Quick question, will Age of Apocalypse and 2099 see any Marvel Legends love with updated figures and figures that aren't just Spider Man? I sure would love to get my hands on a Ghost Rider 2099 or Iceman AoA or a recast of Sunfire AoA, Hulk 2099... lots and lots of characters there.

Blink in the next X-Men wave

Captain Nash · 10-31-2018, 05:54 PM

I am so happy for Blink too! When the first Emma came out years ago I bought a bunch and did customs. blink, due to complete Recoloring turned out the worst. I’ve been happy to get every official releases of all of them except Selene, which turned out the “best” ... or least worst. Can’t wait to chuck that horrid blink custom.

fr0stie1980 · 10-31-2018, 06:11 PM

I have made a custom Ghost Rider 2099 from a Movie Colossus, Jacket from Movie Beast and head and shoulders from Ghost Rider figure.

At least if they do Black Swan the design isn't that far off from La Lunatica

That looks awesome! What's the blue you used for Jean? And how do you plan on doing the shoulder pads? I'm looking to do my own 90s Jean Grey if Hasbro ends up just re-releasing the Rocket Raccoon wave one.

MeLikeJinx · 10-31-2018, 07:03 PM

Damn. That Meggan is all kinds of badass. Really curious how Jean Grey's headsculpt turns out too... the torso looks really great.

The blue on Jean is sapphire blue from reaper paints

New pics.

Tim · 10-31-2018, 07:31 PM

Why use the Amazing spiderman body? Should've used Pizza Spidey.

Starlord67 · 10-31-2018, 07:38 PM

Puma looking all kinds of cool!

That Meggan looks fantastic Veronica, your work keeps getting better and better. Had I not read that you made it, I would have mistaken it for another Hasbro reveal.

What did you use for the feet? Those look too skinny to be the feet from the recent Pepper Potts figure. Will you be adding the foot thong to her tights as well?

Looks great. Keep up the good work!

The CG render for the arms on that Spidey looks so bad. Kinda pissed they included all fists for the extra arms, with dual thwipping hands. If there is any one figure that calls out for multiple hand choices, it's this one.

The feet are from the Fin Fang Foom wave She-Hulk. I may go back and add in a few more details on her costume.

Dr Kain · 10-31-2018, 10:33 PM

While heading towards a Halloween block party we stopped at a Gamestop I don't live by and look who they had:

For $26 no less. YES!!!!!!

So far my initial impressions are that he is cool. The red paint looks a lot more pinkish than it did in photos I had seen on reviews, so I don't hate it like I anticipated. The alternate heads are cool, but I would have gladly given up the evil looking unmasked head for some karate chop hands for flying poses (or at least some open hands). I do love how they were able to deco the Eel head for a Death mask head.

The wings, on the other hand, leave a bit to be desired. They can't spread out as far as I would have liked and I really don't understand the second set of smaller wings behind the main wings. I don't remember those being there in the comics I read, though, since I really ended up reading the stand alone X-Men title rather than Uncanny back then, it could just be from the lack of memory for that one. None of the figures I had back in the 90s had double wings though.

I haven't put the claw hand on Apocalypse yet, so I can't speak for how he looks with it.

Well, I certainly feel foolish now. Guess that'll teach me to read a little more thoroughly before replying.

Yah, I don't know what the evil Warren head is for... I cannot even look at that head and not think Adam Warlock anyway. For 26 bucks... not gonna complain though.
