Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

I think if MODOK wasnt on his flight stand he would be perfect. Proportionately he might be a little big but I think he fits well. In earths mightiest heroes and marvel vs capcom hes pretty big.

So yeah- he's perfect for classic MODOK...but if you want to make the current body version (from the Red Hulk series, which is excelent, BTW), get the IM toy line version and add legs and soup-up the guns on the sides of his head- that also looks very true scalewise to the comics!

BTW Dinofreak, here's an amazing site to get texture pics for your Danger Room!

You are killing me, I was going to post up info about that very issue to show scale and because of that I might have to be on the look out for a Modok for myself and I need a Foom as well but might wait for the masterpiece

CJ's comics- he really hooked me up on my MODOK/Sentinel score- but I help him with flyers and whatever too, so the karma goes 'round.
He's got bins and bins of loose figs and parts- sooo many boxes of stuff to sort through!

people got spoied by Mcfarlane lizard.

I'm actually the same way, glad we're getting an old-school Lizzy. I guess if they wanted to, we could see him pop up either later in-film or a sequel looking like McFarlane's.

That came out really good. Too bad the helmet doesn't fit over his head, that would of been perfect. Shouldn't take too long for you to figure something out.

true back even before secret wars. trying to figure out which issue though and if it was a mutation or artist rendition that stuck like Mcfarlanes webs

ALOPEZ527 · 03-15-2012, 08:04 AM

by the way I started making my 1:18 scale diorama. doing marvel knights because it seems to be the easiest out of all of the list. I am taking pics but to attach them to this site they want a url instead of just uploading them from my computer. I am doing the bricks on the building which will take the most amount of time because I am etching it in the foam board with an exacto blade the windows and door opening is cut out already though and i kept the pieces in order to make the door and maybe closed windows in future.

Any Idea on how to execute it?

Any Idea on a Good Pattern for the Walls?

i got this pic to for that same project but I have no clue as to how to do that cylindrical piece on the top floor level of the dander room

SoundWave88 · 03-15-2012, 08:35 AM

Oatmeal package or poster/blueprint tube.
