Gotta admit, the underwhelming Endgame Minimates (both in design and not being able to find them) and the lack of Spider-Man FFH and Spider-Verse 'Mates, has really put me off from Minimates. I've always collected a lot of different toy lines, but Minimates have been number one for a while. I think that's gonna change though. Hasbro has really stepped their game up with Legends and I think those are gonna take over as my #1 toy line now.

Wow. No need to see the movie now...

They did this with Homecoming too, I went into it thinking that I'd seen the whole movie. Boy was a wrong. That car scene alone makes that movie amazing. But also! I actually didn't think this movie gave away a lot. We don't know exactly how Mysterio got here. We didn't see his heel turn. We don't know why Spider-Man gets his new suit. I think this was pretty tame compared to the Homecoming trailers.

I need an updated Gambit!

I'm an Axe head forward kinda guy.

its not really fair to compare DST to Hasbro and Funko though

Hasbro is  huge company with tons of money behind them and funko has competent people whom listen to their fans working for them ?

That shade!

Also, Hasbro just announced some of their spoilery stuff sooooo... YOUR MOVE DIAMOND

Endgame wave 2 Pops (spoilers)

sigh.....? sure would make a nice wave/boxset along w a few others.

So Funko still sees good sales even sometime after the movie?

Was just coming here to mention this!

Your move Diamond!

The movie came out a year ago, spoilers aren't a thing anymore.

I need one of these modeled after the MCU Giant-Man! Or any Giant-Man really. I just need one!

Considering 76 was a 90 storyline, 77 is mostly classic themed, and 78 is 90s inspired too. I hope we get something more recent for 79!

Wait, I’m confused. The captain marvel and ant man and the wasp minimates came out months after the movie’s release. So...

Ooooooh, got em there!

I get the feeling that, now that Fox has been acquired by Disney, Marvel will be discouraging licensees from offering Spider-Man product in an attempt to devalue the web-slinger's brand. That's what they did with Fantastic Four and X-Men. Now they're probably setting their sights on Spidey.

Oh God, I hope not! ?? Don't get me wrong, I'll love getting new X-Men and Fantastic Four stuff. Especially Minimates, but Spider-Man is my favorite character!

Wave 76, maximum carnage 

No, a box set being a 4 pack.

Also, when did wave 76 come out? October? And I don't think we've gotten a comic wave since. Nobody's been able to find the new Animated Waves. The Captain Marvel box set hasn't been released yet. Two Spider-Man movies that aren't getting Minimates directly for the movie. (I know FFH has the tie-in wave, but it's not movie accurate.) Obviously losing TRU was a huge blow as I assume they were their number one retailer, but since then, they've really slowed down on specialty waves, relying heavily on Walgreens who have pretty terrible distribution. Also, why don't they have Disney store exclusive Minimates? They have Disney store Selects. And the PVC statues have made it to GameStop. DST needs another retail option to get Minimates going again

I think we are talking ourselves into a cancellation. The line actually isn’t that bad off but if we keep picking at it the way we do one here it could be. 

You might be right. There might not be a cancellation coming, but there's no denying that the amount of Minimates, especially Marvel, released per year has definitely dropped. Also, when's the last time we got a comic book box set?

Boy am I disappointed. Boy do I feel like crap saying I'm disappointed. Anyways, cue the MCU fanboys telling me I have the "wrong opinion."

Allow me to go back and correct my comment earlier. To be disappointed is fine. That's an opinion, one that you're more than welcome to have. I wasn't disappointed with the movie, though I am disappointed with the Mates. However, what you said earlier was that the MCU doesn't have long term storytelling, which isn't an opinion. An opinion would be that you don't think the long term storytelling is very good. Which I don't agree with. But I was just being a dick earlier with that comment and I apologize.

Nope!

You don't think it's happening?

Two years ago I'd say it was a given, now I'd say it seems unlikely.

Yeah, unfortunately. The line really seems to be on the fast track to cancellation.

Is there something I’m not getting, or is WandaVision a really weird title?

It sounds more like a lazy ship name than a show.

No, I think it's a really bad name too.

Do you guys think we'll see anything for the Disney+ shows? Loki, WandaVision, Falcon and Winter Soldier, and Hawkeye? On one hand, the Netflix shows stopped getting box sets after season 2 of Daredevil, but on the other, these are shows that will be directly linked to the MCU and have bigger budgets, probably gonna feature a lot of costumed characters. Truthfully, my main concern is "Are Minimates going to still be around by then?" Because other than that, I don't see why they wouldn't do sets for these shows.

Saw the movie earlier and I gotta be honest, I'm disappointed with what we did get. Because there were some dope ass looks in the movie! I'd love a second wave or box set, but I don't see it happening. Minimates seem to be on a downward slope...

Oh oh! I got it. Goggles for Doctor Nemesis, Hawkeye straps for Domino and the chest for Colossus. There was a clue earlier haha.

The goggles though - you're not going to be able to get a hairpiece down with them on. I was going to use them for my Hank Pym wasp but couldn't because of that. You might be better off getting a movie Winter Soldier head with the same sort of mask/goggles as Doctor Nemesis.

Nope! It's actually for Ultimate Hawkeye and an MCU Mysterio. But now I might need two of each piece. ?

I think he finally gets it guys!

Wait, was I not before? ?

Hey guys! I need a few pieces for some customs I'm working on. Hoping somebody (preferably all from the same person) can help me get a hold of the pieces I'm looking for! Here's a link to the post on my Instagram.

Anyone have any ideas for a good hairpiece for Hawkeye? Daken's seems a little large and not totally accurate as only the sides of his head are shaved.

The M'Baku hair piece.

Dont think this counts as a spoiler but...

 

 

 

 

there is no post credit sting so dont wait.

I read somewhere that there was still something at the very end though?

With that new Marvel Legends figure, which is fantastic, I'd like to see Hercules get an update.

Has anybody made the Cable and X-Force? I absolutely love the design and the comic. I wish they would've made them in Minimates form!
