I promise you no one is going to buy the $200 Widow just to butcher the head. Amy Pond is about a tenner, and never consider the rarest figure ever again lol

I'm soon confused...do you want one cause its rare or cause you think its a good figure ?
It looks cheap and has a butta face....
Now I know blowing $200 after drinking those two things don't matter in the real world ...but in the land of toys lol

ukmu · 05-20-2015, 08:47 AM

lovethat drone JB....looks ace, like a recon commando.

I didnt know about the movie/Joe nods in EMH, makes having another look more worth while.

That proto paint apps missed he mark from the final, you could use the short ginger chick from the Star Wars line....someone will help out with her name.

i like your LAND OF TOYS outlook Samsson

I am still wondering about seeing the wave 2 release that much at retail....never know though. i hope we do.

LESS THAN 50 DAYS UNTIL SDCC 2015

No not that!
Karen Gillan was Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Therefore one could use this head

to make a movie styled Nebula

SDCC is just around the corner!!! Are you ready???

kylactus · 05-20-2015, 01:14 PM

Ah, you said either one haha.
I'm not sure that head would still look like her when painted blue and without hair, and it's a bit small.

has anyone looked at the 1992 Toybiz deadpool figure on ebay lately? what the hell man! I sold three of those in 2010 for six each! and at the time that was a good price, why'd he go all "Vision" all of a sudden!

Haha don't you just hate when that happens. Probably cause of the Deadpool movie coming out soon...

Ok guys, I've been working on my painting skills and making up random paint schemes and designs. It got me thinking we should do an original character custom design contest.

So here's the rules, make a custom of an original design, or unique marvel universe character. Come up with a back story for them in mu continuity. Now I'm not a super skilled customizer so I'll judge a bit more heavily on the story than say the paint job or sculpt (though that will factor in as the judges will be anyone who Doesn't have an entry in)

Here's an example, after his third DUI tony stark was a man with few options, spend the next five years on the raft, or give up some surplus equipment to shield. Now with his new iron agents, nick fury is ready to bring the fight to hydra.... But what nick doesn't know is that hydra has a trick up there sleeve, iron bob.

Anyway, any ideas on a contest length, or other rules or any ideas at all? Or would anyone be into this ?

kylactus · 05-20-2015, 04:41 PM

Oh, and here's the booty for the contest.
