That was fast.

Lastnight I posted that Doc Ock needed a redo with better tentacles and today this picture of a new boxset pops up over at marvelousnews.com. I like these, even the BD Spidey. That Vulture can only mean that Falcon can't be far behind. Wouldn't a Captain America boxset be nice with. Falcon, Winter Soldier, Cap, and Crossbones? Ah to dream.

Minimates in need of a redo 2

After the Fantastic Four I think the following are in much need for a second try.

Elektra. Sure maybe a block figure is not the ideal medium for a veluptuous ninja with a costume made of flowing fabric but come on the first one looks very plain when Elektra is anything but.

Dr. Octopus. Sure he isn't as big a part of the spiderman books as he once was but he is one of the big Spider-man foes. Let's see if we can't get some articulation on the tenticals this time too.

Staying in the realm of the big boned. Kingpin. He's back in Hells Kitchen and should be back on shelves with a much better chest piece this time.

Nightcrawler. Put him in a different costume if you have to but he needs another go. Many new collectors have a slim chance of obtaining this fan favorite character because of the high price the boxset is getting on eBay.

Professor X. Two words. Hover. Chair.

616 Nick Fury. Or just a 616 Shield Agent army builder would suffice.

What minimate of waves gone by would you like to see remade? Leave it in the comments.

Minimates in need of an update. Vol.1

Marvels first family The Fantastic Four. I know that there have already been Minimates of the Fantastic Four but it was many many waves ago. We have had approximately 15 Wolverines and 251 Spider-Man variants since then. The older F4 are fine but they do not look as great as a lot of the newer Minimates. They could be a wave unto themselves.

Pack 1
Reed Richards and in the place of a different character he could come with a plethora of accessories so that you can see how Fantastic he can be.

Pack 2 and 3
The Storms. Johnny in his Fantastic Four uniform packed with a translucent Sue, and Sue in her uniform with a Translucent Johnny complete with a new flame base.

Pack 4
The Thing. It would give DST a use for that Ben Grimm design that they made for the Secret Wars poll and it would give us an awesome new Thing with some great new sculpted details.

I am going to give some more characters that have been made some thought so check back here soon for more Minimate Musings. Thanks for reading.
