Hello everybody,

Long time Arker here. This is a project I have been working on for a while. With the advent of 3-D printing technology and services (e.g., Shapeways) as well as the general awareness and promotion of custom pieces for action figures, I believe that it was time to highlight this industry more.

I therefore present to you: Man-At-Arm's Workshop (MAAW for short)

Man at Arms' Workshop

If there are two things I know about collecting MOTUC, it is this:

It is expensive. And often time we as collectors have to be careful where we put our money. (or at least we should be...)
Mattel may not create the pieces or figures that we want

This is where collectors come in-- providing much wanted pieces to the fanbase. But since collectors may be strapped for cash, are you hesitant because you do not know what to expect?

This is where MAAW comes in. We review these pieces with photographs and any tips regarding painting or how to purchase. Additionally, MAAW publishes articles regarding customization tips, opinion articles and interviews.

Here are some of your most recent reviews to check out:

DC Comics Sword of Power
He-Bro's Turret Handles!
Gladiatrix Mask
Battle Ram/Sky Sled Standard Holder
Tech-Zeyra Mk. 1 Guard Rifle
New review: evilmike's Pirate Sword and Sheath set

and much more!

New article time!

I don't know about you guys, but I love my Netossa figure. And if you are looking for a way to improve the under-accessorized Netossa, then you need to check out the Gladiatrix Trident by evilmike

Speaking of terrifying accessories, we also have coverage over the Caligar Boneweapon by Derwaffenmesiter for your Whiplash or upcoming Ceratus figure! This accessory easily tops the packaged ones we got with Whiplash and looks incredible to boot.

On the flag front- we also took a look at DJForce's Wave 2 flags which is easily one of the best sets to pick up to jump into the flag collection. So if you want a flag for your Horde, Great Rebellion, Skeletor, King Grayskull or Galactic Warriors than this is a must.

Finally, we made some updates to the Shapeways guide including some need to know customer rights comments which will help to maximize your store credit.

It is all over at MAAW!
