So...the 2007 Toy Fair just ended (well....a while ago...since I've been battling some writers block the time between starting this article and finishing it was well over two months) and to follow up on an article I posted in January about the plastic "crack" known as MiniMates, here's an official list of what's coming (or what was shown as possibly coming because in the volatile industry known as the Toy Industry things can change very quickly):
In addition to the already released (and mentioned in the previous article) Cylons from both the classic and new Battlestar Galactica, 2007 brings:

Excluding the movie posters that were shown but had no product, as well as waves we know are coming but don't know the contents of that's 203 different minimates (I'm coutning variations on characters). Wow! And that doesn't include any other potential waves for lines mentioned (more Marvel perhaps as a box set of the Defenders has been hinted at with artwork for a Doctor Strange mini-mate being revealed...I'm psyched about that one since he's one of my two favorite Marvel characters).
I think that's just cool.
My wife may divorce me once these guys take over the house (and they are well on their way).
I hope to have a review with pictures of some of these guys at some point. But it may be a while.
Be seeing you
