ReAction makes a Rocketeer 3 3/4 figure with removable Helmet that could work for a custom, maybe a lil big but you could make it work. I'd switch in the Shield or Nick Fury Jet Pack. Calico Jack-Robert Deal for the brown boots.
Thanks man. I actually have a really good custom one. The ReAction helmet is way too big FWIW. That one was oversized on that figure itself too. Womp Womp.
But I’d still love an official one.

Sorry, I was thinking of someone else. We are making Warduke. And a villainous animal....
Okay good.
I was like, how the F you gonna do D&D and don't do pretty much the universally most recognizable toy from the vintage line.
Good stuff! I'm in!
-
The lack of a Warduke is disappointing. He’s easily the most popular D&D toy and the one most collectors know.
-
If they made an Aubrey she would have to be making a stupid pose in front of and blocking all the wrestlers in the package.
-
So the 4 Turtles? I mean, I'll probably buy it, but I want more out of lines than the main 4.
Also, whose arm do I gotta twist to get a Rocketeer MM? Just slip it into another multipack. No one will notice!
I kid. Sort of.

So are we getting a Warduke?

I'm down for a Sting minimate.

I recently learned that not only were Schwarzenegger and Ventura governors, but Sonny Landham (who played Billy) also ran in a primary for a Kentucky gubernatorial election.
Shane Black or Carl Weathers need to run for office, and keep the streak alive.
I'll also take this time to campaign for a new/final/commemorative box set, with "a Dutch" variant, a chest-hole Blain, an arm-rip Dillon, and a plasma-casting Predator with spinal column accessory.
Gary Busey (Predator 2) also ran for governor against Arnold.

I really liked the Jeff Goldblum L&O and I quite enjoyed Criminal Intent overall.
If we're getting L&O, I think Michael Cutter is underrated.
Also you gotta have a Jack McCoy.
Goldblum's Raines was also a wildly underrated show.
Also I know we're not getting L&O.

Told ya it was Bobo!
-
You'd think that, but that mandate is so well known there's no way DST tried to slip that by.
I'm going with Bobo the clown.

ROFL.
Promise a bunch of really cool announcements, then only deliver one (a pretty bland repaint set) and now we hear we may not even get the other reveals anytime soon.
I know, not your fault man, but this is just a kick in the pants.
Also having to remove an entire figure from the Joe lineup. Are there Joes that are off limits now?
-
Rita, Zedd, Goldar, Finster and 2 putties!
-
Exciting, although what's not being revealed is more enticing to me.
But all the new stuff is exciting. PLEASE BE GOOD STUFF!
-
Hasbro has Sgt. Slaughter back under contract.
Now's the time to strike DST! Get me a Sarge figure!

It is worth mentioning thatRise of the TMNT is getting a Netflix movie this year so it is still going in a way. Could be those guys
A valid point, but I doubt it's those. Rise's movie is only still coming out because it was already moving along when Rise died off. I think Nick is done with Rise overall and are already working on what the next iteration will be. Rise was pretty much a flop overall so it would be a real risk for DST to go that route.
I think the video game tie-in would be more successful than Last Ronin and the 80s designs already shown to use the most successful, but I think the IDW Last Ronin stuff might be the most likely.
I'm stoked for the hopes for more TMNT though.
-
I still say released the retro turtles as designed would be more successful than anything IDW or otherwise (there's a ton of Last Ronin stuff solicited and I doubt it's all gonna sell) despite whatever previous lackluster solicitations there may have been.
At the time Minimates was cooking pretty good and I don't think everyone realized they had to pre-order or the line would be canceled. It was a different era when lots of stuff was making it to shelves. And the retro TMNT boom hadn't happened, there was a bit of TMNT fatigue after the terrible movies, the end of the Nick show and Megabloks flooding the market with niche TMNT stuff.
Now I think a set of retro 87 TMNT would sell very well.
-
Just a reminder of how great these looked...

We're actually working on something with this again, I'll keep you guys posted.
SERIOUSLY?! Please say they're coming back.
I wanted those classic TMNT Minimates SO bad. C'mon DST!

I'm wondering if this means will get the Power Rangers Zeo team. A lot companies do Mighty Morphin and then stop, so I'm hoping this licence can keep going.
I mean with MMPR there are a ton of villains and things you can do. I'd like to see them do that.
That said, with the core team out of the way, it does make me wonder just how deep they could go without adding in another ranger team. There's a few variants you could do of the main MMPR team, but eventually it's just villains.
-
One wonders if white Ranger Tommy will also get an alternate head, since they don't even show him with a human head at all.
-
Second wave looks good. It will be nice to have the full crew together. I do hope we get some villains though.
-
I call dibs on Zach's sideburns.
-
I mean I guess he's always technically a "guest appearance" but I just wanted to inform people, it's not like Vader on BMW or something, he's on there fairly regularly, sometimes in bits, sometimes a bit more. Anywho, nice work!

Got my MMPR figs in today.
Word of warning that the helmets are held in with tape. No issue removing mine, but be careful not to damage the paint.
These are without hyperbole, some of the nicest Minimates I've EVER bought. These just NAIL the MMPR. Tons of accessories (the helmets are super tight to put on but look great) and play value. In fact this feels like a really nice value set.
Five stars, bravo. Keep this up! Pass on my praise @DSTZach!
