Namely, the Hasbro Marvel Universe line and their 3.75” “Star Wars” figures as well. I like comic books, rock music, and the thought of somebody else in Dwight Stall’s job. Cheers.

Welcome aboard, Korg!

Some more customs for today. First is the MCU Batroc. I love the character in the comics and I think the movies did a respectable job of him.

After that are two pseudo-Marvel entries: Mr. Hyde and my version of a 50's race car driving Ghost Rider. Hyde in the comics is Hulk-sized and mine is more like the literary version, but, well, close enough.

Lastly, my favorite MCU hero...Jeffery Mace, the Patriot.

Dig them all, Villano! Nice work.

Smashing custom work as ever everyone.

Villano; don’t think I have seen these done before, 10/10 for effort and final product.

EZTOYDUDE; you must have steady hands and a lot of patience. That Drax is ace. Daredevil is nice as well.

Creator; meh.

I joke of course, always a pleasure to see your work, you never disappoint. Looking forward to seeing the wrecking crew complete. I have always thought the original bucks used were to small. They have been drawn/appeared even bigger at times... wrecking crew in hulk/thanos/juggernaut size.... that would be amazing.

Silthlord; as I already said, they all came out amazing. Well done to the spotter of those domez heads! (TheArchivist?)

Mordi; always look forward to your posts. Infrequent, but REALLY worth the wait. Lobe all the concept/ideas/process step by step and reasons. I have to be inspired in one way or another to make a custom. Film/comics/images/tv. Things have to jump at me. If it’s an easy one, I have a go myself. Anything that requires and proper skill... well... that’s what Pilkster is for!

Lordmudd; never seen or heard of the character, but it’s lovely. Any figure with wings, I really like for some reason. Probably because they are so few and far between. Am I right in assuming Hasbro only used those Angel wings on... Angel??? What a waste. This again begs the question of why the line ended. So much could be made with existing sculpts/accessories/parts. Bad form Hasbro, bad form.

Yeah, I don’t really want to create an Instagram account just to post comments that will be ignored.

More new blood, you are very welcome! Now Ultra Seven/Korg... lets see what your collection looks like. Humble or gigantic, doesn’t matter. It’s always refreshing to see people’s different take on this passion of ours.

Nothing major to report from my end. Still tweaking bits and army building. Got a whole army on the way that I don’t think anyone has done in our scale. Spent a long time trying to mix a nice hydra yellow to match the TRU 3 pack henchmen, have got it as close as I can, will get round to painting them eventually. Scored a bootleg (I assume) dragon man from China. Lovely figure. Currently revamping another room in the house (not for me this time), so the man cave/toy room has become cluttered because of that. Will have a good tidy and maybe a bit of a display update and re-shuffle once it’s done. Will mainly be more expanding armies as, well, that’s all there is to do at the moment. Have a lovely weekend team.

(Yep, I have been reading/lurking and not posting again, as usual

)

Rustyrob, mcu/film/tv villains:

Please excuse the inconsistency of photos, they are just quick snaps. I do not have the energy to edit them to look nicer. Also, imgur is being a nightmare at the moment! Anyone know why???

Thanks Oscarv with that awesome Dragonman.

Oscarv · 08-31-2018, 11:31 AM

Yes, ranting now...

Who was the lovely person that posted images of the Revoltech Ultron in this thread?? It was a long time ago, and I can’t find them anywhere.

The pictures included stills of the Avengers: Age of Ultron film (movie) as references. And it all looked spot on. Help would be much appreciated.

This comment was perfectly executed, no pun intended, directly under that hungry Dragonman figure.

I know I must've said it before but damn I loved the Wolverine line. Still bummed I never got an X2 Wolverine out of it though.
