Good name for an Irish prostitute! LOL

ToysRUs in Vancouver had Playmobil stuff on sale this weekend and I decided to pick up some horses for my Western mates. I'm super happy with how they fit!

Horrible colour matching aside, I love my Wave 37 Thing. I swapped shorts with the TRU Thing so he could have a nice 4 logo on his belt.

I've an inkling you'll be back! Couldn't let you go without an attempt at a bad pun.

As long as it's not that bloody irritating Crazy Frog Axel and Serge two-pack. I love it! What you need bhm is a nice espresso with lymone tweest. I mek it reht here in de bek myself! :tongue:

QUOTE (Donny B @ Feb 9 2011, 05:49 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I remember one along these lines, too. What I'm recalling had limitations like "all poses must be natural positions a minimate can be put in" (ie, no photoshopping or altering of the 'mate in any way) It must have been something like 4 years ago? ... I also did a relatively extensive search and came up with nothing. Could it have been from one of the old boards? You mean this one ("The time has come for action!")? I've been planning to necro it once I finish with some photos of my mates in action.

Get a second one and put him with both groups. Problem solved.

I was thinking about what would go with these guys when setting up dioramas and it came to me. We need a News Crew with satellite uplink, a mailman and an ambulance chasing lawyer! Also, some badguys and victims of some kind.

Broadway TRU in Vancouver did not have any of these as of last Saturday. I only eyeballed it though. Did not talk to anyone. They did have Friends and Foes for about $10 though.

Wait, so. . .GrimZata is actually "That Guy," and through a hiccup in time encountered a thread he himself started, and started a new thread based on a vague recollection of viewing that thread, which he actually created the thread in the first place? *Keaunu Reeves voice*--Whoa. This reminds me very much of one of my favorite lines from Futurama which went something like, "Oh sure, let's all take advice on not polluting the time line from Mr. I'm my own Grampa!" LOL

Check out the flea market section of this site. I have this set on my trade list but you'll need to have something I want. There is also a want to buy/sell thread. Someone may have a set listed there. And, of course, ebay.

Iron Man's head looks like the one under HulkBuster's flip up helmet.

I agree about simple hands unless it makes sense for the character. But they should try to make all hands capable of holding any accessories that might come with them or offer the basic hand to swap when holding is required. Gorn, I'm looking at you! No wonder Kirk won. You can't even hold your weapon! If DST were to make any change to the standard minimate, I would want them to add another point of articulation between the shoulder and elbow so that a mate can cross its arms. One of our customizers here posted about doing this in a thread I stumbled across many moons ago and it was awesome.

LOL! You forgot to mention that when you got home there was a minimate hand still hanging from the door handle of your car.

Anyone considering a trade with Cylonchaney should be aware, I know how to pack!

Nice work! If you want to go one up on this, there's a thread in here somewhere where someone did the same thing but by cutting up two sets of arms, I think, they added a point of articulation about where you glued. I wish they would update the standard design to be that way. It was really cool.

I love all of the Bat Caves, Halls of Armor etc. I've seen around here. So, with the upcoming Fantastic Four updates starting to arrive, I thought I would share my minimate Baxter Building. It's mostly the Mega Bloks set from a few years ago enhanced with some Lego and minimates. Anyone else have a Baxter Building? Wide shot Sue scanning the Thing Mr. Fantastic trying to figure out what's with this surfer dude Nick Fury in the upper office trying to hack into their computer The mates in the cell are meant to represent the Zombie FF I don't have an actual FF Torch but Invaders Torch will do for now Namor and Doom look down from the top floor

Hmm, can't seem to find that picture you're talking about. I'm interested in getting this set, but not without seeing how it looks with a minimate on the glider. I used a couple of those sets to make up a little Spidey scene. There are a couple of pics in my post here: http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.ph...st&p=160514

Nice Armory. For lighting you might look for a hobby store that carries model railroad stuff. They should have all kinds of tiny low voltage lights.

If anyone ended up with extra complete waves, check out my want / have list. Really want these two waves. Thx.

Same hand as the holster if there is one. Otherwise, right. Army builders should include a few lefties. If I know a character's handedness, I will try to match it if possible. For example, Classic BSC have basically reversible holsters and I think Apollo was a leftie if I have it right.

I just read through this whole thread tonight. Very funny stuff. Keep it up.

I call it Spidey's bad day. I have a couple more villains to pull out before it's complete.

If caught they will be beaten with hoses then it's the Electrolux Chair!
