You figure we could get some Street Fighter Minimates while we are at it?

Only as a solid for you, sir.

DC MATES ARE AND WILL REMAIN DEAD!!!

At this point the only way to bring them back is if you buy DC and I buy DST and then we can resurrect them. I am a little low on cash at the moment so unless you can spot me I guess they are going to stay dead.

I suppose now the question becomes do we have to wait until monday for the next clue?

Militant chinchillas up to no good

This is likely what happened.

I'd love to get Planet Terror, and Death Proof if it comes with a car!

Yes.

Good guesses, but isn't the key to this tying in the title of the blog entry with the solution?

what if the title is a red herring and just the numbers are significant?

This is so awesome. Click the pic to read the article.

Ok here is what I have. I don't think that the number represent letters I added them up and got the following:

50+59+12=121

47+89+89=225

3+96+74+78+12=263

After doing this I sought out covers of different Marvel comics with these numbers, doing so led me to believe that this is going to be an X-men wave.

Here is the cover of Uncanny X-Men 121

Who wouldn't like Alpha Flight mates?

Here is the cover for Uncanny X-Men 225

Comic Blob anyone?

Here is the cover for Uncanny X-Men 263

An official forge Minimate would be cool.

All of this is completely based on a hunch so try not to be too pissed if I turn out to be full of crap, but you have to admit it's an amazing coincidence that those numbers lead to those covers of mates that have yet to be made. I wonder what sort of X-Men army builder they could have though? *Cough* Hellfire Club *Cough*

Again pure speculation.

Although Avengers 225 contains this fellow:

I am going to stop now before I drive myself insane.

Aeon Flux (again, case might be similar to Tomb Raider)

mtv would own those rights if they reverted, and paramount owns mtv

I think that technically Viacom owns Mtv and Paramount. I am not sure if there is a pecking order as far as properties goes.

I could get behind some Tommy Boy minimates.

I just got home from watching the movie (at a theatre, mind you) and it is extremely mediocre. There is some cringe worthy CG and I would give it a C. I love the mates though.

I emailed AFX and they will be holding "a few sets" to sell on the website after the show.

How about a 90's style dreadlocked Vanilla Ice

You may have jumped the shark on this one.

And when did Dial Tone have his 'operation' anyway?

Oh man. Funniest thing I've heard all day. Still, she was cute.

EDIT: Crap. I've gotta have this. http://www.hisstank.com/gi-joe-news/gi-joe...ve-destro-8316/

Could you post a pic of that it won't let me view it without joining the board which I do not want to really do.

You know your a minimate addict when your buying two of every mate so you can display them both one with the mask on and one with mask off.

or so that you have a back up in case the other fails. If I have one of something I have two of it. Damn OCD.

I'm curious where this is all going. Will this be an on-going thing sometime?

I don't think so. If it was I don't know where they would go from here

I love the TRU waves for the simple fact that I have a TRU in town. Add that to the fact that I am probably the only minimate collector in my little burb and it makes it even easier to pick up any and all exclusives. The only thing that would make it more awesome is that if they started carrying the speciality exclusives too. I can't go to my LCS because I went cold turkey a couple years ago and all it would take to get back in is one trip there. I had to buy a whole case of mates to get him to order any.

The ending was meh.

I really like the Ultimate Cap figure and the "Top Secret" document that came with him is rather interesting as well. The Terminator and Star Trek toys are all other my TRU. They are both made by Playmates and are both underwhelming.

Well if we're gonna get pedantic all about it...

Nice pull sir.

Pretty cool going clayface1. I don't know if DST will actually respond to it, but if Minimates actually do score the Mortal Kombat license (doubtful, given Minimates's target demographic and the game's "gore") then count me in as one potentially ecstatic collector.

I wonder who we have to write to so that Toys R Us will start selling their Minimate exclusives in branches overseas...

I don't think that there is a place for Mortal Kombat minimates or merchandise in general. I think that the ship has sailed on that franchise as a whole. I can't believe that I am going to say this (due to my loathing of the SF mates) but 2 months or so ago would have been as good a time as any to bring back the Street Fighter mates because Street Fighter 4 was awesome. As for minimates overseas if they sell well here in the states I think that they will be available to everyone no matter the nationality bringing us (society) one step closer to a unified people. You heard it here first folks Minimates have the power to unite the World.

Your custom is cool Clayface. I applaud your gumption and apologize for referring to you as prepubescent.

Good for you! That's a damn fine custom & it's something they'll definitely look at. I also find it incredible that you joined this forum when you were 10/11 years old Amazing!

I agree with you BHM! Awesome custom and e-mail (you MIGHT want to work on the grammar a bit though...)

Oh yeah, not to brag, but I'm also 11 years old! It's just maybe I lack the skills to do the real customs... no equipment to do it (I do have a few simple Mighty Mugg and Minimate digital customs though )

What's with all the prepubescent people posting (I love alliteration, don't worry kids you'll learn about that one in high school) on this board? I have never felt older.

Adult Swim sites videos wont play for me anymore. :\

And I just watched 8 & 9. Wow....

Scarlett is the matrix, not only did Stormshadows voice suck but so did the amount of teenage angst they gave him, and then they kill him, and Zartan had like two lines!

5 minute episodes dont leave a whole lot of time for idle conversation.

Why is Wolverine so cool?

I think that it is because he is so feral. There is something primitive that appeals to people. It helps that he is bad ass and nearly indestructible.

I just got home from buying ALL of the Wolverine mates that were in stock which came out to 2 full sets and an extra Logan/Deadpool
