MUfan97 · 03-02-2017, 08:16 AM

Btw, BBTS has the latest wave up for pre-order, along with the two packs.

Have to agree. Sometimes it's just not worth the effort to sell something that will yield you a dollar or three. Especially when ebay is involved since you'll lose half of even that just on their ridiculous fees. Just one of many reasons why my ebay days are done.

Very old. It's a Walmart exclusive that they couldn't give away for years. Now it can go for big $. Still want the shield from it, but not enough to buy the whole set.

Well, I'm sure he'd be good custom fodder for someone. That's a brand new mold, you know.

Besides, any money you get back from him is technically a bit back on your original purchase. The service bit is an issue, though, given how Ebay is being talked about here.

Yeah, I mentioned it yesterday on here. Hasbro Toy Shop has them too. Edit: They have the MCU 2 packs. I did not see the singles.

Are they going to release another Thanos? They've released him a few times already...A single, 2 pack and an SDCC exclusive...

Saw the Strange and GotG packs on eBay. More expensive of course but at least they're starting to trickle out which means hopefully they'll hit stores soon.

Commence the excitement!

no movie version though. I guess gotg thanos is close enough to work but I'd still love one.

Dude, that looks AWESOME! Lemme guess, standard 6 inch Zemo upper body, head, and skirt, with Thanos below waist, legs, and arms?

Any modification needed for the arms to fit?

Grab a TF human alliance figure and limb swap (knees down and shoulders down) with 2.5" Rocket. It's poseable (enough) and scales well.

Awesome man. Perfect fit!!!!

ukmu · 03-02-2017, 11:08 PM

Looking good JackieBoy..... also, the Zola hands and feet fit perfectly onto the Thanos arms and legs. By "fit" I mean scale well there is slight modification needed. With the open hands he can hold his little remote control looking weapon and the boots really set him off.

Alternatively one could use the new Spider-Man figure of Zola as well. We have the BAF, the Spidey and the above custom.,All three can be interchanged with little fuss. In fact, I think the Spidey arms and legs with the BAF gloves and boots is the best option. Not well articulated but all the same.

Just Zola torso and Thanos arms and legs. Fit snugly with no modifications but one could put hip and shoulder sockets into the torso for a more stable and complete figure.

You can see his BAF boots in the first pic, trust me gentlemen...they really set it off. Worth it in my opinion.

Here he is with Blastaar parts as well

Tried many combinations to get to the final. I will have to take a current pic with the BAF boots and glove (still need one that is why I've been dragging my feet) and at Christmas the lad got the Spidey line one which we MAY incorporate as well. His arms and legs would look even better than the Thanos (or Blastaar) but you lose knee and elbow articulation. Not a deal breaker to me for Zola, he doesn't need to be dynamically posed to look cool. I'm still up in the air on it.

Also, you could add Thanos (or Blastaar) limbs to the Spidey torso I would image. Looking at all three side by side I don't see why it could work. At least on a "looks" perspective, the physical making it work could be different. How hard can it be? That way you can pick one up in store and add articulation if you want a cheaper option.

I like the Blastaar (or Apocalypse or Maestro) hands as it gives you an "open" option. Again, we have both the BAF torso variants so both work fine. Also we have about three or four half finished versions of our 3.75" Zola working right now. So there are a lot of options available out there. Arnim Zola is so cool.... give him a go everyone. Stay calm, make cool shit and Hail HYDRA.
