Very addictive blocky action figures that are compatible with LEGO and other blok lines. They've been going since around 2001.
They also have done a lot of stuff with them....
DC Comics (though sadly were halted by DC because they didn't sell well enough)
Marvel Comics and Movies (which has been their longest going line in the Minimates brand)
Lord of the Rings
Thundercats
Back to the Future (even did a few versions of the car)
Ghostbusters (both the movies and even the animated Real Ghostbusters)
The Walking Dead
Star Trek (all of the stuff, but mainly the Original Series)
Knight Rider
The Munsters
Universal Monsters
Tomb Raider
Battlestar Galactica (modern and classic)
Street Fighter
Marvel vs. Capcom 3
Rocky
Terminator 2
And aside from the upcoming
TMNT, which I'm pumped for,
Aliens,
Kill Bill, and
Pulp Fiction are also getting Minimates.
Here's a website that shows every single figure that's been made to date...

I actually have high expectations for the TMNT Minimates given how if you look at the Marvel Comics ones and how they evolved and became so detailed and awesome. Seriously, I gave up collecting Marvel Legends years ago because the Minimates are so much cooler with all kinds of classic looks for characters with options.
Here's a few really cool ones to show off what I mean....
