Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

I'm no customiser, but I don't think I could harm a Papo figure, they just look too awesome. They may lack articulation but damn the details are amazing.

back on track, if that International Patriots 3 pack,gets clearanced, let me know and i'll make it worth your while if you'd be so kind enough to snag me one

Wow. Now I like both of those figures. Might end up.doing this. Was there any mods made? Or just a clean swap?

It kinda reminds me of 2 other gorillas, the 1 from the Hellboy line, and the 1 from mcfarlane's line, poacher I think the character was called.

Granted, he's pretty lacking on the articulation still but with a little creative sculpting I think he could maybe work.

I think you mean Cy-gor from the spawn line mate?? Poacher was the huge pissed off elephant from Total Chaos series two. Would the gorilla from the DCIH's line be any good for this Ken Hale character?? I think he has a beret,but Brian at OPP has an amazing custom cast gorilla head to replace it with.......

Boca Toys R Us is stocked with Avengers. Coral Springs didn't have anything. Boca had a bunch of Legends and Coral just had an Iron Man. Neither had series 2 of the light up figures. Did grab 2 zombie vipers though. No new MU at either also.

Nice score on the Z-vipes...I am still in need of three..cept my TRU has 100 gi joes on the pegs but they are all Iron Grenadier and Wave 2 Commander...so itll never get anything new in...

D00MTR0N · 02-20-2012, 06:38 PM

shit,is sub zero that htf or valued that no one can part with him for 3 to 4 MU figures?

vampireheart · 02-20-2012, 07:02 PM

Hey D00MTR0N you got the old Secret Wars toy line Dr Doom Figure?

I would even pick up doubles of Namora to repaint as a New Warriors Namorita.

As for Jimmy Woo, I'm holding out for the MIB 3 line. There will be dudes in suits at retail! With ties, not like that hipster no-tie-in-a-suit Brad Cooper figure from the A-Team.

I'm also holding out for the Captain America figures to go on clearance. If I can get the pack for under $10 bucks, I may army build to make my own kree soldiers.

The $2 Cap clearance we had here in Canada was pretty sweet. There was tons of stock on the pegs and within a week it was gone pretty much everywhere. I got myself all the worthwhile figures and a grip of Hydra soldiers for less than $25. Makes me wonder if Wal-Mart down there will do the same thing.

positive thinking promotes positive results, bro.

you attract what you project. keep telling yourself "i will..." and next thing you know, you will.

the Universe is your genie. \m/

My Heroic Age/Fear Itself Avengers/New Avengers team!

(Of course, Ms. Marvel is missing, and Dr. Strange should be wearing a trench coat.)

And, here's a closeup of Iron Fist and Daredevil! I love both of these figures, I just got them recently.

And for good measure, here's Bullseye! This buck is good for these figures, Hasbro should use them more often, IMO.
