TMNT Minimates - it's official!

[Valo487]

The announcement that DST would be at C2E2 mentioned these by name, is there any chance we'll get to see them there?

[The Vox]

Really hoped to see pictures by this months end.... There are some here that have seen them, right? What kind of detail are we talking? Are the heads sculpted or minimate standard?

[DSTZach]

We may get a glimpse of them at the C2E2 panel.

Turtles will be in the display case by Saturday. Shedder is there now.

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be filming
the DST Minimates panel this Saturday at C2E2. I then plan on having it up on the boards, ready to watch either
late Saturday night or Sunday evening. When I do have the video ready to go, I
will make a new thread in the Crisis of Infinite Minimates section of the
board. The thread will be titled “C2E2 DST Minimates Panel Video.”

This may be the most anticipated movie of the season for me.

Thanks, Delta!

[Valo487]

These look so good, can't wait to see the rest!!

[Glantern]

Those foot ninjas look so awesome! I'm gonna have to get sooo many of those!

[The Vox]

Shredder, silver Krang, Blue/Clear Krang, Foot Ninja, 4-Armed Robot Foot Ninja.. Krang on the floor!! A lot to be proud of so far.

[DSTZach]

Turtles should be at the show tomorrow.

[Bob Harris]

Thanks Delta!
So, now I'm hoping for a lot of MMMV cameos in that video!

[karamazov80]

[MisterMiracle]

They're so cute!

[Mattallica]

Not Horrible(ok the heads are) but compared to shredder and the foot ninjas these are a bit weak.

[Bob Harris]

I'm not sure about these. Need to see some more pics. I love all the other characters, though.

Agreed. I feel that these should have had fully sculpted heads.

or at least some kind of "snout" as part of the mask maybe!?

[Santos L Halper]

As much as I love the plain basic minimate with as little sculpting as possible; I think these would have benefited greatly from sculpted heads, something similar to what they have done with battle beast. I see the basic cylindrical head as the default human head and think that animals/creatures should have a different head than that of human characters.

DTS have changed the heads, they were fully sculpted and much better then now.

Zach, can you say why DST did that?
