There’s officially less than a month before the Minions take over Hollywood. On July 1, Illumination‘s overall-wearing yellow folk will be back on the big screen for Minions & Monsters, telling the definitely real story of how they conquered the film industry and experienced the rollercoaster movie star lifestyle, from meteoric rise to precipitous fall, and an attempted comeback by way of a monster movie with real monsters. It’s expected to be pure chaos, as the Minions are once again thrust into the role of unlikely heroes stepping in to save the world from the monstrous mess they created. A big movie deserves some big collaborations, and Super7 is ready to provide, partnering with Illumination for a new Fun! Fun! vinyl mini-figure line that Collider is excited to share a first look at.
Super7’s adorably pocket-sized collectibles will be packed into blind boxes with the chance to get one of five characters from Minions & Monsters, or one of 18 variants. If anyone gets the starring role here, it’s James, who gets to dress in a toga or a pirate outfit for the movies, or a stylish suit for his big moment during Hollywood’s awards week. Henry, Ed, and Dick, meanwhile, only get one costume apiece, though they all represent a different genre of cinema, from an armored knight in a medieval epic to a stoic cowboy in a western and even a safari explorer. Each is available either in its normal colors or in grayscale as a special variant, making it feel even more as if the Minions emerged from a completely different cinematic era. One lucky person will also have the chance to find the one-of-a-kind Ultra Super Duper Mega Rare figures of Ed in clear yellow and James in a marbled toga exclusively at Super7 and Target, respectively.
Accompanying the Minions through the portal to Hollywood is none other than the big bad monster they summoned, Goomi, voiced by returning Despicable Me 3 alum and South Park co-creator Trey Parker. Goomi has a head like Cthulhu, but a tiny little body that makes him not nearly as threatening as the H.P. Lovecraft god he’s inspired by. Don’t let his initially friendly demeanor fool you, though. He’s responsible for leading the Minions to unleash the monsters that would plunge the world into chaos. He also rounds out the Super7 set with a normal, glitter, and glow variant, standing at an adorable 2.5 inches tall like his new yellow-skinned foes.

Five legendary universes. Five completely different visions of what the world could be — or already was. One of them is the world your instincts, your values, and your particular way of existing were built for. Eight questions will tell you which one.

🖖Star Trek
01
What gives your life its deepest sense of meaning? Every universe is built around a different answer to this question.
02
Which kind of world do you most want to inhabit? The environment shapes who you become. Choose carefully.
03
How do you prefer your conflicts resolved? The shape of a world’s conflicts tells you everything about its soul.
04
Who do you want beside you when things get difficult? Your ideal companions reveal the world you were made for.
05
What is your relationship with power? How you seek, wield, or resist power is the map of who you are.
06
How does your universe treat good and evil? A world’s moral architecture tells you more about it than any map.
07
What role would you naturally fall into? Every universe has archetypes. Which one fits you without trying?

What do you ultimately believe about the future? The answer to this is the clearest window into which universe already lives inside you.
Your Universe Has Been Chosen You Belong In…
Your answers point to the iconic universe your values, your instincts, and your particular way of seeing the world were built for. This is where you would find your people — and your purpose.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
You believe in the cause — in the idea that freedom is worth fighting for even when the odds are impossible and the empire is vast.
You are drawn to the moral clarity of a universe where hope itself is a form of resistance.
You’d find your people in the Rebellion — a ragtag coalition of true believers held together by conviction more than resources.
Star Wars is fundamentally a story about ordinary people choosing to matter in an extraordinary conflict — and that is exactly your kind of story.
The Force may or may not be with you. But the will to use it for something larger than yourself certainly is.
Middle-earth
Lord of the Rings
You understand, in the deepest part of yourself, that the journey matters as much as the destination — and that the world’s beauty is worth protecting even at great cost.
Middle-earth is a world of ancient wonder, deep friendship, and a darkness that only retreats when enough small acts of courage accumulate.
You would thrive here because you value the fellowship more than the glory — the road more than the arrival.
Tolkien’s universe rewards patience, loyalty, and the willingness to carry something heavy across a very long distance.
Those are not burdens to you. They are simply how you move through the world.
The Wizarding World
Harry Potter
You believe that love, loyalty, and doing what’s right are not naive sentiments — they are the most powerful forces in any world, magical or otherwise.
The Wizarding World is a place of wonder hidden in plain sight, where learning is transformative and the bonds you form at school follow you into every battle.
You would flourish here because you take both the magic and the friendships seriously — and you understand that one without the other is incomplete.
Harry Potter’s universe ultimately rewards those who choose to stand for something even when standing is terrifying.
That choice — made quietly, without guarantee — is something you understand completely.
Westeros · The Known World
Game of Thrones
You see the world clearly — its power structures, its hypocrisies, its brutal arithmetic — and you are not paralysed by that clarity. You use it.
Westeros is a world that rewards intelligence, adaptability, and the willingness to understand that every alliance is also a negotiation.
You would survive here — possibly thrive here — because you don’t confuse the world as it is with the world as you’d like it to be.
Game of Thrones is a story about what happens when the idealists and the realists collide. You are sharp enough to know which one lasts longer.
Winter always comes. You are already prepared.
The United Federation of Planets
Star Trek
You believe the future is worth building — that curiosity, cooperation, and the expansion of understanding are not just ideals but the most practical path forward for any civilisation.
Star Trek is a universe where the questions matter as much as the answers, and where encountering something utterly alien is cause for wonder rather than fear.
You would belong here because you are fundamentally optimistic about what intelligence and decency can achieve — while being honest about how hard that achievement is.
The Federation is the universe’s most ambitious thought experiment: what if we actually got better?
You don’t just hope that’s possible. You think it’s the only thing worth working toward.
‘Minions & Monsters’ Will Take the Minions to New Cinematic Heights
Minions & Monsters will be the seventh entry in Illumination’s juggernaut animated family franchise, and the stakes couldn’t be higher with the fate of the world and the Minions’ career in Old Hollywood on the line. The longtime voice of the Minions, Pierre Coffin, is at the helm as the sole director for the first time in the franchise, and he also penned the screenplay with returning Minions writer Brian Lynch. They got to work with another star-studded cast for the upcoming adventure, including Jeff Bridges, Allison Janney, Christoph Waltz, Jesse Eisenberg, Zoey Deutch, Bobby Moynihan, and Phil LaMarr. With over $5.6 billion and counting accrued so far by the wider Despicable Me franchise, Gru’s ever-present henchmen are poised to reach new heights with their fantastical love letter to monster movies.
Minions & Monsters arrives in theaters on July 1. Get a first look at the new Super7 Fun! Fun! Mini line in the gallery above and keep an eye out at Target and Super7’s official website for the tiny collectibles.
