@kenm2474: I really liked War Machine's first look in the films and apparently so did most folks at Marvel since it was how he looked in the comics (more or less) after IM2 came out. Unfortunately I wasn't getting Legends back when IM2 was out so I just have the AoU War Machine which is still good in its own way.

What's the sniper rifle from?

Redfox; she's a beauty! I love that Dio!!

Might be sort of a long shot...but if anyone picks up a (or multiple) Marvel Legends Civil War Iron Man figures...and they DON'T need/want the 2 blue repulsor blasts...hit me up please for either purchase or trade.

Looks like the sniper that came with the Val figure in Funko's Evolve Legacy line. The line didn't sell well (and neither did the game) so at my TRU they're only like $8.

I'll be honest, I just want the BAF part from the at Iron Man. If you end up with a second Iron Man, I'll be happy to buy the part off you.

[SymbiSpidey]

So I have to say the Mark 46 Iron-Man might be my favortie Iron-Man legends....ever. I love the Series 1 Iron-Man, but there's just something about this Mark 46 one that's really appealing, despite the somewhat lackluster articulation.


I like it so much that I'm pretty much willing to ignore the fact that it's a movie design and have it as my go-to comic book Iron-Man.

I was thinking of taking Ultimate Spider-Woman's open palm hand, painting it white, and putting it on Spider-Gwen, but her hand won't come out. Any suggestions for how to get it out?

[kenm2474]

Which figure is the one on the right?

That looks like Spider-Man classics Hobgoblin to me.

Yeah with its purple-ish glider and toe hinges. Definitely not the upcoming Hasbro Legends one, though that new one does look really good.

There's a number of ways to doing it, but the method that has always worked best for me is to use a hairdryer. Simply heat up the hand and wrist from all angles on high heat for about thirty seconds, and it should just pop right off with a little pressure.

Try to grip the hand from the palm as you're pulling, and while it might take a little bit of pull...do not force it or you could rip the peg. In the instance that it doesn't come out, just simply apply a little more heat to the limb and try again.

You can also use very hot water as well, by dipping the part of the figure you want to swap out in it, for about 30 seconds to a minute, and then popping the limp off. This method is often referred to as the "boil and pop" method.

Note...when re-inserting the hand, be sure to heat it up again before attempting to push the the hand's peg into the wrist. This will allow it to pop back into the joint with a bit of ease, and will prevent it from tearing. Once the hand is placed back into the wrist, simply dip the arm and hand in some cold water, and it should reset the plastic, restoring it back to it's original state.

Bingo! Unfortunately for Val, her elbow disintegrated upon opening so all of her tech/weapons/gear went over to Widow.

Thanks!!! The dio is the modular base from the Kotobukiya Batman Arkham Knight ArtFX+ Statue.

Wish I ha got this at retail years ago.

The newer versions just look too skinny and doesn't have 2 shoulder weapons.

Ooo redfox, that's a very nice Widow you've put together!

Funnily enough, I have had numerous problems with the teen buck hands. Unlike other figures, whether the bucks often have interchangeable hands, I don't think the teen buck is meant to, and thus their hands are much more difficult to get out.

In an attempt to give Magik Spider-Girl's open palm hand, I completely mangled the joint. So, being extra cautious is my advice!

Is it difficult to remove the hair from the head??(or the replacement of the hair)I've never looked at them closely and just assumed it was all molded together..

Actually, scorpions lived in the area your house was built on long before humans lived there, so technically you are the one invading their home.

Add to that the fact that there are quite easy ways of deterring them from being inside your house that don't involve harming them, and you are inflicting unnecessary suffering and death on innocents, which is immoral.

1. Nonhuman animals feel pain, pleasure, fear and other sensations. If they feel these sensations, then they have an interest in not being used merely as a resource for human pleasure, amusement, or convenience.

2. There is no necessity for human animals to intentionally exploit nonhuman animals and cause them to suffer or die except our own enjoyment of the taste of their flesh/secretions and the convenience that animal exploitation affords us. Humans have no dietary need for flesh, dairy, eggs or honey:

https://legacyofpythagoras.wordpress...-doctors-think

We have no need to use animals for clothing; we have no need to use them for entertainment; not only is it morally unjustifiable to use nonhumans in bio-medical research, but more humans suffer and/or die when we do so than if we didn't use nonhumans at all:

http://www.abolitionistapproach.com/...of-vivisection

http://www.abolitionistapproach.com/...of-vivisection

Furthermore, not only is exploiting nonhumans unnecessary, but doing so either directly or indirectly causes the vast majority of both human health problems and ecological destruction caused by humans:

https://legacyofpythagoras.wordpress...gical-problems

3. When something is unnecessary except for our trivial pleasure or convenience and that thing causes some being (for example, a nonhuman or human animal) to experience pain, fear or other kinds of suffering, then the harm being done to that being's interest in their continued survival, freedoms, or not suffering is more important than our interest in our own mere pleasure, amusement or convenience.

4. We claim to believe in "fairness/ethical/moral consistency" as a "moral good", which means we believe in treating similar cases similarly when it comes to ethics/morality. In other words, if we believe it's wrong to beat a human child for no good reason because they will suffer from a beating, then we should also believe that it's wrong to beat a dog, cow, or chicken for no good reason because the nonhuman will also suffer.

So, if we value moral consistency at all, which means we treat similar cases similarly, the minimum and only criteria needed to include nonhuman animals in our moral sphere (meaning we believe we should not harm them at all for no good reason) is that they feel pain, fear, and other sensations, since that is the minimum criteria we use to include humans in our moral sphere.

5. Any characteristic that humans claim to have that we claim makes us morally superior to nonhuman animals cannot be factually proven to be a humans-only trait. Unless we can prove that we are morally superior to nonhuman animals, any argument that we claim justifies intentionally harming and exploiting nonhumans can also be used to justify humans intentionally exploiting other humans:

https://legacyofpythagoras.wordpress...umans-superior

This means that if we personally are in favor of violating nonhumans' right to be safe from being enslaved, raped, tortured or killed by humans then we have no claim that we ourselves should be safe from having those same things done to us by other humans. Any argument we try to use to justify harm to nonhumans can also be used successfully by other humans to justify harming us in those same ways.

6. If we accept premises 1 through 4, our ethical/moral obligation is to either a) cease any actions that intentionally cause unnecessary suffering and death to other beings such as nonhuman and human animals, in which case we can claim that our interests in avoiding the same harms should not be dismissed without due consideration, and we can point to the fact that this is because we are morally consistent, or b) admit that we are not morally consistent and that any human who wishes to dismiss our interests in avoiding the same harms without due consideration is also morally justified in doing so.

Conclusion: If we don't stop intentionally exploiting nonhumans to the best of our ability, all the things we consider atrocities and major problems in the world will never end. We also will not be able to consider ourselves truly morally consistent people. To stop intentionally exploiting nonhumans completely means Abolitionist Veganism.
