Very cool! Are you going to try to sculpt a head?

KjK · 09-15-2013, 06:14 PM

Just a new dio I'm working on.

Avengers Customs

For a photo shop project

Nice Moondragon, Tigra, and Jarvis. They better make a Tigra in that avenger line. I saw a custom sell on ebay for 160 dollars.

Thats a good idea, I have an extra thing now I think I'll make a fear itself thing. My WW hulks left thigh always pops off so now I'll have an excuse to get a new one.
That tigra is awesome KjK, I miss that old female buck, it was way more poseable than the newer one.

KJK- I love the shots, who is tempting MJ with pizza outside the pizza joint in the first photo? It kind of looks like Dr. Venture wearing a purple jumpsuit.

It most likely is Venture Bros. Dr. Venture 3 3/4-Inch Figure - Bif Bang Pow! - Venture Bros. - Action Figures at Entertainment Earth

That set has gotten a lot of mileage on these boards. Quite popular and yet still relatively easy to pick up, IIRC.

You are correct. I'm a huge fan of the show. The figures, Not so much.

I had been looking for the spawn set for years at a decent price.
I finally found it at a con for $20 complete about a year ago.

My LEADER figure came in today. Skrull avengers comic figure body with a new head sculpt. It works, it fills a void in my collection, I'm big into gamma folks and hulks. The figure could be customized easily by you guys and made into something truly rad. Just off the top of my head, battle suit cobra commander, leader head, paint.

Anyway, I'm happy with him tonight, that's all that matters.

Leader love.

Side shot head testes.

That's an excellent choice of gun for the leader! Now I must search my gun bins haha.

MADREVJACK · 09-16-2013, 07:54 PM

Thanks BADMOON. I been saving it for just the right guy. I think I found him.

wylde bil · 09-17-2013, 08:51 AM

took a human torch body and a reed 2 pack body, took the arms and legs of the reed and added them to the arms of the torch body then popped on a head of the 3 pack reed to finish it off

figured reed can make his hads bigger so i took the legs for around the hands lookin into something for bigger hands

this is hilarious and brilliant modding at the same time. great idea, man.

Rattrap Primal · 09-17-2013, 12:58 PM

with the going to a more Avengers focus, at least we have Avenger characters to see figures of (from the main team both 70's and mid 90's and 00's members, Black Knight, Noondragon, Sersi, Tigra, Starfoz, Manta Ray, Mantis, Swordsman, Death Cry, Firebird, Justice, from the Mighty team Ares, from the current team Sunspot, Cannonball, Hyperion, Smasher, Shag Chi, from the remaining classic members Ant Man (both Hank Pym and Scott Lang), Wasp, from the Uncanny team Rouge (modern look), and villains in Immortus, Count Nefaria, Super Skrull, even use the Asgardian set in the Avengers line (since Valkayre was in the Secret Avengers, Scourge/ Executioner was part of the Masters of Evil, and well, Thor)

spade · 09-17-2013, 02:30 PM

I'm wondering since the 2 packs and 3 packs are going away will they increase the wave size for the Avengers brand. Or basically what will be a wave size.

KjK · 09-17-2013, 02:58 PM

I think you mean Moondragon, Starfox and Sting Ray, definitely hope we get one or two a wave with the iron men.
I am really hoping they use this kind of reasoning with the new branding and realize kids won't care.

I believe it's from a power team elite base set that jcpenny.com offered a few years ago.

Got my case in today from BBTS. 2 Cloaks and 2 Abominations. Damn.

Kernel · 09-17-2013, 08:10 PM

^ same here, 2 abominations, 2 cloaks... What a bummer. Oh well I'll have some extras for some local arkers. I'll have to hunt for dagger and a bomb... Thanks to that hulk agents of smash I'm gonna think of Chris from Family Guy every time I look at a bomb.
