I need that great "Ave Attack Thor" to make a cool generic Asgardian Warrior or possibly a nice Balder!

And Sif! Need me a Sif...

Good idea. I actually have that snowshoe thing from a ROC snake eyes figure. I'll let you know how everything turns out.

Me too...That's a great idea!!!!

So. Spawn Alley can't quite fit on my shelf fully assembled... so the top half is set aside, almost like a little shack on its own. Surprisingly enough, I actually like it this way.

And here's what happens when the Annual Supervillain Poker Tournament at Ace Garage gets interrupted:

If I knew the paint on my shelf would be so reflective, I would've slid some white paper in the background. I'll have to remember for next time!

ORIO · 09-15-2011, 11:21 AM

It amazes me how well that Spawn playset works with 4” figures. I used to have it too. Wish I remember what the hell I did with it

I've been doing something similar. It's awesome to bust out a killer little city, but I really have no permanent place to leave it, so I set up pieces on shelves just to spice up the display a bit.

This is what I have on one shelf..

Same here on the Sif, I need that figure, but don't want to pay the ridicolous scalper prices out there.

Boba Fettuccini · 09-15-2011, 12:07 PM

It's common here... I wouldn've bought one to offer up but i didn't think anyone would actually want it!

Ebay has one for around 18 with shipping. Sif that is. I don't think that's too ridiculous.

Nexodusrex · 09-15-2011, 12:17 PM

anybody know what the size of the back peg holes are to the Captain America and GIJoe figures? I am going to pick up a Nemesis Immortal figure and put his wings on Hobgoblin, making the new current one.
need a 4 inch compatable flaming sword.....wheres an angel of death when you need one *Grabs the bible*...

ORIO · 09-15-2011, 12:40 PM

Sweet sweet success!

Boba Fettuccini · 09-15-2011, 12:48 PM

Does it still have the lame arms with no shoulder rotation?

NoodleChow · 09-15-2011, 01:00 PM

whole new sculpt so that problem has finally been remedied.

DarkestKnight · 09-15-2011, 01:05 PM

Nice grab on the X-23, where did you find it?

omega145 · 09-15-2011, 01:21 PM

Has the new wave been found any other states than California, Nevada and New Mexico? Any East Coast sightings yet?
Why in the hell can they not release them all stateside at the same time????

felks22us · 09-15-2011, 01:26 PM

that's a great question. on the east coast we get them late and south Florida lacks so much lol

The way I've always seen it work is the distribution travels from west to east. Usually (not always) California finds something new at retail first, two days later if I'm looking hard enough I can usually find it.

That's just my thoughts though.

The arms are the same as the mu female figures with exception to the added elbow swivel. Her legs have added thigh and calf swivels with rocker ankles. She does have the neck pivot but it didn't do much because her hair prevents her from looking up. All and all agood step up for the mu female mold. Commander rogers and namor have a great mold.

There was a Zauriel figure that came out with the Total Justice line that might have a flaming sword and goes for cheap on ebay

It's awesome, isn't it? I got that for free back when the Dark Knight DVD first came out. It was a Best Buy exclusive mini-statue. Zero articulation, but it looks so damn cool that I don't care.

Do Boy · 09-15-2011, 02:32 PM

Ahhhh I want X-23 now!!

quinten182 · 09-15-2011, 02:43 PM

Any no-coast sightings? Er.. midwest..

I really need a Steve and 23. Otherwise I may pass on the rest to attempt to be good!

Symbiote · 09-15-2011, 03:26 PM

The new namor figure is also pretty bad ass. He's got great articulation as well and also works well for customizing since he is a bare figure to add all kinds of molding and painted on applications.
