I'll be there.........................................in spirit of course, along with spirit eagle, like two dead jedi's watching over your shoulders, with light beers, instead of lightsabers. Hey Tim, you could get a mini nervous mate to pose with a Leia this year....and maybe my buddy Foxhole Froud.

I'll see what I can do.. .of course you should have sent him to me for real authenticity ;)

Nervous, I really thought you were coming this year. Dang! It just won't be the same with you and the Eagle.

I never disappeared, I simply meshed into my surroundings like a ninja warrior. I was always there, releasing deadly nerve agents into the crowds. Then I would reappear like nothing was happening. :ninja:

I wish I was there... lucky bastards. Lets hope those givaway mates find there way into the pockets of us less fortunate collectors (read, east coasters :P ) Well, have fun everyone that can make it, and take lots of pics!

BS

what he said

Yeah, I'm gonna jump on this train as well. I hope you lucky convention-goers will be kind enough to post some updates during the convention (perhaps some from the Marvel booth? :biggrin: ). Enjoy SDCC!

Brief dispatches from the show today...

Rumors are SCIFI Channel will have a minimate giveaway on Sat.

Digger is alive and well! - I saw him at a panel late in the day & got to chat very briefly!!

Rumors part II, I was told that there would be a big announcement at the minimate panel on Sat...

Rumors part III, as we know there are 4 different colors of translucent minimate being given away this week, a lil bird tells me they will be green (today), red blue and orange.

My current "bumping into Minimate members" count at the show is currently at: 6

Stay tuned folks I'll share what info I can as get a chance.

P.S. Don't forget 7pm tomorrow Dublin Square ( on 4th off Market) for the semi-official meetup.

Plus, Mattel released pics of toys from the Brave and the Bold cartoon that look pretty great, and a bunch of new JLU figures (Ultraman! Six packs with almost completely new villains!). With these, the GI Joes, Minimates, and Kubricks coming out next year, it truly is a terrible time not to have lots of money.

They're handing out the free minimates at the DST booth, on the exhibition floor. It's not far from the DC booth, if I remember right. But since they do the hand out at noon, you might have missed today's 'mate!

FYI, many of Hasbro's exclusives are available from Hasbrotoyshop.com right now, including the Iron Man Muggs figure, and the Nemesis Prime.

Does anyone have pictures from the minimate panel?

Probably not, there really wasn't much to photgraph, just Matt, Chuck, Eddie Wires & Digger sitting talking.

If you mean did anyone get pictures of the art shown then No, the artwork was subject to aproval so no photo's were allowed.
