New Marvel 3.75" Appreciation Thread

K Dubious · 06-27-2016, 11:58 AM

I think BAF pieces would be the natural progression of our line. Hell everything that made MU great has been implemented in the Legends line why can't we take some of what makes Legends Great and put it to our line?

I am somewhat of a completionist and if I was already planning on getting every figure it would be nice to get an added bonus because I did.

I hear your point MuFan97, I had to get quite a few unwanted figures to complete my Hulkbuster, but in the end I sold off all the extra figures and it made building it actually cheaper than buying it complete. It helped that I got every figure from that wave at $12.77 on sale, but that is a different topic.

In my opinion it is a shame that we get little to nothing with our 3.75 figures these days and the price certainly doesn't reflect that.

I really want decent MCU/TV figures (AOS, DD, Jessica Jones etc.), and the MIA/not yet produced ones e.g. Deluxe Frost Giant, Mandarin, Malekith, Pepper Potts, Agent Carter, SA AOU Vision). Not sure about BAF parts but wouldn't mind if Hasbro continued the line with masked and unmasked heads - they're doing it with the Civil war Falcon!

I would gotten Igor even at the 5poa instead we got 12 more suis that looked extremely similar instead of different and fun

I've been having a little too much fun with BossFightStudio's blanks. Here are just two kit-bash figures I've come up with so far:

Redfox; you're killing it with these pics! I really ought to look into bossfight bodies. Awesome customs!

A)Series 1 - VITRUVIAN H.A.C.K.S. â€“ Boss Fight Studio - The Store

B)Amazon Warrior + Red Blank = Elektra
Eurayle + Green Blank = Madame Hydra

You could easily piece one together using the Black and White blanks. The only paint work would be needed on the head and swirls on the white arm and leg.

redfox · 06-27-2016, 05:19 PM

Here are some proof-of-concept HACK kit-bashes. Both of these have the heads just sitting on the neck-post. HACKS and MU have different necks, so some modding would be needed for a permanent fix. I just did these pics for fun.

Universe · 06-27-2016, 05:25 PM

Where is that grate from? Looks awesome and has so many modular uses.

Looks great redfox! I wish I had enough dough to go all in. I can't wait for the boss fight zombies.

Does anyone know if this GI joe will be mass released:

I wanna make some mutants with this buck.

Who's the skelly?

Universe · 06-27-2016, 06:31 PM

I think the skelly is from bossfight as well

Kotobukiya's Arkham Knight Batman modular set. It's a really cool set for dios.

Thanks!! I'm also looking forward to the zombies. Gonna have to kitbash some Resident Evil folks, though now.

BossFightStudio's HACK skeleton. Amazing detail and articulation.

Thanks Redfox, for motivating me to take some pics

War Machine versus A.I.M. :

Ninjinister · 06-27-2016, 07:16 PM

I just got the newest wave from BBTS. I like 'em but I I can't believe I paid $70 for this. Also Quasar has realistic "wrist" articulation (in that his whole forearm moves, not just his wrist) at last, but Morbius has none at all?!

Hydro-Man looks a bit like the Ashmores to me. Might need a second one to make movie Iceman.

No that is part of the SDCC exclusive set.
I'm sure some people will be selling her on ebay maybe even some Chinese ebayers.

Quick question about those AIM soldiers: Are they the same mold as Star Lord?

Yes, as well as Ghost Rider

En Sabah Nerd · 06-27-2016, 09:10 PM

I got the new Vision and Living Laser today at TRU. They just had those two, another Vision, and 2 of Rage somehow. Of course they also had the Iron Man/Captain two pack well stocked but no BP/A-13 packs.

Pilkster · 06-28-2016, 04:32 AM

Some orders Ive been working on

Universe · 06-28-2016, 04:49 AM

Amazing customs! I love your design on Crossbones! Red Hood and Terrax look excellent on those bucks; great work!

Aw man thats sick! In my mind the song " die motherf#%ker die" by dope is playing in this scene. What war machine is that? And whered ya get the samm-i?

Universe · 06-28-2016, 05:39 AM

Thank you, Nitelife! That's the Revoltech mini War Machine, such an excellent figure; the A.I.M. Super suits (Samus) can be found at Target, Walgreens (some), TRU mostly, but they are hard to find in the wild these days. I got all three from Target 6+ months ago.

Got 2 samus at recently and now there's a purple armed variant to get too.
