shortysben · 03-09-2012, 09:16 AM

SoundWave88 · 03-09-2012, 10:23 AM

Nah, just joining was enough. Toyark is a little like AA, in that regard. My comment was an old-school Horror/Sci-Fi reference:

I figured you'd "appreciate" it, considering your collection.

There is a way to fix it so that it will still move. I used a small screw and stuck it inside. I did use a small drill bit to pave the way before screwing in the screw. Or the easy way is to use pins.

Can you elaborate a bit more or link to some pics of this being applied? I've had a few bad wrists on some figures lately.

Not sure if it has been done but I did little modification to the blast part for Havok. Tho you have to remove his hands to fit it on I think it looks hell of a lot better what do you guys think?

It does look better.

BigHanksCustoms · 03-09-2012, 11:43 AM

I am a little out of the loop on current trends, but doesn't Havok's blast emanate from hos chest?

I think a little magnet embedded in his chest and a nail head at the base of the blast effect.

That would rock, but what you did was a huge improvement.

Iceman · 03-09-2012, 11:45 AM

It's his hands. The movie made it the chest though.

The movie? LOL.

I think it was from his chest in the '80s comics.

Optimus Vader · 03-09-2012, 11:59 AM

I heard it was from his butt.

Kayo83 · 03-09-2012, 12:25 PM

I believe he can blast through his chest/hands and even his butt like Optimus Vader said

Scythe · 03-09-2012, 12:28 PM

It's just expelled out of him in small doses of mediocrity.

LORD MARVEL · 03-09-2012, 12:28 PM

hands and chest

Technically, if he doesn't actively control it, Havok's power can come from anywhere on his body (which is how he got his code name). In the comics, he usually channels it through his arms. The movie made it his chest.

In both continuities he originally wore a containment suit to help him control and channel the energy (both direction and output), but in the comics he has learned to control it on his own. The chest emblem on his uniform only measures his power level reserves.

Either way, that custom is a lot better than having it look like it's coming from the back of his hands.

Symbiote · 03-09-2012, 01:48 PM

Anything is better than the reused mu blasts. That mod does look good. Bighankcustoms offers a good mod for the chest blast. I'm thinking of doing that for iron man.

Why does anyone even care?? Havok is even lamer than Cyclops,its no wonder Daddy killed mommy in an airplane accident,then ran away to join the Intergalactic Village People as Gay Pirate#1,having those two lame-asses around would drive anyone to the other side of the universe,i bet Corsair wished Forge and Black Tom Cassidy were his sons,just so they could compare gay moustaches all day long!!!!

I like it. An effect like that might look good with Magneto and Hydra Man (if they make him) as well as others.
