Daaamn!
I have pretty much all of those parts and mine still wont look that good!
Instead of a Slayer anything, I have a 3.75" wresteling figure with ideantical legs (possibly the source of Slayer's casting).
That Marvel Girl- that's the same head as Phionex/Psylocke?
Psylocke is the new Falcon down here- she's on every peg, pleading for me to buy and make into some custom...already I see a Snowbird or a better head for the Enchantress.

Veronica Mars · 05-11-2012, 11:56 PM

Yup same head. Lucky you I have still never seen a psylocke on the pegs in this area

Jason Abbadon · 05-12-2012, 12:09 AM

The odd distribution of MU always amazes me- usually things pop up on the west coast first and trickle their way over to us on the east coast...but occasionally (I guess) west coast retailors dont order enough or some damn thing.

Hey, I found something odd last week at my LCS's "loose toy bins"- the old Toybiz Juggernaut with no helmet (the one with super-deformed arms that would drag on the ground).
Damned if the head is not 3.75 scale and a ringer for the upcoming comic-pack fig.
Probabaly coincidence, but the same open mouth and everything.

Veronica Mars · 05-12-2012, 12:14 AM

I've seen the entire wave except Psylocke, it's quite odd

Shhhh! You're not supposed to notice that.
YOu've got some great customs, man!

In keeping with an Invaders/All Winners squad theme, I have a request:
Make Master Man- I bet any Duke head on a Wonderman bidy would look perfect.
Nothing like a villian that out-Nazi's the Red Skull!

That dude had problems.

I'll give you a pass on making the Torch's old feeme fatale enemy, Asbestos Lady.
Yes, she really ran around in dress made from fireproof (and lung-shredding) asbestos. and died of cancer from it (shown in a Marvel Comics Presents story).

lol thanks but are you asking me or ms mars to make the customs

Jason Abbadon · 05-12-2012, 12:27 AM

You for the Master Man- you've got the WWII thing rocking!
You should also make WWII Nick Fury, Captain Savage and Combat Kelley.
My roomate would crawl through the internet to steal those!

I want something like that, would love to have the reactor and hands and feet light up, then just pose him on 1 of my HLJ stands and have him in flight mode. would look awesome!

would the insides of one of the Tron Legacy figures be any use for that reactor??

My mostly finished Emma Frost, I need to clean up the lines a bit and I have to figure what to do for the X-Logo on her belt, my hand is not steady enough to paint it. And for those who wonder, that is a Secret Wars Storm head with RoC Cover Girl's hair

Well, as I mentioned, that was for the Philippines' release date...i'm not sure when it will come over to the US..or if it will be simultaneous?

Glad the items made it to you safely! Looks great with your display, I wasn't sure if you wanted the dark blue or light blue Thing. I gave you the dark one to match Johnny, looks better together IMO. Plus I think he's the variant version.
