Minimates are the ugliest thing ever. I had the ghostbuster ones and they were cheap crap. One of the few things I regret buying

I agree. I've never seen the appeal of them. My kid bought some marvel ones on clearance and he seemed to lose interest in them about 10 minutes after we got home lol

I have seen people in other groups mention some stuff that is pretty odd.

The Pack looks like it contains a mouser and ooze canister that no one is talking about, but they are saying it is weird that Leo and Mikey are missing their weapons and that there are only 2 stands...

It seems that Minimates are dying off and that Diamond select doesn't even care enough to pack the proper weapons and bases to what could be one of the more popular sets they have released.

These colors are from the original Playmates action figures, not the cartoon.

Who buys these things? The adult collector I am has zero interest in minimates, and I know that if these were around when I was a kid I wouldn’t have wanted them then either

I never saw the appeal of block figures at all. My only exposure to them was as accessories to LEGO sets and I had no interest in construction sets either.

Then my mother bought me the 3" Star Trek Minimates as a kind of gag gift. I didn't realize how poseable they were and got hooked immediately. They've have so many different licenses that it was like MEGO all over again and then some. I amassed over 3,000 of the little dudes.

But my interest has been waning as the properties that interest me most – DC, MCU, Alien, Star Trek – have been pruned from DST's catalog. Roblox seems to have usurped the block figure throne at retail and I've no intention of getting into another such collection.

Ah, see my kid was not much into LEGO but my mate gave us some of his Mega Construx spares and we bloody love those, especially the growing range of Masters of the Universe figures and brick sets. The mini-figures are astounding. Very detailed and posable and we've got a few of the other ones too like Alien and God of War and some Ninja Turtles too. Ace stuff.
