Bob Harris Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Did you all see that: www.minimatesdatabase.com (Notice the "s" inbetween minimate and database!) Minimates Database? Are you kidding me? You like Minimates, are you mental? Kubricks are so much better. Better looking, better licenses, just plain better. Kubrick collectors are smarter too. They know that when you buy a domain name, you should also buy variations on that name so you don't get some smartass confusing people who are searching for your site. See below for other reasons why Kubricks are better. Edited February 26, 2009 by Bob Harris Quote
Jad Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Well, I'm convinced. I'll be selling all my Minimates now for mere pennies, as clearly they are pathetic. Who would have thought I could be so easily swayed by someone who spells it Emporer? Quote
gledzee Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I like the idea of a kubrick site like the minimatedatabase but to insult collectors of another line insuch a way is just wrong Quote
buttheadsmate Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 I might be wrong but this has Ivan written all over it.....I hope! Quote
Docholliday666 Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 i think it was bhm. His love for kubricks knows no bounds Quote
buttheadsmate Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 i think it was bhm. His love for kubricks knows no bounds My love for kubricks is completely surpassed by my love for Minimates....there I've said what surely you all know What the fuck is this? Now I'm serious because I've just logged on to Stashmatic.com? Quote
Bob Harris Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 I might be wrong but this has Ivan written all over it.....I hope! Thought about that in the first place, but I don't think so. (Ivan?) I mean that guy has this funny Darth Vader running gag that put a smile on my face and he (or she?!?!) introduces himself as a smartass, but it's somehow not very polite to do so. Or is it? (Ivan?) Quote
buttheadsmate Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Check out the picture links(?) & the responses . If this isn't Ivan then I'm genuinely worried. If I'm genuinely worried ...then this is Ivan. Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I like the idea of a kubrick site like the minimatedatabase but to insult collectors of another line insuch a way is just wrong Yes, you should just openly insult collectors of other lines. Don't be subtle about it. What do you and your inbred looking, retarded toys think BHM? Quote
buttheadsmate Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 It's gone Midnight here in the 'Land of no money' & this is my last post today (Thank Gods )......but I have to say that there is one thing I, truly, like about you Groundhog7s........ Fuck all! Goodnight & Gods Bless. All the best GH7s Quote
luke314pi Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 (edited) Its registered through GoDaddy, so they keep the owner's information private. No luck finding anything out there. Edit: Although, it looks like Ivan's site is also hosted there.... Edited February 20, 2009 by luke314pi Quote
karamazov80 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Yes, you should just openly insult collectors of other lines. Don't be subtle about it. What do you and your inbred looking, retarded toys think BHM? I should send you some Kubricks and get you "hooked" just so you can eat those words (because, similar to Minimates, they are quite an addiction, albeit a much more expensive one). Kubrick collectors, of course, say similar things about Minimates. I don't blame the ignorance of either side, but it is always unfortunate when such behavior manifests itself . Quote
groundhog7s Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I have to admit I've got a few Mez Itz, only because of the brands they carry. I could give them up in a heartbeat (if they were worth anything). But even they have a certain proper proportion to them. Kubricks just look too disfigured to me. I'd love to like them (specifically because of the Lost ones) but it just doesn't appeal to me (no matter what minimatesdatabase says about them). Quote
jason4444 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Kind of funny but sad. Don't be messin with my minimates honkey! Quote
captain_cbecker Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Is it too late to schedule an intervention? Quote
Jatta Pake Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 This looks soooo much like Ivan. Hilarious (and great pictures!). Quote
NorthRaider Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 (edited) ... And now it's all about Mighty Muggs! EDIT: Freaky that I recognized the KAWS Kubrick (Mr. "sweater-wearing dead guy with croissants stuck to the side of his skull") Edited February 20, 2009 by NorthRaider Quote
Bob Harris Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 (edited) ... And now it's all about Mighty Muggs! OK, now this site turns out to be real fun! It's a pretty clever idea to come up with all different types of iconic addictive collector's items and compare them in a wacky way to minimates. That must be Ivan! (Tried to check how both sites name the images. Regular MMDB uses numbers (i.e. fig0412flg.jpg), the new MMsDB uses words (i.e. baroness.thumb.jpg). No clue here. Possibly proposition. Must investigate further. Hurm.) Edited February 20, 2009 by Bob Harris Quote
Kraven Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 try to click on the "minimate database?" thing at the top Quote
Danny Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 This is all kinds of awesome. Until we get a Darth Vader Minimate we are screwed! What next for our Vader-loving anti-Minimate fiend? Quote
NorthRaider Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Maybe this is viral marketing by DST. I guess they DO need a new PR guy. Quote
blacksun1520 Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I'm willing to bet Galactic Heroes, Super Hero Squad etc. will be next. After all... GH has a Vader. BS Quote
Danny Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I also wouldn't be surprised to see LEGO there too - plenty of licences and of course lots of Vader. Quote
