so I am owed a Banshee and Sunfire."

Oh good lord...

Seriously, up until last year I bought every Marvel Minimate made and I still don't have a complete Giant-size X-men team.
After 10 years of encouragement I have to conclude DST has serious motivation issues.

I wonder how much Toho input DST is getting on character selection. I've read about them being rather...particular with other licensees.

Oh, and Godzilla! The second box set is painted and ready to solicit. Should be a fun series.

Hey. The guy who created the GIF said it's pronounced "jif."

I heard he's one choosey mother...

Seriously. Vanilla Ice minimate or this line is all FAIL.

Cdubya, the alien skull is not a tampo, it will be a clear dome over a painted skull. Photo is a composite, since we don't have the translucent piece yet.

When you say clear, do you mean completely transparent or will it be tinted?

Should make for a really nice effect. Can't wait to see it in person.

What's with the yellow blast thingy?

So why is Michelangelo glowing? Pregnant? Ate his Purena High-Pro?
But really, is there an in story reason for him to glow? I just know the broad strokes for TMNT.

Nice set, and nice to see more on the horizon that's pre Now and MCU.

I remember way back after Star Wars figures returned in the 90s, the Q&A team would get asked about putting out an Imperial Shuttle. And they said it wasn't possible because The Tooling.
Then years later lo and behold there was an Imperial Shuttle on retail shelves. I'm not saying Chuck lied, I'm just saying tooling issues have the ability to resolve themselves when someone decides they need to.

He did pass over Psylocke who'd have the same accent....

Our first Baron Strucker had two inaccurate looks in one pack and no even batted an eye. Our umpteen millionth Wolverine however...
Character fatigue?

Could be a cumulative thing I guess. The sum of their disappointment is greater than it's parts.

To be fair, that's cropped. The original image has lots of feet.

I don't think that's Liefeld's art. If it is, the inker gave it a very "house" look.

I honestly do not know why people are underwhelmed. I hear a lot of "re-used parts," and "no new characters," but the latter was established months ago,

Perhaps they were underwhelmed months ago as well. Debuting pictures of no new characters surely wouldn't change that.

I dunno, the comedy duo of Mattalica and Elmeaux is pretty phenomenal.

Comedy duo?

Trying to tampo the inside of a hoodie just sounds like a recipe for disaster.

but $6 seems too high.

Probably because we've been paying $7.49 for two-packs at TRU.

I just reserved the URL www.minimateblindbagmultiverse.com just in case...

You will be unable to see any topics/threads until you pay for them.

How do you save Battle Beasts?

Cross em over with Deadpool.

It's a good thing everyone hates the non-sculpted heads on these and were passing on the line anyway. Otherwise we might have some kind of disaster on our hands.

Not everyone hated them.

Funny animal minimates for the win!

Panglossian posts or don't post at all Mattallica.

I'm sure we'll lose some collectors who dislike blind bags, but I think we'll pick up more blind bag fans/people who understand blind bags than we'll lose.

Come on Zach. This statement makes it sound like we who are against the blind bags are too dumb to understand it.

It does read as condescending.
