Gillbob316 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 As per yonder article... http://www.action-figure.com/index.php?nam...e&sid=21973 DST has acquired the Planet of the Apes liscense! The article only mentions that they'll be making reproductions of the original PotA MEGO figures, no mention of minimates, but I for one am excited by the mere possibility of it. I hope to god this liscense could extend to minimates, because Planet of the Apes is one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time! I'd LOVE ape mates! Gyaaah!!! Someone slip a question into the next ask Chuck about the odds of Damn Dirty Mini-Apes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Oh, snap. I'd be all over Ape mates! Except for the Tim Burton one, that was rubbish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 You know, years ago when I suggested that Minimates could become the resurrection of Mego thanks to the common body styles and variety of licensed properties, I never suspected that DST would ACTUALLY resurrect Mego. Now I'm waiting patiently for news of PotA 'mates... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amazing.JL Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I thought it was interesting. I caught the news directly from the DST site this morning. It'll be interesting what they come up with especially if the license gets to minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I'd buy minimates of 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Templar Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 ya know... once upon a time i was able to quote all five planet of the apes films from start to finish, back to back (and did so on a bet to prove it!)... i can't even begin to count how many times i've obsessively watched those movies... i would KILL for some PotA minimates, dear lord i'd buy cases if they'd give us generic apes for "army building" and not just the main characters.

God Magnus Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Charlton Heston in Minimate form? Heck yeah! That's just an Edward G Robinson away from Soylent Green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NINTENDOwii Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Any minimates are cooler than MOST kubricks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reideen1313 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 they better be cooler then these: The Kubs have some nice accessories though. I wouldn't mind having the cage to stick a few naughty 'mates in. Same with the mini Statue of Liberty. It'd make a nice scenery piece.
