Shanester Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Is that Starbuk?! She looks horrible. I liked the original proto better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reideen1313 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Here's the pics: 24: Series 1, a line based on season 1 of the Fox TV show (out this summer, from Diamond Select Toys/Art Asylum). From left: Andre Drazen, Kim Bauer, Jack Bauer, David Palmer, and Nina Myers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I like them for the custom fodder they represent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 What's 24? Is that DST's line of "normal" people? I kinda wish we'd gotten a business man instead of the hobo lookin dude in front. Also, Ghost Rider is kinda disappointing because of so few, oh I don't know, SUPERHEROS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Ghost Rider is kinda disappointing because of so few, oh I don't know, SUPERHEROS! LOL he does look like a hobo. Anyway the BSG wave is looking pretty nice. Good job DST, I will be hoping to see some Pictures from toy fair soon! ...:::Halo11701:::... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Ghost Rider is kinda disappointing because of so few, oh I don't know, SUPERHEROS! 24 is the TV show. The 'hobo lookin dude in front' is Kiefer Sutherland's character, Jack Bauer.

infallible Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Oooooh, I'm hyped! I rather like that Starbuck, but the uniform looks a bit bulky. It looks like they're making the tops removable, probably to hide those black and gray underclothes. I'd probably prefer just painted on uniforms, but I'm not going to complain. (I do rather like how panic-stricken Balter seems, just by putting his hands up.) 24 'Mates look great! Funny enough, I think Jack looks the worst of them all. I'm pretty sorry that Terri isn't pictured, since she wouldn't fit into any other season of the show. I wonder if there will be a variant... Maybe that's where Terri can come into things. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatwave316 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I saw the Robosapien, but he's just a bit too expensive. I do have a roboreptile, and it is quite fun to see my puppy's reaction when it starts thrashing its tail. Plus, I need to save my money for new minimates. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that 1 of the new lines might be Buffy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Great stuff, can't wait to see the close-ups and other picks. Great for the new parts.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 To be honest, like Shane said, all i see from the 24 & BSG mates is custom fodder. I'd much rather have them make more Marvel and DC mates or even a bunch of Blanks instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxcarnage Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Not a huge fan of 24 (i have never say and episode) but those mates look cool! all the others look great also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 They all look great, but I'm leaning towards civilian peons and custom fodder as far as any of those products are concerned. I don't hate any of them, as a lot of time went into them and it shows that DST is really trying now as opposed to the wave after wave of part reuse we've seen in the past. It's just that I won't be killing myself hunting down a bunch of civilians just to make sure I have every character from a show I don't watch. I think what'll make these lines harder to swallow in the long run is that they're based on actual people. That being said, its very hard to capture the look of Nicolas Cage over the look of Ghost Rider in two inch block figure form, which is why the flashy costumes of super heroes and villains just comes off better than the civilian look. I'll probably still get one of each of them, but I don't see them being the prize of my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Personally, I look at the 24 Minimates and see custom fodder. But I showed them to a co-worker who's a big fan of 24, and he loves them a lot. Different strokes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Loving Starbuck's accessories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIrish780 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hey, that hair piece on Andre Drazen... anyone else thinking Norman Osborne? Matt, Chuck, if either of you are listening, here's a part re-use for you guys that makes excellent sense!! Make it so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 A Nina Myers minimate & A Dennis Hopper minimate how cool is that I love both these shows and it's great to see the 24 minimates at last, I 'll be buying these by the case because they're both cool figures and also great custom potential They all look pretty cool, not sure I like the idea of a Starbuck re-use in what will be the 2nd or 3rd wave of BSG but she has nice accessories and it was to be expected I guess. Bring on more pix as toyfair rolls on! T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jatta Pake Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I've been wanting "normal" people Minimates for so long! These are AWESOME, in my opinion. And Starbuck comes with not only a cigar but a big eagle crested beer stein. How f'n cool is that?!?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightViper Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 So does Baltar have red eyes there? Hmmm. Unlike the first wave, I may be getting all of wave 2 of Galactica. I'm not too thrilled about Starbuck and Adama, but Adama is one of those characters that you have to get a figure of and I like this Starbuck a little better than the wave 1 figure. Plus, the Ace/Top Gun stein. Awesome. 24 Minimates are..ok. I dislike the show immensely, so even though these could be good "normal people" Minimates, I probably won't be buying.

Cobra Racer Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 How cool. We get Eva Mendes with the GR figures, and then Elisha Cuthbert with the 24 figures. I will definitely be picking those two up, and some of the others from the sets look like good random people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antacost Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 How f'n cool is that?!?!?! It's okay. You can say "Frakkin" here... :biggrin: Actually, since the uniform tops on these are seperate pieces, I'm gonna be royally pissed if the undershirts aren't printed on the torsos... That's how we see the characters most of the time anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Man, there's gonna be one hell of a lot of MMs this year. 24 looks amazing and BSG wave 2 looks so-so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
