Child of the Atom

The anticipation for this contest is killing me!

Stan Lee!

I just got the ML Stan yesterday and was thinking about how cool it would be to have him as a Minimate.

Stand Lee/ Jack Kirby two pack, with Steve Ditko variant.

Boxart looks fantastic, I love the facial detail on Strange and the Hulk.

Awesome, he will be Con-Man, with the power of a thousand fanboys!!!

Wow, that looked really fun...damnit I wish I lived in San Diego, if only for Comicon!!

Iron Man = God

I would buy up those Minimates super fast.

Wow....wow, wow, wow...that's all I have to say...

This is what the Marvel Line needs...more new characters, less repaints, and more villains (thank the lord)

Apocalypse, Ultron, Mysterio, Abomination; all look incredible.

Finally an Archangel Minimate complete with awesome wings!

Very happy with Ms. Marvel, Hawkeye, and especially Vision.

And I want that Defenders set!

Excellent job DST. This, along with the upcoming Avengers line will finally put Marvel back on track.

I guess the winners don't want their prizes because they have not sent me addresses.

We will do more give-aways just after SDCC.

Will the contests be more like these (random number contests)?

Because I'm not experienced at all with customs...

Yes. Some contests will ask you to show your artistic side, while others will test your genre knowledge, but quite a few will be fairly random.

cool! I hope there are some drawing contests, because I'm pretty good with the ol' pencil and paper.

On top of a Howard the Duck minimate, I'd love to see a Doop minimate. He is one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe plus you can throw him in a pack with Wolverine (as they have teamed up before). Heck make all of the X-Statix and Nextwave too (who wouldn't love a Dirk Anger Minimate).

Oh my lord, the unbelievable awesomeness of Nextwave minimates...

How about Miss America, Whizzer, and The Human Torch (android)?

Also, I want the Invaders; Thin Man, Blazing Skull, Tara, and Union Jack

And I wanna see Alpha Flight and Great Lakes Avengers sets too...

We've all got our favorite obscure characters. Maybe they only showed up for a couple issues of your favorite comic book, or maybe even just a couple pages! Although our favorites may be different we all wish for one thing: that those cool, under -appreciated characters should be transformed into Minimates, so we can gaze in the 2 inch glory forever!

So post your favorite obscure character you'd love to see in Minimate form, and why you like them so much.

Wow, that new Spidey is sure looking spiffy...

Did someone say that this set is gonna be available at Target stores?

If so, I'm in luck!

Hi there! Welcome to the insane asylum . . . Wait wrong introduction. lol.

Just so you know the entrance fee is sending me 10 Minimates. :biggrin:

See you around the forum!

Haha, yea, I'll get back to you on that when I actually own a Minimate. :biggrin:

Eh, let me put it this way. They aren't making any more wave 1's, so it's not like they're getting any less rare. But If you want them go get them. If you don't then don't. But you're not going to be able to get much of a turn around on them.

I see...

I don't know, it seemed so odd that I actually found a wave 1 set still on retail shelves.

I'll probably go down to the shop and buy a set within the next week or so.

I am a proud "open 'n play" club member, but, seeing as how the general reaction is that the carded Bruce Lee's are as rare as Haley's Comet, I would suggest not opening them.

is there any way to get this set online?

Well, I'm already seeing Giantman/Daredevil Zombie preorders on some sites.

It's inevitable my friend, they'll all show up eventually on teh great internets.

Okay, so I walked into my local comic shop and I scanned the place until I found the Minimates sections. As I'm looking around, I see an Elektra/Yellow Daredevil set. I was really surprised, given the fact that these were wave 1 figures.

But then that got me thinking...how rare are the wave 1 figures?

Should I go back and buy them as soon as I can? Or is there no rush?

They should just do another Avengers line.

Wave 16 is gonna rock hard, so why not round out the team?

Yellowjacket/Wasp (This HAS to be done)

Black Panther/Vision

Hawkeye/ Ms. Marvel

Captain Britain/ Falcon

and for variant...I don't know maybe Binary for Ms. Marvel??

Wow...I think I need to start reading World War Hulk like...now..

Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Queen, KISS, Guns & Roses

They would all be awesome sets.

Who else has Hulk taken out?

The only one I knew for sure was Black Bolt...

Some minimates from Invincible would be neat.

I wish they'd do a whole Image series so I could get Madman and friends.

Yes! I want an Omni-Man minimate now.

I want Zombie Iron Man NOW.

I'd display him just as a torso.

See, this is the problem I have with the Ghost Rider and even the Spiderman 3 sets.

I really don't like that fact that they're based on movies. I like the good ol' comic ones, and I don't know, it almost seems like it's selling out to do a movie.

But maybe that's just me.
