  1. well, this is probably the cheering up someone needed. thanks to Zach for doing this!!!
  2. i'll have to look for that one. and i actually had to give up scotch/whiskey b/c i get drunk. so i switched to beer during these times b/c i can only drink two tops which will not fuck me up. except for when i drank that 14% beer. i was not expecting it to be that strong but i was pretty buzzed after one
  3. anyone know any good liquor or beer bottles that go well for minimates? something that could look like a glass of scotch? very bored and need to find something to do w/ minimates thanks,
  4. hell, even the something like the luke's multiple man two packs i'd be happy with. let me army build!!! what's weird is there was an ad on instagram today for marvel legends hydra soldier army builders for $15. i find it funny that with minimates we often pay more (not less) for army builders. i bought about 8 of the crazy 88's pack. yep, i'm that stupid. sell me more like that. all the ones you mentioned would work for me.
  5. i had forgotten about the nick fury/punisher one!! nice reminder. these games were fun to play with a group. i got my wife to join me but as soon as it was done she was happy to get the heck outta there. i downloaded the x-men one for ps3 so i had to dig that out for the first time in years. i don't know if they ever offered any of the others. i know they offered the simpsons one and at least turtles in time, not sure about the first acrade ninja turtles game. damn it. now i want to find them.
  6. watched 4 episodes yesterday. got me so hyped up for x-men i went and played the whole konami game (the arcade where you could be one of six characters and for some reason magneto was using the sentinels). first episode was called "Weapon X, Lies, and Videotapes" which is an insane title for a cartoon (a take on "sex, lies, and videotapes"). guest appearances had silver fox and maverick, plus wolverine and sabretooth in their spy outfits i love so much. next episode was a two-parter with bishop and trevor fitzroy (sp?) and nimrod. it had the alternate future where the avengers are sent in to take on some mutants. the next episode had morph morph into strong guy before he and wolverine went to take on sentinels. yeah, that's why i loved it. now, i did fall asleep in the fourth episode......which is probably a more appropriate reaction we should have but i was also drunk by then.
  7. well, hate to burst your idea.....but anyone remember when Digger Mesch (?) did his kickstarter for Agent 88? he is (one of?) the creator(s) of minimates. he had a reward a bunch of different ones. i went for the most expensive one...........and got jack shit. i reached out to him and he promised me a sketch to make up for it but never delivered. he also said the minimate fans were the worst complainers about not getting their rewards. he seemed bitter. claimed art asylum was stolen out from under him while he was in asia or something. what sucks is i never even got to watch the damn show/movie/whatever it was. when peter mayhew (chewbacca) died i felt really bad about not getting this minimate anyways, the goal of this one was a movie, not toys. but i just don't know if there would be enough support to warrant making a custom for kickstarter. it'd have to be dst's own property (or something like battle beasts i imagine) and then how many folks would turn up for a new property? now, i'm no expert. i know that one company did really well with bucky o'hare and then another company did a line that had madman and savage dragon in it. so ??? that said, i'd support any minimate kickstarter. give me a fucking motorcycle base or a tiger. did
  8. oh its bad, but in a good way. plots were over dramatic and over simplified but we got to see so much. the designs and just seeing my favorite characters on tv was a huge deal. oh course, right after it was the tick was holds up much better but whatever. tick minimates wouldn't sell, would they?
  9. i'm personally thinking morph would be awesome. as well as maybe some of the other 90's characters that for some reason have been skipped in the main line: maverick, that spy looking wolverine (dept h? no idea) and some x-force charcters like Kane or Bridge. colossus appeared in the same episode as juggernaut i believe (i have all the dvds). plus captain america, i think war machine, punisher, spider-man -- i think they all had cameos.
  10. wow, the walgreens mates have been my favorites for a while now but now i'm super excited!!
  11. i was at a show where Jim Lee did sketches for EVERYONE in line. and good ones too. when DC capped the line while people were still running to get in line this one guy started yelling and screaming and called Jim Lee DC's bitch..........and it was a friend of mine. oddly enough probably the nicest guy in the world. Not sure what set him off that day. probably seeing 50 people ahead of you all getting a Jim Lee sketch and not you. I got a Flash.
  12. i don't think anyone has the right to complain about not getting a freebie. i wish everyone could be made happy but that just isn't always going to be the case. i would say some kinda heads up would have been nice. can i ask what prevented you from promoting it in advance?
  13. cost me $35 on ebay right after that sdcc but i got one. i was even at that sdcc and somehow missed it. but i have the other 3 and it was killing me to be missing one.
  14. well, i just read that a third party is using the micro machines brand name to bring back GI JOE: https://news.hisstank.com/2019/06/04/hasbro-to-re-launch-micro-machine-toys-66538 interesting. i'd certainly go nuts for GI JOE minimates......i bought most of the KREO and the ones i didn't buy i certainly regret not buying.
  15. if you can convert mine to loose please do -- for environmental reasons more than cheaper shipping. hell, i'd let you keep the shipping difference.
  16. i went to a soccer match this weekend and they were giving away bobbleheads of a player to the first 5000 people. apparently a bunch of people get into collecting bobbleheads through promotions like that. i'm thinking a movie event like this would be cool. just throwing it out there. i know they do freebies at sdcc and nycc but i can't remember the last freebie (other than donatello and no one got that one). but looking back, it was a freebie at toyfair that was my first minimate (the black larger one). from there i bought a few here and there but then a free comic book day one got me really hooked.
  17. yeah, i didn't see it on diamond's ship list.
  18. ordered two sets. one of my favorite comic moments was in x-cutioner's song where he had the one man congo line going. i had actually written to DST about making an army builder pack out of this figure for shows and what not. cool to see my idea was deemed viable enough for someone to attempt. thanks!!
  19. i will order it blindly. but waiting a day isn't going to kill me. question is do you have a bundle deal with the full set?
  20. ah man, i'd love a 80's ninja turtle vs bruce lee set. yeah, i'm shocked the 80's turtle line didn't get preorders needed.......... minimates are perfect for martial arts!! the street fighter ones are still my favorites (capcom vs marvel included).
  21. ha! i have that saved as a favorite and i check it to see random things. great time waster.
