DST has posted the latest Q&A, and the questions are primarily focused on Marvel Minimates. Here’s the highlights:
- TRU series 15 will not feature any of the series 50 poll losers.
- Minimate boxsets aren’t reissued, since they can always update or redo characters in future assortments.
- DST expects to have movie-related releases in 2013.
- They may do more Black Widow figures now that she’s a bit more well known.
- Series 48 Mr Fantastic should have plenty of accessories.
- There have been requests for the 90s X-Factor team.
- No plans for Power Pack.
- If Rocket Raccoon was ever made, it might be similar to Snarf in its design.
- Not much consideration for West Coast Avengers.
- DST does not currently have rights to the potential SHIELD TV series.
- No plans for any more Street Fighter x Tekken beyond what’s been announced.
- No plans for Scarlet Spider in 2012.
- No plans for smaller scaled Minimates.
- Squadron Supreme will not be the 52nd series of Minimates.
- No plans for Star Wars, GI Joe, Masters of the Universe, or Indiana Jones. They’ve all been discussed, but for various reasons, the licenses aren’t available or aren’t interested.
Thanks for the summary, but where are those Iron Man 3 Minimates?
Looking at the cast list I guess we won’t see a new version of Scarlett Widow.
Of Course there’s no plans for Scarlet Spider in 2012 its almost over!
But the costume looks cool and “technically” it’s still Peter Parker, so it could pop up any time.
Is it me or is there a lot of no and not much yes or info on things? Maybe it is just the end of the year slump.
That or lame questions…
It would be nice though if they did release a bunch of slipper feet. Too many tall mates and I can’t keep buying Pucks.
