Energy-Man Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Peter Parker is now my all time favorite civilian MM ever!!!!! i luv the shirt and costume. great hair too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Donster Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Wow, this line is definately shaping up to be something. Thanks for the hookup and pics gang I can see I might have to cut off some lines of action figures to afford all of the Minimates coming out this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyc Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Whoah boy, in hindsight blockbuster movie means all part reuse style cost restraint gone, with full web patterns to transformation Venom. Evil Parker just sings but yeah, Transformation Venom. I wonder how much of that will transfer over to Transformation Spidey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIrish780 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Holy freakin' Hannah!! Transformation Venom has to be one of the dang coolest things I've ever seen in Minimate form! I may just have to track that one down... oy, varient chasing is something I don't really like... but I was going to have to make an exception already just because of Mary Jane. Now I'm getting ready to break the proverbial bank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpheon Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Unfortunately, these just keep getting better and better. Ghost Rider looks like maggot infested bird poop on a flat rock in Death Valley now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Anybody wanna guess what time Wizarduniverse.com will post the final Spidey 3 minimates? They don't seem to have it up this early in the morning unlike RTM and MMMV (God bless you guys). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgnrbrn316 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Don't they know that the best part of waking up is Minimates in our cups? Of course, depending on where the Wizard offices are, they may still be asleep for all I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacksun1520 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 WOW WOW WOW... transformation Spiderman and Sandman have to be 2 of the best minimates to date, especially sandman, it's friggin sick. But hey, where's BD Spiderman??? BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Here is the link. http://www.wizarduniverse.com/magazine/toyfare/003971018.cfm They look good, I'm just not sure about Sandman, he doesn't look like a minimate anymore. The affect is cool, I want to wait for the production version to make a final judgement. The molded accessories look damn good. Venom prototype looks good, I'm sure the production version will look great! My fav of this batch is the Transformation Spider-Man. edited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vigilante Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Wow, these look awesome! I'm definately getting transformaation SM and venom, but im not too sure about sandman. Not posable enough. Hopefully theyll make an entirely sand sandman with a normal mate body, and this is it with all the attachments that come with it (hopefully) Patriot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny B Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I completely agree with JL on this... Sandman looks AMAZING, but doesnt really resemble a minimate anymore. But DANG if those new scuplts don't look sweet! Venom is looking pretty good, but that transformation Spiderman is definitely a keeper. I love the expression on his face...

drgnrbrn316 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 But hey, where's BD Spiderman??? You forget we get the full reveal tomorrow on DST's site, so any that missed the boat the rest of this week will pop up then, I'm sure. The transformation figures look awesome and are great uses of new molds, even though AA/DST will be ill-pressed to find uses for them again. I agree that as cool as Sandman looks, he has taken several steps outside of what makes him a minimate. I guess some articulation in the arms had to be sacrificed to allowe him to heft those huge hands. I can't help but wonder if that sand pile is subbing for his legs, or if he'll come packaged with legs as well. Of course, worst case scenario, I can sub parts from either the comic Sandman releases, or just use Spidey 3's Flint Marko figure to make him walk. All in all, I'm willing to accept the losses in exchange for the greater good, which is the greater figure. Venom looks superb and is a great movie variation of the comic figure. Overall, this week has really sold the waves to me, as I was on the fence about ordering them before now. With two waves of figures based on a movie that really only features three spectacular characters plus another spider variant, it was hard for me to look at this line much differently than the Ghost Rider wave, which was heavy with civilians, but the look and feel of these characters has me anxious to get a case of each. I think the only bittersweet part of these releases is that we have no "classic" Green Goblin and Doctor Octopus to join the ranks. Oh well, there's always the long shot chance that the movie franchise gets pushed to a Sinister Six plot and they resurrect the villains of movies past.

luke314pi Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Before this week, I was also hesitant about these waves. But now I am pre-ordering a full set (possibly a case) of each. They all look amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Well, I'm sold - I'll be picking these up when they come out. Almost just because of today's figures and that sweet, sweet sandy fist... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I love Transformation Spidey, but that Venom looks like someoe's scribbled on a black blank. Horrible. Sandman is great though, I think he looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samwise Gamgee Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Wow, I can't believe how good these waves are! Both transformation figures make me laugh what with the pain they are expressing. They definitely win the most emotive 'mates award, lol. I am curious, though, how come Sandman's hair is long when he's Flint but short as Sandman? All in all, I am completely floored with all of the new parts in these waves. Thank you AA/DST! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neolego Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 A_W_E_S_O_M_E_!_!_!_!_!_!_! All I can say is, let's take another poll and see who picks the lame Avenger wave now . Bring on Spider-Man 3, it can't come soon enough for me. neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 They look nice, but these protos need some MASSIVE work. It'll all be fixed though, I'm sure. And Danny, ditto on Venom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aapje Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 well my favorites are tranformation venom and sandy sandman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdubya Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 These just get better each day...awesome! I understand the concerns with Sandman, but personally think he is fantastic and couldn't really imagine him any other way (unless the arms could be made "bendy" for better posing). I LOVE the transformation Spidey, but I really hope that the entire chest piece is "flesh-tone" underneath the "Venom-bits" and not striped with black like previous other MMs with "add-ons" (for custom fodder). I'm kicking myself for not jumping at the opportunity to pre-order full sets (or cases!) of these, as I initially had little interest in "Movie Mates" until I saw these. Now, I MUST have them all (especially the variants)! Thank-You (and Damn-You!) DST/AA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
