All this plastic and no real retro O-ring figures.

FINALLY. I love minimates and been wanting Joes for years. Here's hoping they get multiple runs!

Hope so! These seem small enough to fill a shelf or desk.

Not super familiar with minimates; are they normally multiple waves for licenses? Looking at the TMNT ones on BBTS the waves seem to be eight figures with chase figures. But those might be mass retail.

Sorry for the late reply; in my experience, they likely mean to do 2 or 3 boxsets of 4. However, this will greatly depend on how well it sells. GI Joe nostalgia is fairly high right now for products like this, so I am hopeful that it will meet their hopes and expectations. I'll buy whatever they make,

Mini mates were pretty much the Funko Pops of the early 2000s. They were extremely popular back then. Retail figures usually come in sets of 2 figures but sometimes 4, and there normally are multiple waves.
