So pretty much the same prices on line,but I don't have to pay shipping. And I can sell and trade off the extras to you guys!

I'm still might not pick this up! Who am I kidding I will! I'm a MU whore!

Yes you can.. keep me in mind.

..and I have two Iron Man light up bases.

NoodleChow · 06-28-2012, 11:22 AM

just wanted to give a quick rundown of the figures in that shot i'd posted. thanks a ton for the appreciation, fellow forumites!

Panther - cast Panther head so i could add in a right sized socket, Warpath hands, Namor body, Namor bands, and apoxie details on feet. didn't have a Bullseye at the time or maybe i did but didn't want to mod it but had started painting the Namor body to see how well the paint would hold up. also sanded his sequin hot pants down.

Widow - single carded Black Widow's head, modded forearms (gave em ankle pegs so they're swivel hinged), and her belt and stingers onto an X-23 body. used hot glue to keep the head on the body. had added indents into the tops of the sockets in the thigh in conjunction with carving away at the hips so her legs could have better range. also tried to add more torso range by carving away at the torso hole thing. had learned you could pop the torso apart with heat, basically just a socket and peg. did this for maybe all 4-5 of my X-23 bases.

SH0CKWAVE · 06-28-2012, 11:22 AM

As far as that eBay seller raking in the cake, I sincerely doubt all of the high bids are legitimate. There could be some shill bidding going on. eBay smells funny like that sometimes.

Can you do that with all the MU? Cuz I may break out of my customizing phobia if you can boil & pop torsos!

NoodleChow · 06-28-2012, 11:39 AM

nah just x-23 since she has a soft plastic upper torso so one could pop the arms out with heat too. the rest of the MU figures generally need to be cracked open. usually the best way to tell is soft solid plastic or tough hollow plastic with a potentially glued seam.

Nico247 · 06-28-2012, 11:53 AM

@noodlechow thanks for the tips!
the "super articulated " MK7 iron man isnt as super as i thought it would be click the link below my sig for my opinion.
Anyway...

I agree with most of what you have on your opinion of wave 4 but the Chitauri does have a knee joint as seen here:

Why not just share your opinion here rather than redirect us to a blog?

this is pretty much how i feel about that. also seemed the stores around me just stopped stocking the avengers stuff since the movie came out. and by seems, i mean they really haven't stocked anything. all i see are the same leftover comic series figures.

I've noticed the same thing too about 2-3 weeks ago. Just this past weekend, they've all started getting wave 3. I missed out on BW but found Hawkeye and plenty of skrulls. I think its only a matter of time before your stores start stocking wave 3.

wolvie82 · 06-28-2012, 12:35 PM

Just got these 2 bad boys from fellow asker rodimus15. Awespme bro thanks alot. Thanks for the deal

Ninjinister · 06-28-2012, 12:37 PM

If anybody is in/around Tacoma the 72nd and Portland K-Mart, of all places, has 1 Widow, 3 movie Hawkeyes, and maybe 5 Skrulls. All this after I JUST got these three in the post from ARKers, lmao. Oh well, at least I helped the rep/monetary compensation of some mates around here.

Exactly, and there are at least 15+ stores that carry the movie line in a 20 mile radius of me

Iceman · 06-28-2012, 01:04 PM

I'm sick for a couple of days and this thread moves 20 pages. I'll admit I pretty much just looked at all the pictures lol.
