Can't wait to see the stuff you dream up!!!


What are some ideas of stuff to make? I know that the Thanos throne is in the works but what else? I like the cool little things in last years SDCC, The Collector's Vault. I think smaller items are a bit more efficient than the larger ones for cost purposes, I could be wrong though. Just curious to see what ideas people can think of.

I would like to buy some laboratory glass equipment. Beakers, flasks, condensers coils. Just your typical mad scientist set up. Little Bunsen Burners and all.

A nice Infinity Gauntlett holder like Thanos has in the end credits. Trying to think of other small items of historical interest that were key to major stories throughout the years. It is however, 5:20am and I am drawing a blank.

What do you guys think....

I'd probably make a Kang chair if I had one(sorry to that dude making them, the price is just too high for me).


That's probably the only MU thing I'd make, though.

I dont make anything on these thrones. no money is given to me. the price is $60 which I pay the company Shapeways which then gets delivered to me and it then gets delivered to you at standard cost of $11

I charge the small fee of $25 to assemble sand and paint which is a lot more work than most customs I make. the thing is huge it was smaller and cheaper but the majority of the first group wanted it bigger so it adds to cost.

and It cost to get the 3D model designed. you cant just see something you like on the net and go oooo ill print that lol what ever you suggest you need a STL file to print.

So its ok suggesting all these things. unless you know how to work with 3D design software or have a designer to make the design then all you can print is STL files that are out there. and trust me Ive looked, There are no 3.75 specific things.

Im not ranting just explaining I started the chair project for the fellow collectors, I offered them the same cost as I got mine hence why Im doing the throne. If people want in then fine if not you are welcome to try get the specified items other ways and see the costs rack up too.

Hmm, I see your point. I was more saying that the price was a bit too high for me due to financial state, though. I mean, I recently got a Toy Story Collection Woody for $30, and that was very high for me.

So apparently a few members here have an issue with me with how I built my collection and how I still build my collection. So what I thought I would do is let you all know so you can judge, moan, slag me off behind my back and maybe “bring a lump to your throats”

I started collecting a few years back when I first starting buying my figures from eBay. I was instantly addicted but the figures were getting more and more expensive. So I decided to get all my paints out from back when I used to collect and customize WWE figures. Now back then money was coming for customs thick and fast as I found a little corner in the market by making classic wrestlers before the classic line was released which helped my buy a brand new car out right NOT make car payments (so facts need to be right before telling tales) now by telling someone this does that make it bragging about it???

Anyway back to MU, so I started making customs and selling them on eBay and using the cash (not my cash, but cash from the custom figure sales to buy more MU figures) I then met a few collectors on Facebook that liked my work and asked me to make more and more customs for them. I then discovered Toyark, MUCC and got chatting with fellow UK collectors who introduced me around to the wider collectors around the world which helped me build a little network. Some of you guys I talk to everyday using Facebook or WhatsApp etc. others I even visit quite often and call close friends and have even left their children with my family and vise versa.

During my time here and other forums, I’ve sold, traded, given away customs, dioramas, chairs, accessories to many a people. I pride myself on being fair and helping as many people as I can with stuff they have wanted and needed. I’m sure most people that have dealt with me can vouch for me and our dealings since its mostly repeated deals.

Now there seems to be a problem with a few things about me.
One is that I have acquired a “free” collection by doing these trades and sale. I dont think by not spending my own money is against any law??? Trading customs and other figures or using the money from customs sales is NOT gaining a free collection??
Second is that I treat these boards like my own personal sales post. Yes I do post my customs alot along with other pics of figures because its called a MARVEL UNIVERSE 3.75 appreciation thead. The customs I make for myself or others are apart of theirs and my 3.75 collection. I also post offers and deals to let the people who buy from me know what’s happening.
Most now use my dedicated Facebook page to see what deals and new stuff I’ve made but I still involve the people here that don’t have Facebook. And I WILL continue to do so unless an admin tells me to stop.

As for this bollocks that “I rip people off” to get my FREE collection I’ve not heard any complaints. My customs are a lot cheaper than most and yes my work isn’t at the higher standard of some but if you want that standard go and pay those prices. I don’t get any complaints and I get more requests so it can’t be that bad.

I’m guessing if the line is dying a lot of people will be going down the custom route but I’m guessing that will bother the people with the problems too..

I guess what I’m trying to say is if you have a problem with me, then PM me instead of slagging me to people over PM.

Also the other who slagged me has no issues constantly asking for stuff and offering me shit in return. Yes you know who you are and Im guessing you wont be getting what you keep asking for either.

So feel free to discuss ignore comment slag me off, I dont care but I thought Id share and let the 2 know Ive seen the messages you keep mentioning me in

[Pilkster]

Also I aquire alot of figures during trades for custom work alot are rare, again I dont sell these to anyone. I offer a trade to help people out.

Alot of members from accros the pond offer to help me with newer stuff as I help them or they are happy to trade for custom work, is that ripping them oof to while Im building my free collection???

No one is obligied to help anyone with anything here, That doesnt make them bad people so I dont understand why the threads need constant negativity about what they do and dont do and what the 6" collectors do and dont.

[Pilkster]

Rant over hahaha

Sorry everyone

I get that I just wanted people who would like it in the future to know that its not price

Didn't know there was a new Falcon. I thought the Gatchaman inspired suit from Avengers Assemble season 2 was interesting, can't say the same with this new one though. MCU version from Cap 3 is also pretty cool. A tactical type Falcon was an outstanding update to him complete with a drone.

Anyone got a silver samurai for trade?
