I looked at those but their heads seemed a bit too large.
I'm sure they have the exact same articulation too.

the women are ball jointed, small ball, exact same size as MU Mohawk storm. you can't beat them for the price. I'd even argue the plastic is better than recent Hasbro stuff. they do have a more comic stylized look with slightly exaggerated features, but all in all beautifully done. the guys.... eh, I do want to do something with the bomb squad punisher guy, but I don't know what. the rest are 5 poa and stuck in shit poses. if you go to Walmart.com and search the Corps there are several playsets I haven't seen in stores that look really promising for dios and accessories.

Hey guys. I know I haven't posted on here in a long time but I have been lurking. Just wanted to give a shout out to the Skeleton Warriors kickstarter. I saw that it was mentioned last week. It is coming down to the last week of the campaign. It's a cool looking figure and there are some cool customizing opportunities with the skeleton guys.

Hey everyone! I'm getting back into collecting and I wanted to know which Select figures fit well with the universe/infinite figures

I personally like the Hulkbuster to be a giant mech:




The Antman Select is nice as a Giantman version too

The females are from the corps line. A gijoe knock off line. The iron red skull is a custom.

I think the playskool hulkbuster could work as an underwater ironman suit. what do you guys think?

[Universe]

Hey Il Cattivo, does it open up?

[Il Cattivo]

yup. the front opens up when you press the torso.

here's a video review of it.

He's my battle field leader for all the army guys I got from big lots sets and other cheapo figs

I think Hasbro's Galactic Battlers Groot scales really well and looks great with the MU Guardians of the Galaxy. You can get him pretty cheap too. I paid less than $7 on Amazon!

[Autobot_Goldbug]

These say 1/16th but they are slightly smaller than Bruder 1/16th so this brand may work better.

1/16 Big Farm Peterbilt 367 semi with Grain Trailer

[Ninjinister]

Why is it so hard to find some damn accessories for this scale? Lookin' for a conical straw hat/kasa, Raiden style. Not like the Three Storms but actually like Raiden from Mortal Kombat. I thought somebody said some GI Joe ninja came with a good one but I can't remember which.

[kylactus]

^didn't the movie hard master come with one?

[deathofthelines]

Red ninjas did. Hard master had a lamp shade of death hat.

The plastic is actually a lower grade than Hasbro uses.

Articulation is the same as current MI new offerings. They have torso swivel is about the only difference. No ankle articulation and no wrist articulation. So roughly the same as Bishop's articulation minus torso swivel. Which means less articulation than the rest of MU/I and GI Joe.

I bought a set of them myself. The skull bomb squad guy is over on my villain shelf while the two female figures were customized into shield agents/troops. Painted the body armor into a metallic blue, and painted their pants black. Left the shirts alone though so they have more individual character besides the heads. The rest of the figures they came with and the dirt bike I gave away.

The super bike I painted up with the metallic blue too though for more SHIELD vehicles. Plan on getting another set of this pair for more customs or to put them in my GI Joe collection unaltered.

I do want to repaint the redheaded one into blonde though to do a Kate Leth: Agent of Shield figure. The hair style reminded me of her so I thought that'd be funny to have a writer/artist of Marvel's as an agent of shield in figure form.

Got any pics of the ladies you painted up and the super bike? I have them but not sure what if any alterations I plan to do.

I'm not seeing it in the accessories on any of them on eBay.
