Of course I'm using the popcorn bucket version of the bug ship that Cinemark sold. The first thing I did was to paint the whole thing. It looks pretty cool as is, but I wanted to give it some more depth and detail. I designed and 3D printed a floor insert. I found a cool opening hatch STL, modified it, and included that in the floor as well. I 3D printed the console (and designed the graphics), plus some mounts for Ted's various arsenal and gadgets. The crates are also prints. The chairs are from Star Trek, but I printed swivel mounts for the bottoms of them so that they are a little taller and can turn around.

Lastly, I included some 90s era Justice league customs that I made forever ago. I still love them a lot, and it's fun to finally have a vehicle for them. Hope you enjoy!
This is incredible! One of the best custom vehicles I’ve ever seen

I should've waited to see what else they were going to do. I would've skipped the black manta sub set and gotten this instead.

Has anyone actually seen the 4" Carapax at Target or anywhere else?

So they are out there

Good to know! I can't get to Target more than a couple times/month, keep hoping I will find him.

These pics are from @longstoys on IG. New(ish) 4" figures shown at Toy Fair. LOVE that comic version of Blue Beetle. John Stewart looks like a newer/leaner sculpt. Plus we went from having no Black Mantas in this scale to having a movie version and comic version back to back. Oh, and Wonder Woman again.

Yeah, Spin Master can definitely keep this up. Same articulation—which is fine for me at this scale/price point—but the sculpt is a 100% improvement.

We did get a comic Black Manta earlier, so we have 3 now. Not sure if that one in pic is just a redeco.

It's ironic since Target just got the newest DC ones restocked again ie gold Wonder Woman.

Is that the same as the movie Blue Beetle with a different shade of blue?

The new GL is a definite improvement.

i still haven't seen the Aquaman pack online yet. Is it a Target exclusive? It's not on their site that I can see.

The 4 figure set (with the shark-guy) exclusive to Target is on their site. The "stealth suit" 4-pack is on Amazon, as well as the Black Manta with submarine vs Aquaman set.

Did we?? I don't know how I missed it. I have a custom BM that I really like, so maybe I just mentally glossed over having to buy him. Lol

Nope, that's definitely a new figure - has the segmented legs, wings... straight outta comics.

And I'm an idiot - I forgot the Aquaman/Black Manta 2-pack. This single carded version is just a repaint.

Check Burlington if anyone is still looking for the Swamp Thing pack. Saw a few of them for $13.

EDIT: Also Aquaman Spinmaster brought it up... under 2.5 lines of McFarlane figures.
