Welps, that sucks. Come back to us soon Queen Rach! I promise to keep posting pictures of me with nerd-celebrities on facebook to cheer you up

Ugh, so close to 700 posts

How does he scale up with the other Dooms? I am not going to lie, it looks a lot better than the MU ones [body wise] and the head is...passable.

a bit smaller,but not much.

Tiberius · 09-13-2012, 04:18 PM

Smaller? Crazy! Swear it would be bigger. Hate to bother but could you do a side by side shot? [Maybe even toss a cape on him?] I may actually get him if he is cheap somewhere.

SquirtleSquad7 · 09-13-2012, 04:20 PM

Huh, I kinda want that Showdown Doom.

And Veronica Mars, I didn't really have much interaction with you, but it's sad to see someone go. I hope everything cools down for you & you can return feeling good about this place again. I haven't been here long enough to know what it was like before some anger, but I hope it gets better. :]

Sounds like you need a break.. but to be honest.. I dont see any problems besides the same few people being pissclams every so often.

If it seems cliquey I think that just stems from a group of people who post a lot more than most. Not a bad or malicious thing.. just what naturally happens to people of simpilar habits and styles.

Ok.. someone owes me .50 for my dime store psychology.

Check out my custom thread if you're interested! Don't want to post them all here to slow you down, but I'm updating with pics of my new Loki, Giant Man, and Hawkeye! Love to hear what you guys think.

Man, I do not give a hoot about Quasar but I think your custom is off the chain! Great work!

I also wish this place would cool it on the drama. I like it here and I avoid drama like a naked guy in a park but like Favata said, this is why we can't have nice things. Its all Hasbro's fault. If their ditribution was better, none of this would be happening.

On to better/weirder news, I finally saw the Ult Hawkeye Avengers figure at retail. It only took 6 months. Thanks Western Washington!

This really Saddens me, Sometimes it does get a little too much on here with the Keyboard warrior nonsense but too lose a good member who is contributing good content is terrible,

Scarlett and I will miss your customs while you are on Hiatus, We were going to Start a "Get VM a better camera fund raiser" so we could see your customs in pin sharp glory.

Take it easy VM and we hope you return soon

Why would it be 50 cents when it is a dime store?

Tiberius · 09-13-2012, 04:27 PM

Damn, that is quite smaller. However I only really want the arms and legs. In hopes they are the same length at least. Those legs and arms though....damn what an upgrade.

Jimmyo · 09-13-2012, 04:27 PM

I am going to make Scarlett a DoomBear Outfit for her Bear's xmas present.

We already have Sheep Fury, I made a Eyepatch and trench coat but my sewing skills are not quite ready for Doom yet lol.

D00MTR0N I love that little SHS Doom in his dressing Gown it is one of the nicest Doom figures around, I love the Mug and crocodile Slippers

The Eyes on the SHS are Scary, Doom deserves a Unique mold rather than having to share a body type with Ultron

Whenever I get around to finishing it (screening in mouth & sides, sanding the inside so it sits lower, more coats of paint, etc)...

I think I know an easier and better looking way to do it if I try again. Might be able to do multiples if it works.

Agree with you there! That's one we don't have that's not part of the MU, and I don't count the ones that are in the "Spider-Man Universe"

I understand not getting a tracking number is annoying. When I bought my Tron: Legacy Castor figure for $300 the seller didn't ship it for almost 3 weeks and then didn't give me a tracking number for almost another 2 weeks. Just because the seller is either busy or slow at getting back doesn't mean that they need to be called out.

Please ignore all my previous posts on this subject.

If I don't get the tracking # and or do and I haven't receievd it by the ebay estimate, than it's Ebay dispute time!
