The Great Mystery License

[Trekker 42]

So we got a TV license, something still running, not a streaming original and not any of these listed shows:

South Park

Golden Girls

Rick and Morty

Game of Thrones

What We Do in the Shadows

The Walking Dead

Saturday Night Live

Top Gear

Impractical Jokers

Simpsons

Grey’s Anatomy

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Bob’s Burgers

Dancing With the Stars

Family Guy

 

Aight detectives. What’ve you got?

[Padrino]

I would love What We Do in the Shadows! That show got us through the pandemic. I would also buy the heck out of a Golden Girls set!

GOT has good customizing potential. The rest I'm kind of "meh" on.

If I am being cynical, I'd say Impractical Jokers, since Joe Gatto recently announced he was leaving. 

 

[Onyx_6]

American Horror Story would be cool.

Finally getting the Arrowverse would be epic - Starting with The Flash

The NCIS shows would truly be a WTF line.

[cylonchaney]

Queen Latifah's Equalizer.

If that doesn't respark the public'c interest in minimates, I don't know what will.

[MisterPL]

I'm leaning toward Sesame Street, if only because it's not going anywhere and it would complement The Muppets.

[DSTZach]

I hope no one guesses it, because I look forward to announcing it in mid-February.

[elhonez]

I had thought Sesame Street briefly too, I think it would be very cool. But since Zach's latest post came after that guess, I think we can discount anything preceding his post.

• Masters of the Universe? That wouldn't be very WTF though, as many have been clamoring for this license to be picked up.
• If it's CSI: Your City Here, that would be both a WTF and a big fizzle for me.
• Sex in the City? Bridgerton? They'd both be WTF. The Bachelor? Dr. Pimple Popper?
• Modern Family?
• "What If?" would be literally WTF, although would that qualify as a new license?
• Could it be one of the DC shows like Superman & Lois, where the "WTF" would be "WTF aren't you doing regular DC Comics waves?"

so many options! would be nice to know if it’s animated or not. idk why but i’m just gonna guess dragonball series? that’s still going right…

either way i’m excited to see something new

[MisterPL]

I'm thinking of venerable mainstays. Doctor Who, anyone?

that was honestly my guess for live-action.

i wish i shared the enthusiasm, but i know it’s got a massive following so i could totally see this being real.

[funkguerilla]

Guys.  It's obviously a REAL HOUSEWIVES line. each set would be based on a city [NYC, ATLANTA, OC] and finally give us some glamor in the line. Trust me, that's a line of shows that ain't going ANYWHERE.

[Trekker 42]

Oh my God please be Doctor Who

[SCW]

Doctor Who would be great, but only if it includes Classic Who.

I'm guessing it's not that though.

Unfortunately Zach gave us too many clues, because eventually we can just name every TV show lol.

I'm excited at the possibilities though!

[Swarm198]

I’m going with Archer.

[Tribble_WC]

I know it's not, but I'm hoping it's wrestling. Whether WWE or AEW. It's TV and it's scripted. 

[MisterPL]

I'm no pro wrestling fan but WWE could be huge.

I wouldn't mind Archer.

[RedTiger95]

I want to lean toward adult animation, but Rick and Morty & Bob's Burgers we're checked off along with other adult animated series on other networks. 

Just have an inkling it's something animated.

A live action guess would be The Expanse.

I read that the Expanse would end with series 6 .

Yes. Sadly there are only one or two episodes left. This might be the best sci-fi TV series ever.

[spidermatt]

Im putting my two cents in on My Little Pony!! Sure it finished its run, but there are plenty of characters and friendship is magic!

[Strider]

I think it could be wrestling. It definitely would have been totally unexpected (at least by me). The wrestling toy lines have lasted a long time and are in the major retail stores so it could potentially lead to getting minimates into Walmart and back into Target. I could also see them making a ring and other props to go with the figures. I would guess AEW over WWE since they are trying to get name recognition and are probably a cheaper license than WWE. Not my thing but I could see it being successful and it could bring some neat tooling if they made chairs, tables, rings, etc.

[Heinous]

Yeah wresting figures would be great. 

Soley for fodder and cool props. 

[Strider]

It also fits Zach’s prediction of a “WTF” response. I know if it is wrestling, I never saw it coming or thought of it until his comments and clues. The more I think about it the more wrestling makes sense in minimate form.
