Hot Wheels & Maisto make 1/18th scale bikes.
I'm just trying to figure out which model Ghost Rider uses.

Usually it isn't any specific model and will vary from artist to artist so basically just a good ol' motorcycle of some kind, but preferably a Harley since that is the go to "bad-ass biker" bike.

I use a Transformers Animated Oil Slick repainted into black and silver with some red highlights and attach the human torch flame accessories to it for mine.

That one's the Danny Ketch bike though. Which would work great for that Ghost Rider, but not the Johnny Blaze one.

Ghostrider Rip Cord Flame Cycle.... from the film, with attached figure removed, bars bent slightly back and highway pegs extended.

If this bike was a wallet, it would say BAD MOTHER FUCKER right on it. A bit meh on the movie side, but overall look screams demon cycle from Hell. I used to Rock a Harley with fire bits like everyone else, then got this little Mamma Jamma and could not be happier with the results.

(Sorry if the wallet wording offended, but felt an astricks or an at symbol just wouldn't do. Sometimes to get a point across you just have to drop a bomb)

I have several Maisto 1:18 items. They are nice but are too small by a bit. Just a bit though, slightly noticeable but one can live with the results. There are some nice, read EXPENSIVE. 1:16 scale cars and bikes that are perfect scale. Just depends on how your feeling. Could always customise a JOE line bike for the perfect scale.

I won a Carnage at 5:08 am this morning! Very excited, the rare transparent one for under £18 shipped! I did alright on that one. Getting some Spidey baddies from Pilkster and Kdubious soon. Hope to find an Anti-Venom this summer at a comic con. In autumn I will be getting a King Pin kit from Vort. Then the only ones left will be the easy ones for last. Kraven, Mysterio, and Elecktro. Should be sorted well before Christmas.

It is fun to be looking for figures again! I tried for so long not to get Spidey baddies, but the recent waves pulled me in! The free Vulture I got over the weekend pushed it over the edge. Guess I have to start building a playset group now. At least there isn't anything Spidey I want army build so lucked out there! As you guys know, I tend to go slightly overboard with army building.

This is what a 55 figure S.H.I.E.L.D. army looks like in a box. At an army count of 55 figures, this comes in at number three in our biggest armies.


I may need professional help!!!

Love to see a pic if you got one. Sounds ace, had to google that TF to get a mental picture. Has potential to be a wicked possessed Satanic Steed for the Hades Harley! (Channeled my inner Stan Lee for that last line)

[OfficialHegarty]

Thanks for the help I think I will go with a hotwheels or try and get a joe one

I used Maisto as well and got good results.





This one is a combination of the Ketch Showdown and a Maisto.

I have helped many a collector with Maria. I have had 7 or 8 go through my hands! That one is the one that came with the Super Helicarrier that I got for free from Hasbro UK. It was a sample and didn't come in the Nick Fury mailer, but a giant wooden crate that had straw packing and HASBRO and Chinese writing painted on the side. Inside was the boxes SDCC version.

She may be the rarest of official MU figures that were released. Errors and prototypes and rare paint switches aside. Production number rumours vary from 2500 to 7000 I have heard. Either way there were never many. She is a beatifiul figure and well worth the hunt if you can track her down.

@jedi.... Well, start buying the same figure over and over and over and over. Whenever something comes along and you want it say no, buying another army builder. Spend your budget on just one or two hard to find overpriced figures every month. You know the feeling you get when you get a new figure in the post, that will be replaced by just a quick pro eye going over looking for flaws in the new figure that just like the 27 others you paid too much for. And then do that until you hit the 50-85 number and then fluff out other army mumber. Then..... Start getting the rest of the MU family. ...... That is until your son decides 30 foot soldiers isn't really enough and persuades you into chasing a total of fifty for HYDRA troops alone, never mind all the others in the HYDRA camp. Should have it all done for my grandchildren though. Now stop buying MI figures and start with AIM troops..... Write me when you got 20, then we can talk Skrulls!

Well the Hulks were TIH movie ones, and the pegs are ridiculously tiny, like if you've taken a head off of TASM super poseable Spidey, that small. So no head fit. I'm thinking of getting the Vort Rulk head and add some sculpt in it.

[bmorr]

but wait! theres more! now you also need doc samson and comic series abomination

also, its nice that they gave us so many hulk based characters

I'm not getting Comic Abomination, he's tiny compared to Movie Hulks, and a bit too lizardy for my taste

Nice team up you got going Jedi!! For what you have you REALLY make the most out of it and your custom skillz are really improving and you are rather great at it now! Good on ya mate!

I dont have any Karl action! Absorbing man is on my short list...I like when people take the single carded one with the white and black stripey trousers and put the upper half of the 2 pack absorbing torso! That is the one. Could go nutters and use a leg from the full metal version too....but that is a lot of cash to kit bash one guy.

I love the Super Helicarrier and am ALWAYS looking for the mid section to make it bigger....I remember when it came out everyone saying they were going to sell the mid section from the Super version to make it smaller....no one did! Same thing as last year, I hate the foam glove i hate the foam glove....everyone is selling them and they will be 10 bucks on ebay.... that diod NOT happen and they go for li8ke a 100 now! If ANYONE ever ever wants to part with JUST the mid section of theirs to make theirs smaller... i would pay or trade ridiculous amounts for it..... just saying, keep ole uncle ukmu in mind!!

[ukmu]

almost forgot...BAD MOON....you KILLED it with that mini dio!
