^ agree, crack that sucker open! Unless u r looking at it as an investment which who knows which way prices will go. Those guys fetch a pretty penny loose anyways.


Here's that coulson kit bash with Jon vanders head:

I hope you don't mind; I'm going to copy that kitbash and make him my Happy Hogan for Tony Stark. He's got a John Favreau tinge to his face and the reciting hairline but I'll paint his hair black to be different.

He looks a lot like Bill Belichek! Needs a Scarlet Spider hoody and a deflated football, though.

Thank you very much
Yeah, that likeness is just perfect, why couldn't all heads be like that? The only one I reckon is better is the IM2 Fury head.

Ahh, now I need another MIB K, and that head for Happy. Thanks for that XD

Don't forget some faulty headsets, some tapes of their oppenents signals and walkthoughs, and a playsheet of the oppenents scripted first 20 plays or so. You have ruined this kitbash for me now I am disgusted by it lol.

There's a Black Bolt up for grabs on eBay but the wing looking thing on him looks broken. Does anyone else have this problem with their Black Bolt? Is it fixable? I'm interested in bidding but I wanna know because I'm mainly bidding for Black Bolt and if that figure ends up broken then it'll be kind of useless to bid.

Can't really say for sure but that right arm just looks broken.

Where did you dig up that photo of mine? That's like 3-4 years old.

I was looking through the Marvel Scalpers Rant thread.

[Autobot_Goldbug]

I had to get a new Black Bolt because mine broke at the elbow. There were quite a few of those packs at the time so I didn't have any trouble just exchanging it at the store.
The wings are on a clip on the arm.

@Universe I've looked at your Crossbones long enough to decide that I want to copy your kitbash. Would you mind telling me the formula? The Crossbones is obviously from the First Avenger line, but I forgot which revomini figure was used for the body. Also, are there any defects on the kitbash that you think I should be aware of prior to getting the parts to make it? Like the Crossbones head being loose on that body or whatever.

Head/vest: captain America winter soldier line
Upper torso/arms: Revolmini Kinniku Suguru
Lower torso/legs (rest of him): Revolmini Venom Snake



Defects: the head has to be secured by putty or some other substance because the peg is very skinny. Also, the upper body from Kinniku is bulbous so the vest has to be heated and secured with rubber bands until it shapes to body (Thanks Psycho Pirate!).

You can also take parts and just kitbash what you like and don't like; experimenting is part of the fun. Here is a modern rendition of him in a Hydra-like uniform:



Basically just swapped the lower left arm from the Kinniku figure to get rid of the red mechanical arm.




Now that I have the Kinniku figure; I may try to kitbash something else to utilize it.

Ah. It was a shame the repacker didn't put in the missile pods for the Navy drone.

[Kamatayan]

Any updates on the Revolmini Ultron? Can we pre-order him yet or something? I'm dying to have him in my collection.

Thanks for the info! I'll pass for now since the two Revolmini figures are kind of expensive for me.

I've been checking on the Ultron, nothing new yet.
Hobby Link Japan (HLJ) website has them for much cheaper than Bbts, the Kinniku fig was $18 before shipping. Yeah, they are pricier altogether but actually pretty cheap for an import.

You are very welcome!

My Crossbones recipe is the head and vest on a Roadblock (movie version) body. Easy and cheap if you want an alternative.





A Hercules body with Wrecker legs also works. Here is a test shot I made to compare bodies. the DC Multiverse Bane body is also an option:



(When I customize, I am all over test shots and proof of concept shots to get my plan together before starting.)

[Universe]

Thanks again, Psycho Pirate; that's a great approach to getting the ball rolling when customizing. I like that Herc/Wrecker recipe. I wish the Multiverse had better articulation becaue the Bane was my first thought but was disappointed.

[Universe]

I had a little fun this morning, wish I had more time today to work on it:

A compilation of my kitbash uploaded on YouTube

[deathofthelines]

Now the cosic war can begin in my little verse. Just picked up the baf Thanos complete for a whopping 10 bucks!!! It's my first complete baf. I know he's big for a marvel u but for some reason with him I want him to just have that outclass look when posed against all my heroes.

[jedirulz123]

Got my custom Yellowjacket from Pilk, it's simply amazing. The paint and casts are great.

Antony kinda looks like he's flying in this pic
