Heinous Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 With wave 77 giving us a Kraven's last hunt homage with spidey and the grave stone/dirt, I was wondering if there are more minimates that could benefit from something like that. Maybe it's a good, original way to get us some A listers without feeling like "ugh, another Captain America!" I've got nothing, but I just thought of the idea, I'm sure there's plenty.

buttheadsmate Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I'd take "Silver Surfer" #4 just for Thor & those massive helmet wings (Buscema) . I'd happily take another Surfer but (I still have to say) it would have to have the 'new' knee design that is way overdue IMVHFO . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 What new knee design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Sorry let me kill that dead before your great thread idea gets diverted ...........I (just me) thinks that Minimates deserve more than a 90 degree knee angle . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotter Comics Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 This cover to Captain America Annual 8 would give us two A-listers and possibly a cool "in action" alternative version of Cap's shield (maybe Wolverine's claws as well?).

NerdyTrev Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Fantastic Four#347 ~ New Fantastic Four 4-pack (remember those?) Tales of Suspense #58 ~ Captain America vs. Iron Man (alt. Chameleon head) Uncanny X-Men #268 ~ Black Widow, Captain America, Wolverine, and a base for them all to stand on Fantastic Four #249 ~ Gladiator and the Thing (Mechanism similar to Puck or the Fastball Special hands) Amazing Spider-Man #11 ~ Ditko rendered figure designs. New Octopus arms to recreate the position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Wave 72 wolverine with the arrows through his costume is a good example of what I'm talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late. How can a squared off .75" appendage physically accomplish that, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 It could be accomplished ,as I said, with a new design BUT as I said I seem to be the only person that isn't satisfied with a 90 degree knee angle . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Unless you also modify the feet, you don't know squat. And I'd be down with The Legion of Monsters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinous Posted February 15, 2019 Author Share Posted February 15, 2019 Yeah, but I don't know how to pinpoint what exactly I meant I guess. I guess accessories on A-listers like the Spiderman has dirt accessory and a grave stone. Not a red Vision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I would want a Cap with Doppelganger parts from Infinity War: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I'm seeing a lot of chatter, and a few actual covers... where are the pics of 'Mates in cover re-creations? Bring them on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 This may not exactly fit the theme but a Thing with a portal from Fantastic Four #51 ("This man... This monster!) would be pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) On topic, we had a contest a long while back, and here was my submission: That brings back memories.

thereasonsy Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 You guys nailed It! I did a page from Uncanny X-Men 138 and it took forever so I am really impressed with people that do covers. Well done!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFMcGill Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 I can't believe how unimaginative some people are - Silver Surfer #4? Captain America Annual #8? Uncanny X-Men #268? You literally can make any of them right now with Minimates already. There's no element that requires anything "special" like a gravestone or a dirt mound to dig out of. Other than a jumpsuit Black Widow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Well, people largely missed the point of the thread anyway so I guess it's not too surprising. Daredevil #182 would work even if it would be kind of similar to Kraven's Last Hunt Spidey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Any Daredevil cover that gives us a gargoyle is fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
