I used a leg from the old Danger figure

I was wondering that, but given the prices on Danger, that might be a little too prohibitive.

Wonder if a leg off of Rescue could work.

You could always use the Blob body if Shan's head fits, if you just wanna go very scene specific.

I've no idea how well any of these will work, just tossing out ideas.

• Black Series Battle Droid
• Black Series K2SO
• Black Series 4-LOM/000/C-3PO
• Neca Terminator Endoskeleton (7")
• Playmates Terminator Salvation T-700 or T-800 Endoskeleton (6")
• Marvel Legends Danger BAF
• DC Icons Cyborg

Again, I'm just giving you ideas. I've not taken any measurements or made size comparisons to a Marvel Legends female body to know if any of the ideas that I've listed will work.

One thing to note is that the endoskeletons from both Neca and Playmates will be limited in articulation due to the design of the actual endoskeletons used in all of the movies. The Playmates figures also come in 4" and 6" so if you like this idea, make sure to read the eBay listing to check the figure's size.

To anyone in the middle TN area, it looks like some of the Nashville area Targets have gotten Iron Man and Thor. Murfreesboro and Franklin don't seem to have them yet. The DCPIs are 087-16-6499 for Iron Man and 087-16-0464 for Thor. Brickseek hasn't been reliable so I've been Googling "dcco apps Target" (for some reason it won't take you to the correct webpage if I provide a link to it) and have been using this new inventory checker. It seems pretty accurate though you need to give it a specific zip code to check. I was able to get the Colossus/Juggernaut 2 pack (087-16-0462) at the Murfreesboro Target last week using this.

Not sure that'd work.

Nash, I love you, but I'm not above having you fed to the Sharkticons

Here we go. I'll take a look and see if any of these will work. You might be onto something with the Battle Droid leg. I know for a fact the K2SO leg would be waaaaay too long.

Found Thor at Target a few days ago...nobody seems to have Iron-Man yet. Houston area.

Thor is FANTASTIC. On par with Hulk as far as quality.

Me too. I am holding out a slim hope that X-Factor Wolfsbane will get announced some time in the near future and I only need to buy 2 Dani figures.

If you are willing to paint it, you could try a leg from BaF Okoye. That's the easiest single leg to buy. Rescue, Shuri or the upcoming Valkyrie all could work too.

I pulled out the Battle Droid and the DC Icons Cyborg and compared it to the new Spider-Woman figure since it looks to be mostly the same body as Dani Moonstar. Before I go on, I should point out that Dani has newly sculpted boots so that may throw some of this off just slightly.

I’m not sure how you want to go about Frankensteining any of these figures to the Dani Moonstar body but I looked at knee placement and thickness of body parts. The knee on the BD sits above the knee cap on Spider-Woman but the thickness of the limb makes it a good stand in for a prosthetic. The knee placement on Cyborg is pretty close to Spider-Woman‘s, just a millimeter or two higher. However, the leg is thicker since it’s meant for a male character so it could end up looking like armor.

I also compared Spider-Woman to the new Rescue. The knee placement is similar to Cyborg but is noticeably slimmer than his. However, it still looks thick on Spider-Woman.

Ideally, I would want to swap them out at the hip joint, since that's how far up Karma's prosthetic goes. The design doesn't seem to stay consistent, but here's the two most prominent pieces I can find.





So really, if the hip-to-bottom of the foot distance works, that should be fine.

Well, all of their legs look to be about the same length. But I'm not sure about the ball joint for the hip and I'm hesitant to start taking them apart. Regardless of which leg you decide on, you may need to do some sculpting with apoxie to make it work.

Here's some custom ideas I found on Figure Realm:

From Veronica Mars using the Danger BAF leg
Karma (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure

This one uses a McFarlane Terminator 3 T-X leg.
Karma - Xi'an Coy Manh (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure

The customizer didn't say which leg they used but it looks very familiar.
Karma (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure

[Boy Blunder]

Sorry, not the hip joint, the mid-thigh joint. My bad.

Is anyone else super irritated with Hasbro about the Jean Grey 3-Pack? It is a pretty shifty move to make us buy 2 figures that are very similar to figures that they released not long ago, just to get Jean. I have no need for 2 90's Cyclops or Wolverines. If they were gonna do bone claws, they should have made a bandanna head.

What is everyone gonna do? Keep Apocalypse Wave Wolverine, Bone-Claw, or Both? As near as I can tell, they are the exact same figure, but include different hands and extra heads. How about Cyclops? Jacket or not?

I am probably gonna get rid of Apocalypse Wolverine and Jacket Cyclops. I prefer the regular uniform.

It's irritating but not surprising. Most multipacks tend to be like this.

Yeah I am debating in my head if I want to go through ordering this or not. Wolverine, I am really not interested in. Cyclops, I like the extra heads but I don't know if I like them enough to shell out extra money for a 3 pack. I have the Epic Heroes Jean Grey and pretty content with her. I swapped out her long open hand with an extra Rogue's bare hand I picked up on clearance at Walmart some years ago. It really does not bother me anymore. I will debate on it some more before December gets here. If Jean was just a single figure then I would not have a problem grabbing this new one.
