That's quite the score! Congrats!

Yeah, I read the series that way too- but my roomate was the one collecting it, so when I stumbled on the brick on Amazon for $60 (40% off) I had to treat myself.
Man! Once you know who is screwing over who and serectly working for who, the series takes on a much deeper nuance- like Kracken's motivations...Hell, just the throwdown between Osborn's gang and Daisy's team is worth the price of it- seeing sixteen year old Yo Yo beat Bullseye into a bloody pulp...and the depiction of Ares is THE BEST. Anyone that loves Ares need to read that series!
I cant wait for Hickman to take over Avengers! I'd bet real money we see more of the secret history of the MU!

Here: Some Secret Warriors MU Appreceation:

Daisy, Nick and Dum Dum at The Dock.

Gott finish Yo Yo's paint and post her next- then on to Pierce, Stonewall and Phobos!
Check Jimsloth's impossibly perfect Phobos custom in the Customs Completed gallery- he's so cool that he cast the head for me and everything!

Those comic-colored Hydra goons really are fantastic figures once you lose the silly harness give them a slight black wash and a custom Hydra emblem!

just finished a custom for Denmasterprime. Justice from the New Warriors.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Jason Abbadon · 07-23-2012, 02:06 PM

Very cool custom- that whole team went into Marvel Limbo- and to think, Justice, Firestar and now Namorita are all around...could be reunion time!

usagent27 · 07-23-2012, 02:09 PM

Thanks!

Ha! The Real Ghostbusters...of Evil!
That's gotta be a beast of a thing to have shipped- does it come apart or something to lay flat?

It's pretty cool for MU- you need to do two things with it though- repaint it into more ralistic colors and put the new Punisher on the roof with a sniper rifile!

FancyPants · 07-23-2012, 02:14 PM

I agree, that's a sweet house. I like OVs with the custom sign. That's pretty slick

Tarooster · 07-23-2012, 02:15 PM

My moe set still hasn't shipped from hts and i ordered it on Thursday, dammit.

I got mine 2 days later. Was probably the fastest ship I
ve gotten

Is anybody lookin for a variant iron spidey? I've still got one

Reaver Strike · 07-23-2012, 02:25 PM

I ordered the ML and MoE on Thursday as well and when I called today they were in processing from the warehouse.

Does not come apart. I looked at it and tried to see if I could disassemble it but I didn't want to risk breaking any pieces. The original toy came assembled like that, so that's how I left it. Pretty big box lol

It can't have been bigger than the SDCC galactus u sent me, now that was a big ass box my friend

Veronica Mars · 07-23-2012, 04:31 PM

Added some details to my Black Widow

Head, arms, lower legs and holsters from Scarjo, Torso from MU BW, sculpted her zipper, belt and belt buckle as well as fusing the torso at the waist

trekking95 · 07-23-2012, 04:48 PM

Not bad but the neck looks way too long!

Veronica Mars · 07-23-2012, 04:52 PM

I think it's the angle I took the picture at, I hollowed the head out a little so it would sit lower on the neck

BAD MOON · 07-23-2012, 05:07 PM

he is pictured with moon knight on the back of the box so maybe there is still hope..

wolverine2281 · 07-23-2012, 05:21 PM

man, I can't wait to score all of the new 2 packs

Tarooster · 07-23-2012, 05:23 PM

Is that colossus the one from the xmen box set or the single carded one?

it's the same mold body from the x-men box set, but with a flat gray paint instead of silver. i think it looks kinda bad. i bought the set for the unmasked juggernaut because nothing can stop the juggernaut not even my broke wallet!

He's not painted. He's molded in that crappy flat silver/grey color. At least mine is...

Helps Hasbro cheap out, less paint apps....

Plus, no helmet for Juggs is kinda crappy too.
