Minimate Product Types

Today, most of the 2-inch Minimate lines are sold as two-packs in Toys "R" Us, and as four-packs (with the occasional single-packed army-builder assortment) on the specialty market, including comic book shops and the Disney Store. Retailer-exclusive four-packs are common, and those are often timed to the major pop culture conventions.

Due to license restrictions limiting all Marvel Minimates to the 2" scale, a range of four 8" unarticulated resin statues under the "Minimates Max" banner were announced for 2006, to represent larger-scale characters in the Minimate style. Unfortunately, because of the cost and unarticulated nature of the statues, the line was not well-received and eventually cancelled, with only two of the four announced statues released, Galactus and the Sentinel. (Wolverine and Spider-Man were unproduced.)
