An alternative that I'd recommend trying is Quake Putty. I use it for TONS of stuff, and it might be less dicey than the hot glue route. I use hot glue for things like effects, etc., but quake putty is guaranteed not to damage or adhere permanently to anything. It's my go to product for everything from joint tightening, temporary head mounting, and avoiding domino action in your display.

Yup. I'd say about 75% of my loose collections uses Quake Hold putty in some way to stand or hold a pose. It was the first thing I tried for Spidey and Rhino, though it wasn't quite miraculous enough to pull that one off.

there are a handful of AMAZING professional customizers out there..if you are lucky enough and have some DEEP pockets you may get their stuff..(range from the $25to$50 mark to the $200to$300 mark, although those are rare and reserved for the best of the best)

Like many things in life, most of us just make due with our own skills,ideas and parts. That said, there are great guys that make ALL the parts for customs. Try google-ing names like ANGLEFORGE CUSTOMS, STAR WARS GEEK CUSTOMS, VORTIOUS CUSTOMS and a whole list of others that fellow arkers will be more insightful than myself. Welcome to the boards....

My fellow AKERS... Well, I start this year with a BANG! Found this very special item on January 1st but It just came in today. After years of searching (and as you can see I never gave up), It is here to stay! Can you say... Holy Grail!!! of the MU world...

I won't say how much and who sold it to me, sorry. For those of you like me who like to follow the numbers in the back: Regular version is 03201; Variant is 93451.













The search is not over my friends as there are 2 other holy grail figures (luke cage white tank top and black widow blonde) out there waiting for me to find them... and I believe I will someday!

[Captain Taiga]

Congrats , Never noticed how different MU Black Widow looks on the back of the card compared to the actual figure. It's like slimmer and taller.
Luke Cage also looks a bit wider or the neck wasn't meant to be as tall

just got these in today:

Has the Capt. America: TWS Toyline been released somewhere in the world? I don't think we already have those in here. Would really appreciate some pics and memos/reviews. Thanks!

[bmorr]

4" pr 6"? cause both have been released at retail here in the states.

Saw those in my local Target 2 days ago. They're kinda not worth posting pictures of... Cap looks really bowlegged because of his ball joint hips, and Winter Soldier looks a bit short. I'd say they're definitely a step down in sculpt even from the Avengers movie 3.75's. Oh, and Cap's head sculpt is just atrocious...

[Ninjinister]

Arggh the jealousy burns through me. I wanted to get all of the 3.75 Black Widows but three constantly escape me.

Sounds disappointing, haven't seen them personally yet.

Tho any one who's purchased them, I'd still appreciate some out of the package pics.

Don't hate, Appreciate.

Since I posted this it got worse. I lost on a bid on yet another Undercover Assault set D:

Hey wolvie... Well, as you very well know (and I know you do because I've learned a lot about MU from you), there's less than a handful of these produced so the possibilities are very high. I never asked you before, did you ever had the blonde one and the Luke Cage variant?

I've never had them personally but I know someone who did. He also had the Black Widow but I didn't get mine from him.

[Captain Taiga]

I think this is the only time I believed the variants were really anywhere outside of like China or something, other than now haha. Ashrok had the blond one and the white tank top Cage at the end of the video and he says something about how they were distributed kinda exclusively I think

I wouldn't ever expect to get those. I mean I've looked high and low and not even close. People at toy fairs have told me they don't exist and if I do see them rhey are fakes
