Created by Wolfgang Schloegl ( E-Mail ) Dear MIMP collectors: With this page I created already in the 90s one of the first MIMP pages on the Internet. In 2015 I quit collecting MIMP so this page will now not longer be maintained. I made a final update to some pages and the site will still stay as reference. Happy collecting, Wolfgang (January 2016) Monster In My Pocket (M.I.M.P.) figures were issued by Matchbox from 1990. These came in different series. Some series were not sold in the stores but were premiums for other products, mainly for cereals or the Nintendo M.I.M.P. Game. Especially the rareness of the Series 3 and the later series M.I.M.P. figures makes collecting M.I.M.P. exciting for collectors. As far as variations go, there are several Series 1 figures that were issued in exclusive colors with the Board Game or the Monster Clash. Another variation can be distinguished with either the letter A or B under a feet of the figures. Probably this indicates the factory in which the figures were produced. el_EdGaR reported that there are also figures with a C and most likely also with an F. Also Series 4 figures came in two types of plastic, one softer and one harder. The harder ones are more uncommon and so far only confirmed for the non glowing in the dark colors. Most collectors are looking for the figures, but there is also other collectible M.I.M.P. merchandising. On this page you'll find information about all these products. Here are the figures series: Series 1 #1-48, 1990 Series 2 #49-72 Series 3 #73-81, issued as premiums, #82-96 unreleased Series 4 #97-120, Super Scary Series 5 #121-144, Super Creepies 1992 Series 6 #145-168, Dinosaurs 1993 Series 6 b #145-168 Secret Skeleton Dinosaurs 1994 Series 7 #169-184 Space Aliens 1994 Monster Wrestlers In My Pocket W1-W9 were cereal premiums in the UK, W10-42 were sold in the UK in 1995 Following MIMP were not longer made by Matchbox but by Vivid Imaginations: Monster Sport Stars In My Pocket were cereal premiums in the UK in 1996 Monster Ninja Warriors In My Pocket were sold in the UK and in Scandinavia in 1996 Late Monster In My Pocket Dinosaurs released in the UK, not much known yet Here are the M.I.M.P. promotions: Nabisco Frosted Wheat Squares box and advertising, Series 1 figures Franco American Spaghettios advertising, Series 2 figures Spaghettios Inflatabel Monster Nabisco Shreddies, Series 3 figures #73-80 Big Boy Secret Monster Pack, Series 3 figures #?, 1992 Nintendo M.I.M.P.
