buttheadsmate Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I was too lazy to vote so I have no right to comment at all but thanks Cappy for doing the donkey-work & presenting the awards in such an entertaining manner ,brilliantly done. . No real surprises at all IMO......but just for a second there I thought G.I.Raffe had finally got his deserved recognition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 (edited) Great job Cappy! Man... did Dress Uniform McCoy ever hold a grudge against Transformation Venom. And for what.... Oh ya. I guess that kind of thing lingers in one's mind. Anyway, "HUZZAH!" to all the winners. Edited March 7, 2009 by MINI_MYTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 What suprised me even more than the results of Best Custom (Congrats Bob! ) and the top 5 categories combined is the abundance of tie results. I must be a bad influence (I had a feeling the abundance of ties in Sexiest were intentional... more Minimate smexiness to go around, everyone in the Multiverse is happy ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappy Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 (though that isn't Susan in your picture ) D'oh! I was stumped when I pulled them out for photos, but now I realize she's missing Madonna's mole. *sigh* Some day I might update the picture. As for the sexiest category, those aren't all ties. I took the top three females and the top three males and paired them up. It seemed fitting, and gave the non-Marvel 'Mates a chance to shine.

NorthRaider Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Oh, well that Sexiest thing definitely makes sense now... Six and Tony are definitely a smashing couple, but Marlena and Buffalo Bill are just too weird for words... Pretty funny watching the Trek mates ganging up on Transformation Venom. Same with "Staying Alive" Spock and just seeing that Grodd skull on a podium Thanks again Cappy for putting all this together! It was really fun AND enlightening seeing last year's cream of the Minimate crop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) 1st place: Bob Harris's Dr Manhattan God help us all! Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I'm sorry. This moment is so much bigger than me. I want to thank my mom who's given me the strength to fight every single day, to be who I want to be... Sorry, just kidding! Seriously, thank you very much, I really do appreciate that A LOT! And thank you VERY much Cappy for the whole poll and that superb and entertaining presentation of the results. (Frak the Academy Awards!) And I totally ♥ these white blanks presenting the best accesories. Awesome picture, Cappy! Edited March 9, 2009 by Bob Harris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 And I totally ♥ these white blanks presenting the best accesories. Awesome picture, Cappy! I agree. In fact, everything about the presentation of the awards is inspired. Great stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 And I totally ¢¾ these white blanks presenting the best accesories. Awesome picture, Cappy! I thought the white blanks were a really cool idea too, but now they make me miss JP1000 and Friends even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndieMate Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 This was really good! But I have one question: what was wrong with Taskmaster's gear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 This was really good! But I have one question: what was wrong with Taskmaster's gear? I was wondering the same thing. I loved having that assload of weapons. Made him more formidable looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 This was really good! But I have one question: what was wrong with Taskmaster's gear? Yeah . . . i was kind of stoked with how many extras he got!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Probably it was QC issues or something. Or the fact that they were mostly part reuses. Or maybe it was that dreaded shield cuff (but then US Agent has that shield problem too) Honestly, I am stumped myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) I got around the problem with the shield cuff on wave 5/Target Cap(the one that comes with the tight cuff and extra hand) by taking his arm apart, sliding the cuff on, and reattaching the arm.

Cappy Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yeah, what NorthRaider said. I remember everyone being stoked about the array of weapons Taskmaster came with, but the comments that came with the votes complained of the QC. I know my shield is rather egg-shaped, the arrow is C-shaped and the bowstring is warped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Great work Cappy. That's a hell of a lot of effort you put in there. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraven Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 The best minimate of 2008 is in no way that iron man or any other for that matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 The best minimate of 2008 is in no way that iron man or any other for that matter In your opinion. It's what the people who posted a vote in this thread thought. Maybe you should have voted to have a say in this at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I don't know about the wisdom of questioning Kraven. He is crazy, after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 This was really good! But I have one question: what was wrong with Taskmaster's gear? Yes! I just scrolled down to to bottom of the page to ask that question. Okay, it's all reused from others. But that's the point of Taskmaster!!!!

NorthRaider Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Here's a new mystery to solve: 3rd place for Best Minimate. I mean, am I the only one freaked out that it matched my own vote almost too perfectly? It's weird enough that the odds of a tie in the category should've been astronomical, but why did it have to be these guys specifically?! I'm getting freaked out.
