Any body able to confirm Puck's articulation? I was just looking at the pics and he looks like he has hip and ankle articulation but not knees. Also is the snowbird a repaint of Falcon's Redwing? Hmmmm.

Just thought I would share so y'all could appreciate it.

I've been waiting for Black Bolt a long time. I hope we get some pics to see what kind of quality we are looking at. Looks like we are getting a complete Illuminati now. Black Bolt will be top of my want list for the year along with Prof. X and Beast.

its hard to believe I only want kang out of all the figures coming out this year,at least I can save money.

LapuLapu · 02-12-2012, 10:39 AM

Wooohooo!! Im back, took a little break since its been dry as the desert here in regards to anything new related to MU.
Finally found the DD/BE at a target at retail along with QS/WM , picked up the DD/BE came to about 19.96 with tax, well atleast its not more than 20. So it took retail here about 2 months for this wave to hit so come April ill see the Mister Sinister CP wave , hopefully.
Awesome customs and WIP , I saw while I was backtrackin thru the million pages unread , lol.
So stoked about the new figures announced comin out this year. Man I knew it that Puck would come out with Snowbird , and I highly doubt that it will be a repainted Redwing , cause Snowbird is supposed to be an snow Owl?? Im going to get me some Ewoks , Jawas and Yoda to keep Puck company.
Also picked up two more movie Hydra troops which will bring me to 7 and another red hand ninja that makes it the fifth ninja and call it done anymore than that and I risked provoking the seething wrath of the Wife , ouch.

from glassmancustoms on ebay. He makes sick casted parts and limited, like 10-20 max, think IM had 10 made, I was lucky enough to score 1, he has unmasked deadpool, christopher reeves superman, arnold from Predator etc.

glassmancustoms | eBay

Deadpool, along with redskull will be next ones I order, $10-11 shipped total for a small head may seem pricey but you have a 1 of a kind figure afterwards.

shortysben · 02-12-2012, 10:49 AM

hey I have a question for everyone...how does one get those DOPE backdrops for their MU figures? I saw one comes with the Select Deadpool, and I was about to get it ($21.99)...kinda steep just for the backdrop he comes with...does anyone have ideas as to where I could get better prices on these backdrops?

I actually have that figure. I'm going to give it a try.

Odd that there's no Black Knight pics/news.

I say no. I've been there before and I hate it when I finish a good custom and then come to find that hasbro is releasing him/her soon. Save the base figure for another custom. You can always modify blackbolt when he comes out.

NEVER!

Indeed a nice custom. Now where is the flying horse???

Sweetness. I can't wait to see the finished result. Did you just drill in the holes for the arm pegs? I'm contemplating doing something similar but making the spider-man doppleganger.

Here's the finished (New) Dark Avenger Spiderman

And yep, just as Symb. said, I (carefully) drilled holes into his upper ribs and upper back. The arms are fully posable and removable.

I have the Marvel Select Deadpool, and you're right the backdrop is awesome, with all the bullet shell casings lying everywhere. As far as alternatives, a lot of ML and MS bases will work, there's tons of ML bases that have sentinel pieces or damaged scenes.

There's a company called AFD action figure displays that makes some amazing ones but they're around the same price, but check them out

Figure 8 – Action Figure Displays : Panels on Pages

Here's a link on how to make your own
How to Make Custom Action Figure Backgrounds - Custom Action Figure Displays

basically just google search some good images, print them on a decent printer glue the image to a thicker card and make the slight bends where you want and whalla.

I fully support this Battle pack. Also, the accessory for this pack must be the intestines of Annihilus to recreate this epicness:

Has double jointed knees it looks like, so not the original. Might be a new one though. Looks like it has thigh cuts but it's hard to tell. Otherwise it might be the target one.

BigHanksCustoms · 02-12-2012, 02:39 PM

Black Widow says Try me.......

Love that Robo-Cop too!
