  1. Sorry for putting the cat amongst the pigeons with the piccy.

    I would encourage anyone who wants to know as little as possible to avoid looking at the Lego Infinity War boxes too. 

    Hehe the thought of ppl walking around toy stores with their eyes closed or not going down certain aisles cause of possible spoilers does make me smile

     

  2. As for toy images looks like the first stuff is starting to leak. It would seem theyare going for a ultimate Thor style replacement for the Hammer.

    As we know, Thor is going to have a new weapon in Avengers: Infinity War – and we've finally got a look at it...

    Yep, it's Groot!

    Nah, we're joking. Thor isn't using Groot as his latest weapon, though Groot does have a role to play in it all. (More on that later.)

    In a new photo posted on Reddit by BruceBannerfanboy, the toy version of Thor reveals the God of Thunder holding his new weapon thanks to the image on the front of the packaging.

    And by the looks of it, it's actually a sort of half-hammer, half-axe (aka Ultimate Mjolnir), since Thor is in need of a new weapon after the loss of his beloved Mjolnir in Thor: Ragnarok.

    As we mentioned above, Groot is likely involved in Thor's new weapon – in one way or another.

    In the first trailer for Infinity War, Thor was shown waking up on the Guardians of the Galaxy's ship, so it's likely they help him in his search for a weapon.

    It's also possible that Groot gives Thor a piece of his body. If he does, Groot's superhuman durability and plasticity will surely make Ultimate Mjolnir pretty robust.

    Meanwhile, Chris Hemsworth's Marvel contract is sadly finished after Avengers 4 and it looks like the star could really be putting the hammer down as Thor.

  3. I still need a spider gwen so will try an pick this up. Spidey is ok but just bland. Screwball could pass for comic style from what I remember but  the mouth on that figure just completely ruins it for me.

    When I first saw Jackel I didn't realize who it was but the ears an mohawk scream Stripe from gremlins .

    I don't know much about modern wasp so not much to say except I can see a female beetle custom in there if someone gets inspired. Modok and Masque are both butt fuggin ugly and I wish I could remove the images from my memory if that Modok was in the running for this years worst minimate award it would get my vote.

    Panther is a nice figure and could go into a modern 616 display.

    All in all one figure I would like, one figure I wouldn't mind and the rest either burn or just not bothered by

    What's not to love?

    how about generic civilian looking characters.

    I have never read the comics (I have heard they are very good.) The closest thing to it I have read is a few issues of Avengers arena that had the gothy witch one in it, Nico.

    For me, the Minimates would need to have a hook of some sort and these look pedestrian.

  5. Ok this may sound like a strange one. A person I know just in passing has found out she has to have chemotherapy and it may result in her losing her hair.

    Now she as asked me if there is anywhere she can get bandanna's/ headwraps but here's the catch the more offensive the better as in her own words she's not one for pink and flowery
    Now my first go to would prob be biker sites as the Harley crowd would have stuff like that but maybe there is actually somewhere that does cancer-related ones.
    So just putting it out there if anyone has any idea etc I'll gladly pass em on.

  6. Ahh marvel Pocket Books and the sideways format of Marvel Titans. I remember them with fondness.

    Anyway Back to the Minimates. I actually know nothing of these looks for any of the characters only I'm guessing that they are the current outfits. Not that I won't buy them just that I don't think I will making display space for them.
