I know there is a thread for customs, but it doesn't get much attention. Also, we were supposed to get Blue Beetle's Bug ship from Spin Master, but we didn't. So I thought maybe this would inspire some fun custom work from those of you enjoy that sort of thing.
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! |

I found carapax at Target last week. 2 of them sitting on the peg. Grabbed one and left the other.
So they are out there |

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.

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

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.

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.
