I did that a while back but I'm not happy with the heads. I'm thinking I may settle for a marvel legends claw and repaint his head, but u r right about the bodies, great for a drone sentinel. I'll have to bite the bullet and learn to sculpt:

Hey guys I was out all last week on travel business (bodymore, murderland to be specific). I did some browsing on the east coast and realized it's almost as pointless as hunting on the west coast.

Therefore one could use this head

That's a good idea, I use that Amy pond figure for Maryjane Watson. I think it just looks so much better than the MU MJ.

Has anyone seeing an extra Red She-Hulk kicking around?

Those are perfect representations of the X-Men Arcade game ones!

Raf, I think I found a new obscure variant for you. The ionic wonderman big w small w variants. The stamped in number on the card for small is 42191 on big its 41671. I know the pic sucks, but it is quite noticeable in person

Yeah, looks like you're right. Funny, I just saw 2 WM @ Target this morning. I'll go back.

the sentinel heads are perfect the colour just needs to match up.other than that they are sweet.
was messing around with head switches and was thinking this could work for a zeus custom,just need to repaint the armour.what do you guys think.

Kernel · 05-24-2015, 09:02 AM

^ Thanks for the input Jackieboy, maybe I will repaint those heads instead of picking up some Legends Klaw figures. Also that's a good idea for Zeus, now I may have to pick up one of those Volstagg figures, seems like I see one of those at every other Rite Aid I go to.

I got one a couple of weeks ago at Fred's for $3.

Who is that Thors head? I like it for Sentry. I do like those Sentinels Kerns!

That's the Ultimate Thor head from the first Avengers movie.
I have his hair on my Emma Frost custom.

Meanwhile, here's my WIP Vision based on a custom I saw.
The head was the 5POA Loki. I'm really regretting painting over his eyes now.

This is what I'm going for in the end.

Pilkster · 05-24-2015, 02:21 PM

Id sculp the point on the top of his head and bring in the sides. dont worry if there is to much or it doesnt look quite right you can always trip the sculpt back once dry. but its coming on nice. looking forward to seeing the end product.

Thanks To all that gave me scythe ideas. I found one in the imagine next batman line that comes with scarecrow. Its just a tiny bit smaller than I would have liked but really only needs a bit of paint to make it perfect for what I want it for.

Klaw castings would work great! At least you attempted to do your own head sculpts, sculpting is what puts me off the idea of doing a lot of customs. You nailed the paint job on the bodies too.

Notice how the "W" paint on his chest expands to his upper arm area in one and not on the other fig.

I've got these 2. Thought I had an original carded one.

I loved the unmasked deadpool 2 when I was a kid. I remember thinking how much articulation he had compared to most of the other Toybiz figs. and looking back what kind of accessory is an interchangeable hand, that is the same hand minus paint app?
