Same for the 3 and 3/4 inch Ant man from the new Ant man movie ?

Hey Terry!!! The only thing I ever got in Canada was some syrup and a rash! All these years later and I still have both!

Just booked our cinema tickets for Age Of Ultron on 22nd April!!! Can not wait! No spoilers, I did however see someone talking about War Machine and Falcon toys being out so they must be in the film and someone was butt hurt about spoilers on that. I also saw Iron Patriot in the toy isle in AoU packaging. Maybe since the studio has Spidey rights they can put Norman in the suit now. Any way I see the toys as clues not spoilers.

I also saw Benedict Cumberbatch signed on as Dr. Strange. That should please my wife who is in love with him. Plenty of eye candy for the ladies Avergers 3 pt. 1&2 when it drops. The MUC is really heating up! In a way it is good that X-Men and Fantastic Four got left behind because Marvel would have just leaned on them and we wouldn't have the exciting line-up we have coming in the future now. I am pretty sure if Disney had rights to Wolverine and Spidey we would have NEVER saw a Guardians film. Change is good.

@JamarMiller..... I have not heard of pre-orders for the movie line figures. They are not really being taken serious by collectors so big toy e-tailers are not bothering. Most of the mass market stuff was not even shown at Toy Fair...just yesterday a new 6" set snuck in on us! When the 3.75" movie line came out it was news to us as we seen it first hanging on pegs in a pic, no word from Hasbro.

I wouldn't worry at all about finding them for your boy. There will still be plenty come Christmas lingering around. Ant-Man might be hard but who knows. Good luck and I hope you find them for your boy. I am looking for some for mine as well. He isn't allowed to play with proper MU figures in the tub or outside so these cheap figures work for little one just fine.

Had to take some pics with the last bit of snow we had in Upstate New York --Pay no attention, to the house in the background....lol

Ice giants hath invaded the ancient realm of suburbia! Nice shots samsson. I like the first over Thor's shoulder perspective shot the most, the sculpt on King Loufee's (I know the spelling is butchered there) face looks sick.

[UrsaMagnus]

Outstanding, Samsson. All these pictures lately with multiple Frost Giants and Dark Elves sent me on a quest to my local Five Below today to no avail. Nothing but a multitude of Spider-Man figures and such. *sigh*

Isn't Ant Man next year? It is too early for those pre-orders.
Ultron is already out.

Wait, what?! Galactus is supposed to have no 'soul' or 'conscience' - he's beyond normal mortal dispositions. Or is this a joke or "What If" thing?

[Zend]

So does Vortious do his custom parts made to order? I placed an order for several things over a week a half ago and he hasn't sent me an email regarding when it'll ship, so I was just curious.

I also need help finding a figure that has plate metal armored arms in decent proportion with the the AA Thunder Axe Thor's body and the MUI Ares legs. Anyone have suggestions?

He doesn't send confirmation emails if I'm not mistaken, I don't think I got one. As for when it'll ship, he often puts on the Vortious Facebook page that orders made on date X are ready to be shipped, so keep an eye out.

Also, have you tried Colossus for the arm?

It happened on the 90s Fantastic Four cartoon. Galactus is doing his usual thing and no one can beat him (of course). Then out of nowhere Ghost Rider shows up, Penance Stares Galactus and owns his ass then just rides off. Here it's on Youtube:

The episode of Incredible Hulk "Innocent Blood" with Ghost Rider from around the same time did it right. Pretty sure it's on Youtube in its entirety as well.

[Zend]

Ah ok, I'll check his Facebook from now on. I wasn't entirely sure if he was like casting cave where they only list what's already in stock, or if they were made to order. Thanks.

I thought about Colossus, but the sculpted lines might look a bit weird since I won't be using the legs to match. I want to make a taller, more physically imposing Dr Doom btw. Hasbro's Dooms all look goofy to me.

Galactus does have some level of emotion. In Godhunter he empathizes with Beta Ray Bill about being the last of their respective kinds, he also shows a level of remorse for having brought the Korbinites to extinction. Normally though he does just kind of do his own thing with no regard for anyone else.

Depending on when you order/what you order, It can take 45-to 60 days..its been over a month and I haven't gotten the 3 heads I asked for. But I did give a email to him and he told me I was in this batch. What I think he does is wait until he gets a certain amount of orders does them then ships all at once otherwise he would head to post office everyday. So ya got to wait this one out dude.

[UrsaMagnus]

And it's always well worth the wait. I've always been really happy with his stuff. The Odin head he did is the one I used on my recent custom figure and it looks fantastic even with my crap painting skills.

I've got his new "spinning hammer" accessory ordered. I'm really looking forward to that coming.

[Zend]

I bought an pair of open palmed Iron Man hands because I hate that seemingly every Iron Man figure ever has one fist and a blast/stabilizer hand, a Twi'Lek female head for a Star Wars custom i'll probably never get around to attempting, a pack of torso tbars because I accidentally broke the one in the Ares I gutted, and a hood for Dr Doom. They all look really nice in the photos, so I don't mind the wait.

Looking at the Facebook page now that im finally home, it appears he does a large group of casting orders at once then sorts them and ships them as orders are fulfilled. I'm perfectly ok with that.

Agreed. I think you'll usually get an order confirmation from ecrater and an email with the tracking info when it's shipped. I just got a malekith, hydra bob, maestro, jack o lantern, and magneto head (and helmet and some other stuff) in the mail today and they look fantastic. You don't even have to paint the jack o lantern head. Vortious seems like he's stepped up his game. It does take a while but every thing does these days.

That's some next level badassery by ghost rider. I remember that cartoon and it's wierd ass music and voices used to have to wake up at 6 am before school to watch, or right after my bros paper route. Loved watching thing go toe to toe with hulk.

[ukmu]

couple of hand ideas for your Doom Zend.
Curious as to what Doom look you are going for as he has pretty much always looked like the Hasbro figure.

[Zend]

More or less Deodatos art from Dark Avengers. I know Hasbro's figures are spot on with his iconic look, but it just didn't translate well into figure form in my opinion.
