No Battlestar but here are a few of my super soldiers...

Appreciate all the comments. Was a fun group to make. I'm very glad to have Cable and the Widow completely done in terms of representation.

Yep. I made him year or two ago but I had him out with this batch, ironically enough, to add magnets to shield and figure. He was the last of the old shield bearers that needed magnet add-ins. The collar's too tall, but I'm not keen on revisiting this guy anytime soon for a correction in that regard.

If there'd be no executive interference and things could work out money wise in terms of production, yeah, I'd put together a very strong lineup of MU figures for the collectors out there.

I wouldn’t mind a kingpin or spiral or doppelgänger, any figures that would be a pain to make that could use for my MU collection. I’ll pass on everything else that’s already been done far better when Vonner ran the line

Kernel I have an almost finished Spiral that I will post in a few just need to add the bands on her arms along with a newly painted and a super articulated Mojo..

The Creator · 03-28-2021, 10:51 AM

!!!!!! Spiral featuring MOJO !!!!!!(work in progress)
Everything works on Spiral and I tried to give her plenty of accessories with the swords, spell casting, and removable everything so tell me what you think so far and Mordiganne please give me your opinion also.

Jason Abbadon · 03-28-2021, 11:17 AM

I love all your customs, but that Spiral is the shit!!!! Wow.

For omnibus editions to read, ya gotta get Secret Warriors by Hickman!
Spy stuff, powered agents and a HELLA lot of fatalities as Fury's private war against Hydra goes global...

Excellent. Superbly excellent!

I bought the Sliders complete series and have started watching that for the first time since I saw it air originally. Talk about a nostalgia blast. So, that means the likely hood of me arranging the customs for pics today is pretty much nil. So in the meantime, here's some random pics of other things.

Starting off with the MCU films. I'm obviously a big Marvel fan, so I of course bought all the films on physical media. Sorted by order of MCU continuity.

One of my prized Sideshow pieces, the Ian McDiarmid X-Men 1 Sideshow framed print. Love this! The Wanda and Vision framed piece is a close second. I won't take pics of anymore of the art work I have. The flash leeches the colors. Seriously.

Here's a couple of shelf pics from one of the bookcases. First shelf here is mostly my Sideshow books. I'm a big Sideshow fan and I like to get their art books. You can see the slip cover for the Excalibur omni that's being read up there. Got some of their puzzles in there. And the Calvin and Hobbes in paperback. Love these strips. Watterson was a genius!

And now the comic related material. Omnibus shelf 1. This will be full of X once the rest of the volumes are done. Inferno is waiting to be shipped. I'm holding out to get everything X in omnibus format. I'm sure all the disparate OHCs will be combined into omnibuses sooner or later. Especially once the MCU's X push begins. I haven't started the DD companion yet. I just got that in the other day. Looking forward to more Miller stories. Looks like a lot of this was adapted for Daredevil's Netflix season 3. The slipcover up there is for a Larsen Spider-Man omni that's also being read.

Omni shelf 2 has most of the cosmic books on it with the early Darkness Compendiums, the Authority Omnibus, Rising Stars Compendium (HC) that they titled as a volume 1 but it collects all the material that was put out. The binding's a bit dicey and since I was a huge Rising Stars fan when they were coming out I bought this compendium again in paperback as a reader copy so I can keep this HC in good condition. And I'm all in on the Top Cow Kickstarters, the first volumes of each are there. I've got more omnis, but they're spread out. I need another bookcase to consolidate all the omnis together.

And lastly here's a collection of Avengers 1:10 scale statues from various producers. I don't have the X-Men 1:10 out, they're all still boxed and I'm not taking pics of the premium formats I have right now.

Agreed. This is a fantastic run! I don't have the omni because it's oop and too expensive, but I've got the run on digital. I'm hoping it gets a re-print. Lovely stuff.

1st off thanks bro and what do I do with all of these? I really don't have the original Marvel Universe anymore as I have customized almost all of them with modern upgrades. Mordiganne like you I do this because of my passion and or love for these figures. Now to answer what do I do with these simple just collect. Dude you make great customs and would love to do some work with you but anyway keep pumping out those customs.

Arghhh. Again, this must be deliberate sabotage by Hasbro. The whole series about Avengers using gigantic mecha and instead of using 3.75 inch figures that are almost perfect for this, they decide to go with (yet another!) 6 inch figures that use just a slightly bigger mech suits? That does not make sense.

I've got four original pages from the run- when Alex goes to the White House after his father died...to write the President a letter.🤯
