New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

TheLongestDay · 08-22-2015, 05:41 AM

I think I made a booboo..
The lack of Kingpin in my collection was driving me nuts so I bought the Spidey Animated series one thinking itd pretty much fit in scale with MU.....I maaaaaay have been wrong. What dyou reckon? :/

Universe · 08-22-2015, 06:06 AM

Marvel wiki says he's 6'7, but I think he looks good

bmorr · 08-22-2015, 06:25 AM

i really do hope they make a MU kingpin down the line. he would go perfect with the army of spidey villain that are available.

Speaking of Skaar. I don't have the MU figure yet & have not really checked out any of the comics. But do you think the figure is a bit large? He doesn't seem to be that big in some of the pics I see & he's not giant in Agents of Smash ( I have a 4 year old who loves Hulk )

Oh my local Walmart has a bunch of Star Wars Black Series in stock. They have a few of those Doom Troopers. I was thinking about picking up 2 for Dooms guards? What do you folks think? How do they scale to MU?

Universe · 08-22-2015, 07:51 AM

Really just depends on the artist; he's either hulky or slimmed down (more so in the cartoon version)

EDIT: From the looks of their website, everything really is $5 or below. Even the stuff that would be $10 in other places like TRU or Target is $5 or lower. That's pretty damn cool. And they do look like one of those places that have so much cool stuff pegwarming because of the fact that not many people are aware of its existence. Definitely gonna stop by sooner or later.

Wanna bet what the prices are at the $1 Store?

I would skip the MU Skaar and go for the Agents of Smash Skaar fogure. It is a much better likeness.

Il Cattivo · 08-22-2015, 10:22 AM

scale-wise agents of smash skaar is perfect imo. the MU one is just too small.

Universe · 08-22-2015, 10:43 AM

No doubt it looks good but one would have to scale up all thier other hulks to accommodate.

jedirulz123 · 08-22-2015, 10:54 AM

Oh so when I suggest a larger Hulk it gets shot down, but this guy suggests a larger Skaar and we're all fine with it :@

They should roughly work. MU figures have always leaned on actually being 4" instead of the Star Wars 3.75" but under the argument that these guys are robots they could get away with being smaller. The size difference is ultimately pretty minimal.

Done. Red Hulk from Agents of Smash and Hulk from Incredible Hulk movie. MU She Hulks work for me. I also use a Legends Maestro because I think he should be massive.

Kamatayan · 08-22-2015, 11:32 AM

Does anyone here have the Vort/Thorodinson Kingpin? I'm dying to see some cool pictures of him!

They look really good with the young Bobba Fett Clone Wars head as a Kristoff. They also look fine as Doombots.

Jay West · 08-22-2015, 11:37 AM

Any heads that work as a Netflix Kingpin?

I went with a second movie Hulk painted red with a black wash on the body and silver in the hair. I think Skaar fits as an MU , he's not Hulk size, same with A-Bomb.

Il Cattivo · 08-22-2015, 12:25 PM

for red hulk, if you can find them, I'd go with shake n smash head + avengers assemble mighty battlers body. been planning on doing that for a while, just haven't been able to find avengers red hulk.

Marvel Universe Avengers Initiative Marvel's Vision Unreleased in Hand | eBay

I'm debating, if this does not get released it could be the next "vision"... price wise at least.

If they're selling him that cheap we're clearly getting him soon. I reckon it'll be in time for the DVD release like with that shit tonne of Guardians stuff last year
