[The Creator]

Been a long time, hard to make time with the holidays and all. Would like to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all! Been sitting in the laboratory noticing all the awesome customs lately, So with 3 days off, The Creator has hopefully created something nice for you guys. Please give some feedback...Good or bad!

Oh, and can somebody advise what to do to keep the pics from showing upside down?

Yep, while his head seems like it was intended for a Dracula figure Quasar still came out very well in my opinion and it's great to further build on cosmic characters. We're one official Ronan away from the proto-Annihilators.

I think that's the scale the Ultimate Spider-man vs the Sinister Six figures went with, so it makes sense. Hey, at least this leaves us with some decently sized larger characters for our scale.

That Hulk looks.great, articulation aside. I like the stylized version of Widow a lot as well.

Creator....... fang-tastic fooms!!! What are THOSE wings??!!?? If I had any critiques, it would be a little more "bright" orange, like the SDCC orange Foom and some cloth shorts! In the photos at least, he reads more "red" than orange. Someone on Etsy could make the perfect shorts for next to nothing. Other than that, WOW! Perfection. Very well painted!!!

Edit: everyone HATES thumbnails! use imgur or photobucket and you get BIG full pics to show off your Foom glory. Then they are just big and beautiful and no one has to click and re-click

I use BBCode, (Bulletin Board) you can even size them and play around to fit the page anyway you like, as seen below.

Unfortunately Photobucket is working against letting you do that.
Sometimes when forums resize pics smaller & when you click on it, it still takes you to Photobucket instead.
Not only that then Photobucket puts up an annoying window requesting you to sign up to look at them.
Plus some forums won't allow certain sizes.

It's too bad Maria Hill sold out. That only means he will up the price if he relists more.

Hill is back instock, just ordered one.

I hardly use PhotoBucket anymore for that reason. Flickr isn't very good in my opinion either.

Wrote to him in summer, he answered that unfortunatelly he won't ship to Czech Republic. I do not know why...

[ukmu]

Ship to one of us in UK and we will ship to you....

Done a quick comparison between the Chinabay Vision and the other one I own.

Differences are:

1) The Chinabay head is noticeably 'puffier' looking.
2) The neck peg and inside head are unpainted on the Original but not on the Chinabay one. In fact, the Chinabay one seems to be made of yellow plastic not white (not 100% sure on that).
3) The cape on the Chinabay one is much firmer than the very soft plastic of the original, and seems to be lacking the slight glittery effect visible on the original (hard to capture in pics).

Apart from that - they look the same. I honestly don't know whether they are the genuine article or a very good knock off.

EDIT: Just ordered a Maria - thanks for the heads up. Maybe someone is knocking off the rarer figs? Can't be a coincidence can it...

Thanks for the info, kind of glad I skipped it. Vision looks like he's taken a few punches from mike Tyson or Lennox Lewis or Ali. Someone get a cutman and enswell!

It still looks pretty good tho...

Is the "knock-off" any cheaper to get? If so, that doesn't seem to be a bad substitute, if you want that particular Vision.

Honestly, if you didn't have the original to compare it to it would be really hard to tell them apart. It's only the puffy face and the inside of the head / neck peg that don't match. The cape is much firmer, but I've got legit figures that have firm capes. It still might be a different factory type of thing.

The KO (if it is that) is about $25 with free shipping - not bad for those that can't get an original.

The non glittery cape was the first thing I noticed on mine.

Nice to have a spare though

Same for me. The fact it wasn't soft and didn't have that slight glitter really stood out. But in the pictures or on a shelf nobody could ever tell the difference. Ironically, I bought a translucent Vision from the same seller, and his cape is really soft and nice.

[ukmu]

My cape is the same when compared to the one my son was given by Raf. I honestly just grabbed one for trade bait to someone on Facebook in a year or so when these are all gone and some one is willing to trade a few HYDRA army builders for him.
