TENIME_art Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I absolutely love the movie 'Mates, and incorporate them into my otherwise comic display! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lokash Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 This wave looks great , I am liking the variation in body types of the recent comic waves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Zex, I wouldn't mind AoA Bobby: ...or Emma Frost-possessed Bobby: (or even just one figure that could pass for either) (GDit, I love & miss Joe Madureira's art) ...but I think most people just want a Bobby Drake: Chris, Joe Mad is working for Marvel again. A recent arc of Savage Wolverine and now the upcoming Inhumans book, I believe. And I agree, an Iceman with 1) ice spike armor, 2) exaggerated ice fists/claws/blades, 3) an ice "tail" to swap out in place of his legs, and 4) no mouth would be SUPER keen. He MIGHT even force me to go back and get the AoA box sets I skipped. Bobby in his white and blue would be cool, no pun intended, and I'd likely display him separate from everyone with his MvC counterpart, the Capcom Sentinel. Hell, one could be the variant of the other, each packed with one of the Madri (I was so upset I never figured out that was the plural of Madrox before it was revealed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I wasn't complaining Zach, I just feel that when a comic wave knocks it out of the park it's an awesome sight. I like a lot of the movie 'mates, but usually there's less of an element of surprise there, it's much more of a jaw-dropper when DST completely kills it on a comic wave we weren't expecting.

kaipo Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Yeah these and wave 54 look great but as it stands after these we don't have a single comic marvel minimate to look forward to that's been shown or even officially announced! I can't recall when the last time was that happened, if ever? Let's hope it's rectified soon or there's gonna be a long gap... Wrong, actually. The Spidey foes and x force box sets were both announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 But not officially, is what he's saying. It's a fair cop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 So, what will be at TRU for Marvel after this wave? No Cap movie mates No Spidey movie mates Or are they focusing on other properties? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stegron01 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Thanks Zach, took the words right out of my mouth, well my keyboard lol. The only reason that matters from the point of view of what I was saying is that the fact they haven't reached the "official announcement" stage yet means the time to them (or anything else comic related) coming out seems very long after waves 54/18. However, for the record I wasn't complaining, sometimes I like movie 'mates too, I just much prefer comic ones and so like having some that I've seen to look forward to. Out of interest do I assume it was the foes of spidey/xforce sets that were shown at a panel? I hadn't heard that if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Yes, those were the two. Didn't you wonder where news of those two items came from? Not sure what will come after 18 at TRU, to be honest. They'll have TWD 5, but after that I'm hazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 No doubt we'll get Marvel/Aliens crossover 'mates. Spidey with a facehugger attached, alien chest explosion Iron Man, Colonial Marine Captain America, XenoDoom, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I'd forgotten (or never known) that we were getting the Hydra Elite at TRU too. Whee ha! More army for meeeeee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stegron01 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Thanks again Zach, and yeah I kinda thought the news about those 2 sets just came out of limbo I guess...clearly I don't think things through too much sometimes! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat...!? Minimates ending at TRU wave 18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I took that to mean that Zach just doesn't remember what they have planned for TRU, or what specific ones they have planned are going to TRU. If they were ending, i'd think he'd be a little more definite than "I'm hazy." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSTZach Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Yeah, I know... just scare mongering to force an announcement. Shameless. I wasn't hiding info, I just honestly don't know which line they'll have next. They're not done with Minimates, but they are not taking every line. I believe they are on board for Guardians of the Galaxy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
