He used MAGIC! Awesome sir ReIssue

ReIssue · 12-30-2016, 07:40 PM

Thanks guys!
Snake: He was made up of a ton of different parts! Head is from a rise of cobra Gen Hawk with sculpted hair, cobra commander, a random ninja, Anakin sky walker, a sculpted belt and a valor vs Venom Mindbender cape!

Covering, do you happen to still have the packaging? I'm thinking it may be a variant. The hair appears to maybe be a slightly different piece, like the three different Bucky wigs. ( I only knew of two until RAF showed me "longer hair" Bucky.

Damn good job! Even if Hasbro had made one I doubt it would look that good. Still wish they had though.

The packaging is gone there was no other difference other than her hair and the fact her armor has sloppy paint in some spots. Im betting she a factory error probly the last fig of the night that made it thru or something like that.

She's a toy she supposed to be played with!

I was about to make a comment about the poor kid chained to the press not taking pride in his work after looking at the paint... from the angle of the pic it looks like the hair has slightly different proportions... but it may just be the angle. When lookig for variants, some barely noticeable, like just a different shade of red, or a light paint wash, or different gloss coating, the easiest way to be sure is the imprinted code on the card. The last one I found was the 3.75 legends Black Panther with slight variations in the gloss.

The wrist hinge is a bit ugly, but otherwise, this is awesome! Definitely better than what Hasbro would likely give us.

Hmm, I actually like it better that way.

Im honestly surprised the eye looks so good

Anybody interested in the packaging for the SDCC exclusive Collector's Vault? Decided I'm removing the figures and then getting rid of it since it's pretty massive.

LordMudd · 12-31-2016, 03:19 PM

Just knocked this one out.

CCC.

Is the interior relatively solid or does it fold out flat?

CCC.

MUfan97 · 12-31-2016, 05:15 PM

Every time I put a new figure's packaging into a box in the closet, I secretly wonder: Is this the point where one could consider me a hoarder?

kylactus · 12-31-2016, 07:30 PM

^Depends... is it next to jars of urine and toe nail clippings, and every issue of National Geographic sence November 1974?

By the way it's about time to dust off your debit cards boys and girls, the new wave is up on eBay in hand by US sellers!

It could fold out flat, but the figures are held in by plastic trays that are more difficult to fold.

I'm really looking forward to Jessica Jones the most. The 1st wave of every year seems to not get me excited much.

It doesn't look like Target will be carrying anymore comic packs either. My store is already clearancing them out. They never made it past wave 1 anyway.

...You're legit making me wonder if anybody can keep track of the past 25 years of their hydration...

Been working for the past few days on an AIM Scientist Supreme custom, and considering how, beyond a few touch-ups, I think this is all the work I'm gonna do on him for the rest of the night, I figured why not show him off a little before completion?

Wasn't gonna outline the front flap and color the belt buckle originally, but his color scheme was starting to feel a little bit unbalanced.

Also, this figure's right leg seems to be oddly breakable. It broke at both the thigh swivel and the ankle. Fixed both with a safety pin piece, but I lost the piece for the thigh, so I just glued it in place. Is that a common issue with the Infinite series rerelease of Star Lord?

Autobot_Goldbug · 01-01-2017, 09:03 PM

you used yellow paint?
you're braver than I thought

ukmu · 01-01-2017, 11:52 PM

Did you paint the black with a roller??!!??

Just kidding. Coming along nicely and good on you. I know it takes a lot of courage to show stuff off with the level of talent around here. And yellow is one of the hardest, if not THE hardest.

LordMudd · 01-02-2017, 12:02 AM

Depends on how you do it. I usually put on a white undercoat.

CCC.

Actually, I used a thumbtack on the front flap.

I'm a bit too edgy for that.

Or stupid, take your pick.
