Picked up Red Hulk, finally. When I saw my nearest Target list him as “in stock” I wasted no time and placed the order, lest I lose out to the scalper scum in my area. Picked him up this afternoon. Man, every head sculpt they’ve done for this mold has been amazing, but this one tops them all.

Here is my finished Selene. I was just going to do the head and cape swap so I could switch it back to Emma if I wanted, but I found a second one (classic head was stolen) during the Walgreens secret sale.

Originally, I was going to remove the collar from the cape, but with the short hair, I like how it looks.

That's really awesome, good job!

Wow. Really nice job on that Selene!

Thanks everyone.

I've been using Liquitex Heavy Body because my wife already had a lot of colors and an airbrush. The shade is Mars Black. It pretty much matches the black plastic they make ML figures with. I painted the very bottom of the upper arms and the forearms too, because it was easier than removing the paint on them. If any one is wondering, the boot tops came from movie Sif.

It didn't even occur to me that you meant the thighs because I didn't paint them. The hips and thighs are from White Rabbit. Some of the female figures have legs that just pop off at the hips for easy swaps.
I hate painting fleshtone. I posted a White Queen awhile back that I blended a flesh color for. I go out of my way to swap parts to avoid painting as much as possible.

Double post.

9th times the charm for me. I saw several Targets in my area of TN had him in stock and placed several orders. Only one came through though.

[Trivial Psychic]

A little while back, I noticed a KO Pizza Spidey figure on Aliexpress that had been done up in the "Far From Home" enhanced suit, only in a comic style. I thought it looked really cool and thought "why the hell not?" and went ahead and ordered it.



It finally arrived today, and man...I'm actually blown away by the quality of it. In hand, it feels like anything else but a knock off, and it does a lot of things better than any of Hasbro's. He comes with a ton of accessories, and makes me wonder why Hasbro can't follow suit.



There's a tiny bit of paint splotching here and there, but I'm amazed how clean the paint apps and line work on the figure is. The spider on the front and on the back of the suit is particularly clean...it's not this precise on my official Hasbro version. The figure also has a couple of interesting changes to it's design, such as Revoltech styled ball joints at the wrists, which give the figure both side to side and roll of the dice motions.



The figure also comes with three different heads, featuring the mask, Pizza Spidey Mask, a comic Peter Parker and a Tom Holland headsculpt, which while not as sharp as they could be (since Hasbro uses the face print tech) still looks pretty good. It also comes with a pair of "Edith" glasses, which look pretty good on the Holland headsculpt, but work with any of them really. And yes...your eyes don't deceive you, that's a calf rotation and toe joint on that Pizza Spidey body.



Besides his Pizza Spidey Brother...



and a couple of non KO clones...

Was totally not expecting much out this guy since he is in fact a KO figure, but he does so many things right, and I'm very pleased with the pickup. He's also not very expensive...I was able to get him for about 13 bucks shipped using one of AliExpress's many coupons, and while shipping is a drag since it's coming from overseas, but it was well worth the wait.

Where is that cape from? Both customs definitely look good.

Nice! Though honestly my main attention is on the Widow. Gonna need at least three of her, if I can even find her.

The cape is from the Walmart exclusive Classic Black Panther. I also used this same cape for my Selene a while back...though I chopped the collar of it off.



Alternatively, it also came with the original Hasbro Adam Warlock figure...though you'd have to paint it black as that one was colored differently.

She shouldn’t be too hard to find. She’s six per case whereas Red Hulk is only 3 per case. Brickseek and Popfindr show that several Targets in my area have her in stock (she’s street dated for March 29) and I’ve seen her out on the pegs at a couple already. Her DPCI is 087-16-5725.

She’s sold out on the site but it may get updated on the 29th to allow in store pick up.

Thanks. I have that figure and just couldn't place it lol.

[legendsforever]

Could someone help me whenever they got the chance to give me the DCPI codes for the black widow wave so I could check target. I can’t find them anywhere.

[Trivial Psychic]

All of my local targets are showing the Deadly Origins figure as being in stock, but none have yet to place them on the shelves. Looks like they may be holding true to that street date, which is funny because Lego and roleplay product (mostly Taskmaster masks) have already hit the shelves.

I'm thinking that it might not quite as hard to find Widow as it was for many to find Red Hulk. She might even be as well stocked as the previous Kree Captain Marvel exclusive was.

Well you convinced me. I love the FFH suit but the Hasbro one left much to be desired. Looking forward to getting this in 19-39 days!

WOW. That's a really cool custom! I may have to steal that...

Can anyone that has the Target Black Widow in-hand confirm if the silencer on that one pistol is removable or not? It'd be nice to have just two normal pistols if you want.

[legendsforever]

I just picked up the Black Widow at Target and the silencer is not removeable. I also grabbed Crossbones and Winter Solider. I don't usually collect the movie figures but I couldn't help but grab that Taskmaster. He is just way too cool to pass on. I just wanted to say I'm a long time lurker on this board and I've always loved reading the comments of my fellow collectors. I hope everyone stays safe in these difficult times.

Thanks. It's not stealing if you have to make your own. It is Dazzler arms, White Rabbit legs, and Sif boot tops.

Classic(ish) Red Skull. Does anyone have a Vision from the Kate Bishop 3-pack? I just need the fists, but I would buy the whole figure. I am also looking for the sword from the black Invincible Iron Man.


I am out of work and spending too much time at home. Kitbashing for the hell of it. I guess it's my new Protector of the Parts Bin.
