Yeah, my version anyway. Smaller like the one from the 90's X-Men TV series. It was so simple to do I couldn't resist. Just a cheap plastic diamond from Micheal's (they have several sizes) and a small tube as the stand. The pedestal was harder to find but ended up using a cap from some makeup product my wife had and painted it metallic silver.

Nice iceman. Reminds me that we should get more shiar figures. A deathbird figure would be sweet to have. Actually, in general I'd love to see more space characters.

Yeah, Cosmic Marvel rules. I feel we aren't likely to get very many but at least we're getting Nova soon. I think the characters like Polaris and Rachel Summers are more likely since they have wider appeal but I would love to some Starjammers like Cosair or Ch'od (Hulk body would work there). I'm still holding out hope for Annihilus eventually. I mean, they just gave us Blastaar.

Long time lurker, first time poster. Since I have learned a lot from the forum members regarding 3.75" Marvel Universe, I thought that I should give thanks and show appreciation. Below is what started out as a few figures for my two year old son to play with when he visits me at the office. My pictures are not the best because I took them with my cell phone.

Bug and Phyla-Vell would be cool too.

The Archangel and his base were done by fallen69lee04 (amazing job), I just painted the wings. The Iron Man Skrull was just an easy head swap but the Thor Skrull took a lot more work. The rest are over in the customs thread.

Speaking of Lee, he also made me this sweet Namor. Just flawless.

Better pic of my Hall of Armor without my thumb in it.

I'm a bit of an Iron Man addict myself. I haven't gotten around to setting up my comic hall of armor yet as it's a big undertaking but the movie stuff looks okay.

This pic isn't mine but it's one example of how cool the setup can be. I've seen some crazy custom armories.

WVMARVEL · 11-29-2012, 08:53 PM

Yeah, that Hall is legit. Have to keep it low key in the office. The bookshelf is behind my desk. Co-worker is into Marvel comics with his boys and he wants me to fill the tall bookshelves that are currently empty. That may be a bit much.

WVMARVEL · 11-29-2012, 08:56 PM

At Halloween, the city had Superhero Trick or Treat downtown. Brought my boy up to the office to show him the "collection." His mind was blown! "OH WOW DAD!! OH WOW!!" I have a few extras for him to play with. Can't touch the display now.

It's cool that you have that set up at your office.

Marvel2Death · 11-29-2012, 09:07 PM

O. V., Kayo83, and Bad-Moon, nice pics, keep up the good work! All of the pics are just awesome! Went to TRU tonight to look for the new wave! Hoping to get the Professor X and Jubes! And, Blastaar...never heard of this bad guy up until late, but I am sure looking forward to getting him along with the infamous Bag-Head Spidey! Long story short, they had Scarlet Witch, Kang, and Beast sitting on the shelf! Did not have doubles of Scarlet Witch, Kang, or Beast, so grabbed them to keep MOC! Also, my TRU had a special on Marvel items...buy 2 get one free! So, not pulling the trigger on these figures was not an option! Lol!

Kayo83 · 11-29-2012, 09:11 PM

@WVMARVEL Great set up and welcome to the board

@ iceman lol I knew that base looked familiar seem a bit leeish lol

Kayo83 · 11-29-2012, 09:18 PM

@Marvel2Death Thanks will do hope you do the same, nice grab make sure you grab that new punisher if you can

gunzilla · 11-29-2012, 10:49 PM

Great hall of armor iceman, and lees customs are awesome as usual.

I'd love to see Annihilus. The main GOTG guys I'd want is mainly just Groot and Gamora. Then it would be Cosmo, Mantis and Bug.

Wow, Fallenlee did a really great job on that Namor. Nicely done and very clean.

Welcome. Nice setup. Good guys shelf, bad guy shelf, and then hall of armor. Nicely done. Who is that guy in all black standing in front of Kraven?

Moon Knight appreciation. Just read through the Bendis books. This fool is nuts.
