Diamond Select Toys Thor Movie Minimates Singles

Diamond Select Toys showed off the Thor Movie Minimates 2-packs the other day, and here’s some singles. I try not to follow the movie news, so I’m not sure if this is another costume for Loki or another Asgardian god. Balder? And the older guy in the suit, no idea there. I think it’s neat that the Frost Giants can be army builders, but these are all 2-inch Minimates, right?

Thor Movie Minimates single packs

Available in addition to the Thor Movie Minimates 2 packs is this assortment of single pack figures. Perfect for army building!

Diamond Select Toys Thor Movie Minimates

In Minimates format, these guys look fine to fit in with my comics-based Marvel Minimates – and that Destroyer is just like his comics counterpart. I am guessing that’s SHIELD Agent Phil Coulson (who appeared in the Iron Man movies) in the back.

Thor Movie Minimates

Now available for order are these Thor Movie Minimates. Includes Thor, Loki, The Destroyer, Odin, Jane Foster and a Frost Giant!

I never owned MEGOs when I was a kid, so I’m not all that familiar with them. As an adult, I’ve seen them being used in Robot Chicken and Toyfare, even in the movie “The 40-Year Old Virgin”, and I know that they are classic toys, but I never purchased any of them.

Now they have made sort of a comeback with EMCE starting to work on various licenses like the Mattel’s DC Retro Action Heroes and Bif Bang Pow’s Venture Brothers, and they have caught my attention lately. The price had been keeping me from buying any ($19.99 in most retailers), but I decided to try them by purchasing a Brock Samson. I loved Brock so much that when I stumbled upon an Aquaman and Black Manta at T.J. Maxx for $9.99 each I had to pick them up too. When I saw Universal Studios Classic Frankenstein at Toys ‘R’ Us last week, he looked so good I knew I had to pick him up! Am I ill with Mego Madness?
