karamazov80 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 So. . .I never saw the original post that this thread is obviously based on. Is there actually a Peter Pan Minimate happening? If so, does "retailer exclusive" mean it will be sold exclusively at Disney stores, or that the retailers will get a free promo a la Santa Spidey?

groundhog7s Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 There was a speculation thread where Zach gave a few hints about an upcoming vehicle and two boxsets. Through the clues he gave, the general concensus became Peter Pan through Disney Stores. Nothing confirmed of course, but it seems majority rules so that must be what it is.

Mattallica Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) in the speculation thread it was stated that a previously unannounced retailer exclusive would go on sale 2/11/13, there were some hints given as to it being based on a movie, pre 1950's i think, from a major studio, utilizing the new small(kid) legs/arms, 1 vehicle etc... the think tank that is MMMV deduced that it made sense that since it coincided with the dvd relase date for peter pan that this was likely the property.

karamazov80 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) LOL I see. Well, I'm just gonna assume that that's what it is, then! And have I never posted there? Guess I don't deal in speculation and hearsay, but in cold, hard facts. That's what separates me from the riff-raff, really.

The Vox Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Today may be the day that the story is revealed from Zach himself. He stated in the spec thread that the line will not hit until March. -Fellow lost boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) Somewhere in a warehouse in America sits cases of new Minimates exclusives. Untouched and unsoiled by this wicked world. If the world descended into a zombie apocalypse overnight tonight, I would have my first quest.

I'm in.. just promise me we will also seek out the long lost twinkie warehouse.

Junk food and alcohol! Do you think wearing a suit made of zombie minimates would allow one to walk unnoticed among the zombie hordes? Probably not...

TM2 Dinobot Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Those are some very nice photos. Much better than the usual shots. I wonder who took them. Also, they feel like Speed Racer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I love how these 'mates remind me of the old days - relatively simple decals, cartoony faces, etc. Disney properties are a great fit for Minimates (attached photos for anyone who might not be able to access the link) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Cubby sure looks like a good base for a Blob custom. Nice stuff overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I have said before I wasn't sold fully on these and to be honest I'm still not but I can see these being a big seller. Even just for customisers the parts alone are worth the buy. The mini tinkerbell as a base for wasp, top hat and umbrella are a rare part and essential for any penguin custom or even ringmaster with the hat. Talking of hats hooks just screams foolkiller to me.
