Thanks, the color choice came from the Microman Batman.
I really loved the dark gray/black suit with blue for the cape, cowl, boots and gloves.
Used metallic blue for a little pop.
Body is Marvel Universe Ultimates Captain America.

The emblem I made by printing the logo I liked best(Batman Inc)
I then cut the thin clear plastic from a figure's packaging(think it was GI Joe) and glued the logo between 2 pieces.
Then just cut the plastic around the emblem.

Can't decide what to do about Batgirl's paint.

Thanks!
its not perfect but I had a .3 mechanical pencil which I dipped in the paint because I couldn't get good lines with a brush.
did the bottom of the bat symbol simply following the bust which created a guide for the top.

If I ever get ahold of one I want to switch the head from the TDKR line to

This from the evergreen line. Don't know if it has released on a single yet though.

Is this the same head as the one from that box set? My eyes are bad, it's hard to tell. I've had this one since last year, bought it for a Red Hood custom that I'll never do now that there's a Multiverse one.

Yup thats it, I figure the smaller size and softer shape will make it work better for a female head compared to http://figuresandmore.com/wp-content...n/img_1404.jpg.

Thanks.

Ah. Yeah, I bought that at either Big Lots or Dollar General last year. I got that Batman from one, and Joker from the other.

Quick question guys, how do you remove the heads of these Multiverse figures? TIA.

Thanks, he's one of my favorite customs I've done. Nolan's Joker was a great portrayal of a weaker villian who created strength by exploiting the vulnerabilities of others. He was to Batman what Moriarty was to Sherlock.

I've not done it with the Multiverse figures but the usual trick for popping the head off of a figure is using a hairdryer or holding it under hot water.


In other news I just got an e-mail saying the two Injustice packs I ordered have shipped and should be here Thursday. Can't wait.

[Specter]

Man with Origins Batman finally,
god I need Mattel to do Ra's, Shiva and maybe Talia.

TDK Bruce Wayne looks pretty good with Origins Batman, also the Infinite Heroes Gordon with a more realistic paintjob looks great next to him.

I regret not getting the Arkham Knight Batmobile now, Origins Batman even looks awesome standing with The Bat from TDKR.

Thanks bro.

I do hope we'll see the promo pics for Arkham Origins Deathstroke.

Has anyone tried sculpting goggles on Injustice Catwoman?

[slim19722]

Making remove able goggles is pretty easy with the friction disks from Joe legs, hockey tape for the strap, little glue and paint. I made these for a male head, so a tad large for Catwoman's head.

Thanks, I had avoided that figure because I preferred the regular Injustice design and thought that version felt off.
However after watching some reviews the costume is actually pretty good and think goggles could fix the head.

[snake5289]

It could always be painted black to look more like the modern comics and such. Personally I like the old school purple look to it.

Still don't understand how they decided which version of each character to make figures of though. Do they throw darts at pictures taped to the wall or something?

Thanks. Other guy is the 5POA Loki w/removable helmet currently being found at BigLots.
Messing around with the DC Black Mask figure. BigLots Loki head and repainted the helmet gold.




BM body also makes for some good Yakuza guys, Loki head has a kinda Asian look with Storm Shadow and Thor Hogun head/hands.

Yeah, the BL version is green, doesn't come with the staff and is on the old Marvel Universe card.
