The long wait is over! This week, New Toy Day will finally bring to the masses Series 1 of Battle Beasts Minimates! With characters and paint schemes exclusive to comic shops and specialty stores, plus new packaging with artwork by Dan Brereton, this assortment of Diamond Select Toys’ most detailed Minimates ever is not to be missed!

This assortment of two-inch warrior animals includes four different two-packs: Vorin the Ram with Vachonus the Scorpion, Merk the Falcon with Fenruk the Tarantula, Gruntos the Walrus with Tate Reynolds and Strictus the Rattlesnake with Bliss Reynolds. The Beasts are all depicted in exclusive comic- accurate color schemes, and human characters Tate and Bliss are only available in this assortment – they each come with one of the two Dread Weapons, so don’t miss out!

Each Minimate stands around 2 inches tall with 14 points of articulation and a variety of removable and interchangeable parts and accessories, so you can create your own animal combinations! Check out some product photography below, and if you haven’t read the IDW Publishing mini-series yet (with art by Journey Into Mystery‘s Valerio Schiti), these toys just might inspire you to pick up the collected edition!
