I'm not arguing grammar semantics. His name, according to his creator, is "Adolescent Groot."

Maybe he becomes "Teen Groot" in Infinity War or Vol. 3, but the individual seen in the 3rd credits scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 with Peter Jason "Star-Lord/Star-Prince/Star-Munch/Who?" Quill is "Adolescent Groot." 

"Trash Panda" & "Twig" are acceptable, because they were written by James Gunn.

James Gunn, who says "Teen Groot" is incorrect.

Well not to beat a dead horse but Gunn has stated he’s also “Tween Groot”

“Another minor misconception is that people think that's Teen Groot at the end of the movie," Gunn explained. "And I understand why. It's actually Adolescent Groot. I would call him 'Tween Groot.' Or, we call him 'Adolescent Groot.' He's not quite a teenager yet."

He must really want to differentiate tween from teenager for some reason, maybe that’ll be part of GOTG3, Groot becomes a teenager.

Groot II wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer in GOTG2.

Back to topic, the LCS boxset is probably going to be Bucky, Black Widow, Iron Man and Thanos right?

How about "Tween Groot" then?   I don't like to type "adolescent" and it doesn't roll off the tongue like teen does, but I'll go with "tween" if "teen" bothers people.

I'd argue that an adolescent can be a teen, hence the dictionary definition:

It's Def new feet beings that they are using the arm pieces as legs (also those are slightly shorter than normal legs) 

Ok now I zoomed into the image and see what you are saying, those are arms as legs but that doesn't make him shorter (Arms and Legs are same length) unless the peg is deep into the foot not like the existing Groot foot.  Zooming in also has me debating whether that is a child chest piece since the hip piece doesn't have the gap like my Groot below.

Honestly I'd be surprised if we get black panther, beings his product is still on the shelf right now. Unless he has a drastically different look in the movie. 

@TENIME_arthis face is angrier than the first release. Almost positive his hair is new (or different than the last, I thought it had more volume on the original) 

I like that rocket is fixed, I'll pick him up just to customize into a 2008 dna rocket

@ZylekI don't thing groot is reall taller, it's just bad photoshop 

Since it looks like Teen Groot will use the same feet at GOTG1 Groot, I pulled the chest expander to see about how tall Teen Groot will be compared to Hulk.  He might be a tad taller but he is at least the same height as Hulk.  I wish they would have made an effort to make him smaller since he appears to be shorter than an adult human in the movie.

Makes sense, they are going to hit the always important 100th episode before the season finishes.  I wonder if they'll kill off Coulson to wrap up that loose thread from the cinematic MCU.

Back in my day we had to wait until the following February for toys based on a flick that came out in May. And those were good times. If you were really lucky you got one of these under your Christmas tree:

 

 

Off Topic but have you watched The Star Wars episode of The Toys That Made Us on Netflix?  Very interesting as I was a little tike when those toys came out.

So I wonder if the LCS wave will be available soon as well, with all this secrecy they haven't even been able to list them for pre-sale yet.

Yeah there must be a follow up wave, We are missing the rest of the Black Order and the creatures invading Wakanda.

Don't like that "teen" Groot is taller than Hulk.

So....if these are hitting the shelves could we get at the very least the official lineup?  

Bummer but that makes sense, I guess we'll have to mod Thor ourselves.

What's up with two eyed Thor?  He has the eye patch in the trailers but the Funko Pop and now the minimate have him with both eyes again?

Also, It looks like Spidey isn't under the same constraint as he was in Civil War (Which is great)

I hope that "teen" groot uses the child chest/arms/legs so there will be a noticeable difference between the gotg1 version.

Saw BP tonight, it was great, I think they did a great job hitting the key characters with their lineup.

Hogun and Fandral. Everything else is icing.

The tragedy of twice cancelled Hogun and Fandral leaves a hole in the MCU minimate line.  They were in all 3 Thor movies and will probably never be made.  At least we have their prototype artwork to think of what could have been.

Info in March, I believe.

It's funny that official pics from all the toy lines (not just minimates) won't be out until March, it'll be less than 2 months before it premieres when they finally come out.

Spoiler

Movie ends with Cap dying, but as everyone's mourning him, his corpse turns into a Skrull. Mid-credits scene teases Captain Marvel. Her movie is set in the 90's, versus the Skrulls, so it sets up Secret Invasion, which will be Avengers 4.

 

I could totally see something like that, it also explains why they won't release the name of the 4th Avengers film.

My top wants so far are:

Thanos

Black Order

Spidey 2.0

Bearded Cap

Teen Groot

Eye Patch Thor

Whatever those 4 armed aliens are

I was pleasantly surprised by the first couple of episodes, it has me hooked.  The first episode was already better than the whole Inhumans series in my opinion.

I'm not a fan of the eyeball look, so personally I'm happy to have mates with the lenses.  It also makes me happy to have the Civil War HT Black Panther since the 2018 movie version will likely have the exposed eyes.

Wow, they look very sharp!!  Love them

Well with Disney in talks to buy Fox entertainment, all bets are off as to where things will in the future!

I'm hoping that the Purple Suit BP and Killmonger don't have open holes in their masks, I personally don't like that look in the trailer.

I still want the remaining Warriors Two.  

If they made Hogun and Fandral, I think they'd have to revisit Volstagg.  His mate is a little dated, that beard looks more like Santa than Volstagg.

I'm so glad we got a Grandmaster mate, he was pure Goldblum in the film!

I really enjoyed the movie but have to say that those events really put a damper on my overall enjoyment of the film.
