red spade

my first mates were the tru 4-pack of spidey, carnage, thing, and Dr. DOOM(who was the main reason i got the set, after i opened them up on the way home it was love at first sight

My main Minimates I would love are the Inhumans Royal Family, the Starjammers, The Heralds of Galactus, Guardians of the Galaxy(new & old),Union Jack, Spitfire, Captain Britain, and yes a Falcon definitely.

1. Red Skull

2. Sabretooth

3. Deadpool

4. Psylocke

5. Gambit

6. Rulk

7. AIM Agent

8. Skrull

9. New Cap

10. Skaar

11. Wolverine

12. Iron Man

This is my order from those i want the most to the least

i Absolutely love these waves, Give me a Inhumans Royal Family(Black Bolt, Medusa,Karnak, Gorgon, Triton, and Crystal especially done Kirby style) and i could die with my life being complete(or until i find some others i would die for like Heralds) I do have a question tho is deadpool gonna be like the pic they show or like his new costume, cause i am hoping for the pic shown don't care for the brown in his new one.

Captain Americas shield was not designed by howard stark, it is a vibranium-adamantium mix, with a titanium coating over it, his original shield was only in the 1st issue tho brought back many of times, the second was the round one with blue and white stripes you can see it with the bucky minimate in most pics, his 3rd is the most famous as it is the one he most commonly used which is 2 red rings and 1 white and a blue circle with a star in the middle

I have found that a cap invaders head works awesome for thor, and to get back on topic mine are

1. Cap wave 5

2. Nick Fury

3. Rhino

4. Silver Surfer

5. Namor Defenders

and the worst

1. Lady Deathstrike

2. Namor Invaders

3. Beast Astonishing

4. Dr. Octopus

5. Smart Hulk

Since I cannot have a Black Bolt without the rest of the Royal Family, for me it would Have to be either Red Skull or Marvel Girl (Fantastic Four's Valeria Richards Von Doom) just for the fact I know these 2 would never get made.

I am sure we will probably get a red skull minimate when the CAP movie rolls out in 2011.

i would say series 5 cap now with invaders shield straps and belt, and my custom winter soldier, these will probably stay my faves until we finally get some Inhumans mates, i need me a Black Bolt, Medussa, Gorgon, Karnak, Triton, and Crystal

i got to disagree with you rad after getting the invaders i do not like the slip over mask for cap, both versions would have been better with a series 5 cap mask

does anybody know if rhodes or stark comes with the gatlin guns on the shoulders

actually the spirit is still owned by will eisners family it was rented out by DC for the comic

i was wondering how does the blue on the wave 12 cap match up to the invaders cap cause the only thing i don't like about the invader cap is the full mask with face.

I don't know if anybody else posted this but you can preorder both SDCC exclusives at AFX bot the Invaders and the Hall of Armors, at $15.99 each it is not bad. I got mine do you have yours.

I am dying to know how did you do the red skulls head, i have been thinking about making one and this is the only part i am not sure of, by the way i am so stealing your ideas for the body but with my own twists, awesome customs all around.

i just got my e-mail stating these are coming in, i cannot wait cause i need caps belt for my wave 5 cap

WOW! I just looked at Zoot figs on Ebay out of curiousity. A loose yellow shirt currently going for $61. Buy it nows are $200+!

I enjoyed the Muppets line, but didn't get into it due to space/display constraints. Is Zoot fairly rare and unique in this price range or are there other, similarly priced Muppets floating aroung out there? (I still kick myself for not buying Super Grover at the Con when I could've...)

It is strange that Zoot really isn't any rarer than any of the other wave 3 Muppets. However, that wave was, amongst all Muppet waves, the one released with the fewest figures produced (I'm pretty sure--one of the later waves had a low production run, too, but I don't think that it was as low as wave 3). The reason for the high price on Zoot is that, for some reason, each case had, I believe, one regular Zoot and one variant with the red shirt. Thus, the variant was no rarer than the regular version, and each of those Zoots is treated by Muppet collectors as being a difficult to find, one per case figure of a wave that was just difficult to find in the first place.

