I wouldn't want to saddle you with such an awful representation of the character

I would try checking Gamestop for the Apocalypse wave... all my local Gamestop restocked that wave heavily this week and they will be on sale for 17/18 bucks before tax for the weekend.

My nearest gamestop also restocked the PS4 Spidey Legends fig, so I'm thinking maybe I will pick that up on sale this weekend.

I don't have Havok anymore, but the Ben Reilly unmasked head doesn't fit on the Cyclops head peg, so I don't think it will fit on Havok's unless you force it. I bought the Vintage Scarlet Spider just to use the head as my unmasked Captain America for the Onslaught wave Cap, but it looks weird. The head fits perfectly on the peg, but the head looks a little too small. Guess I will just use it as it was intended now and have an unmasked Scarlet Spider.

That line is entirely freehand too. I'll have to see if I can get another set of the head and shoulder pads

Apocalypse hit my area and so did Sauron, but for some reason only the comic shops and Gamestops seemed to have the SP//dr wave.

Nabbed Vintage Ant-Man, X-Men Outfit Deadpool, and the AIM two-pack as part of Gamestop's Black Friday sale. Along with a crap-ton of other stuff

Which also means that Sauron is now fully complete and ready to terrorize the skies!

A grand is a bit excessive, but remember, something is only worth what you're willing to pay for it.

Yeah, but it's in rare territory going that high. It's hard to crack even $400-500 mark with custom Legends. And no offense, it looks great, but there really isn't that much going on there to justify that price so somebody with more money than sense REALLY wanted it. Another 90s Jean Grey went for over $400 a couple months back... maybe Hasbro should take a hint.

kenm2474 · 11-24-2018, 01:14 PM

I paid $500 for my marvel select planet king hulk which is 10 times the size of jeans gray with real leather straps real rubber Souls on his feet metal spikes on his left arm to arm new head sculpt the whole package by the same Customizer loosecollector.

Yeah you posted a pic of that right? I can see that one. Or there was a Maverick couple weeks back that was loaded with kit, bigass 90s xtreme guns and everything. I can see where the money goes. Jean looks like some paint and some real subtle epoxy sculpting and that’s about it. Again, nice, but I’m sure people on these very forums could commission something on par for a fraction of what she sold for.

Harbinger · 11-24-2018, 02:19 PM

Anyone else having trouble changing sig pics? It keeps saying too many lines but its not. Its usng the code in the album but its not working.

redfox · 11-24-2018, 03:52 PM

Glad to finally have Magik. Wow, what an impressive figure and the included accessories are pretty impressive. Never saw the figure in-store, so I jumped when she hit Walgreen's site. Hope the Mystique exclusive is a little bit easier to find in all areas.

Jin Saotome's customs get pretty high bids but it's mostly shill bidding via him or his mom hahaha

jmurray90720 · 11-24-2018, 04:10 PM

There is a guy from Brazil called @rafaelo.customs on Instagram who does amazing work, and he actually makes multiples of the same customs that somehow all end up looking exactly the same. The look factory made, which is really important to me in a custom. I really want his Outback Rogue and Armored Psylocke but I have no idea what he charged. $500 seems insane but I have never seen better work anywhere else.

MeLikeJinx · 11-24-2018, 04:10 PM

My guess why Magik/Thing was hard to find because they came out at the same time pretty much, so most of the stores probably got either/or... not both. But yah, awesome fig... don't get why Lockheed is orange though.
