. Boomer Buck Rogers - Wilma Deering DC - Green Arrow Lost in Space - Robot B-9 Marvel - Daredevil Star Trek - Captain Sisko Tomb Raider - Battle-damaged Lara Croft I think that would be a fun story. (If DST ever offers classic Planet of the Apes Minimates, someone's getting bumped for Zira!)
  21. I'm having a tough time getting into Prodigy but it's pretty much always been like that for me with every Trek show. But I'm kinda with Mr. Chaney; any NEW Trek Minimates are welcome in my collection.
  22. Some people have Elf on a Shelf. Someone else has Mechanized Organisms Designed Only for Killing around the dwelling. ??
  23. With 80 different (or mostly different) Iron Man Minimates from which to choose, this is a tough one. For comics, I have to go with Classic Iron Man from Series 25. I like the old-school lines, the metallic paint, and unlike the Heroic Age version you can see Tony's eyes. From the MCU, I may have to go with the Mark III Iron Man from Series 21. With the sculpted legs, the alternate look, and that tiny removable faceplate, it's just a fun toy. Honorable mention goes to Walgreens Iron Man from Wave 2.5 for fitting in so well with the Best of/Greatest Hits assortments and including an alternate noggin with a HUD!
