DSTZach Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 It's not Power Rangers. The animated series is all animal characters. The box set is all human characters. The Valiant 2-pack contains next year's most frightful Minimate. Quote

Mnemosis Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I think he means voting-wise for the awards All human semi-complimentary box set... From Dusk til Dawn? Quote

Drake Mallard/Eggman of F.O.W.L. If we have to choose between those to animated licenses, I choose Mlp. Think about the awesome monsters!Tirek Discord! The list goes on and on. I was just wondering, Mlp is a Hasbro license, how did Dst get the rights to make banks or possibly Minimates? Quote

fwoosheyman Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 MLP makes sense for the 2pack series. DST can sell them through previews and mass market stores. Not something I'm interested in but I'm sure they'll sell well. Still no idea on the 4 pack. Semi-complimentary and all humans. Could be lots of things. Quote
MisterMiracle Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) I'd be ok with The Tick. That's another license that I'd like to see in Minimates form. Not sure how I'd feel about My Little Pony. I definitely wouldn't buy them but it would probably bring some new fans on board which would in turn lead to Care Bears Minimates and Cabbage Patch Doll Minimates and then of course Barbie Minimates. This is getting weird. Edited January 3, 2015 by MisterMiracle Quote
youbastards Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Zach said both the boxset and cartoon packs are "new licenses, never shown or hinted at", and we've known about the MLP banks for a while. Quote
winkerbean Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Planet of the Apes is pretty popular, the new films have made some serious cash, I'd love some classic stuff Quote
MisterPL Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 DST has been in bed a lot with Fox lately. Alien and Predator Minimates could lead to Apes product. Quote

Could fit right in with my new cthulhu mates. Quote
hellpop Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Zach said both the boxset and cartoon packs are "new licenses, never shown or hinted at", and we've known about the MLP banks for a while. But Minimates haven't been hinted at. I outlined why MLP seems logical above, and as Zach hasn't commented on that, I feel pretty comfortable with that guess. No matter what we may think of it, MLP would be a big get, right there with the Turtles. They have a big, shall we say diverse fan base, which has shown a big willingness to buy MLP product. But this would also be a great opening into two potential areas: girls' toys and Hasbro properties. In Chicago, I talked to Chuck about breaking into the girl market for awhile, and he told me (and I'll delete this if it ruffles any feathers) that DST was hamstrung by the perception that they knew boys' toys but not girls. If the new line is MLP, and it's a success, that could open up a whole new market for Minimates, ones the alpha-male he-men around here might scoff at, but that those of us with daughters at home will be happy about. But you all should hope it's MLP, because that could open up a new relationship with Hasbro, leading to other Hasbro-owned properties making the jump to Minimates, specifically GI Joe and Transformers.

murderofcrows Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Animal characters. Silver hawks or Battle of the Planets. All characters are bird based. Quote
Minimate-Maniac Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Maybe one of the new licenses is the Tick? Quote
MisterPL Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I have a tough time picturing Hasbro licensing My Little Pony to another toy company to make block figures with the same play pattern as their own in-house Mashers. Quote
sinnsyk Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 My daughter and son would both absolutely love My Little Pony minimates. I'd be buying a case for sure. Quote
