DSTZach Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Just leaving this here... Not sure what will be in the display case yet (opening those MM carrying cases today), but I plan to announce a few things at the panel -- I can't share that here for a while, but NYCC is taping it, so they should be airing it at some point. I'll keep everyone posted. Anyone actually attending? Quote
hellpop Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Afraid not. I haven't gone to NYCC in several years, but one thing I do miss is getting to meet and hang out with all you cool DST folks. I suppose I can tell this now, but I remember talking with you all about Transformers Minimates a decade ago, and knowing what a dream it was for some of you on Team Minimate made me so happy when you finally got to actually do it. Maybe one of these years I'll make it back. Quote
Padrino Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 I usually go every other year or so. COVID stopped all that. Even vaccinated, I avoid mass gatherings. Just not worth it. Quote

This actually makes me want every Transformers minimate 10x more than I already do. Thanks for sharing, Pop! It's a very nice thought to have. Edited October 6, 2021 by NerdyTrev Quote
DSTZach Posted October 7, 2021 Author Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) TF Series 2 is on display in the case, as is G.I. Joe Series 1 (not the FCBD box set). The panel will give some details about Joe Series 1 and 2. The Sunday morning panel will reveal a new Minimates line that's NOT in the case, not sure when the taped panel will go up on NYCC's socials. Edited October 7, 2021 by DSTZach Quote
SuperChefMate Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I will be there, but only on Friday. Quote
Smashmaster12 Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Preternia from Twitter was at the booth this morning, I asked him to take a few pics and he obliged. Series 81 was there too, and they had the boxes for the current Transformers and GI Joe stuff. Still "Coming soon" though. Quote
cylonchaney Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 Who's behind Soundwave? Is that Grimlock? Quote
nandoninny Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 these all look incredible and the price is lower too! cool! hope that's not a mistake Quote
luke314pi Posted October 7, 2021 Posted October 7, 2021 I'm SO excited to see Blaster! When I was a kid he was my 2nd favorite Autobot after Optimus. Quote

thereasonsy Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Apparently we are getting Power Rangers. Quote
THE_CRIPPLER Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Power Rangers will be cool for those that have been wanting them now for a while. Not my thing though. I think I was in my late teens when they were popular so I never really watched much of the show. No nostalgia to pull me in to get me to buy these. Was anything new shown from the Marvel line? Quote

Joe boxset is NOT series 1? Your comment makes it sound like the boxset that is a separate release from "Series 1". Can you please elaborate? Quote
Kotter Comics Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Any talk about the Walgreens situation or a new potential retailer, or just product announcements? Quote
hellpop Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Power Rangers, huh? Yeah, not something I am into, but definitely a property with a wide fan base. The fact that we are getting Minimates for three big popular properties this year is a great sign for the future. Quote

Series 1 will be a box of individually carded figures, four Joes, including recolored Snake Eyes and Scarlett, Roadblock and Duke. Series 2 will be four Cobras -- costume variations on Cobra Commander and Storm Shadow, Destro and Baroness. Quote
DSTZach Posted October 11, 2021 Author Posted October 11, 2021 I believe that is the plan. Packaging is not approved yet, but we'll see how it goes. Quote
Kostisfire Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 I can see myself buying the Cobras. Power Rangers is good news, I’m sure they’ll do well. Anything on Wave 82/Marvel? Quote
