boyd Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Y'know, I figured that today's clue would be easy, and not force me to re-do my reasoning for the entire week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 To recap: Clue 1: 4 Heroes 1 Villain 1 Mercenary Clue #2 Pack 1: Healing factors aren't all these two have in common Pack 2: Both are mutants and members of another minority group Pack 3: Silver Age hero and ridiculously costumed army builder Clue 3: Variant: Early version of 2008 movie-appearing character Clue 4: Three star in their own comic series Four are new characters making their Minimates debut Three are new costumed versions of previously released characters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Who the hell could the 3rd "star of his/her own comic" be? I just looked through every week's release here: http://www.marvel.com/catalog/?date=2008-10-29 And apart from the pretty obvious Wolvie and Deadpool, I'm stumped. Was the "Classic Ms. Marvel" thing more than just some example for how to submit our answers? I don't see Captain Britain, Daredevil, Thor, or Black Panther fitting into any of these packs. . .Cable's not a minority (unless being from the future makes one a minority).

blacksun1520 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Well I think it's safe to say we will get Red Hulk (villan, gamma powered, own comic, new to minimates) and Skaar (new and yet to pick side, gamma powered, own comic, new to minimates) Thoughts? BS EDIT: nevermind what I said... I got my clues mixed up Edited October 30, 2008 by blacksun1520 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllStarMatt Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Currently have their own comic. Don't get too caught up in making the wave "go together". It might be a little disjointed to some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drgnrbrn316 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) So, who has their own book at the moment? Off the top of my head: Black Panther Cable Captain America Captain Britain (more or less) Daredevil Deadpool Ghost Rider Hercules Hulk Iron Man Iron Fist Moon Knight Ms. Marvel Nova Punisher She-Hulk Skaar Spider-Girl Spider-Man Thor War Machine Wolverine Edited October 30, 2008 by drgnrbrn316 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually LIKE the disjointed waves...more variety... now to wait until tomorrow for the big reveal. So I guess no Pictures, just line up?

luke314pi Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 A definition of "minority" is "A group having a distinctive presence within a society." I think that being "from the future" could count as a minority group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess no Pictures, just line up? We aren't ready to release final pictures just yet, but I did find comic images with all the right costumes for each one. So you'll at least know which outfits, etc they'll be in. A definition of "minority" is "A group having a distinctive presence within a society." I think that being "from the future" could count as a minority group. Once you see who the "minorities" are this will make sense.

blacksun1520 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 OK, this is what I think... but I'm probably mostly wrong Marvel Minimates Series 26 Clue 1: 4 Heroes – Wolverine, Psylocke, Storm, Captain Marvel 1 Villain – AIM agent 1 Mercenary - Deadpool Clue 2: Pack 1: Healing factors aren't all these two have in common – Deadpool, Wolverine Pack 2: Both are mutants and members of another minority group – Psylocke, Storm Pack 3: Silver Age hero and ridiculously costumed army builder – Captain Marvel, AIM agent Clue 3: Variant: Early version of 2008 movie-appearing character – Sgt. Nick Fury Clue 4: Three star in their own comic series – Deadpool, Wolverine, Nick Fury? (Squadron Supreme) Four are new characters making their Minimates debut – Deadpool, Psylocke, Captain Marvel, AIM agent Three are new costumed versions of previously released characters – Wolverine, Storm, Nick Fury BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbpanizzi Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 The only LOCKS I have from the list are Wolverine and Deadpool... I think you are half right. I think the mercenary is the army builder. why do I think this. Well lets just say it is better to be pleasantly surprised rather than immensely disappointed.
