The raw materials are in-hand...the custom begins!

I'm jealous of your X-23 with clean paint apps. ^^

[Dolemite]

Zoom in. Those apps aren't that clean.

Cleaner than the one I have. Mine looks like it was painted blindfolded...during a hurricane...by foot.

Look forward to the results, yes? Would have been better if Hasbro had made this version instead of Death’s Head II, no? He got the shaft in the comics and the toyline. As he said on the cover to his own mag: “bum deal, yes?”

No promises, but you can try asking these people. They make custom cast parts.

Hasbro made a Death's Head Marvel Universe figure...I think it'll only be a matter of time before them make a proper Legends version. That's why I'm going with his brown & red look from his appearance in the What If? comic for my custom, since if Hasbro DOES eventually make one, they'll probably go with his classic yellow & blue look.

Seriously, check out What If? vol. 2, issue 54, "What If Death's Head 1 had lived." Best Death's Head story ever, and according to the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe this story is considered canon, meaning that the original Death's Head is alive and well. If you don't have a copy of that issue of What If?, PM me and I'll get you a digital version. I just recently put a lot of work into scanning and cleaning-up a copy and I'd love to share it with someone who'd appreciate it.

I'm glad the original Death's Head has been popping up in different books these past few years and he even had a four-issue mini-series last year. I'm hoping we don't have to wait too long for a Legends figure, still bummed that we got Minion before the real Death's Head.


I wonder what the chances are that Hasbro will gives us a Xemnu, he could at least partially reuse parts from the Sasquatch mold.

Yeah, the mini-series wasn't bad. Not the best DH story ever, but I was just glad he actually got something new.

Hmmm... so, further evidence that the Rogue and Pyro set IS movie-based, wouldja lookit that...

[Thor Laserpunch]

Anyone know where I can get male fists? Chinese ones on ebay seem to be all female. Basically looking for someplace that already has them listed for sale, not trying to have to communicate with the person casting them if possible.

I’m really surprised how much more this vest adds to the new Crossbones figure. Part of me wants to kitbash a Hydra goon Crossbones, but I don’t think it would turn out worth foddering out a Hydra soldier.

I see you put Emma Frost on a pedestal all by herself. She must be your favorite.

Thanks.
That picture makes it look better than it is. It is the Select Colossus. I removed the shirt and sculpted the abs and belt. The X logo is hand painted. I haven't really sculpted anything before and it looks a bit rougher in person. Same with the black paint. I also cut and shaved the calves down to make him a bit shorter, but I still need to add some paint to cover up the marks. I will post a pic of just Colossus later.

[Panther]

Thanks to Dorkside and Hasbro Pulse, I have Stan Lee, and the four figures I wanted from the Black Widow wave. I'm set until the release of the 20th Century Fox X-Men figures. I collect Theatrical figures, so I knew this would be a year where I would save a bunch of money, but with everything going on in the world, I will wait as long as I need to.

Got this one in a trade for a few of the Marvel Unlimited exclusives that I had sitting around. I was extremely close to throwing down the cash for one on eBay, right until this deal fell into my lap.
