Wings of Redemption Spawn Minimate

Wings of Redemption Spawn Minimate
We've already seen his regular Spawn and now customizer Les Koting gives us yet another design: Wings of Redemption Spawn Minimate. As much as I loved the other one, I must say I do prefer this one over the original. Although his style doesn't really blend in with most of the other Minimate lines' clean paint jobs, the color scheme is amazing. And so is the texturing on the sculpting. Great work. Have a closer look and view mor pics after the jump.

Mockingbird Minimate

Mockingbrid Minimate
Did somebody say West Coast Avengers? Bobbi Morse, better known as Mockingbird is a long deceased (actually kidnapped) and currently resurrected (this time she was dead, well, close to) character from the Silver Age of comics and I must say, I always loved her costume. The old one, not the current. Gladly, customizer Psyguy was aiming for that very look and he did a great job on this Mockingbird Minimate! Very nice details, clever use of parts and nicely added sculpted pieces. Have a closer look and read all about the recipe after the jump.

Constrictor Minimate

Constrictor Minimate
Constrictor, aka Frank Something-Something, was a SHIELD agent who became a criminal after he killed several youths. Or was it, because he was Deadpool's roommate for some time? You never know. Customizer Hellpop took his shot on this guy and came up with a pretty decent Constrictor Minimate custom. Some nice decals, some clever re-used parts and there you are. You can have a closer look, read all about the recipe and even get the decals to make your own Constrictor Minimate over at his blog right after the jump.

Giant Man Minimate

Giant Man Minimate
Personally, I never liked Hank Pym that much as a character, but he makes it easy to be disliked. From the several identities he held I might like Giant Man best and this here is a great Giant Man Minimate. Customizer JBoogie designed some fine decals for him and I especially like how his face turned out. He also used a 2.5 inch body, towering above all other mates, and I know that a lot of people would love to see those taller Minimates to represent big (but not bulked up) characters. We all know this won't happen but that doesn't hold customizers back, right? You can read all about the recipe and see more pics of him after the jump.

The Maxx Minimate

The Maxx Minimate
Image Comics published quite a few of those huge, bulked up characters back in the 1990s. Pitt comes to mind, or the Creech and this guy here, the Maxx. We've already seen a brilliant The Maxx Minimate by Shamrock, but customizer Les Koting interprets this guy in a different, much darker way. Especially the sculpting is superb. The boots are bloody amazing and his face and headdress/mane is just incredible. All in all a very impressive custom! You need to have a closer look at this guy and view a lot more pics after the jump.

Revengers Minimates

Revengers Minimates
Are you familiar with Marvel's rather obscure Cancerverse? No? Well it's a corrupted, sentient parallel universe to the regular Earth-616 in there you can meet the Revengers. Customizer Shamrock assembled the Revengers Minimates and brought us Mrs. Marvel, Thor, Vaughn, Scarlett Witch, Team Leader Lord Mar-Vell, Iron Man, Adam Magnus, Cap America and Giant Man! Make sure you have a closer look on each and every member of the Revengers after the jump.

Young Avengers Minimates

Young Avengers Minimates
Young Avengers assembled! Customizer Psyguy did the incredible job to complete the whole team and we can now have a look at how official Young Avengers Minimates would look like. I've already presented his Wiccan and Patriot customs, but now he did them all: Vision 2.0, Kate Bishop, Iron Lad, Patriot, Stature, Wiccan, Hulkling and Speed. Just Great! Go have a closer look and read about the recipes after the jump.
