After seeing ANOTHER 80's property (Knight Rider) get 'mated, I started to think about other 80's properties that need 'mates: (mainly ones with vehicles)

The A-Team! Give us a Van and a 4-pack and I'm good! (Then I'd buy two to modify one van for the Punisher!)

Magnum P.I. - never was a huge fan, but his car would be cool, and a box-set with Magnum, Higgins and Magnum's two buddies would sell well.

Tales of the Gold Monkey - show was cheezy but we could make some good Indiana Jones customs from them. Heck, it'd be like getting a MAX version of Indiana Jones. And the plane would make a great vehicle!

Gremlins! Don't worry about the humans at all, just give us Gizmo and lots of gremlins! For the vehicle asst - Gizmo's Barbie car (I guess) and Gremlin with a bulldozer!

Airwolf! Cool vehicle, and I'd totally buy a Ernest Borgnine minimate!

And going beyond the 80's, I'm not a Munster's fan, but I'd buy minimates of them and the car. Although, I have a feeling we'll see them eventually with parts re-used from the Universal Monsters line.

(I didn't mention Goonies, Star Wars, Indy, etc, etc because they've been brought up before and DST has mentioned they keep trying for Indy, SW, etc)

I think Power Rangers would be an excellent liscense for DST. They're colorful and feature hundreds of different characters to make. If done correctly, they could be as popular as Marvel IMO.

I'd love to see Twin Peaks. Plenty of cool characters. Plus they could even have bunkhouse boys box set. This would also lead to more normal accessories (clothes, suits, socks, pie Etc.)

Box Set 2

Commander Shepard in Blood Dragon armor, Collector, Garrus, Jack.

Box Set 3

Commander Shepard in Cerebus armor, Legion, Wrex, Tali.

I've been hoping that Bioware's falling out with DC Direct might give DST a chance at figures and minimates. I don't expect it to happen, but it sure would be great.

me too. those guys at Bioware were PISSED about how their product was being handled.

I've often thought of this. And how awesome it would be to have armor packs. So you could pick up a pack with a Nelf Warrior and Troll Hunter and be able to make them a druid and a mage through armor packs.

I just saw Sucker Punch and think the girls would make swell minimates:

Babydoll

Sweetpea

Rocket

Amber

Blondie

Can't have the girls without Madame Gorski, Blue, and The Old Wise Man!! I'd kill for a Sweet Pea minimate though; great film. :thumbsup:

I know it's already Marvel but I'd like to see Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes Minimates. I really like Wasp's costume. And dat hair. Also they could give us Kang. Just sayin'.

Possible...

Mega Man

Stretch...

Starcraft (not really a big fan of the series, but be cool to 100 of marines on one side and 100 of zerglings on the other)

Never going to happen...

Saint Seiya

I found myself watching all the Robocop movies tonight (because, you know, it's Wednesday) and couldn't stop thinking about how awesome he'd look minimated.

Imagine, if you will, The Robocop license acting like the Back to the Future license, with a four pack for each movie with a scattered two pack here and there. Here's how I would want it to break down:

Robocop 1

- RoboCop (duh)

- Boddicker

- Lewis

- Dick Jones

Robocop 2

- Serve and protect Robocop (more opally than gunmetal grey)

- Cain (as Robocop 2)

- Cain (as a thug)

- The Old Man

Robocop 3

- Robo with a jetpack

- The Yakuza Ninja Cyborg (whatever his name was)

- One of the resistance

- an OCP Exec. Probably Johnson

Toss in some two packs of random henchmen and some battle damaged Robos, you got a series I'd totally gush over.
