Marvel Minimates appreciation thread

Anyone else collect these little guys? I've been in to them since they were first introduced.

Re: Marvel Minimates appreciation thread

Just what are these things? I've seen 'em around in comic shops. Do they belong in the Lego family, or am I completely barking up the wrong tree?

The best way to experience these, short of playing with them, is to look at lots of cool pics.

I llike the fact that they are interchangable so you can create your own characters. They have removable masks so you get the whole secret ID thing and they usually come with cool accessories. They're small and have good articulation.

These are actually kind of cool. However, must... resist... temptation...

I always wanted to get into this line, but I dunno if I could sustain another collection. I just wish they were readily available at TRU like in the states.

Anybody see the cool stuff thats coming through there, like the new spidey sets

Re: Marvel Minimates appreciation thread

Just opened my first Minis, the new Cap and Red Skull set. So cool!

Cap has a mask and a separate gun and knife with holsters for them and he's got a really nice metallic paint for the red and blue on his costume. The Skull is cool too, but maybe it's just Brubaker's run on Cap but they're so freakin cool!
