Marvel Minimates

The New Fan Poll for Marvel Minimates Series 50 is live!

June 7, 2012 - For the past two weeks, Marvel fans have been voting on who they want to see in the line-up for Marvel Minimates Series 50. Coming in 2013, this assortment will celebrate ten years of Marvel Minimates from Diamond Select Toys, and DST wants the fans to pick who they wanna see! The third poll is up at Marvel.com now, and it features eight major villains, most of whom have not been seen in Minimate form before: Abomination, Apocalypse, Baron von Strucker, Baron Zemo II, Mojo, Onslaught, Vengeance and the Wrecker. They're all competing for the chance to battle their heroic counterparts in Series 50, so head over to Marvel.com and vote today! The top vote-getters will be made in that assortment next summer! Plus, the other two polls are still there, in case you haven't voted for your most-wanted heroes!

Poll is here:

The Marvel Minimates Series 50 Fan Poll Continues

Marvel Minimates

May 31, 2012 - Two weeks ago, Diamond Select Toys and Marvel.com announced their first-ever fan poll to decide a full series of Marvel Minimates. Through a series of four polls, Marvel fans get to choose the entire line-up of Series 50, which will hit in 2013 and mark the 10th anniversary of the line.

Last week's poll had fans choosing between eight new versions of the biggest Marvel heroes, but it's a new week, and there's a new poll up at Marvel.com! This week, the poll offers up eight supporting heroes, many of whom have never been made as Minimates -- Winter Soldier, Songbird, Black Knight II, The Falcon, Gladiator, Banshee, Luke Cage and Commander Steve Rogers. You can vote for your two favorites, and the highest-polling characters will be made in Series 50!
