Walgreens has a pretty good thing going right now with their exclusive Marvel Animated Minimates. They get a lot of cool figures that aren’t making appearances anywhere else. Screwball? M.O.D.OK.? Minimates has them. Check out these images of of the upcoming 8th series of Marvel Animated Minimates.
From Marvel’s Spider-Man, Stealth Suit Spider-Man takes on Screwball! The Internet personality with a mean streak is ready to humiliate Spider-Man in front of millions so Peter Parker has donned his all-black stealth suit to stay below her radar. Spider-Man includes a webline accessory and leaping support stand, while Screwball has her pouch full of gear. This is the first Minimate of Screwball!
Also from Marvel’s Spider-Man, Spider-Gwen, a.k.a. Gwen Stacy, tangles with the Jackal! The web-slinger comes with a webline accessory and leaping support stand, while her uncle, Professor Miles Warren, makes his debut in the Marvel Minimates format!
From Marvel’s Avengers: Secret Wars, The Wasp is menaced by MODOK! The size-changing heroine includes a removable helmet, detachable wing accessories and a transparent flight stand, while the super-smart, super-sized AIM leader floats on a support stand.
Also from Marvel’s Avengers: Secret Wars, the Black Panther strikes at the evil Madame Masque! The warrior from Wakanda must defeat the beautiful criminal from Iron Man’s past. Black Panther includes a removable mask, while Madame Masque includes an interchangeable unmasked head and hair piece. This is the first Madame Masque MInimate ever made!
This is a pretty nice lineup of figures! If I had to pick the ones I liked most and least it would be M.O.D.OK. and Jackal. How could you not love M.O.D.O.K.? Jackal is kind of underwhelming. That’s not Diamonds fault, it just his overall design. I have never cared for Jackal as a character either, so he has that strike against him as well.
Series 8 will hit Walgreens stores on or around April 1, 2018.
