I can give it a shot, no promise the colours will match though.
I really appreciate it. Thank you so much.

Wow, these are excellent. May use the salt vampire ones once I get the confidence to start that sort of thing.
Any future plans? I don't suppose you take requests? If I could be cheeky, I don't suppose you would be willing to do the Mirror Uhura with white skin to make a Rand? Hope you don't take offense, it's just your designs are amazing.
Take care,

Nice work, Luke! I really like the Battle Damaged Khan.
Ditto. This will help with the excess of Khans I have now with all the Kirk's I've been needing. Thanks Luke.

Any quick customs besides Wesley?
I'm going through The Next Generation on Netflix, Episode 7 Justice is hilarious. "They make love at the drop of a hat, any hat" and then Picard asks Wesley to see what the young people do for fun. Worf says some great lines also.
Data/Ferengi is high on my wishlist. Great show, great minimates!
I have a whole list of quick customs using the new sets plus a few extras:-
Mirror Archer - Archer head & Green Uniform Kirk
Picard in FC Vest - Picard head & Sisko Vest
Picard from Tapestry - Picard head & TWOK Kirk
Picard in white tux from FC - Picard head & George McFly body
Picard as Dixon Hill - Picard head & Howard Stark body
Sisko as Benny Russell - Sisko head & Howard Stark body
Sisko in black tux - Frank Whemple body
Janeway from Flashbacks - Janeway head & TWOK Kirk (slighly painted grey)
Janeway from Nemesis - Janeway head & FC Picard body
How's that for starters?

So hopefully we'll either start getting two crew members per pack in (again, hopefully) future waves. [ex: Data/Worf]
Hey all,
I think this is a great idea however I would mix the colours up a bit, i.e. Worf & Deanna, Beverly & Wesley, Riker & LaForge..... At least it would make them look more exciting.

True, true. I just was recalling in the previous Star Trek minimates that they kept things similar. Chekov and Sulu, Doctor McCoy and Nurse Chapel...
So who would Data come with? I'd love to have a Q minimate here ASAP. Otherwise, Lore maybe? Tasha Yar?
I knew there was someone I forgot. How could Data slip my mind? Anywho, I would say that Q would be the obvious choice. I would say Lore was too similar and Tasha wears yellow. Put Tasha and Pulaski together......

Anybody got pictures of this yet?
Agreed.The spine feature on the Borg Queen is one of the best unique features on a minimate in a long time!
Hey,
Some pics can be seen here:-

Oh wow, amazing shots. Really looking forward to getting these mates. Love the custom Starfleet officers as well.

Wesley Crusher QC!!!
LOL. George McFly head, hair is from beast, I think. Picard gave the rest.
I'm putting my Star Trek uniforms/bodies up for trade/sale if anyone is interested. I'm keeping the heads and some accessories; i'll post a pic of what is available in the the trade thread.
Ok, this is a great custom. Got an extra Picard on order for this. I'm trying to track down the hair, but I can't find it. Looked at both Human Beasts and neither of their hairs looks like this. Anyone any ideas?

How did I miss this idea? Thanks for that. Will have to get 2 Van Helsing in case they get round to making Data.
Take care,
Matty-lad
You're welcome! When did Data appear in a similar outfit?
And, pass on making a Liberace mate! Trelane, however, would be preferable, but requires sculpting
Data appeared in it in the episode A Fistful Of Datas:-

Oh, and an extra Kirk head is already pegged for a "Return of the Archon's" QC with a Van Helsing body

So, does anyone have any ideas for customs using the TRU Khan?
There is always the Khan in Starfleet uniform that's not been made (yet......)

Hey all,
Since we're playing the wishlist game, here's mine for series 2
ENT : T'Pol & SovalTOS : TOS Away Team Spock & Andorian / TFF Spock (technically TWOK Spock) & Sybok
TNG : TNG Riker & Judge Q / Insurrection Riker (shaved face) & Ru'Afo
DS9 : Season 4 Kira & Bareil / Starfleet Kira & Kai Winn
VOY : Chakotay & Seska
The one I have been struggling with the most is the Kira sets. I was tempted to put Odo in there with her however I think he's a big enough draw on his own. These just made more sense.

Hey all,
Well I got bored at work today and planned out my ideal line of figures following the line set by wave 1. I managed to get to wave 12 without any bother. Will see if I can post it at some point (as long as it's not too long.)

According to Zach earlier on, set 4 will be a TOS Kirk and Khan. No pictures have shown up yet, still waiting.

Hey all,
Super excited about all these announcements. Just waiting to see the Kirk & Khan for TRU.....
Anywho, I've done the Picard custom we're all talking about:-
http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.php?showtopic=9185#entry263475
I hope this series goes on and on just so we can complete the crew as best we can. I don't mind filling in some of the gaps with customs as long as I get the main cast. There are some great ideas on here with different heads etc. so we get 2 for 1 figures......
Hopefully there is a great plan in action to make this line go on for as long as possible.

Hey all,
It's been a long while since I've done any Minimates but with the announcement of the new series coming out, it's renewed my interest in them........
Anywho, here's a few more for you:-
Kirk & Ilia from The Motion Picture
McCoy & Chapel from The Motion Picture
Spock & Scotty from The Motion Picture (Spock still needs his collar sorting....)
Let me know what you think.....

We alredy have a Dress Uniform Kirk, but we could tolerate a Khan in the golden tunic that he wore in "Space Seed" when he joined Kirk and the crew for the Captain's Dinner. So if they wanted to shake things up, Lt. Givers who left Starfleet to become Khan's wife could be a welcome addition to the ST Mates Collection.
Not sure there are any other necessary variations of Kirk needed other than him in the Environmental Suit form "The Tholian Web". Then we would need McCoy, Spock and Chekov in the suit as well. (Could even have it in a transparent version to look as a ghostly figure like Uhura saw phasing in and out of our realm.
You mean a little like this:-

Do we know what the TRU Assortment will have in it? Wouldn't it be the same only with a limited package of one of the sets? If TRU is getting different characters, please tell me where I can see a list or pictures so I can set aside cash so in July I can snag them all up for my local TRU.
All four TRU packs will be different from the specialty packs. Half different characters, half the same characters in different outfits. We have not revealed the lineup yet.
And sorry to speak for people, what I actually MEANT to say was that a LOT of people don't LIKE having to TRACK DOWN the TRU exclusives, ESPECIALLY the OVERSEAS collectors. So not at all what I actually said.
But seriously, whenever I announce a TRU exclusive, somebody on Facebook gets up in arms. There are retailers who think we're trying to kill the LCS, which is pretty much the opposite of the case.
Hey all,
So looking at Zach's post, there is still another pack of Toys R Us exclusives to show. Reading between the lines (and after what we've been shown) all that's left to see would be an alternative Kirk / Khan set...... Any ideas?

Yup, and see I Sisko in his Captain's vest on the bottom too. Is that a TNG Picard and TNG Borg next to Janeway and 7?
Yeah, that's what I see. Although Picard and Borg have already been done so I'm hoping there's some change. Looks like a Cardassian with Sisko as well. Only really see 6 new figures though. Is that all Toys R Us are having?
Plus there's some good custom pieces there (Picard in Captain's vest - multiple Janeways etc.)

Wow Zach, you keep teasing us with these statements. Any time frame when you'll be able to let us know about the Toys R Us ones?
Thanks for all the info you do give us though. It's appreciated.
