@TBM, Now you're talking my language! Firstly, that posing on Pietro is absolutely on point. As for Mr Dukes, Blob will always be on the top of my 'Most Wanted' list.. what an exceptional figure!
As for your other photos, well, the use of that metal plate/wall for Magneto v Hulk is inspired, and using the Impact Tamashii effect as Avalanche's earthquake is a lovely touch. Are you sure you're not an A.C.B.A-er? Quote:
Nice Hulks! I haven't picked up any of the Hasbro ones, but they look good out of package. Last edited by VonPooten; 01-23-2016 at 05:35 AM.. |

Hmm... I don't know how you two feel about customising, but I would definitely recommend putting a Misty Knight upper torso/holster on a Wasp body, repaint, and you'll have a lovely Domino! The official figure is... She's alright, but her proportions and articulation is clunky, and for the price she'll be fetching now I don't know whether you'd want a figure that's noticeably not that great.

@Von
Thanks for the compliment on Quicksilver and my Brotherhood vs Banner set-up! Nah, the A.C.B.A. crowd are all professionals that put my stuff to shame. lol They're pros and I leave the pro stuff to them. I do 'regular-Joe' hobby stuff on the top of my bookshelf...and I'm good with that! We're on the same page with Blob. The fig represents a wild departure from the form typical to Legends BAFs. The Blob might be upsetting to most sensibilities, but it's truly a unique toy...and he's a Hulk enemy, so there was little chance that I would be passing him up! I have to agree on Domino, but I still think I may be able to make her look interesting in spite of the fig's shortcomings.... |

Not sure if it's been shared or not, but the Cap wave is in stock at Walmart.com with free shipping over $50. Link is below. Should be sorted by newest.

@ChuckSass, Despite the X-wave rumour, I'm still betting that we'll see a Deadpool/Cable/Domino combo at some point. Especially Neena, as she'd be so easy for them to make.. @TBM, Modesty is an admirable quality, but trust me that your posing skills are certainly of the caliber and above that of the A.C.B.A crew. Granted, they have to contend with those "no visible stands, no wires" rules, but you make some A-class shots. Now take the darn compliment! In regards to Blob, he is a behemoth of a figure that never should have been made, and by all rights he was. I'm aghast that Hasbro managed to pull him off with such skill back in their early days! Right, I've given up on that bendy wire, but Daredevil does look pretty cool with it whipping around him. I recommend people give it a shot to add that extra flare to their display! |

Picture fest!! haha! Great set-up, dude! I love the Goliath pose and DD is straight out of a comic! See, your posing talents are why I'm excited to improve. I look at your poses and see where I could improve my own technique! Nice stuff! EDIT: forgot to mention the fly snake-fist hand postures for Danny!

I must say I do love the Figuarts Hulk. He might be a little lime green, and his nipples look surreal as heck, but he's fantastic!

@TBM, Well, I guess I better take my own medicine and accept the compliment! I'll go full-on English for it, cheers a right bunch, mate! With these new bucks, Hasbro are offering us new levels of realism and fluidity, and bringing that into poses is very achievable, so now it's just about practice!
Oh and, of course, I had to place Danny in one of the greatest martial art stances; it was a no-brainer! I did indeed! He's currently sporting Iron Fist hands, grasping forward and shouting what I believe to be "My robot brain requires beer, fleshy ones!!" |

That's awesome bro. I get exited reading about all the hulk stories here and how much fun it was to play with them back in the day! I still feel the same way every time I see a Hulk figure.

Yes it is an Obitsu stand! They're the best figure stands out there, very durable with weight, adjustable height, and you insert the screws yourself so the joints are great.

^^^^ Super Nice pics as always Blue! I've needed Quicksilver in my collection for years but I haven't been able to find the blue one under $50 bucks and I just hadn't wanted to spend that much. Not a fan of the green and I held out last year hoping we were going to get an updated one but it may be time to give in.

For those considering them, keep one thing in mind. They are great but the base is light. You will either need to weigh the base down, attach the bottom with an adhesive of some kind or my personal preference; learn to manipulate the stand to provide a counter-balance for your figure. TBM's Magneto pic (also using Obitsu stands if I am not mistaken) also shows off just how versatile these stands are. Multiple layers of stand to achieve an exact pose all counter-balanced. That's the other great thing about these stands, they are modular. |
