MiniMage

The first series of Minimates features two zombies versus two plants: All-Star Zombie and Engineer Zombie facing off against Cactus and Pea Shooter. As a bonus, an extra plant, Marigold, is included as well. Each Minimate stands two-inches tall, features 14 points of articulation, and sports various interchangeable parts and accessories. The box set is suggested to retail for $19.99.

Okay.

The first assortment of action figures comes in four sets of pairs. Each pair contains a zombie and a corresponding plant to do battle with. The figures stand FIVE-INCHES TALL and features multiple points of articulation...

By action figures they mean non-Minimates right?

These're still available at comic book shops and specialty stores here. Weird seeing things this old next to the newer stuff.

Bit of a longshot here but, maybe Dragon Ball Z?

I'll go call my time-traveler friend, it's always May where he's at.

Oh hai.

Sucks to live in Asia right now.

I just started reading Avengers World #1 and yeah, there were a ton of variant covers. Animal covers, blank covers, baby covers, deadpool'd covers. It's pretty funny since I doubt this run is going to be worth any value in the future. The point is just to make increased profits like the other have already said.

Personally, I just buy the normal covers. They're cheaper and the content is the same no matter which cover you buy.

That was a red Hulk

Now I thought they were one & the same ...? Rulk & red Hulk .

Yup, Rulk is short for Red Hulk, created for those too tired to say another syllable.

Starlord is holding something. Could that be another Infinity Stone?

ED: I read in an interview that in Avengers 2, Ultron's origin is going to involve some magic. Who knows that might be the 4th Infinity Stone?

Possibly.

...yeah that picture is giving me some second thoughts...

P.S. Am I the only bothered by Red Skull's cosmic cube hands? They're painted black to go with older Red Skulls, but there are TWO. Shouldn't one of them have metallic paint to match the Red Skull that you ARE getting?

Just read Avenger's World #1. The art was nice but the story was spread too thinly. But #2 will focus on Crusher and her partners on AIM island, so that'll probably prove better in terms of story.

I've never read a current comic series, I doubt I'll be able to keep up with school and all but maybe I will.

I forsee the new Avengers recruits as Minimates. Crusher, Nightmask, etc. They were in Infinity, apparently so they're important enough to keep for at least one new title.

Well these are coming up soon.

Seriously though, dat Thor.

Dat Thor...

Hmmmm.....

1. I guess it's because I wanted to set myself apart. Not many teenagers have toy collecting as their hobby and nothing else really appealed to me. Sports, video games, etc. I didn't find myself enjoying that stuff. When I stumbled upon Minimates all those years ago (2009?), I was hooked. My collection is in no way massive. The number of Minimates I get yearly is miniscule compared to how many everyone else gets. But I'm content. I have what I want. That's fine by me.

2. Define "play."

3. I think everyone here asks themselves these questions at one point. If you take your time and look at some old threads, there are a lot of them that are dedicated to that type of "babble."

4. I think this question can be best answered by the other members of the board. GH made many friends here. I wish I could've been one of them.

BAG MAN. that is all

I agree! I want to change my sig banner

I will accept nothing less than:

Hail Squall!

Nice addition with the Santa Hat and all.

Merry Chistmas, everyone!

So, anyone buy these bad boys? Neither one of my LCBS that carry Minimates had 'em.

Smashmaster12, got a set. He's even reviewed, 'em!

They haven't showed Ultimate Spiderman here in the Philippines yet. We still have Filipino-dubbed reruns of Spectacular Spiderman though. I loved that cartoon. Sadly, Marvel wanted to do their own thing and cancel the SSM cartoon. I suppose Marvel just doesn't know how to handle him as well as Sony. At least in terms of the cartoons.

To be fair, even Marvel has gotten tired of Peter. They killed him in the Ultimates Universe and replaced him there, they "killed" him in the 616 and replaced him with Doc Ock. And while a Peter revival will be inevitable, we are currently in a time where there is nothing of the original character in the actual comics. He's dead in Marvel's main offerings.

In ASM they changed the character. It's not the Peter we saw in the Silver Age, The Modern Age, or the Raimi movies. It's still Peter they just changed him. At least Sony didn't do anything major like, killing him, then replacing him.

Just my two centavos.

Couldn't the title imply, the AGE of Apocalypse?

- I love how they changed the gold eyes, they were nice, but this suit looks better with the white ones!

- Harry Osborn is going to be New Goblin, yes? If the elderly man in the bed is Norman, wouldn't that make Harry the 1st Goblin aka The Green Goblin?

- Vulture's wings and Doc Ock's tentacles. Like others have mentioned, we have a sinister six in the works.

- Mecha Rhino? I'm ALL IN...

- I'm not sure how I feel about Harry becoming a villain. We already saw this in Spider-man 3, we may have had 6 years to forget about it, but won't this just make it boring?

- Sony has learned from it's mistakes. Hopefully this time, they'll dish out a movie with 3 villains that ISN'T the worst thing ever.

- Spirderman 3: Sinister Six movie? Or perhaps an intro to ultimate Vulture and ultimate Doc Ock?

You said this in an earlier thread Zach. This is what you were talking about yes?

I need to fix this mp3 file I have. I'm thinking of downloading Audacity this program which allow me to do what I want. However, is the program safe?

My aunt ordered the Widow/Hawkeye set from TRU.com, now to wait...

Happy Birthday, Ady!
