Was this box frankensteined together? Is inflation sucking the life out of the hobby? Or are you over the moon for this What If? set? And should I wrap this up quickly?

You are going to be universally reviled for making such a monstrous post.

I'm going to resurrect this zombie thread.

If you were to assemble your own "make-up" 6-pack of MCU/D+ characters from the past few years, who would you include?

Wanda(final version), Moon Knight(parts to make both) obviously takes away accessories/ weapons, Sylvie, Ms. Marvel, Shang Chi, America Chavez. 

[Navaan]

With America and Kate coming to the future wave, taking them out (yes, I know, comic, but they are really close).

I would state Moon Knight, Khonsu Miss Marvel (we only have a cartoon one, so far), Sersi, Shang Chi and Gorr.

[Swarm198]

• Endgame Thor
• Mr. Knight
• WandaVIsion finale (or MoM) Scarlet Witch
• He Who Remains
• Sylvie
• Maya/Echo

I also think a proper MoM zombie Strange Minimate with a soul cloak could be really cool, although I think figures like that are outside of DST's tooling budget these days.

[elhonez]

These are some solid choices!

Maybe not for the initial six, but I'd also like a Scarlet Scarab.

Ms. Marvel, Shang-Chi, Captain Marvel (from her appearance at the end of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Jane Foster Thor, MoM Doctor Strange, and NWH last scene suit Spider-Man.

I think to adequately do this you’d have to have two box sets: Heroes and Villains

Heroes: Moon Knight, Ms Marvel, Shang Chi, NWH Finale Spider-Man, Kate Bishop, Mighty Thor

Villains: Gorr, Wenwu, Scarlet Witch, Green Goblin (with parts for both classic and finale Goblin), Sylvie, Doctor Octopus.

I know I’ve got two Spider-Man villains but honestly the only other villains I could think of who really need a slot were Agatha and Abomination and I honestly felt like it was more important to get a Doc Ock than either of those. Not only for this movie’s sake but for the sake of the Rami films. 

[TheMinimateKing30]

I'm currently working on a custom figure of the NWH final swing suit Spider-Man, but I would like to see Diamond take a crack at it.

Wouldn't even be hard, either. They could easily just retool the printing designs of the Wave 73 Spider-Man but modify them to have a brighter/shiner blue and different chest and back emblems.

as more promos come out for mcu namor, i’m really hoping for a release with his green trunks and also the ceremonial headdress

[Heinous]

That headdress would almost be another figure in amount of plastic used

it’s big! could be cool as a a helmet+cape that fits into a larger flight base

[nandoninny]

well, the gaurdians of the galaxy trailer makes me really want minimates of those new uniforms........

[TM2 Dinobot]

Saw this at Burlington today. Kind of a weird, in the wild find, and not nearly marked down as other products at discount stores tend to be. It was the only one there. Maybe when Christmas is done they'll put it on clearance.

[MisterPL]

The latest AskDST indicates they have no intention of going "backwards" with MCU Minimates. 🙄

Zach H.: Will we be seeing more mcu minimates for the movies that just recently came out

DSTChuck: I am sorry, there are no plans at this time to go backwards with the Minimates for MCU.

Personally, I'd have been content if they'd have picked up where they left off. So much has been skipped...

[nandoninny]

they can skip eternals.

but yeah, hopefully a lot of these characters show up again and we get some of the ones we've missed out on lately.

but, to be fair, they've said the whole "not going backwards" thing before and we got the avengers box set, the deadpool, and the logan sets

Yeah, I forgot this site has weird image qualities. 

[nandoninny]

So, ant-man trailer has some interesting stuff.   Probably won’t get any minimates out of it but i’m curious how they’d handle the villain who isn’t kang (trying not to spoil anything)

Thats not a terrible price.  Good to see you Dinobot.  Its been a while.

[Trekker 42]

Wait Burlington like the Coat Factory? Or is this something else?

[DSTZach]

They're not just a Coat Factory anymore!

[thereasonsy]

Bummed we didn’t get GOTG v 3 mates. Feels like the end of an era.
