Does anyone have any decals like for a tux or wedding dress? Sand serif's skin tone doesn't match well with other mates.

Thanks! Great suggestions! I actually have that sand serif. Any others?

My fiance and I will be tying the knot in just a few weeks on August 24 and I think nothing would be cooler than bride and groom minimates that look like us on top of our cake. Now I've only collected DC and Marvel mates and I don't remember anything resembling a bride and groom. Are there any civilian characters from other lines that I can make some quick bride and groom customs with?

Exactly what I'm thinking. I feel obligated to buy a second set, knowing there's a possible variation. Or I could just display the torso...

Nothing! Although someday I'd like to go back and buy duplicates of some figures that have alternate looks.

I'm pretty excited for this set actually. That cablepool is sweet. I'm not really sold on the 5th figure idea though.

Sorry dude, missed your query. It is a Shopko Venom, but in what I assume was test packaging. It was given to me by a good mate, and friend of this forum. It's one of my favourite pieces. That is all of them. I'm surprised they all fit actually. My previous setup was just random different shelves all over my old bedroom. It's nice to have them all in one place and organized. Good idea to put all the marvel movie mates together. They don't always match up to their comic counterparts. Looks great!

Glad to see I'm not the only one who hates Squirrel Girl. I'd accept Squirrel Girl if we could get Mockingbird. Actually, as much as I despise Squirrel Girl, I do hope that they make a Minimate of her. I personally hate her, but a lot of guys here disagree, so it'd be cool for them if DST made a Squirrel Girl. I don't much care for her either. I just think she'd make a neat looking minimate.

My thoughts exactly. I'd take a battle damaged spider-man if I could get a squirrel girl.

Is that TV from an old TMNT figure? I know I've seen it before.

Thanks. I was lucky enough to get it for free from someone on craigslist.

There can be only one... ...is what my fiance said. She agreed to let me put my minimates on display in our bedroom if they could fit in one nice cabinet. The problem was finding one big enough to fit every marvel and dc mate . This one worked out just perfectly. Galactus Maximate and Heralds up top. Lord of Minimates Close up of DC mates Same shelf from below. A bit blurry Spidey shelf Cap and Thor Hulk and Iron Man More Spidey Thor Assemble! From the side

I wish I actually got the afro. My Blade got the same hairpiece as Morbius. Crud...

Sweet. Thanks for the info.

Fixed... or made it better?! Exactly.

A tiny minimate Batmobile and Thing would be the perfect accessories.

Hopefully Hugh Hefner Stan makes the cut.

He's a lot more recognizable when he's taller than two inches high. Sorry. Still pining for a big-ass Galactus bank ala the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man. Bygones. There is the Galactus Maximate. That's taller than two inches.

I admit, garbage was a poor choice of words. I know you stand by yourproduct, not because it's your job, but it's something that you clearlyenjoy doing, and that I respect. I did not mean to offend. The next time I have a complaint, I'll try to be more... um, careful. And yes, I absolutely do love my minimates. It is the only collection I've kept up with this long. I stopped buying comics,(and everything else I collected) just so I could focus on minimates. Being a completist collector I suppose I get jaded from time to time when one or two stand out that just aren't as great.

I was able to work it out with a small screwdriver without boiling or freezing it. Took few minutes, but it did work. Thanks!

Thanks, I'll try that tonight. Maybe freezing it would work better? I don't want the paint to come off the bottom half if I boil it.

Good gravy, these are groovy... I can't wait!

My mephisto's leg just broke the ball joint and now the ball is stuck inside the leg. Any ideas on how to get the ball out of the leg socket without ruining it?

Did you ever get any answers from AFX as to why your orders weren't shipping? I tried numerous times to get through to them over the phone, but to no avail. I decided to just send them an email telling them to cancel all of my orders, so they sent me conformation emails for each of my cancelled orders.
