Superhero Times indicates that Diamond Select Toys and Art Asylum have banded together to bring Minimate fans Darktide, described as the Minimate’s first “full-length mini-movie.” Arriving in stores with the new Minimates set, the film’s plot is, “When Storm goes missing during an undercover mission, it’s up to the X-Men to investigate. But their search gets even more dangerous when Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants arrive on the scene! Featuring an original script officially approved by Marvel Comics, Darktide also features the Minimate debut of Archangel, Beast and the Minimates Max Sentinel in all their fully-rendered glory!” Screenshots from Darktide, to be released in the spring of 2006, may also be seen at Superhero Times.
