Since I only have one Iron Man Minimate at the moment (without a helmet even), does this count?

I'm about 320 right now (not including 40 or so extras). My favorites would have to be the X3 mates and the Trek bridge crew. It's sad to think I had none a few months back.

I think it's just more interesting visually to do Iron Man and most people respond well to it. I just don't think most people want different looks on the Hulk. His classis image is the most recognizable, whereas Iron Man can be painted just about any color and still be the same.

I am all into more Hulk villians though. I'd love to see a Wendigo and Zzzax done Minimate-style. I'd even love to see a Bi-Beast figure (based on the comic character, not the district manager I used to work for that would hit on me and my future-wife in the same day).

That's what I put. Here's the list I used:

r. foot

r. lower leg

r. upper leg

l. foot

l. lower leg

l. upper leg

crotch piece

torso

head

r. hand

r. lower arm

r. upper arm

l. hand

l. lower arm

l. upper arm

cape

knife holster

gun holster

belt

shield

sword

sheath

knife

gun

bow

arrow

extra hand

And can I say I think I'm more interested in seeing what the answers were than in seeing who won. Maybe.

Can you winners by chance share your lists? I'm dying to know the line ups for these two new waves. Thanks!

I don't know if that helps you any.

I just got a notification that I wasa winner (woo hoo!) and Matt said that they'll reveal the line-up soon.

I had some character hit me while I was showering last night, but I can't remember who it was.

Was it Hydroman?

One of the best contests ever! Everybody was equally clueless so we all had the same chances to look like fools. You can't get more fair than that!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skaar

Maybe the link will help you. I tend to think you can't classify Skaar as a hero or villian yet. I tend to think that the Red Hulk is definitely more villiany than heroish.

I never guessed Squirel Girl but really wanted to. I guess I'm still holding out for a Great Lakes Avengers boxset.

If only Black Panther was a mutant my list would be easier (packed with Storm). Maybe Marvel can retcon him to be a mutated Panther or something.

Anyone else think the MM set of clues are much harder then the Fwoosh clues?

Yes. My guesses stayed the same as yesterday for wave 25 (so they're probably still wrong), but the wave 26 is a total toss-up for four of the characters.

And has anybody thrown out Forge as a minority mutant? He would also work with Storm.

Well since you're watching this thread Matt, can you tell me if we need to clarify which version of a character we think it is? Like, can I just say 'Daredevil', or would I have to say 'Battle Damaged Daredevil'?

I actually LIKE the disjointed waves...more variety... now to wait until tomorrow for the big reveal.

So I guess no Pictures, just line up?

We aren't ready to release final pictures just yet, but I did find comic images with all the right costumes for each one. So you'll at least know which outfits, etc they'll be in.

A definition of "minority" is "A group having a distinctive presence within a society." I think that being "from the future" could count as a minority group.

Once you see who the "minorities" are this will make sense.

I have to ask you Matt, are you guys loving this contest (ie, laughing at us all?)

I think the minority clue is the hardest one. What do you consider a minority? Is Wolverine a minority because he's Canadian (or because he's pretty hairy)? I'm just hoping that when we see what characters are released we'll all give a collective, 'Oooooooooooooohhhhh, I get it." I'm sure we will.

I'd be interested in taking your stuff.

An one notice that we have no X-Men?

Wolverine?

I think the Wolverine Mugg is the Avengers version of Wolverine.

But I, too, have wondered why there aren't anymore X-Men out or even in upcoming waves. I'd even settle for an exclusive (Phoenix/Cyclops comes to mind). I'm just a little confused why they aren't out there yet.

So, where did you find him?

I find it very weird how many times SFII mates come up in various Q&As. I have to wonder if there's a lot of fan support, but no retailer support because everyone must have way over-ordered these (at least from what it seems on eBay and the retailers who still have stock).

Those are okay, but I want a MM Grail Knight from Last Crusade. I'd buy that.

Just wondering how easy it is to customize these, especially when it comes to cutting them. Has anyone done this yet?

I know in the grand scheme of life (and this board) this question is really pointless, but why is it that some of the games in the arcade don't track your best score? Frogger, for example, always shows my high score as the same score, even if I score more. I've noticed this on some other games-is there any reason?

I personally don't want to see LOTR Mighty Muggs. Because I would want to buy them and Muggs are breaking me enough as it is. They can add a bunch of lines I don't like and that would be just fine.

So, when's the deadline for posting your buddy pic?

Ditto on Abomination. And we need more X-Men. All we have is Wolvie (the worst translated Muggs so far IMO). We need Cyclops, Angel (with cool wing attachment), and Colossus. And not that she's my favorite Avenger, but I think Scarlett Witch could look cool. That's my 5 for Marvel.

And since I'm done collecting Star Wars Muggs, the only one I'd like to see would be a Slave Leia (because it would just be so wrong).
