3.75" custom pics are fine here. Or at least that has been my understanding. Since this is the Marve 3.75" thread, I would assume Marvel 3.75" pics, custom or posed would be right at home here.....

And Thorodinson is sending this to VORTIOUS to cast as a garage kit so WE CAN OWN IT!!!!! After the casting process he will add the detail. Eyes, eyebrows, shading, and ALL the trimmings I am sure.

He is a TOP customizor and this is just being shared as a work in progress to wet our whistle!!! He is making a Super Skrull for us that will BE AMAZING!!!!!!!! He is the first customizor that we have EVER commissioned.....


Im off to Toys R Us now!!!! Blaze has some cash for being STAR OF THE WEEK for his whole school.... they are off school this week too. Godzilla figure....here we come!!!!

We still have it. Up to you guys to use it, though:

You can also still post your Marvel customs in the general Completed or WIP forums (as appropriate).

BBTS has the new wave in stock. the one where only 3 of the figures are really worth it. Shame I preordered mine through toywiz this time. Toywiz better get theirs in soon.
Red Shehulk and Deathshead and Whirlwind are must haves

Thanks for the heads up. I ended up heading to eBay 'cause I only wanted Whirlwind and Thor.

I have a question for our UK guys here, how big are these marvel figure collection figs?
Classic Marvel Figurine Collection Special Issue 2 Â*juggernaut | eBay

if there in the right height range, has anyone ever tried cutting one up for customs, or casting a head out of one? what are they made of?

Bigger than heroclix but about half the size if not less than a Marvel Universe figure.

I was just thinking about the MI "rebrand". we got nothing good from it. the distribution is worse than ever, The "infinite" title is now even more confusing than the ever ambiguous "Marvel Universe" branding, because all of Hasbro's figures (6&3.75") are infinite! plus the random "platinum" title thrown in every now and then for no reason! but still they manage to clog the isles with yet more 5POA crap, witch is funny because the Avengers cartoon line with full articulation sold out everywhere and never restocked, but those 5POA pieces of crap are falling off of there pegs because they keep getting more cases and NO ONE WANTS THEM!
I guess there new plan is to not make enough, there by selling 100% of there product, and not having to discount any of the MI 3.75" figures. seriously though, walking down the toy Isle for the last year has felt like a trip to a third world country! a bunch of poorly painted, low articulated garbage! any 2010 toy Isle was like a damn trip to Disney compared to what's happening now.

Just got these wonderful fellas in the mail today! The crown jewel of this wave is most definitely Deaths Head.

I have to agree. I've yet to actually see avengers infinite in my area. granted I havent been to TRU. I've bought all my figures online.

[bmorr]

They're about 3" and made of metal!

[ProfessorHov]

Not one TRU in Los Angeles got the new MI wave they only got last MU wave. Only Targets and not all got the MI wave. I think wave 2 of MI will hit both this time

[En Sabah Nerd]

I know it's not related to the toys, but I figured I'd share just once: Josh Brolin will be, at least, the voice of Thanos. I know it's not toy related, and I apologize, again.
ROLLIN' LIKE JOSH BROLIN!

Agreed, not only the cards cheaper feeling and so little art, the figures themselves are a bit loose. Not sure if it really helped the line or not. Considering TRU and Target in my area hasn't even carried these. Who knows what will happen. Thank God for HTS though for sure.

Wow the paint on those looks great. I cancelled my order from BBTS cuz I was able to get a case cheaper from eBay, but the seller hasn't shipped mine. I hope they come soon, and I hope my case has good paint apps. I still haven't found a wasp.

Here is an what that Juggernaut looks like next to the MU version.

Cutting him up would be tough and he is super heavy.

[bmorr]

just something interesting to note about the new MI figures i posted.
1. red she hulks belt isn't pressed to fit and just flops around on her torso

2. Whirlwind has very little head movement

3. A positive for DH is that his shield and his two axes actually clip together as one unit and pegs onto his back. Only problem is that it doesn't do it very well.

[ProfessorHov]

Am I late to the party just saw Hasbro has wave 2 up for preorder

You can also remove DH's hands and plug the weapons into the wrists.

[kylactus]

I don't mind the lack of head movement in whirlwind, I don't think that he had much head movement in the comics or cartoons . I don't mind a lack of a specific articulation if it's accurate to a characters design.
