Those hands on Blade looks horrible. He can't even hold his own sword right.

Optimus Vader · 09-22-2011, 07:36 AM

Blade can loosely hold his sword, but I'd agree that he could use better hands than the "I'll scratch your face" hands he has.

im lovin' that vision custom. wanted to do that myself by making molds of him with clear resin. Howevor, im bothered that the customizer decided to destroy one of the rarest and sought after figs of the line.

Is it really? Didn't he come out in a revision wave a little while back? I got my hands on two because of it.

This one doesn't seem that rare. i think i paid total of 14.00 for him with shipping which isn't bad

He used the phasing vision which wasnt that hard to get and still isnt. Its the regular Vision which is one of the rarest and sought after.
I prefer my custom phasing vision over both the variant and regular version.

the clear one? yeah. but it looked like he was customizing the original colored one.

Nexodusrex · 09-22-2011, 07:52 AM

that blade body is the Punisher/Black Panther body from Wave 1 and it SUCKS. SUCKSSUCKSSUCKS

Its the 1 worst marvel universe body mold. I mean those hands, they cant hold hardly anything.

Marvel Universe has given us some good figures in the past, but there are a couple figures from the first year that need a rerelease. A Couple, not many.

off the top of my head, Hulk, Red Hulk, Blade, Black Panther, Daredevil, Punisher, Bullseye, Magneto, Silver Surfer, and X-Force Wolverine are the ones who most needed a reboot, and thankfully, most of that list has been taken care of!
we already got X-Force Wolvie, and Hulk, Daredevil, Punisher, Bullseye, and Magneto are coming soon with new molds that are just awesome.

Now we just need a new Red Hulk, Blade, Black Panther, and Silver Surfer and we'll be good to go.

Surfer is on the list because despite the simplicity of the Johnny Storm Body working for Johnny or the Skrulls, it just dosent work for a character who needs to position his feet more articulated on his surf board. if you give me the same surfer paintjob from galactus, but give him atleast the legs from Cyclops, your golden

And Panther is listed because even though we got a new panther, its that same lame daredevil body.

Edit : Whew! So glad this posted. cause good god I thought my Internet Explorer craped out and I HATE rewriting posts, especially long ones.

Looks like it was originally a clear one to me. How do you make a plastic turn clear after the fact? Not really a customizer so I honestly don't know. I figure a clear one would be easier to paint a solid color. Then making a solid color clear

Your right and it is a clear phasing vision already which I said.
Youd have to strip down the paint on the original version which would be more work and it'd make no sense since the original version is more rare and expensive.

Nice job on the doop custom. Great idea and it turned out well.

I actually love that harness. I just crazy glued it onto him though. It felt to big.

quinten182 · 09-22-2011, 11:43 AM

Just came across 2 of every figure in the new wave, for the second time, so this time it's toyark that profits. 2 Commander Rogers up for grabs since the Xtra-23 (see what I did thar?) is for Do Boy. $10 + exact ship for him helps me make like a buck each for gas if that's cool. :P

I certainly don't hate it, I just like the Comic Pack's a little more. Just before I saw the Comic Pack version's first images, I was going to cut about a quarter to a half an inch off of the top of the sword holder things so they swords sat lower when they were in there.. the bottoms would stick out, but who cares.

I think I like the XMO version's head sculpt a little more though.

It's a Flix Trix set that everyone with a Toyark account when out and bought after seeing ludovicotek's dio's. I believe it's called "Fit Bike Co." or close to it. They're $5 on clearance at Walmart.
