2.5 Falcon's arms are bare between glove and sleeve like in the movie. 3.75 Falcon's are not.

Why.

Random picture time!!

This came out a bit blurry. Apologies.

Anyone try the Xmen Evolution Blob with 3.75. His look is pretty different, but I like to mix it up sometimes.

I'm hoping they fit on the Sam Wilson cap from that 2 pack. Maybe they can triple up on my batman beyond too.

There's nowhere on the FalCap to put any wings, no hole on the back. You'd need to drill.

Thanks for setting me straight.

The Doom in my sons new DETOLF is quite famous actually. He is the exact same Doom from our very own resident diorama king, K-Dubious. The EXACT same figure that is centre of his video on YouTube. Been seen many times and now he lives in an IKEA shelf in a 10 year olds bedroom in beautiful northern England. He goes on bike rides and cinema trips and even to the park. There is a lot of love in THAT particular figure. That is why HE gets top shelf centre stage!

This is him..... ^^^^^

Cheers, I love that playset!!! I think it is PERFECT for them!

The alien thing is a random pound shop/dollar store find. I have the box, I will find it and show a pic. On top of it is a Star Wars toy from ESB, this bubble pod thing with arms and suction cup feet.

When I get his Chitauri shelf finished I think it will be the best, we will see though. DETOLF number two the top three shelves will be HYDRA with the bottom all the other baddies in our collection. Avengers, X-Men,
Galactus, Spidey villians... All of them! Not sure who I will fit them all in.

Funny because #1 everyone complains about "dead space" in our scale inside a DETOLF and #2 usually the "bad guys" take a small portion of the units.... Got him TWO units and have no room for a single hero!!!!

ukmu · 02-15-2016, 03:09 PM

Also.... By spring I will add a background and floor to each shelf. Try to make every section seem like a world unto its own.

DETOLF number three will be tricky... SHIELD will take every inch of one section, Avengers most likely two sections, then divide bottom section into three for X-Men, Deadpool and Fantastic Four.

Life was easier when they all lived in acid free poly bags in tubs in the Harry Potter style cupboard under the stairs. Like P-Diddy said, mo' Detolfs mo' problems.

Universe · 02-15-2016, 03:24 PM

Awesome shelf displays UKMU, really like your armies and accessories.

Madrevjack awesome stack on those playsets. Really cool idea and your Doom Army is pretty vast. Love the sentinel Dooms.

Got my Captain Marvel today. Really disappointed at the paint apps. It's a shame because the sculpt and design of the figure is really good, but I feel so cheated paying so much for a figure that's lower than the quality of most japanese Candy figures. Head sculpt & face paint was better than expected, but there was some... excess something on the chin that messed it up. I'll try and scrape it off and/or take some pics.

sh002 · 02-15-2016, 04:52 PM

Universe · 02-15-2016, 04:57 PM

Nice one, sh002! I guess Deadpool is a head-above his competition.

Many thanks. It works great. I'll be buying him. I know the look is unconventional, but that's why I like it.

Jay West · 02-15-2016, 05:30 PM

Nice pics UKMU, Universe, and Sh00

Jay West · 02-15-2016, 05:33 PM

After Toy Fair, my mentality is that I'm going to build my MU 3.75 collection with the small amount of figures they give us and then use other lines and old Marvel lines for things I can find in scale. Not quite like finding scores of figures on the shelves but should still be fun. Not sure what I'm going to do for my Joe collection LOL. I guess look for Eagle Force, Mauraders, and Adenture People lines to supplement.

Madame Warlock · 02-15-2016, 05:46 PM

You can always make customs and stuff.

Anyway here's my Carol doing important Ultimates work.

Tbh it looks pretty cool even when the paint is a little scuffed up. It's a really nice design that translates well to simple toy form. The hair looks better in person than photos, I don't know how to describe it. but it looks basically like slightly more realistic Super Saiyan hair which is very fitting, like she's about to go Binary.
