Does anyone know why the links to the pages wouldn't work? "actionfigs.com" servers don't see to be working.

I would assume that Wave 12 also has the new, slight packaging designs? Either way, the Wikipedia Minimates page is getting a "Packaging History" section.

OhmgomgomgOMG! Are those NEW hair sculpts?! NEW pieces and not just repaints?! There is a God after all... albeit one prone to delays.

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone would be able to take some pictures of some Minimate packaging for me, considering the fact that some people have older packaging (of the now-defunct 3" lines, for example), of which I can not readily aquire. This would be very helpful to me, as I need some examples of pre-existing packaging for the reseacrh section of my GCSE Graphics project. Of most importance are pictures of the tube-like packaging of the older 3" lines, an example of the older Marvel Minimates packaging which incorporated the plastic window, and an exmaple of the DC C3 boxes. It would be useful if I could have pictures of the front and back of those (and a side picture of the DC C3 box), preferably on a white background, but anything would be helpful. I could also do with front and back pictures of either the Lord of the Rings or Street Fighter II/Darkstalker packaging, but don't worry too much about that if it's not possible, as I might buy the latter from Stuckakid. Thanks in advance, gerg.

Hey everyone, some of you may remember me from the old AA forums as the kid who made a Jack Skellington Minimate for an art project, in which I used Mr. Fantastic stretchy arms as legs. Some of you may remember me for having way too many ideas, and not enough time to do them. And some of you may remember me for saying I'm going to be doing packaging for Doctor Who Minimates for my GCSE Graphics project. Or not. Well, if you don't know who the heck I am and what that last paragraph was about, I'm gerg. again. I'm English and keen to make lots of custom Minimates, so the Custom forum is probably where I'll be seen most of the time. For those that do know me from the old AA forums, I'll just simply say that I've bothered to migrate. Oh, and thanks for all the help on the survey I asked Ady Carter to post. The autumn term has now started, and I think I've decided on the Minimates I'll be making. Those "character themed packs" really threw me. So this is how I see it... I'll be having one major villain/major hero per series. There will be one classic Doctor Who set (perhaps painted in monochrome, I might add) per series, and one minor villain/minor hero set, depending on whether it's a major villain or a major hero. The waves, of which Wave 1 I'll actually be making (a Dalek is in Wave 2, so I'll probably make him anyway, just to show off). Each set will have a box shaped like the TARDIS, which will open up and reveal an inside themed like a character-related episode. For example, the Doctor's set will show the interior of the TARDIS, whilst the Dalek's will be themed like the underground base. Wave 1 --------- The Doctor (David Tennant) Ursula Blake [Classic (pre-new series) character with associated character] Elton Pope (great inter-set interaction, eh?) Abzorbaloff CHASE: Victor Kennedy Wave 2 --------- Jack Harkness Random person from Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways [Classic (pre-new series) character with associated character] Dalek Soldier CHASE: Henry Van Statten Comments and help greatly appreceated, - gerg.
