With the renewed focus on getting more X-men merchandise to collectors, companies have really begun to spoil us! For two years straight we have received two great waves of Marvel Legends and Diamond Select currently has a nice selction of Minimates featuring classic characters like Lady Deathstrike, Magneto and Mojo. But Diamond isn’t content!

It’s the 15^th anniversary of the Marvel Minimates line, and to celebrate, they’re going back to where it all began! This four-pack of Minimates captures two classic X-Men and two classic Evil Mutants in the 2-inch mini-figure form. A classically-styled Marvel Girl and Professor X team up to take on Quicksilver (in his green costume) and Toad – one of the first Marvel Minimates ever designed, in his first-ever release! Each Minimates mini-figure features 14 points of articulation and fully interchangeable parts, including unmasked hair for Jean Grey, a Cerebro helmet for Professor X, and alternate parts to turn Professor X into Mastermind!

This set will retail for $24.99 this winter, which is not bad for what is basically 5 characters. If you are a classic X-Men fan you’ll want to add this set to your collection.
