Seriously though, love the cosmic dio! You know what would be even cooler! If you mailed the whole dio and the figures to me!

Got a spare Psylocke body and wondering what to do it.

1) America Chavez custom(Will require sculpting a jacket, I don't have a spare)
2) Poison Ivy custom(will require sculpting leafy details but done that before)

Thoughts?

Also considering Ms Marvel but idk.

[Kamatayan]

Is it odd that I wouldn't mind buying this if it was on clearance? The drone is pretty cool and the gold Iron Man first appearance variant isn't necessarily a must have for my collection especially since I'd rather have a gray one and the 99 cents knockoff that replaces hulk can either be burnt for fun, or just slam dunked into the garbage.

If it zips it fits. I say if you need or can make it work for you why not. Personally I'd find a manager and see about getting it discounted to at least the price of a regular marvel u fig

Actually, I've been in this kind of situation. It was a while back and I don't really remember, but basically when I asked the manager if I could get a discount on the switched item he took it away and said I couldn't have it. If I were ever in this situation again I would just roll with it if it was an acceptable price. If the price was unacceptable then I would go to the manager with my fingers crossed.

I found this awesome War Machine Hulk Buster custom!

Come to think of it, I would love to see a Poison Ivy custom at this scale since DC Multiverse cancelled theirs. I'm not too familiar with America Chavez; if that counts for an opinion.

Bmorr; I love your dios; quite inspiring! I've been procrastinating on my Infinity Gauntlet comic series Dio and you got my juices flowing for some cool battle damage effects.

[bmorr]

i love being an inspiration!

See i don't understand this why not just give a discount get product out the door and make a customer happy.

[kylactus]

because they're not familiar enough with the product. all they know is that it's been tampered with, what if someone switched a three pack of Corps figures with MI figure, then rang out with it for 3.00? I think most retailers (like Walmart) simply rent shelf space to manufacturers like Hasbro (that's why you can catch your local Hasbro rep rearranging the displays). all they have to do is return damaged merchandise to the manufacturer and not bother dealing with it. I remember a scam in the 90's where people would buy a chainsaw, take it out of it's case, replace it with a brick and return the brick filled case for cash, then sell the chainsaw elsewhere for pure profit. the manufacturer complained and told Walmart they needed to have there employees check the returns, Wally said FU and quit carrying there brand. that's why so many larger items now have a tag inside telling the purchaser DO NOT RETURN TO PLACE OF PURCHASE, with an info number.

probs the Punk Storm one. I'd nearly just use a Punk Storm and resculpt the hair but it's hard to find one cheap. No way I'm cannabalising mine for it either, one of my favourite MUs.

Thank you Madame!

Took some shots with some of my figures using their mutant powers.



The Diamond Select Gambit pieces scale better with MU than some of the Hasbro accessories.



And the Figuarts fire effects are wonderfully versatile! BAMF!

Maybe one of the molder guys has her jacket or can do a mold of one. I like punk storm alot too and I can't sell her because my nephew loves that figure and he probly kill me if I sold her. She a dreadknok biker when he plays with her.

Yeah Walmart doesn't seem to wanna play on that stuff. I saw a few legends giantman figures without the baf ultron (the one with the face that looks like he is gonna cry) and wanted to see if I could buy one at a discount. The employee called the manager and he took them back and said he would have to do an investigation... It was odd and reminded me why I never go to walmart.

You did pretty good for your first custom! Also, I'll show you how to put the images here.

First, go to your G+ and copy the image URL by right clicking and choosing the option to copy the URL.



Now, get back on the Ark, go to the box and click the option that I've put a red box around.



Then, a box that looks like this will pop up. Right click unto the part where you can type stuff, and click paste since the image URL is already copied into your clipboard.



Finally, the URL of the image will pop up and will look something like this. Don't remove it. Don't confuse it for an error. The image will show up once you click "Submit Reply".



That's pretty much it.

[Universe]

MUfan97, your Ant Man is shaping up nicely. That Cap buck is one of my favorites; good choice.

Mutanatkind, you have impressive photo skills, man! I enjoy your photos very much. Keep posting

Love that select Gambit accessory, and those Tamashi Flames.

Once again, you bring us more AMAZING pics! To be honest, you and Universe at the top!

[Kamatayan]

@UrsaMagnus I found a cool Quasar custom on the old thread.

[Universe]

Thanks for the kind words, Kama; whoever made that Quasar custom has some serious paint and sculpting skills. That head is freakin sweet and the cape effect is just wonderful.

[UrsaMagnus]

That's friggin' fantastic. Thanks for finding that, Kamatayan. I've been debating on the best way to make a Quasar but I've not yet committed to anything.

I can't wait to see your America Chavez custom. Her, Kate Bishop, and modern Quasar at currently at the top of my most wanted list besides of course all of X-23's costumes.
