  1. I saw these at my local TRU. The figures are not quite as exaggerated as the Superhero Squad. They are basically the kid Justice League figures in a smaller size.
  2. My list is Lethal Weapon First Blood Mad Max Top Gun The Godfather
  3. I was seriously considering getting off of this mad addiction to minimates. I have a nice size collection that I could have sold for some extra cash just keeping the few that have meaning to me and selling the rest. Then I see the Ironman box set. Then I see the Invaders set. Fuck me. Damn you DST and bless you at the same time.,
  4. I guess in the big push for the movie and related merchandise I found these at the Walden Books (or whatever it's called these days). So if you missed them before check you local bookstore.
  5. I saw this earlier and apart from it being a little too long it was pretty enjoyable. I could have lived without most of the Sprittle and Chim Chim but mark my work Emile Hirsch is on the brink. This movie will not be the one that pushes him over but the kid is headed for superstardom. it was good to see a different side of Matthew Fox as well. If you have kids take them they will love this.
  6. So I have spent my day playing GTA4 and I must say it is awesome. Purely awesome.
  7. Congrats on the older mates and welcome to the addiction.
  8. 4!!! holy cow man thats a lot lol Jeff of the Miniacs I know, I know *hangs head in junkie shame and continues to shake until UPS delivers my fix a few days from now*
  9. I couldn't help myself and ordered 4. Damn I have no self control.
  10. They just said Heroes mates are probably going to happen. AWESOME.
  11. Please put me down for the Civil War boxset.
  12. i am all for that. I feel no need to own MacGyver in different size mullets.
  13. I disagree I think that this is a dplace where minimates may be able to finally break into the mainstream. Not huge waves but little one shots kind of the way that they make Kubricks of seemingly everything. I would be totally with this. It could easily go past NBC, who wouldn't want to see Lost mates? Or The Shield? Dare i even say The Sopranos, or Entourage, The Wire, or maybe even OZ where each 2 pack is the cell and you could collect them all to build Em City. The Office ones could come with cubicles to recreate the offices of Dunder Mifflin. I need to lay down i am getting too excited about something I know is never going to happen. A-Team including the Van. MacGyver 21 Jump Street Magnum PI Knight Rider and K.I.T.T. Ok I am done for now but imagine the possibilities.
  14. They are doing a big event kind of release the way that Star Wars did with the Phantom Menace and releasing them on May 1st.
  15. Pictures look awesome can't wait to own them. Is the hairpiece on Tony the sandman one? It's nice that they finally put the correct boots on Cap I just got an extra JSA Flash and put those on him up til now.
  16. Awesome. If we do in fact win a set do we get them now or will we have to wait until after NYCC?
  17. Well the jacket is the one off of the BSG mate Sharon and will be modified further. I'm not sure how to tackle the collar yet but I am giving it some thought. I thought about the Jack Bauer mates as well but that likeness is so recognizable as Kiefer Sutherland that it would end up looking like Jack Bauer on Halloween.
  18. Thanks. Definitely I went through my mates and the face on Paulie is way too round. I didn't even think of that. Thank you so much. I agree Sgt. Rock is a bit too grizzled I think I am going to cut and paste Kim Bauer's bag in place. I though of Blackhawk too and I think that it is the way to go. I have an idea to produce stubble without painstakingly dotting it on.
  19. I like that hat because it is a fedora like Indy wears. How do I go about priming it for paint to say i am new at this is a complete understatement.
  20. Well I was walking around Toys R Us and the answer to my custom Indiana Jones hat problem I was having leaped of the shelf in the form of this little guy Luckily all I had to do to remove it was the old boil and pop routine. After it was loose I put the dremel to it for a second or so and this is the first step of it be fore I fit it to a hairpiece. Comments? Advice? OK, well I have 3 sets of the Few Dollars More mates en route from LCS that should have been here a couple weeks ago (long story). So while I wait for them I went ahead and modified the Marty Hat from Back to the future 2 set it took me about 20 minutes with the Dremel but I ended with this. The picture is not the best but I am happy with the result and I have begun to consider fixing my Jay Garrick Flash. So after watching Raider's and Last Crusade lastnight I decided to look into making an Indiana Jones custom and I figured it would be pretty difficult but after a few minutes I came up with this. The only problem is I am not totally sold on the pants. I have also tried this. Any feedback would be appreciated. I don't know why I am getting so bent out of shape over the pants the tough parts will be modifying the hat and painting on the shirt which to be honest scares the bejesus out of me.
  21. I have purchased the MC which I openned and the Cortana which I have not but it is calling to me. She is the one that is short packed in the case and it's killing me not to open it.
  22. and let me know if you need someone to stand behind you with band aids so we can all be friends again.
  23. 1. Will the newer Marvel minimates (i.e. Hawkeye and Havoc) have hairpieces to go along with their removable masks? 2. Have you guys ever considered some blanket accessory packs that go along with all of the wonderful minimates you make? 3. Some minimate scale vehicles would also be nice.
