Nexodusrex · 07-13-2012, 06:48 AM

well. I havent heard anything from my friend yet. here's hoping.

till then, I'm taking the time to update my Hts information so I can check out asap

evilanimation · 07-13-2012, 07:19 AM

well unless they were at preview night they have not got in yet.

shortysben · 07-13-2012, 08:15 AM

so do we have an arker that is going to be sitting in on the MU panel tomorrow? I am hoping so, so we can get some definitive answers, or be able to hear the latest news on what is going on with MU...

After seeing some great stuff in the works it will be interesting to see how they answer for the recent delay on the newest waves...

Weapon XIX · 07-13-2012, 08:16 AM

VM - awesome job on that Phoenix! What paint did you end up using? I've attempted mixing a metallic green but haven't been overly enthused with the results so far.

evil - that's a lot of Jinxes. Like, a-crazy-lot of Jinxes.

Sadisticace1091 · 07-13-2012, 08:31 AM

Hey VM, what paint are you using? The paint I'm using dries tacky...

@veronica: That namorita loks very promising!

Some custom Marvel appreciation:

Haven't done a marvel custom in a while, but it might be time to jump back in. I'm really liking John Cassaday's designs for Uncanny Avengers - maybe I'll take some of them on next...

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-13-2012, 08:44 AM

That Emma Frost.. WHY IS THERE NOT ONE OF THOSE OUT YET. And.. Is that Hope? My god, that's awesome.

1andonly5711 · 07-13-2012, 08:53 AM

is marvel universe over the comic con figures was kinda short on whats comming out?

Weapon XIX · 07-13-2012, 08:54 AM

That SquirtleSquad7. Yeah, the lack of an official release Emma Frost was really frustrating, especially after the release of the Future Foundation Sue Storm. And that is indeed Hope on a Marvel Select Phoenix base - the best Phoenix accessory to date imo.

I kind of feel the same way. My fiance' and I have already started planning a SD vacation next year, that'll be geared around SDCC, but all of these horror stories are turning me off. I might not be going now.. seems like too much hassle. I might just do the NYCC every year (until that one gets too big).

Saturday is when they reveal all the new stuff. What we're seeing now is what they've shown us concept material for at previous cons.

FinnTheHuman · 07-13-2012, 09:17 AM

Weapon XIX, that Hope is SICK

Nice, what is the recipe for Hope? She is excellent!

Sadisticace1091 · 07-13-2012, 09:45 AM

I Live in Albrightsville, close to Stroudsburg.. there is nothing out here man it blows...

denmasterprime · 07-13-2012, 09:45 AM

All the (much deserved) love your Hope is getting, I gotta say that is the best Punisher I've seen!

...and I don't even like the Punisher!
