For me the most amazing part of the story is that you date the cashier on the same day!

Just like a modern Mike Hammer, you wrapped the case and got the girl!

I might actually have to get Bishop, for the head and accesories to add to my custom.

originally the mu waves were easy to come by,it was at the end of universe when things got a little messy.i know liverpool and london had no trouble getting the lines.but distribution of waves to the uk was very minimal.it will be the same with infinite,after so long waves will be harder to come by.

LOL you know me Ukmu...I saw this one too late, but i did contact him ..stay tuned in the next few weeks...after seeing it I was like hell..his mos likely will be better, and Ive waited how long for him, and he still is in a maybe stage..why wait another year almost for a inferior product. Ive been waiting to see a customizer do him to see what he would look like ...winner winner chicken dinner !!!

kylactus · 03-26-2015, 09:33 AM

you know the custom rule though... 5 minutes after you make buy or order one Hasbro will make sure it's on a shelf near you. I had just disassembled an Archangel to paint up an X-force version when the exclusive hit. and I had just finished painting a torso for Deathlok when he dropped. I redid an XMO Logan into Old Man Logan (figuring they'd never make such an obscure one shot character) then bam HTS has him for like a week! and I was about a day away from ordering a Vulture kit from Vort when they announced him. I'm just saying if you have my luck you'll order him then like a week later he'll be peg warming...mocking you!

ukmu · 03-26-2015, 10:03 AM

That is good Kylactus my friend..... make a Tigra then cause I would LOVE her in the collection!

I have been recommended that guy from several people and he was gonna make me a Gamora... then they announced her. Planning on ordering the 2 kits for $50 from Vort for a Hellcat and another Avenger female. i love the idea of having the perfect part cast in just the right colour so the painting is nil or very minimal and there is no paint rub. I hate paint rub!!!

5 females all Avengers are on the top of my dream custom list

Moondragon
Hellcat
Tigra
Monica Rambeau (in her whie &black Captain marvel suit)
Jocasta

these would be easy to cast in the correct colour and could be awesome.

Finishing up the S.H.I.E.L.D. army first...then Scientist Supreme for AIM, then Arnim Zola for HYDRA....then 4 Kree and a Ronan, but that wont happen anytime soon if at all. Then move on and to the females....but who knows when or if that'll happen.

Good news though.... wore a coat i havn't worn since last spring and found a £20 note in it.... gonna go and buy Black Cat just because she is kind of free now.Maybe buy a couple lotto tickets with the rest!

If I hit the jackpot then a free custom for everyone!!!!

deathofthelines · 03-26-2015, 12:06 PM

Is there a way to strengthen the ponytail on omega red? Mine feels really loose and while he'll mostly be for display I feel it might just fall off one day during a shelf dusting or if he falls over.

ukmu · 03-26-2015, 12:38 PM

All that love for those female Avengers and no Sersi or Crystal. I must be the only person who wants a Sersi figure. Maybe I'll see what I can do with an Emma figure for her (at this rate I'm going to need to buy a good dozen Emmas...)

UrsaMagnus · 03-26-2015, 03:09 PM

You're far from the only one. I love the Eternals so the more we get from them the better.

Well there was this storyline (mind you I never read it but I read ABOUT it so I might be wrong about a few things) where Superman was killed and Doomsday lost his bloodlust, gained sanity, and became Earth's protector... and then gave it all up to get Superman back. Tragic, really.

the real story is,doomsday messed up dc's goldenboy so bad,it took the collective butthurt of a 1000000000 superman fans to force dc's hand and bring superman back and retcon Doomsday.i believe history was to repeat itself when a certain superboyprime wreaked havok across dc's multiverse.great reading,shame the "fans" ruined it on both occasions.

UrsaMagnus · 03-26-2015, 05:54 PM

My own take on the picture was that Doomsday is just such a badarse that he's strong enough to overcome the hammer's enchantment.

I remember that story it was because gog kidnapped superman and doomsday spends 1000 years trying to get superman freed and he ends up creating a superman corp. A team of aliens and meta humans that go about saving the day for superman while he's gone. Really shit load of time travel mumbo jumbo lost in a sea of mediocre ideas
