Not.

Well, $15 is a reasonable price just to avoid hunting a figure you really want to get. $40 is not.

Thanks.
Might pick him up later, don't mind less articulation because I have a few good Iron Man figures already but want one that looks better scale with other characters.

You know what I noticed... these figs are in no order, they are not numbered so as a MOC collector I don't like it because how do I organize them? In what order? IDK...




Got the rest today from BBTS.

Yeah, I'm having second thoughts myself...

[kylactus]

I like the no numbers thing, don't have to rebuy the same figures over and over again to satisfy my anal retentive need to have continuity.

Don't he's crap. He's short and blocky. He doesn't look good next to mu figures.

He's actually bulky, but the other day in a forum someone buy him and make a custom of the Marvel Now black and gold armor Iron Man, the figure looks ten times better than the original, so if you're going to do that buy it but if not, just don't.

[Specter]

Thanks guys.

[ukmu]

Down to just a small handful of figures left to get to complete the current collection. Very very stoked about that.
Now, it is time.the think.about display..... Wanting something different. Have some.sizable armies going as well. What I was thinking was building box like shapes and making mini dioramas of each army and team and then attaching the boxes to the wall.
What do you guys think? I don't want just figures on a shelf, and a full diorama is out of the question due to space..... any ideas?

I use the movie FF Fantasticar for the MU FF, and the size is almost perfect. I can't see a better one being released.

I also use the movie A-Team van for Punisher, but unlike the Fantasticar it's not a great sub as they missed the opportunity to have a back-opening van with decent space.

I have the same issue myself. Seen some beautiful creative dios in the pics on various MU threads. I think the idea of having mini sectioned displays is deffo the way to go.

your trying to find a middle ground i assume. build mini dios on a shelf then.

Built in shelves for my home office design - Retro Renovation

here's a cool Idea, I don't know how much construction you want to get into, but this'll certainly save space, for more ideas google "inset wall shelves"

[ChuckSass]

I really enjoyed Wasp. her body is a little disproportionate but whatever, she's great.

I also appreciate how quick these guys come outta the packaging. I had Roge's arm pop off when i took her out and my Mockingbird was warped.

I hate when that happens! I finally got around to opening up jubilee (I was lucky enough to stop by the disney store right after they stocked that case so I found a non derpy one) and her right leg was really warped, I straightened it out some. I was really careful with her, didn't let the kids play with her (sure they wouldn't want to anyways) cuz of all the horror stories I've heard of her limbs snapping off.

I thought it was great until the wallpaper went up. who puts up wallpaper in the 21st century. I thought it was a dying/dead trend.

[ukmu]

Wallpaper is all the rage now..... don't you read DECORATIVE DESIGNS MONTHLY.....

Those are pretty cool ideas, but I was thinking more of.... picture a milk crate, right. Turn it on its side so the opening is facing.you. Now, remove the "top" section so you have two sides and a floor. This is what I was planning on making out of wood. Just draw and paint a nice little background for each. Like a laboratory scene for A.I.M. an outer space science for my skrull, the Danger Room for the X-Men. That sort of thing. Then just simply attach.them.to the wall with some.screws.

At least, that is my plan I think. I have racked.my brain for a year to figure out the figure display.

[kylactus]

depending on how deep you make them they might eat up some floof space if they stick out. the thing I like about insetting shelves is you can wire in lighting, and I agree that wallpaper looks like a country kitchen shat on the wall, It was just an example.

[ukmu]

The inset is far superior, but that is a major job. Demolition and basically stripping it back and if wired means running electrical wire and all sorts. Besides, they are too thin. I want at least a foot out from the wall. Need space for all of our vehicles for our armies too. Of which I think we are up.to 7or 8, including players for "bases" and such. Most will hang from.the ceiling. But our huge HYDRA army has several ground assault vehicles. Speaking of the HYDRA vehicles, just waiting for a few.more parts to arrive from Greece and then can complete them and post pics.....

[ultraman zoffy]

For the folks asking about AA Iron Man, don't buy it. Get the MU series 1 Iron Man figure instead. Same exact figure, but with way better paint and ankle articulation.

[Ninjinister]

My local Fred Meyer has the new Infinite line. I nearly shat myself. They didn't have the last 4 waves of MU and they never get anything until like 3-4 months after everyone else anyway (my comic shop usually gets everything first and THEY didn't even have them yet). No Wasp, but I've pre-ordered a case of the next wave so I don't really have to worry about that. I picked up Hulk 'cause he's not in that case. $10.99 is hard to swallow for these now, though :|

Why the hell does Hyperion have two gun-holding hands?

[kylactus]

anyone know if Captain America 2 is getting a second wave? i'll be a little pissed if we don't get a mandriod, falcon, black widow, or shield uniform cap with mask.

[snake5289]

The only other figures I know of coming out are Falcon and WWII Cap (again). Haven't heard of any others.
