DSTZach Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Regardless of who said announcement is about, the Marvel.com announcement will be made on Wednesday. The thread in which this answer is posted should not in any way be an indicator of anything. Sorry for the delay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Since he's a time traveller, I'm still predicting that Kang will be announced as a Minimate last Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 He was announced next Wednesday..... I heard that tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thanks for letting us know when to look, Zach. Awfully nice of you (as was last weeks picture that you still can't say who it is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Like I said, Kang's already had three minimates, but their designs displeased him so he retroactively removed them from history. Thanks for the information about the announcement that may or may not have anything to do with what we are discussing here. Speaking of which, Zach, will this be a multi-figure announcement this Wed. or just the silhouetted figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Hey, Zach just posted another mysterious silhouette photo for tomorrow's big reveal. And it's not Kang: Gotta be Squirrel Girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 If this becomes an "Avengers #23" boxed set, I'm gonna go ape. I doubt it, but still... ! Turning up the brightness doesn't seem to help. It's like there's a black rectangle covering the face and chest details. Still, I can see an upper arm braclet and what looks to be a compound bow rather than the regular one.

Fujis Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Cool! Looks like a flexible skirt-piece as well. And where did he post it? I looked at the DST and AA site and DST's FB page... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geohound Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Ok, this is growing ever more relevant to my interests. Tomorrow should be good news time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be surprised to see a green costume Quicksilver and Cap tomorrow as well. Green costume Quicksilver is an absolute YES... and while I understand the need to include another Cap (*sigh*), I really hope it'd be an updated Scarlet Witch instead. Ah well... I HAVE KANG COMING.

The Geohound Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) Guys! Guys! General Pictures Thread! Zach just said this should be out within a few weeks. Not confirmed it, just he thought it was. Sorry. Out of breath. Ran here as fast as I could. (And by "just" i mean almost 20 minutes ago. Lay off, I hate running) Edited April 24, 2012 by The Geohound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobsterman Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Yep, looks like this image might have been photoshop sleuthing-proofed... it's a consistent color value across the entire front area of his torso and face, which is extremely unlikely to occur in an unretouched photo. I wonder if it will be the neo-modern costume or a redo of the classic one? Compound bow would seem to suggest the former, but I know lots of people would like them to take another swing at the classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 If this becomes an "Avengers #23" boxed set, I'm gonna go ape. I doubt it, but still... ! I'd make sure my monkey suit was clean and ready to go there, MM. Just a hunch. I would not be surprised to see a green costume Quicksilver and Cap tomorrow as well. If the set is Av v1#23, then green Pietro is a given... a nice given, but still. The test will be in slot #4. Does DST think Hawkeye, and the much anticipated Kang, are strong enough to carry the set even if it's specialty retail, or will they need a "proven A-lister" like Captain America to help move it off the shelves? And does Marvel making the annoucment mean have baring on where it will be sold? Guess we'll all find out tomorrow. And I need to scrape together about $20 quickly...

I'd make sure my monkey suit was clean and ready to go there, MM. Just a hunch. I hoped, pleaded, and asked for that exact set in a wish-list somewhere along the way. I know I did. So if it actually happens, I'm gonna feel super stoked that I "called" it... and hope that'll give me enough good karma to mooch (and pay) for one offa somebody else if it's somewhere I can't immediately get one from.

I really hope it's a new Wanda, but even a "Kirby Cap" could be a pleasant "necessary evil" figure. Think 1st Appearance Thor in terms of style and quality.

boyd Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I really hope it's a new Wanda, but even a "Kirby Cap" could be a pleasant "necessary evil" figure. Think 1st Appearance Thor in terms of style and quality. That is the question - will the set have characters that are a "safe bet" like Cap, or will they go with story- driven characters? Considering we got a Jean DeWolfe this year, I wouldn't be surprised to see Scarlet Witch. And if she doesn't make it this time, she's a shoo-in for the Avengers vs. X-Men waves that Zach hints about. And a First Appearance / Kirby Cap, done as well as First Appearance Thor, would be pretty cool. And would complete the Avengers box we got from years ago.

hellpop Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Could also be the Englehart time travel story to the old west, which could include Thor, Moondragon or the Two-Gun Kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) I'm still guessing Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes tie in. I'm 2 for 2, so my next guess is Wasp. Edited April 25, 2012 by Hawkeye's Junk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
