Jackieboy · 07-22-2022, 08:49 PM

Diamond select apocalypse, oh yes.
in relation to SDCC?
Did anyone ask if hasbro where going to start producing fully articulated 3.75" marvel figures again?

Jackieboy · 07-22-2022, 08:55 PM

regarding the sentinel customs some of you guys are looking to create.
you can always wait for the carded retro sentinel to be released.id imagine that head will work well provided its on a ball joint.
that haslab galactus is a work of art. anyone here who bought it did the right thing, its glorious.

I'll expect local comic stores to have him in stock.he will work with the BAF and the MU version.
No 3:75" related questions asked at con,I'd have asked why did they think it was a good idea to do "restricted" retro figs? When they already had a winning formula in MU.

Fantastic Villano!

How's the custom (Zurg) Sentinel coming, Kernel?

Nice Marrina, Villano!

My sentinel is dead in the water, head was way too small but it’s going on my retro iron man until I can get one appropriately sized

Yeah I might get a few of those retro sentinels

Speaking of galactus did anyone get the heroclix one? I wonder if it scales to 3.75”

Still trying to source that heroclix shuma,lol.havent seen Galactus in person.
I'm going to see if the head is compatible with some overwatch figs I got a while back for some alternate sentinels.i should post a pic they look surprisingly good with MU about the same height as the movie versions in the future battle part of DOFP.

Julian · 08-01-2022, 09:51 AM

Got it, great figure. I’ll post on FB.

Ninjinister · 08-01-2022, 05:05 PM

Other than the fact that people like Dinos…it is an actual Marvel character that probably scales with 4 inch. Not my jam though.

Instead of Heroclix, get the Star Wars Rathtar cheap on ebay.
Heat it with a hair dryer and use a knife or scissors to cut the teeth out and insert a ping pong ball.
After that, it's just painting to get a bigger, better Shuma Gorath.

Gotta take pics but the head from the retro line Storm looks GREAT on the classic MU Storm body!

Agree. Same with Ms Marvel.

I was wondering about that. I wanted to use the retro Magneto's head (and cape) but wasn't sure how well it would fit.

Yeah I saw the comic with the dino spidey a day after I posted the question.

I wonder which superhero has the most variants? I think it's legit Spidey with all the Spider-verse creations, but I'm not 100%.

Very nice! Love the X figs.

I really need to finish this batch. I've had bits lying around for over a year now...starting to bug me.

Fresh Monkey Fiction the company that does Eagle Force has recently leaned heavily into making heads for their figures that are very obviously likenesses of famous actors, celebrities, and characters. Everyone from Super Mario Brothers to Arnold to Keanu to Obama to Ronald Reagan to Charlie Brown. Just showed a Coyote figure on faceback that is almost a perfect Chadwick Boseman. So if you need an unmasked head for your Civil War MCU Black Panther - it’s coming - not sure how much longer FMF is going to be able to make these heads until some celebrity or their heirs decide they don’t like it.

Hah, retro 3.75 Ghost Rider with motorcycle? Why was it not possible during Marvel Universe run?
