OK ..OK

I'll definitely let this go after I say just this.... Minimates are designed for interchangeability ,I get that I really do but which Minimate would anybody want to put 'Thing's' separate headpiece onto apart from another 'Thing' ? Who would put an actual hairpiece on to a Thing head ? It ain't 'appening Just mould a one-piece sculpted head ,paint it & be done ?

I was surprised at how much I actually liked Turtle Minimates when I saw them for the first time .They are ,IMHO , also some of the best quality Minimates ever made . I yearn for certain Minimates to be given sculpted heads when they beg for one ....notably Marvel's Thing which has become a joke ......but in this instance I would agree that they should stay the way they are.

At first glance that looks like the ingredients for a curry.

dibs.

Sadly I have to add The Beast, out of the 10 we have had none of them conjures up what I consider to be a definitive early 60's version , the FA duck-footed/ pink gloved version is just sad. Beast had massive biceps, hands & feet ...the Minimate should have the same with proper moulded parts . Mimic is desperately needed & would need those same massive biceps,hands & feet. ....& a snowman Iceman.

There are a couple of Battlefield Baseball promo kubricks that define the word "disgusting" , think 'Old Lady' bathroom scene in The Shining Which leads me to think of a grail of mine , a series of STANLEY Kubrick movie Minimates . Oh the irony!

As many of you know ,my mind works in mysterious ways . I see the word Roblox & I immediately think Bollocks which leads me to Never Mind etc.etc. / Sex Pistols which leads me to one of several Kubrick 'music band/group' licenses . I'd enjoy some music minimates but.......... .........that led me to trawling through my list of all the Medicom kubrick licenses & there is one that just shouts "Minimates". Metal Gear Solid. BTW medicom produced 2 waves of wrestlers (Muscle Men/kinnikuman) & a rather superb series of Battlefield Baseball kubricks .

You're never to late with buttheadsmate. PM me .

I sit in your boat .

I thought it had .

I don't mind being the odd-man-out but am I really the only collector here that wants a newly designed wing-attachment method?

I know of several Classic comic Avengers costumes that a new Minimate Wasp could have & yeah I'd welcome one or two of them. There's always a BUT with BHM & I'd also welcome something bttter than the simply awful torso attachment (for the wings) that nigh on all winged Minimates use. The Wasp character was always a sleek, lithe character & TBQH I don't want a version that makes her look like a flying tub of lard. I have a vested interest in wanting a modified Wasp because of my wish for a classic Adaptoid .

The 'last' person I sent stuff to is only the second person to confirm receipt PLMK via PM when you get yours. Thanks

If anybody is interested I was never a Bruce Lee fan (his movies) although I could obviously see why so many people were. However ....for those of you that haven't .....& if you have the time .......read up on some of his 'quotes' . Amazing I'm glad the HK dragon 'mate has found a happy home. When I was 'completing' years ago I struggled for a long long time finding the Kung Faux 'Break Boy' ....that bugger is amongst the real rare minimates.

By the end of today everybody who wanted these has had them sent or received them . My apologies to anybody who wanted one or two of them but I really feel that shipping ( 1 or 2 ) from the UK makes it unrealistic . I have bought further 'stock ' & I would now contemplate sending multiples to anybody that wishes to distribute in the US .

My thanks to everybody who sent me good wishes ....including Groundhog , who is obviously still suffering from IBS .

Honestly ? That's a first for you .

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in the world ..... groundhog7s ......I'd like to say I've missed you , I'd like to say it , I really would . I haven't Thanks guys.

I have an absolute beauty ......coming .

I can do Pops...point me in the right direction & I will perform.

Trying to . It's frustrating for us all that the shipping kinda blunts the fun . I am 100% sure that everybody who wants these will get them .

I can say now for absolutely certain that I am better at buying Minimates than selling them I am just about sold out BUT that's not a big issue as I will now buy some more .

.....disappointment .
