Thanks Mordiganne and Harbinger!

The base mech is from Jazware's recent 4 inch Batman line. Easy mech to custom and is currently available at retail. 6 inches tall. Cockpit opens on 2 different levels and can fit most 3.75 inch figures. Pilot actually stands in the mech.
Downside is articulation, with only shoulder/arm swivel. Lower half is static and molded in place.

That Dynamo looks great!

I actually have the Natasha IM2 figure with the permed hair. It's a good figure for the time, but not very attractive.

Well that's no bueno. Oh well. Thanks!

And seeing that purple monstrosity makes your paint job even more impressive. Very well done!

A chicken little tibia bone is 4.606 inches. So surely Hasbro is (hopefully) capable of tossing an even smaller 3.75 figure, in at least pictures of the brand new Galactus. The Sentinel was only selling the 6 inch toys. Could've hypothetically sold twice the Legends toylines (by showcasing the Sentinel with Legends Retro 3.75 too). The smaller figures would've made the big Sentinel look even more awesome. Let's all communicate to Hasbro to help them not make the same mistake, of the "half-sell-Sentinel." Helping them make a greater sell of 3.75, can hypothetically help, have a twice greater sell of Galactus too.

Feel for you guys...

Maybe you could fix up an old Avengers movie loki figure? The outfit might work and it's small enough to pass for female. Or maybe fix up an armored Gamora? You sculpt, if I remember correctly.

I do but I'm out of practise. Gamora could be a curious one. I was nearly thinking there might be a GiJoe that fits due to the layered leather look.

For those interested, the Darkness vol 2 kickstarter is live. They haven't updated the front page yet but most of the stretch goals have already been reached. Only 1 left to go and that will be met in the next day or so I imagine.

Morning all as I struggle to find time to post after creating 30 new customs these (2) found there way thru the Multiverse.
Dr. Steven Strange vs Mephisto
I don't really dig movie versions of characters and would rather focus on classic comic book style heroes and villains.
Custom hand painted and plenty of custom extras

The Creator · 07-15-2021, 06:31 PM

Breaking news guys just heard that Hasbro Pulse is making Galactus. Fellas this aught to be epic considering it will be taller than the Sentinel.
I can't wait and now have a reason to get my Fantasic 4 team together with the Ultimate Nulifier out of storage.

Fifth Fantastic · 07-15-2021, 11:47 PM

Greetings friends, these are some new heads that I have on my page for 3.75 bodies, visit my store and soon I will have the Doop figure from X-Force and Loki alligator from the Loki series.

Me too! Yet the presentation's missing size comparisons pics for the 3.75 inch figures (just like the Sentinel). Everyone remind the Legends team about the Legends Retro 375 figures. Love to see 3.75 next to this awesome Galactus!

Bro no pics needed but would be nice to see a comparo and you know that Dwight isn't going to go that route. I just measured my MU Galactus and the Pulse Galactus is almost twice as tall which means he will be a giant next to a 3.75 figure perfection. Ordered mine about 2hrs ago.

Super Joe · 07-16-2021, 03:20 PM

^^^ Your right about Dwight my friend. (it's the reason why there's no bother to include his link). The rest of Hasbro though has responsibilities to promoting product. Cross promoting all Legends toys, 6 + 3.75 alike, can only help achieve the stretch goals. Including 3.75 in it's promotion can even get a few hundred brand new 3.75 collectors. We all know Steve loves Retro 3.75. Tony too says he welcomes constructive criticism to help the toys. So let's help them + our unsung 3.75 scale.

Some totally fun Retro 375 figures that can be made for Galactus,

uberlad · 07-17-2021, 05:12 PM

A heads up for the folks that missed the cheapo five POA Walgreen‘s figures last time around—-They are restocked!

These are not to be confused with the other five POA three and three-quarter inch lines Hasbro is selling for 150% more.

What's the best/cheapest female body to buy up to make a bunch of customs? I *really* wish I had a bunch of Kitty Prydes to make New Mutants

I offered all of these bodies to you multiple times and you never got back with me on any occasion..

The Creator · 07-18-2021, 04:36 AM

With Galactus coming out HeroClix and Marvel universe figures are going to cost even more. This custom thing can get pretty expensive.
