Neat pics. All made in China? Anything made in Taiwan?? hint, hint....

I got my first 4 series in Hong Kong, so it is a strong possibility that the toys stores in Taiwan might carry these. They originate from Japan, but I suspect they get distributed throughout Asia.

My Series 2 BSG Minimates arrived on Friday. This set came with Commander Adama. Tigh, Boomer, Baltar, Cylon with Canons and two sixes ( Caprica and Gina(v)), Here are some pics of them with series 1.

As well, a few weeks back I won an eBay auction for some Star Trek Minimates, $10.00 and some shipping for all. These ones are quite a bit larger then the BSG ones. I have my series 1 Star Trek ones on Preorder and should ship next week, they are the same size as the BSG ones, so looking forward to those. What I am really waiting for in the next wave of Star Wars Kubricks, as it has been a long wait.

Great additions!!! I really like the way you have them set up.

Great stuff, Jeff. Those are the 3" Minimates from way back.

The 2" TOS mates just came out in the last week or so. I'm going to pick those up, too.

Yes, I did not realize how much larger they were then the ones now. I preordered my Star Trek 2' ones last week, and got the note they will be shipping this week.

I took this pic for a size comparison:

Cool picture Dan. I like how you have the 3 different Robins, very nice indeed

Jen · September 01, 2007, 06:38:18 AM

Thanks Jeff for the Kubrick vs. Legos size comparisons. Arnie and Marjorie were right, the detail on the Kubrics looks better. I'm going to get some of theseâ€"I love them. I'll create a Kubrick stormtrooper army around my desk at work, so people will leave me alone while designing. Do you think they're intimidating enough? :D

jedijeff · September 01, 2007, 07:04:35 AM

Yes, the Detailing on these are really good. It is one of those things that when you see them in person, that it far exceeds your expectation from Pictures. The Japanese put a lot of thought into their collectibles.

My Star Trek Series 1 Minimates arrived today :). I will release them from their plastic prison tonight. Looks like they come with a bunch of accessories which is really cool. Got word my Wifes new Camera shipped today, so hopefully next week I can take some better pictures.

Geekyfanboy · September 08, 2007, 10:20:53 AM

Cool stuff Jeff... the more I see the mini's the more I like them..

jedijeff · September 08, 2007, 09:56:39 PM

Thanks Kenny, I bought a new Stand the other day at Linen and Things for my Star Trek Minimates, will have to paint it. So hopefully next weekend I will have some loose pictures. My Wife new Camera is on its way as well, so I am hoping the quality of my pics will go up as well.
