Not sure if it'll work, but you could try the legs from the big DKR Bane figure. He's tall (different scale) and he's got pants! For painting!

tough one. aside from beefing up the articulation using parts from other toys which would be ridiculously extensive. new hips and ankles for sure. dunno offhand what toy is lizard like with decent articulation other than trying to merge it sorta with a legends scale version. but that would maybe raise him up about a centimeter.

also platforms. cuz disco lizard is always ready to party.

my haul from yesterday morning

and went to Wally tonight. Nothing new but found a Gamorrean Guard for myself and picked up an extra Hulk 4 pack (also still have the other Avenger one) if anyone needs it

rupertvalero · 05-29-2012, 06:15 AM

i got my robot spirits Nu gundam today. nice figure. could use some detailing on small stuff. its a plus!

Optimus Vader · 05-29-2012, 06:27 AM

Nice haul, Wolvie ^^ I'm hoping I can find a Gamorean Guard or two whenever that wave gets to my area.

I struck out at Walmart again this morning on my daily 6" Avengers stop, but did at least get a Bane. There was one Bane and three Bats.

How much are these movie masters costing you guys? They didn't go uo to $20 like the DCUC Arkham figures did they?

They're $16 at Walmart. Not sure about TRU and Target.

Well since he has pin/post knees (Im assuming) maybe the lower legs from one of those Redakai figures that are on clearance at Target would work?.... or maybe the lower legs from a Star Wars figure?

What about some parts off a six inch movie Green Lantern figure, Isla Mot is his name I thonk.

Jason Abbadon · 05-29-2012, 08:06 AM

Iasmot had zero articulation- not even ball shoulders! The tail might look okay though.

I've got a pretty good Lizard head I'd give you- the one with the articulated jaw.
Might even have the tail and coat somewhere too..I doubt I'll ever get to customizing one anyway.

Fu@#king scalpers strike again....

Unbelievable! 'grats to you for keeping your cool. I will go out of my way to let kids pick out what they want and have, on a couple of occassions, given up a "rare"/collector's figure because a kid was eyeballing it. One kid actually told me so and so was his favorite character so I let him have the figure. It's terrible that people forget that toys are for kids.

Where are those Avenger figures? I haven't seen them yet, and never did see the first wave Hawkeye as well. Ugh.

Totally agree with you there!

Optimus Vader · 05-29-2012, 10:30 AM

I'm a machine..

Another Widow (I'm looking for 6" Avengers), another Renner, two variant Cobra Commanders (one up for trade--6" Avengers), Bane & Batman (bought another Bane this morning at WM, but Target has the movie pass thing), and a Zartan for proteus if he still needs one.

Frank- Movie Masters are $16.50 at Target. You need to spend $20 on DKR stuff to get the free movie pass.

LapuLapu · 05-29-2012, 10:32 AM

So jealous of that BW , that figure eludes me.

haha nice, which figure did it come from? i wish i'd gotten the spidey line lizard and just beefed up the articulation but that'd be a lot of work too.

also these pics of the red ninja are tempting.

LapuLapu · 05-29-2012, 10:55 AM

Buy it Noodle chow!!!!

Tiberius · 05-29-2012, 10:56 AM

Kinda really want that Spider-Man.

i think it's the only one worth getting. i have some minor gripes about it but i find even at 9.99+ it was a good buy.

LapuLapu · 05-29-2012, 11:04 AM

Buy it Tiberius!!

Just buy em now Noodlechow since Hasbro is not restocking this line soon , you have 3 months to sit on it , if you want em or not atleast you have em and regret later that you have to wait till next year to get em at retail.

And besides im betting that super skrull custom of yours will do very good at ebay , maybe like $1000

NoodleChow · 05-29-2012, 11:08 AM

that is a good point. also the same reason why i'd grabbed zartan from peteparker. didn't find any so that worked out.

avcprime · 05-29-2012, 11:12 AM

hey rupert, How big are the gundam spirits? Do you have any mg's that you may take pictures with?

Ugh! Killin' me, OV, lol!!! I did a huge sweep of Wallys, Targets, and TRU's here in Northern Cali (valley area) over the long weekend...slim pickins.
Did finally score ultra-Spidey and that awesome Zartan.
