The folks over at Diamond Select Toys hit The Rock Father with details on some upcoming Minimates this afternoon, complete with photos. Among the new offerings are figures and vehicles from THE MUNSTERS, STAR TREK (the original series), and a special version of SANTA CLAUS… on a pirate ship. Are any of you collecting these? Check out the details below…
Munsters Koach Minimate Vehicles
The Munsters are going Mini! The next Minimates Vehicles will be the first-ever Munsters Minimates vehicle, the Munsters Koach! While Toys “R” Us has a kolor Koach with the standard Herman Minimate, comic shops and specialty stores will get an exclusive black-and-white version (click here to pre-order from Entertainment Earth!), with an exclusive Minimate of Herman Munster in his racing outfit! The Koach can accommodate multiple 2-inch Minimate figures, and is packed on a blister card.
I wonder if 1313 MOCKINGBIRD LANE will get Minimates?
Star Trek: The Original Series USS Enterprise Minimate Vehicle
Star Trek Minimates return! After a long absence, DST is bringing back Trek ‘Mates with their most spectacular Minimates vehicle yet — the starship Enterprise! With an opening bridge dome and a hidden Jeffries tube in the engineering section, the ship measures 10 inches long and includes an exclusive Minimate of Captain Kirk. Exclusively available at comic shops and specialty stores through the Previews catalog! Click here to pre-order from Entertainment Earth!
Santa’s Pirate Ship Minimate Vehicle
Christmas is coming, but it’s not coming in a sleigh pulled by eight reindeer. No, this year Santa Claus is on a boat! DST’s 2-inch Minimates mini-figure of ol’ Saint Nick comes with his festively painted pirate ship, which is packed with opening hatches, extending planks and removable sails (not shown). It’s the perfect stocking stuffer for the Minimates fan in your life, or for anyone who likes boats and Christmas. Exclusively available at comic shops and specialty stores!
They’ve also pointed out that their Toys R Us Exclusive version of KNIGHT RIDER’s K.I.T.T. has hit stores, so have fun hunting for this guy…
