W00t! That Jackal is PERFECT. Loving Kaine and the Goblin as well.

I'm up for any of the villains mentioned whether they've been made in a different format ( animated, comic etc.etc. ) or not.

However I'm not sure whether I'll embrace too many, new ,slightly different comic versions of existing Minimate animated versions. The animated Jackal for example is IMHO .....unfortunate...& needs a completely different version . Interestingly enough the animated Jackal wore shorts whilst the comic version sports a pair of green Speedos ....

They look amazing! spectacular! ultimate! web of!

I anticipate Lady Ock being the sleeper hit. She looks gorgeous.

Kaine and Jackal look dope! 
Kanie's design never struck me as especially practical looking... more a case of riding the wave of flowly caped, dark/edgy characters that Spawn epitomised in the 90s.... but in pink! I think they've captured the essence of his windswept hair and cape and 90sness perfectly.

damn, would love to see close ups of some of these.  they look fun!!

I agree I just hate windswept anything without a neutral option 😆

That’s a gorgeous box set. I’ve always loved the Kaine look, probably due to nostalgia. These all look spectacular (pun intended) and I can’t wait to add them to my collection. 

[DSTZach]

Glad everyone likes them! They were not supposed to go up for pre-order today, so the listings may go away, but next Friday for sure. 

[Navaan]

These are perfect!!

HOLY SHIT

DIAMOND SELECT, YOU BRILLIANT, CRAZY-ASS SONS OF BITCHES

YOU HAVE ANSWERED MY PRAYERS

A NEW GREEN GOBLIN

HALLELUJAH

This set is everything I want from minimates.  Fun, untapped characters, excellent toyetic designs, and a great balance of hero and villain.  Here's hoping this becomes the template moving forward.

Agreed! Love the dynamic, action oriented accessories. Great assortment of characters. I already about about 5 or 6 different customs in mind. Amazing set!

@DSTZach please say we get some "thwip" hands with this set. "Thwip" hands need to come standard with all Spiders from now on.

[Chooch]

After Series 85 not being my cup of tea, this one really delivers on new characters.

[DSTZach]

Not sure about thwip hands. I'll check.

Glad everyone likes it. I think most sets will be like this. 84 was close. 87 is pretty close. The Spider-Verse set is not, but it will hopefully bring in some new collectors. 88 is a bit of a Greatest Hits, but I think it will be well received. 

[Trekker 42]

Anyone else getting an unmasked head?

Warren or Kaine in particular. 

[THE_CRIPPLER]

This set is amazing. I think the previous Spidey set is also. The only negative thing about that one is that it is a lot of re-hashes. Overall though those look great. Zach, will the next set of "greatest hits" be a mix of Marvel characters or a greatest hits of a certain comic like Avengers or X-Men?

[TheMinimateKing30]

Now I can actually see some merit behind 85 and 86 being back-to-back Spider-Man releases on account of the similar aesthetics for the classic Spider-Man design and the fact that we're getting Scarlet Spider and Reilly Spider-Man one after the other.

I gotta hand it to you guys, this is pretty fucking cool. Hats off. Will be P.O.ing as soon as it goes live.

[AFMcGill]

The blue in Kaine's design is meant to run throughout his costume... and he's got spikes and stuff up his arms!

I also don't know where Phil's colour scheme is coming from... blue and dark green??

Spider-Man seems on the darker side too. Even when he was Spider-Carnage, he wasn't really black instead of blue.

I didn't follow Spider-Man during these costumes. I love how insanely 90's these designs are! I can't wait to see that Goblin 'mate up close.

On God. While the pre-posed design elements irk me to a degree (Elektra Daredevil all over again where it can only be posed in a certain way), it looks fantastic overall. And the new glider? Fucking BEAUTIFUL.

Same with the tentacles on Carolyn Trainer. Those are just god-tier. I hope to see these new parts reused more for future Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus Minimates because they look nothing short of astounding to me.

A certain comic, but a mix of teams.
