Yes, Thunderbird is the older brother.

So the new Spidey 2099 is finally starting to grow on me and I'm not sure why (both the design and the figure). Is he still even wearing the white suit in the comics or did he go back to the blue one?

snake5289 · 03-25-2019, 09:14 PM

In the last issues he was in the white suit and his son was in the original.

I won't lie his new suit took a bit to get used to but now I honestly think I prefer it to the original. I love using it in the PS4 game.

Wait, Miguel has a kid? I had no idea he was a father at all.

There are also a number of Stan Lee "custom" figures that are coming out of China Bay, and from the looks of it, it features the head sculpt from the cancelled build a figure we were supposed to get. What's weird is while the figure is on the suited body, it looks as if the face has been digitally printed.

I'm wondering if by calling them customs, the sellers are hiding the fact that they were able to obtain them somehow through back-channel means. They're not all that expensive, so I might bite. If I do I'll let everybody know how they are.

That Ronan looks pretty good. I'd probably get him if I didn't think Hasbro was going to give us one.

I also like the Stan. I feel bad though that I'm more interested in the suited body with the black tie more than the Stan Lee headsculpt. It's only because I want more black suits with black ties to build up my SHIELD agent and mob goon ranks.

Don't sweat it, dawg. You'll be back up and running in no time!

Well the dr called and i have had my surgery pushed back until tomorrow. Yay another day of waiting.

Bloody doctors.

Yah now that i see the a symbol is molded i have no desire whatsoever to get this.

Bo Ttef · 03-26-2019, 10:18 AM

I saw someone post that BlackWidow actually had double jointed elbows- has anyone actually seen if this is the case? I can't really tell from any of those pics.

Where do those 2 in the back come from? They don't look familiar.

That's what is interesting to me. I love the blue and red, but the more I look at the new one, the red really pops off the white and black. It may also just be the body as I wonder what the 90s design would look like that newer buck.

The Widow to the left is the Infinity War Widow with the vest removed along with a hair swap. The hair piece comes from the AoU Widow and has been repainted.

The Widow on the right is also an IW Widow with a hair swap, only I have no clue where that hair piece is from. I want to say its from one of the CW Scarlet Witch figures, but without the figure in front of me, I can't say for certain. I wanna find out what hairpiece that is though, because it's straight fire...and I love it.

(EDIT: It's not from SW. Now I really need to know!)

I like the new 2099 suit as well. The color scheme seems to draw influence from the parkour game Mirror's Edge, (they are the primary colors worn by Faith, the game's heroine...) and are prevelant all over the game world. I was a huge fan of series, and it would fit right in with its universe...even moreso since outside of Nightcrawler, who could possibly be even more into parkour than Spider-Man?

Thank you. I know you are working on one as well. Looking forward to seeing it!
The head is cast from Dark Phoenix...the hair is sculpted from Apoxie Sculpt. I still have a bit more work to do on her since I saw the pictures.

That Black Widow/Hawkeye 2-pack is really starting to grow on me...Not so much for the Avengers, but more as for a means of getting some retro/sci-fi/spacesuits. Just need to cover the sculpted Avenger's logo.

Pretty sure its a repainted MCU Gamora hairpiece from the Mantis BAF wave.
