I'm excited!

Not sure, but fingers crossed.

FYI, the Assorted Minimates Stands bag is back up in our new web store -- and new warehouse, as we moved these from Mississippi to California just to be able to sell them to people outside of conventions. Assorted Minimates Stands Bag of 10 - Diamond Select Toys Shipping should start at $5 for US orders.

I appreciate it, guys -- I mainly meant we might see a larger retailer order for GI Joe June, but we'll see how it goes!

Yeah, Review Spot is great. I just sent him TF 2 and 3, plus GI Joe 1 & 2 and AEW.

Anyone interested in a cool piece of original art featuring a Dark Elf? By Uriel Caton! Say you're interested and I'll choose someone at random.

I do not know if they were supplied by our sales department.

Possibly July, we'll see.

I'm not talking about Adventure Team, I am not sure when we are offering those. I mean overall orders on Series 1 and 2 increasing.

Nandoninny is the winner of the Star Trek art! DM me your address, Nando!

No Joe for SDCC, but I hold out hope that Joe orders will increase next month and Series 3 and 4 may get a green light.

Yes!

We will announce all shared-with-Diamond-Comics SDCC exclusives on June 1. Just putting that out there.

Looks like we'll be offering cartoon set 2, the Technodrome set, next month. But I'll keep everyone posted.

Who are you asking? Whether we have the Trek license or not, Trek Minimates have never done well for us that I know of. Format does not matter, it's not like Power Rangers is doing well because of the format. It's the license. We plan to continue Trek at some point, we have electronic ships to release, but we'll see if we revisit Minimates at that time.

Never apologize for stating your thoughts, sorry if my response was overkill. It is a valid concern. I wish we could put out three sets a month and sell them all.

Looking at the design sheet, no, but he will be able to carry all four turtle weapons. And I believe he will come with his journal.

I honestly don't know if the prototypes are even painted. I have not seen them as of yet. We were waiting to hear back on pricing at one point to find out who needed to be cut to reach the new, lower price point, so that may have held them up, or at least held up the solicitation. Also, we may be waiting to see if the FF and Young Avengers sets sell through a little more. Two MM sets in a month is certainly POSSIBLE, but we only offer 10-12 new items every month so as not to overwhelm retailers. If we offer more than one Minimates set, that's another product that has to wait a month to be offered. And we have multiple product categories, including busts, action figures, statues, etc., and multiple licenses, upwards of 20 at last count, jockeying for position. Some of those licenses have time factors, where we need to solicit a certain number of products within a certain window. Marvel MM are not in a particular rush. That said, I don't think one MM set a month is a bad thing, better than feast or famine. Usually we wait for the previous wave to be released before soliciting the next, but that is not a hard-and-fast rule. We didn't do it with AEW, we're not doing it with D&D or Turtles. Here's a breakdown of solicits. August 2022 -- MMPR 2 Sept. 2022 -- Young Avengers Oct. 2022 -- D&D Heroes Dec. 2022 -- AEW Young Bucks Jan. 2023 -- Turtle Blimp Feb. 2023 -- D&D VIllains May 2023 - Last Ronin June 2023 - TMNT July 2023 - Marvel (tentative) Aug. 2023 -- AEW (tentative)

Possibly July. I think we have another non-Marvel set we're offering in June, don't want to put too much out there to pre-order at once.

I don't know that Doctor Who has been considered since back when it was considered. Worth asking Chuck in Ask DST, but it doesn't seem as hot as it once was.

Welcome back!

Regular retailers.

Technically a comic set, but you can see the first pics of our Last Ronin box set at comicbook.com: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin Minimates Coming From Diamond Select Toys (Exclusive) (comicbook.com) Pre-orders open Thursday night.

I did reach out to MWC. No response, but he's busy. I'll try again.

Only two entries? Not a lot of interest in Trek, I guess... I'll give it another day or two.
