I am appalled. 😅

If you hit a brick wall, I know some guys here that can likely pull it off. Maybe even in a "block figure" way. EDIT: nice work Cylon!

I am glad I held on to the Kubrick Statue of Liberty ruins from their POTA run. I knew it would look cool with POTA Minimates.

I really like the story. Its not unique, but has great visuals and good writing. I still hold out hope that the story may get revisited.

Happy birthday Rob!

Super Adaptoid was always an interesting character. He was a regular pain in Captain America's butt.

Optimistic news. I hope NYTF is good to the company.

I am old enough to know that jumping to conclusions and creating solutions to problems that do not quite exist, is not usually fruitful. Also, anyone using a political slant to even begin to show causation to an issue like this is kidding themselves. This seems to be a Diamond Comics Distributor problem and not necessarily a Diamond Select Toys problem, but who really knows? Sometimes, sections of a business thrive while others wither and die. Speculation is just that, speculation. Talking about it certainly brings fans together and I feel we are lucky to have someone like Zach to maybe give insight when he can. I am looking forward to all the Minimates we can get. Love live Minimates!

I never thought of the Balrog or Oliphaunt. I'd be all in but I would probably be all in on any LOTR that got made.

Yep, we needed Minimate Cave Trolls.

Dang

I was very excited for LOTR Minimates. To this day, I really enjoy the use of scale in the figure heights. It could have been a huge line, but barely got going. I have a few unreleased figures from this line and they are great.

Very cool!

Just a few days ago, a (much younger than me) co-worker asked for my Instagram info. I gave it to her (user name is MinimateMultiverse) and she was very curious about the name. I explained what the Multiverse is all about and how I was involved. I have several Minimates on my desk so I showed her a Hulk, one of the bulky ones. She had never seen them or heard of them. I tell this brief story because its how it almost always goes when I explain this fandom to adults. I hide nothing about my love for Minimates, but it rarely comes up in all the things that I do socially. Most of my friends and family are very aware of my love for comics and pop culture, most even know I am a Stormtrooper in the 501st Legion, but it just doesn't come up unless the other person is already a Minimate fan. I have certainly created a few collectors over the years, and everyone who comes into my home office is quite intrigued my the legions of Minimates and other items I own. I guess the most common reaction to Minimates I experience is, "those are cool, what are they?" inquisition. I am all too happy to explain.

It was you... I wanted that Hulkbuster but couldn't pull the trigger. I am glad one of us got them.
