Mnemosis Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 We could refer to the "loose cowls" as "unmasks" masked is to mask as unmasked is to unmask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Thats cool (about brood). With all that new tooling, it's not unfeasible to think that DST might re-use them again sometime to create a Brood Queen in a future wave. Now - who's ready to abandon Kang & start campaigning for Gateway? :biggrin: Gateway'd be neat, but he's no Kang. Keep your noisy bullroarer away from my precious conqueror!

Mirymate Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Gateway'd also be expensive to do "right". You would need to tool a new lower torso/stand so he can sit cross-legged on the ground. Between that and the spinning bullroarer accessory that's a lot of character specific tooling for such a minor character. Kang on the other hand can be made using either entirely existing parts, or at most very few new pieces. Just sayin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Kang's also...y'know... actually an important character. No offense to Gateway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsMarvel fan Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 he's skinny, couldn't they just give him arms as legs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowlar Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 he's skinny, couldn't they just give him arms as legs? Better yet, by reusing the puffy shoulder arms, Halo Spartan belt, and the thin waist would give him pretty good articulation. He can't cross his legs but without doing sculpted legs that wouldn't happen anyway and the puffy sleeves is a good imitation of his loincloth/wrap. So the only new new parts that he would need would be a new beard/hair piece, his bull-roarer accessory, and possibly a new foot/boot. As a plus the only tampos needed would be his face, chest, and possibly his back. Hey, we got a teleporting dog with Outback Psyloche so packaging him with Avengers Crystal (Black and White uniform) or Medusa would make a twisted sort of sense.

Especially now that it has been pointed out that 3 separate characters could use such a piece. I will try not to get my hopes up though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 If DST could sculpt a stretch base for Mr. Fantastic, I think they could pull off a cross-legged base as well. That being said, I'll bet we'll see a Kang Minimate before we get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 These ideas are all fantastic. You are getting my hopes right up for a character, that by all accounts, is even less likely to be made than Gideon. I will blame you all for my personal heart-break when we find that Gateway never gets made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 For crossed legs, what if they made a new crotch piece like this: You could use normal Minimate legs and feet but I don't know if it would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 If they were going to make a crossed legs piece, I would just make it one solid piece that plugs into the torso. Fewer parts to put it together I think raises your chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we get Dhalsim (if SFxT is going beyond 1 wave and we get a Dhalsim that is) I’ll need to get a second so I can mod his hips in this fashion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'd welcome Kang, since he's a villain and a new character, but not being an Avenger fan, I don't know nor care who he is, to be honest. Being an X-Fan, however, I would LOVE a Gateway Minimate. They wouldn't even have to include a regular lower half, for all I care. Just the crossed-legs. Then, we could also get a teleporting disc-effect for him to hold above his head, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
