I thought there was a checklist-style database somewhere around here, though I might be mis-remembering a lot of it. It’s been quite a few years. Gotta admit…sometimes I wish I hadn’t stopped on Minimates. Now I realize how there’s just no way I could ever jump back in. There’s so many. That’s a good thing for them though.

Hail Ivan!

Nice! That's exciting. Though it does make me sad that I missed out on your Nightthrasher and Namorita customs.

It's an entirely brainless exchange. Each pun is more toothless than the last.

Here is a question i have for the group: what are some of the ways y'all deal with getting a minimate head out of a full face covering headpiece?

currently stuck trying to get Space Suit Lamberts helmet off

Stick it in the freezer overnight and it should slide right off. 

Hm.

It could be Gypsy Moth or Cardinal/Harrier?

I'm gonna guess that the next custom is some version of Abe Jenkins.

The Vinimates 2-pack should ship late September.

That's enough for me!

You're the best, Zach.

Yes, but they have different costumes. I personally love the Perez costumes more but they aren’t true to the New Warriors line. 

Wouldn't be the first time we've gotten a completed team in contrasting costumes. 

Marvel Boy and Firestar could easily be placed in a Busiek/Perez Avengers set. 

Bebop is the star of the set for me. I'm also really impressed with the Foot Soldier. I love the extended hand pieces and I wish he'd been given slipper feet for even more awkward proportions like in the cartoon. Can't wait to have a battalion of those guys!

yay shot

I love this one. Definitely gonna need Skywarp and the rest of the '86 cast.

Please tell us this line isn't dead, Zach!

yay shot

This is the best I could figure out, guys.

Not unprecedented

If it were to be a Spider-Verse set based on the 2015 comic, I would imagine the line up consisting of:

Spider-Man Peter Parker (with Mayday Parker baby)
Silk
Scarlet Spider Kaine (Kind of Ben Reilly, but completes the trio)
Spider-Man 2099 or Spider-Punk (Newly popular character)
Morlun
Spider-Ham pack in figure. 

This is glorious!

Can someone please tell me how to upload pictures so I can post yay shots? 

I've tried all the old tricks and they're not working.

That wouldn't make a bad set, especially if Disney's still planning on using those costumes for a D+ cartoon. I'd love it if they could come with the Rose and Black Tarantula to reflect the Identity Crisis storyline, but that doesn't as likely.

Yes, I would encourage the inclusion of Morlun.

I was all for the wrestler Turtles as a box set until NECA went ahead and did it. 

Why can't you still do it? I've been dreaming of Archie Comics minimates since the retro figures resurfaced. 

I definitely think its just five different spider-men.

We had Kraven so recently I’d be surprised if they did him again that quickly. I don’t think his look changed that much. 

Isn't that the cloned son of Kraven, though? Or something? Could technically be a new character.

Then I'll take Beak, Angel, Dust, Surge, Anole, Bling, No-Girl, etc...

Oh, goodness there's a whole host of mid-2000's/early-2010's mutants that it would be monumental to receive!

Not to mention... Generation X...

I won't get too into detail, but if we get started now (I've seen the designs), maybe we can show them at Toy Fair or NYCC. Series 84 goes up for pre-order late August. 

Can you hint to us what era these figures are specific to, if any?

I saw Oppenheimer and I liked it; it was just like Citizen Kane. 

Zach, you're a class act. Thank you for providing answers to our questions. I look forward to seeing what D-Man looks like!

Glad to know that Echo isn't completely canned. Hopefully she could show up in a New Avengers assortment. We could use an updated Sentry and classic Spider-Woman (Queen Veranke head included) to go with her! I'd especially love to see her transform into Ronin.
