Diamond Select Toys Minimates Carrying Case

The whole feel of this carrying case for your Minimates reminds me of an old Matchbox carrying case that my brother handed down to me when I was a kid. The old Matchbox carrying case could hold 48 cars in four removable trays – I would have liked this case better if it had a much bigger capacity than what looks like 18 here.

I know a lot of folks who collect Minimates – they normally have a mountain of them.

Need a place to keep your Minimates? Well, you’re in luck!

That’s right, Diamond Select Toys, the maker of Minimates, now makes a case to keep them in. Take your Minimates with you in style!

Marvel Select Deadpool Packaged Pics

I said it when Diamond released pics of the Marvel Select Magneto, and I’ll say it again here – these alternate heads really should be pack-ins for otherwise very nice figures.

Marvel Select Deadpool comes fully equipped

This figure is one tough customer and he comes with all the tools of the trade. Deadpool features guns, sais, and swords. In short, he is almost unstoppable! Not only does he come in a wicked masked version, you can also get the variant unmasked version featuring his severely disfigured head! Be on the lookout for both versions at a comic store near you.

Marvel Select Magneto Packaged Pics

I really think the Marvel Select figures have been improving lately, and Magneto is no exception.

I’m not sure that a simple alternate head makes for a great variant though. I miss the days when that would just be a pack-in accessory.
