Since the Minimates brand itself first launched way back in 2002, there have been very few Minimates lines that have had as much staying power as Marvel. Actually, Marvel is currently the only brand of Minimates with any kind of tenure even close to itself! The first Marvel Minimates were some of the earliest 2″ scale Minimates to hit the Market, and they’re the only licensed brand that has managed to keep itself going straight through for the last 14 years!

This week at New York Toy Fair 2016, the team at Diamond Select Toys showcased some of the newest Marvel Minimates we have to look forward to in the coming year!

Coming in the immediate future is Marvel Minimates Series 66, which is the first wave based on ‘Captain America: Civil War‘! This series has been shown before and is comprised of lots of your favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe characters like Captain America, Iron Man, Winter Soldier, Black Panther, War Machine, and Battle Damaged War Machine! These are hitting stores in May!

A little bit later in the year for Marvel Minimates Series 68, fans can look forward to a fancy new series based on the classic ‘Giant Sized X-Men #1’! This set is comprised of four figure 2-packs and includes many of your favorite X-Men characters like Cyclops, Wolverine, Banshee, Nightcrawler, Storm, Colossus, Sunfire, and Thunderbird! While some of these characters have been done in this style before, these are all brand new updated versions, so this set is definitely one to keep an eye out for when they hit stores this fall!

One announcement that really gave us a pleasant surprise was the reveal of two all-new Marvel Minimate figure 4-packs based on the two Marvel Netflix television series that have aired so far. This summer fans can look forward to a ‘Daredevil‘ themed set that includes Daredevil/Matt Murdock, Foggy Nelson, Wilson Fisk, and Claire Temple! Then in the fall, we’re getting a ‘Jessica Jones‘ set featuring Jessica Jones, Killgrave, Luke Cage, and Trish Walker!
