I've been trying to resist those Hiya Predators since I've already got some old HotToys ones. But they're so much better. I had to order some.

[Ninjinister]

Are there any standard overalls-wearing characters in this scale?

[theArchivist]

Here is a figure with the overalls down. Not sure if that helps though.
Tunnel Rat - GI Joe from the 30th anniv line




There is also this prototype for Acid Rain

[Ninjinister]

Tunnel Rat's about what I would be looking for if the overalls were able to be put up? Kind of looks like it would be possible.

Just remembered this guy too. Could probably find him pretty cheap too.



he is a little shorter though

Hello all, I don't post to the boards often, but I am hoping someone can give a suggestion or two. I have been kit-bashing/lazy but customizing a Hulk army using Skaar, World War Hulk, Maestro, Hulk Ragnarock and Marvel Infinite Hulk. Now that I’ve got a good little war party together, I’m in need of something or someone to pit them against. Does anyone know of any Hulk sized 3.75 ogres, orcs (Boss Fight’s are too small) monsters etc. that I could utilize as foes for the Hulks to kick around?

[Specter]

Anyone know of anything in this scale that would work as angel wings?

That might work for at least one of my ideas! This guy might as well
1:18 Action Figure Details - Chip White

Thanks for the help!

Why is it so hard to find regular civilian-ish characters in this scale?

Marvel Universe Angel's wings or cast of his wings from Vortious Custom.

Angelforge has a set of wings.

DC Infinites Heroes Hawkman.

If all of the extraneous stuff can be pulled off easily, this actually fits one of my other ideas perfectly (or at least, the one that shows up in the post does)

Never heard of this line though. The Chap Mei stuff has been hit and miss for me to find, with a higher chance of miss.

[ukmu]

He looks like a male stripper

[Pilkster]

I love the random clamp on his leg hahahaha

derp derp... fixed the other picture.

I don't think the stuff on his pants comes off easily. They would have to be cut and painted.

Ebay is a godsend for finding some of the harder to find items. I just got a super awesome dog from the Bad Guyz line. I've almost acquired every figure Chap Mei has made. I think I'm down to less than 10 characters with the exception of the Military/Police figures because I don't collect those.

Korg, Ulik, Rhino, Abomination, etc...characters or bodies have potential for random kitbashing creatures of the Marvel Universe large bodies. There are also Venom, Gladiator, Hyperion, & Beta Ray Bill.

The Incredible Hulk movie had an even larger scale line based on the movie and video game which included Bi-Beast and Iron Clad.

Lastly, there are always the late 90's (Pre-Marvel Legends) ToyBiz 5-inch collection of assorted creatures, aliens, and monsters like the Brood, Sasquatch, etc...

[cherkhan]

@Sender, Thanks for the ideas. I was thinking about trying to mosh up Ulik, Blastaar, Wink and the Abomination figures to make a group of trolls or orcs, but my paint skills are beyond non existent

Cheers to that, I found that second one (Steel Head Mike) on eBay for less than a tenner with shipping. Although he was el blanco

Sure, Cherkhan. Your hulk squad and gladiatorial games sounds like a pretty fun idea especially since the Thor Ragnarok will be coming out this fall.
Have you caught the animated movie Planet Hulk from a couple years back? May help inspire new aliens while being a pretty good flick to watch.

So as I'm discovering a lot of you are really great photographers! I've had a hard time taking some nice shots to match the caliber of this place. But it was still fun and here's what I ended up with.

The last image is where my Boss Fight figures live day to day on top of a display case for my 1/6 Star Wars figures.

[Sender]

Those are some nice shots, BossFighter!

[Autobot_Goldbug]

oh these are 3.75"

[ukmu]

I remember seeing those MERLIN figures here in UK. They were alright, nothing special as I remember, slightly above Chap Mei standard. (Not knocking C.M. as I have quite a few myself)

Great shot BF'er and glad you came over to show some stuff. Welcome indeed. A quick thought on some cool display ideas- fish tank stuff scales really well and there is ALWAYS Greek stuff. Playmobil make some fantastic stuff that could work. Also, 1980's and 1990's wedding cake tiers used Grecian columns often that could look ace. A nice colour print of the Mediterranean Sea behind, a few columns here and there, Presto- instant, cheap badass display! (again, I suggest army building. Like I told you before- if you like one you will LOVE 15 of them!)

Speaking of army building, I posted some shots this weekend over on the Marvel 3.75 thread. Not to be a thread who're but I will post them up on here as well. I had been banging on about the A.I.M. lab for years and finally got one.
