Going a bit off topic I found one of those crappy 3 3/4" military toys that come with a helicopter and the soldier figure that comes with it has an absolutely fantastic head for a Brock Rumlow custom.

It's bugging me a little when I get close but from far enough looks perfect. I'm wondering if one of the aou heads will be a better color match since the suit is darker

Does anyone here have an Anti-Venom? Not asking for a trade or anything but I'm just curious. I think he's one of the hardest Marvel 3 3/4" figures to come by. If any of you do, could you post a few pics? I saw someone trading it for a blue Abomination but I think that thread is dead. The Arker who snagged that is so freaking lucky. It frustrates me even more because one of my local comic stores has a lot of the blue Abominations for around $10.

Just some quickies before bed. Maybe more tomorrow if you kids are good and I have time.

They're a bit big, they're poorly made, rubbery, can't stand worth beans, smell funny, and will probably give me more cancer, but I like 'em still.

Holy God! You got them! Hope to see some of them next to regular 3 3/4" Marvel figures soon.

Several of those figs are the marvel u. Looks like these new things are a bit bigger

I'm looking at the Anti-Venom figure and the accessory he comes with is cringe worthy. The way it's shaped along with the color is giving me bad vibes. It's a mixture of how grossed out I get seeing the Alien movies for the first time along with the fact that it looks, well, you can piece together what I'm trying to say. In the unlikely event that I get this figure I'll be sure to keep that accessory hidden away deep in the middle of the Earth.

The Alien was very deliberately made with a phallic vibe, actually it has multiple points that are meant to be representative of both genders' sexual organs. Anti-Venom (and stretch strike Venom) is just plain funny, somebody didn't fully check them over before release.

Ya. Honestly, I could post a picture of the accessory in a place not related to Marvel figures or anything comic related in general and most people would probably think the same. Those who do spot the symbiote looking face at the tip of it that are Marvel fans would probably think it was one of those themed ones. Someone really needs to evaluate those things. Maybe that's why the 3 pack with the Anti-Venom figure didn't come out in a lot of countries. I mean it's one thing with the original Venom because it's somewhat acceptable, but with the white color I think they felt like they just crossed the line.

Anti-Venom is next on my list..... he doesn't show up often on eBay. In fact, the other there were only two that I could find. One was in Spain and the other was somewhere in South America. Pretty random places for an Australian exclusive. Buying him for a Christmas present, and yes I began about three weeks buying for Christmas.


On a different note, my mate Pyscho Pirate turned me on to this dude. Caster of 1/6 and 1/12 scale heads into 1/18 scale. He ships out your item within 48 hours of ordering!!!!!! Has a tonne of stuff the other caster do not have. 2 days until ships beats waiting 100 days for shipping.

I have that, it works great!! Sometimes they slide down a bit, but a blop of Blu-Tac and you're all good. I highly recommend it.

Can you link me to the South American one? The Spain one is a little bit overpriced.

I believe I have found it. Why do they all have to be so far away ;-;? That shipping cost is pretty darn high.

Just for display I think it looks decent, how can it be bootleg though don't they need something to work from to make the fake, hence will we be getting an official movie yellow jacket? Hope so don't know about you guys but after seeing the movie its one of the best costumes for a villain out of the MU movies

Don't forget we also got that Hulkbuster with no official product, clearly these Chinese sellers have some quality toy makers behind them.
Speaking of the old KO-HB, I saw a guy at LFCC selling him for £20. I think I bought it for £8 X'D

[Law78]

Only just got round to watching the vids on you tube from this years SDCC of next years figures, being a new collector am ok to be excited by what i saw?
They look to have brought back the great articulation to a lot of the figures with some great characters and the comic two packs, to me it looks like Hasbro are being serious again with the 3.75 figures instead of some of the crap we got from this years waves.

Another thing when it showed the 3.75 they were branded as Legends are they changing the branding again for the smaller figures?

Only thing i didn't like was the video of the official slideshow presentation i watched had the official guy speaking introduce the 3.75 stuff by saying "now we've got the 6 inch out of the way lets get onto the good stuff" with a bit of a jeer behind it sounded a bit mocking and taking the piss, might be me though being paranoid.

The character choices are reasonable, but only perhaps 4 of the figures they showed had proper articulation.
My Terminators arrived, I've gone for Ultron drones. I just don't care for Doombots. First proper army build.


A guy on a Facebook group I'm in received his new MUs from Taobao; Emma, Korg, Colossonaut, & Northstar. Finally they're getting out there. Now we just need Ol' Skurge & the unreleased Marvel Universes will have been released.