Interestingly, the Scooter (who is a more important and well-known Muppet than Zoot by far) can sometimes be found on eBay dirt cheap, even though there are an equal number of wave 3 "Zoots" and Scooters around. The only difference is that there are half as many of a given Zoot figure. Lew Zealand is also cheap and easy to find, whereas, no doubt due to the character's popularity and the quality of the sculpt, the Rowlf in that wave typically sells for very high prices, even though it was just as easy to find as Scooter or Lew Zealand.

Here are some examples that I just found:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Palisades-Muppets-Scoo...1QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.com/Muppets-TUXEDO-ROWLF-T...1QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.com/ZOOT-Original-Yellow-S...1QQcmdZViewItem

http://cgi.ebay.com/Muppets-ZOOT-Red-Shirt...1QQcmdZViewItem

The Muppet collecting world is about as strange as its Minimate counterpart. . .and you all thought that 80 dollar aberration for the Iron Man variant was outrageous, but Zoot has sold for these prices consistently, at least since last summer

(note: also the exclusives such as Super Grover, Jim Henson, and the "wedding" Kermit and Piggy are typically very expensive as well, due largely to low supply)

Actually the Zoot regular figure had a shorter run of i believe a 1000 cause of something with the paint mixes, i remember Ken lily telling us about that when they were 1st being released, cause alot of people couldnt find him, i happened upon one at a sam goody in a run down mall on clearance no less cause they where closing, i remember the people looking at me like i was nuts cause i was jumping around when i seen him, ah the muppets line by palisades was way awesome i just wish they got to do sesame street and fraggle rock like planned, there invader zim line rocks also

I would like to see a PULP heroes line, with

1. the phantom

2. green hornet

3. kato

4. tarzan

5. doc savage

6. conan

7. the shadow

8. krull

9. red sonja

10. flash gordon

11. lone ranger

12. tonto

I would also like dick tracy and all his rogues

i would also die for a Rocketeer, hellboy minimates, and one of the best new comics out there ATOMIC ROBO

thanks for the tips about taking pics cause i suck at it majorly bad, i still haven't decided on who I wanted to do next but when i do I'll keep you posted.

Hey everybody this is my 1st custom hope you like, he was made with a ult. cyclops upper torso and right arm, a ult. wolverine lower body and belt, a giant sized x-men colossus left arm, with shoulder pads and right pouch from sm3 new goblin, a head from nightwing, and hal jordan hair. i hope you enjoy

here is a side shot i took the flap off the back of the shoulder pads and used a stripped twistie tie to attach the gun

my questions are...

1. while there have been a few 4 packs are there any plans for another six pack like the giant-sized x-men boxset, cause i see this as the only way of me getting the whole Inhuman royal family of Black Bolt, Medusa, Karnak, Triton, Gorgon, and Crystal ala Kirby

2. Do you ever look at the customs on these boards to see of ways in the cutting of costs in the making of newer minimates or maybe as a way to do different figures

3. with your recent aquiring of Heroes how are these going to be distributed in 2 packs or 4 or a mixture

For me I would like to see

24: 1. Firelord/Airwalker

2. Winter soldier/Red Skull

3. Gambit/Psylocke

w/a variant Bucky

25: 1. Yellowjacket/Wasp

2. Captain Marvel/Adam Warlock

3. Falcon/Black Widow

w/a variant Genis Vel

26: 1. Captain Britian/Union Jack

2. Deadpool/Jim Lee Sabertooth

3. Quasar/Nova

w/a variant 70's Cap

27: 1. Ronan the Accuser/Drax the Destroyer

2. Sunfire/Banshee

3. Moon Knight/Hellcat

w/a variant AoA Sunfire

28: 1. Speedball/Namorita

2. Annihilus/Blastaar

3. Dazzler/Longshot

w/a variant Penance

29: 1. Hercules/Ares

2. Red Shift/Terrax

3. Black Panther/Kang

30: 1.Stardust/Beta Ray Bill

2. Patriot/ Hawkeye

3. Wiccan/Hulkling

w/a variant 1st app. Patriot

Then finally I would need a Inhumans boxed set ala X-Men style of 6

1. Black Bolt

2. Medusa

3. Karnak

4. Gorgon

5. Triton

6. Crystal

with all of these I could end the marvel line somewhat content, without them i may have to go hunting wascally diamond folk....
