So Zach, will we be seeing packaged pics soon??
ditto.... hope so
and more of your awesome facebook photos please -
tempted to google "paipan" now. thanks winkerbean.....

Got mine today and I may say, this is an absolute winner. Reminds me a lot of the first Alpha Flight set. In that not only are we getting much needed characters that look great, but there is nothing at all to complain about. Joints are snug but not stuck, paint aps are perfect, stands are the newer hard plastic as seen in the Best of 2 wave, accessories fit perfect, just great work all around. I know we're still early in the year, but it's gonna be tough to dethrone this as "best box set" of 2013.
I wouldn't count out the yet-to-be-revealed IM3 one.

that Stan Lee is too cool. Who wouldn't want one??! A definite seller!!
DST get on this.

glad i wasn't the only one. her face kinda reminds me of winona ryder, must be the nose.
-
thanks for the heads up. i just ordered Expendables Series 1 Box Set (the coolest one of the four).
the best part of this set, you get an alternate head and hairpiece for Ivan Vanko
-
niiice!!! im really liking the civie-mates, particularly Henry, Scott, Donald, and Hank. Recipes??
And kudos to your parts bin! Wish I had that much spare parts to warrant separate storage. But your customs are great.

Not sure if she's got some sheer fabric on under the gold bikini or if her skin is just really pale. I've been staring way too long and still can't seem to figure it out

I would guess it's going to be DOFP in the same way that First Class was "First Class," or X3 was "The Phoenix Saga." There are going to be some X-men in it, there's going to be time-travel, and there are going to be a bunch of randomly-selected characters that look look on posters and may or may not have some relation to their characters in the books.
Well put. although X3 was technically "The Last Stand" bwahaha. We'll see how close "The Wolverine" is to "The Wolverine". Trailer was "meh" IMO.

My attempt to make a team, though I need Archangel/Psylocke/Jubilee/Cable/and Bishop, and costume changes for Storm, Gambit, and Colossus
love the kitty

Don't we have a speculation thread for these shenanigans?
blame zach
hehe -
The unique box set might just be a box of clear stands. Haha, certainly qualifies as "accessory heavy"
-
pretty sweet Hercules!

I'm no Luke but I liked kaipo's suggestion so much that I just had to make one for my own...
i just nerdgasmed
That looks so perfect. Just include the alternate regular torso piece and we'd be good to go. DST get on this!
-
that is pretty awesome
-
Beautiful, the Phoenix Force 5 are some of my favorite costume designs, really hope we get Magik
and here is the design sheet for Emma
Do you play Avengers Alliance? that's the game that the first image is from

I'll attempt to be serious about Female Minimates ,so no mass debating ...........
Two of my all time Top 20 Minimates would include Valkyrie & Wonder Woman & it is amazing how well both stand up to scrutiny some 6 years after each was produced . I love minimates & I love sex..... I'm probably unusual in not requiring the internet for the latter
. Sexiness is perhaps lacking in many female minimates,this is probably healthy for the target audience which sadly isn't most of us here .The average male will 'check out' a female in the manner males do .....I shan't elaborate too much because Dino's monitor has just been cleaned.......& unfortunately too many female Minimates appear to have big arses & fat legs when they're wearing a formal skirt or dress . I give you Mary Jane who looks like this in the comics......
.......I swear I'd have married her in the day ,she's just gorgeous .
Her Minimate appears to have eaten most of the pies
That is an extreme example but the hip-heaviness that is inherent in the Minimate design just doesn't help at times.
So what shall I say about female breasts on Minimates ? There are some beauties but they are almost universally painted
& to my mind the ones that succeed the best are where the design of the costume accentuates the breasts. Most superheroines' costumes accentuate the breasts but this is a 'no go' with many civilians & that's perhaps why they often don't appeal . That is perhaps the most simplistic & sexist thing I have ever written but I believe it to be true.I've always felt this way, glad someone said it first. Block figures just don't compliment a woman's curves.
This mary jane might be a better inspiration for the minimate. .....

Back to the topic. THIS Stan variant would sell truckloads. (Give him an iron man gauntlet as well)
Easy to produce, all the parts are reused.
One of Luke's masterpieces....sorry forgot that earlier .
Please QC this Luke....

Kids these days....I knew galactus at 7 years old.
I played football with him when he was 8 years old .
He devoured the ball .
Ol' world eater. Quite a poor sport.

I'll take a ' Battle-damaged Sue-er Stan' or a 'Litigation Lee'
bhm's/DST's best battle damaged Minimate by a country mile - Mk.3 Iron Man (Hostile Takeover) which is immensely superior to the Wave 21 version .
Agreed. The wave 21/first iron man movie armors are the best (mark
2,3,damaged 3, and stealth). I prefer them to all of the IM2 ones. More
detail (mark 2 rivets....) and more accessories (Removeable faceplates,
alternate legs, fire foot blasts)

I want that briefcase so badly.
If you are a fan of the movies it is a must have IMO. So many cool movie replicas included and you get all the movies with awesome artwork

the sentinel head is epic.
Strange Tales Box Set
in Marvel Minimates

Makes sense. I'm curious about the "unique" box set that Zach mentioned.
