It'll be sweet to see those made in MM form with so many possibilities. I'd really like a... hrmm... Richard... hrmm... minimate with... hrmm... tons of... hrmm... guns and... a rifle.

Can't wait to see how the toy line will be like.

Finally MK will have his nemesis, Universal Monsters' Werewolf just didn't felt right.

Thanks for the previews Zach!

Dunno how I feel about Hickman leaving FF/Fantastic Four (maybe he'll continue S.H.I.E.L.D.?) but I'll buy that FF Medusa 'mate in a heartbeat and the Dr. Nemesis one.

I think its time for a Future Foundation wave. White Doom, Nathaniel Richards, and since we could use smaller mates the kids could be there too (don't forget Dragon man).

Ronan The Accuser is long overdue for a minimates as well as the rest of the Inhumans, so does most of Marvel's Cosmic heroes.

happy b-day

WHY HAVEN'T I SEEN ANY AWESOME BATTLE SCENES ALREADY?!

For science!

Just don't be afraid to give feedback.

Then here goes.

Don't be afraid to take pictures of what you're reviewing, it helps to deliver your point. Get a light box or make your own (see pic). Work on how you delivery, the paragraph looks cluttered, some pics can do the trick.

Other than that I like it, its quick and to the point.

Anyone going to TRU this week to buy these, use this coupon!

Used it to get the Doom/Wesker pack. Thanks for sharing!

I believe Bliss and Tate each come with a Gauntlet.

And the Bat is in TRU Series 1. Maybe not that exact bat, but a bat. No eyepatch that I recall.

You;ll get a better look at specialty Series 1 this Friday.

I hope those gauntlets are compatible with other 'mates. (Dread armor in the near future? )

Just finished with issue #2 and may I request a Buddhist Tiger minimate?

Been a while since I took some pics.

I went hunting in my kids' room and found these two Playmobil figures. There is a size of figure in between these two but I think that the size of the adult figure means the RV would be way too big for Minimates.

Thanks, now I know, and knowing is half the battle.

now the question is are the rest of you awesome enough to be born on Friday the 13th as myself. and thanks for the birthday wishes

Almost, born on a Thursday.

Thank you all and happy b-day to the the other three!

Does anyone has a Playmobil figure they can compare with a Minimate?

I want to get some of their sets for dioramas, dunno how in-scale they will look.

Just got my wave 2 and best series iron man pack

Loose Pics to share

quick photo edit

Man I love tha piece that came with V. Joe.

Zach, is there any possibility that piece will be featured in an upcoming set?

I'm on that same boat Shane, I got mine form Luke's too (fast shipping btw, def buying from him again) but what threw me off was, as you mention Zik's wings. They're really floppy and can't hold a pose. That and Vorin's knees weren't attached properly. As far as the design goes his armor does get in the way, the left ar is basically useless since he can't lift anything due to the cloth and the shoulder armor seems a bit obtrusive.

Other than that the sculpting is really great and the new parts are a hit. I'm gonna give it another try once they hit retail but I'm on the fence on this new line.

I somewhat agree with ImABarRoomHero, it is a slow start, the humans characters might throw it off for me. I know Transformers had them, but they were just supporting/background characters, these humans look like they'll stick around for a while.

Still I'm definitely looking forward this first arc and possibly any homage or cameos from the old Battle Beasts.

I'm really excited for the new stuff, specially the Battle Beasts. Really looking forward the new parts and sculpts, hopefully we'll see new and improved mates in the months to come.

Test shots for ogling:

Wow, just wow. I am throwing money at the screen but nothing's happening. Really like the new gun holster Glenn has, is that hat attached to the hair piece?

That's the Transformer I meant it would be a good Ecto-2 substitute if worked with right

You just solved my display problem.

Well the old vehicles ARE silly, but something animal-themed could work out, like a shark-boat, rhino-tank or scarab-hovercraft (since we already have Horus in the comics).

I wonder if they'll eventually release vehicles like the old line did. And will we ever get those playsets that were shown to have the Croc Battle Beast?

The thing with Minimates is that they're basically a collector's line, something major retailers avoid.

They should try the building blocks again with kid-friendly licenses. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is the only one that comes to mind with a collector market appeal too. That and re-design the hands to hold other brick-type weapons.
