Correct!!!! Given the alternative of no Future Foundation, I can live with a shirtless Thing.

And yes, would of made it more accurate ... now what do I do with Herbie????

Tiberius · 11-17-2011, 09:53 PM

Make an evil Herbie lol.

SoundWave88 · 11-17-2011, 09:55 PM

An evil flamed-on Herbie!!

Tiberius · 11-17-2011, 09:56 PM

Use the Herbie head on a Silver Iron Man or Ultron body.

SoundWave88 · 11-17-2011, 10:01 PM

So do you guys really think the SW 2 pack version of Dr. Doom is better than the single carded one? How about Absorbing Man?

Tiberius · 11-17-2011, 10:04 PM

This is what happend to my SW comic pack

They are no better or worse. SW ones comes with a gun for Doom, who works better with Taskmaster.

SoundWave88 · 11-17-2011, 10:06 PM

Wonder if the bottom portion of Herbie could fit on IM2 Iron Monger...or on one of the 6" figures.

Yep, coats upon coats of white...

flipwilson · 11-17-2011, 10:54 PM

Does anyone have any recommendations as to what head I should use for the Nick Fury head cast I'm going to do? I have just about every Marvel, Star Wars, and G.I Joe figure that's been made in the past 5 years.

IronAvenger · 11-17-2011, 10:58 PM

Anyone got a loose giantman, skrull, and a bulldozer for sale? Still a couple of holes to fill, almost done...FOR NOW. Sometimes I look at my collection and think to myself, dam that's a lot of money I spent.

Ha ha indeed! Same here:P And I finally got my Quicksilver/WM 2 pack and my other stuff that I ordered. It's one thing when buying a figure from Ebay and the card comes messed up, but when Hasbro does it, that's a dang shame!

Yo i feel you! I was looking at my collection the other day and i shocked myself.

I currently have 70 figures displayed, plus a Sentinal and a Goliath. as well as whats on my BST thats plus what i have on the way via trades.

So if you estimated 8 dollars per figure retail price thats 560 bucks right there, but I didnt pay retail for all my figures I so I'm probably around 650 or 700 in just whats displayed. Sentinal and Goliath thats close to another Hundy

Plus the 20 figs in my BST at 8 a fig is another 160 but i didnt pay retail for all of those either so thats more like 200.

and I just orderd some stuff for 85.00 so in short i'm definitly over 1000 bucks.

And thats just MU!!

I need to take pics but I have HERBIE's head on an Hammer drone body and it's hysterical...and I have a gatling gun to mount under another HERBIE- I may make his eyes red, as all evil robots have red eyes.

HERBIE's head looks great on a T3 tank- like Johnny 5 in full apoclypse mode.

And I need to post pics of my custom Ultron- a head swap onto a silver Hammer Drone with spikes added to the arms for that "I'm a badass killer robot" look.
It also makes Ultron a lot taller and more imposing.

Thaks for posting pics of those Captain Britians- I'm making the Cap Line versions and an extra Yellowjacket into Kree soldiers...I made decals for the chest symbols and everything!

....and next to make some Skrull soldiers- in the classic Skrull uniforms with the zig-zag black and purple.

But before all else, Impulse of the Sh'iar Imperial Guard!

Now that is just crazy talk- he's got the best costume and a removable gun and knift...what's not to love?

Give him a modern machine gun from a GI Joe fig and he's ready to join MI-13!
By far the best fig from that wave.

I've got one of each of those in my BST. $8 each, probably $3 to ship them both. Heads up.

I just hate his stumpy legs! They made his legs too short or his top too bulky or somthing.

I can't really nail it down but they just made him look terrible. I've seen some shots where from different angles it looks ok i guess. but thats all just smoke and mirrors. I just feel Hasbro missed the mark

D Day · 11-18-2011, 12:11 AM

Maybe it's the way his legs connect into his torso. I just dont think it looks right. Which is sad because i'd like to buy him. but I just think he looks bad.

Jason Abbadon · 11-18-2011, 12:32 AM

Yeah...that's the old daredevil buck- I'd love to see an update, but it'll never happen and making a custom on that cosyume would be a huge pain in the ass.

Snowflakian · 11-18-2011, 12:34 AM

The new avengers toy listings have got me pumped. Looks like we'll be getting those Ironman exosuits afterall and a quinjet!

Can't wait to expand my MU dio's with those!
