Thank you Von Pooten. I get it. Gotta update myself! Haha. Ok so I need yet another account to host my photos, so I can access for posting. It's way too complicated for me, but once I get a couple hours, i will figure it out. Thanks for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated.
And I agree with you. Hellcat and Misty are must for old timer fans like me, but their legs are a nightmare to make them stand. Crap plastic. Thou I love that they wer made at all, but still no excuse. Also, trying to find a non-derpy eyed Misty, was hard. I have the impression that the new Rogue might also suffer from this. Still haven't got mine, but I'm praying my Rogue is not too bad....
Thanks again.

No problem mate. :) Once you upload your desired photos onto one of those sites, it's a simple matter of inserting the images into your post, and they should adjust the size automatically to fit the forum.

Misty does have a penchant for the wandering eye.. Luckily it's nothing a quick repaint can't fix!

Edit: Just saw your reviews of Jean and Kitty. Yeah... Since the reveal at Toy Fair, I could tell that Phoenix was one of the cheap figures. Not too fond of the reuse of her Jim Lee head, since that one wasn't great from the get go, but for Phoenix? Phoenix needs to have wild hair and, most importantly, not look bored. The Toy Biz figure got it right, so I might swap their heads.

On the whole though, she seems like a decent fill-in until we get another Jean down the line!

Wait,so the new Wolverine's claws are like clear almost?

I just opened my order from BBTS, and yeah I can confirm that they're a weird translucent-ish white plastic. I really don't care for it. Probably going to use a silver Sharpie to make them look better.

I hear you. I felt in love with Jean in the middle of the Phoenix saga, just after Kitty was introduced, and Dazzler if I recall. When Jean calmed down Kitty etc. But somehow, no one has got that John Byrne Phoenix. No toys, nor statues.
I love the Toybiz Phoenix, but the hands and hips were terrible, hair was good, and face was ok. I mean how difficult is to watch the most revelant Jean Grey story, and sculpt something as glamorous, and mysterious as that lady was?
I might be byas, as that was my introduction to the X-men. But I do find still Jean and Storm, were at the sexiest, most powerful and alluring.

Harbinger 07-13-2016 06:52 PM

That's a good idea. I just need to make sure I don't get the marker on his hands.

I want a New Scorpion now Dammit!

TheBlueMarvel 07-13-2016 07:51 PM

The old Scorpion will be very hard to top. Gimmick aside, the fig featured a stand-out/one of a kind sculpt and a tail that could be posed...I'm not suggesting that it couldn't be improved, but Hasbro (outside of Machine Man) hasn't shown us much in the pose friendly 'prehensile appendage' department...

I was watching Shartimus's review and he popped off the claws easy peasy.

Yeah they old one is perfect and doubt it could be better but is so expensive on line. I haven't been able to find one under $30 loose

Captain Nash 07-13-2016 08:09 PM

I'm wavering on Scorpion for $60 from Amazon. Now that I realize all this time I've completely forgotten about him, I want one bad lol. He is green after all (Enchantress, Sauron, Polaris, modern Madrox, Sersi...it's a running theme for me.)

Oh and, nice custom ideas! Can I ask who you're ordering them from, or are you making them yourself? Either way, you should definitely post pictures when they're complete. :)

I will definitely have a stand ready for Misty, I had a similar leg issue with Scarlet Witch. I'm doing the customs myself, for Psylocke I'm using the 3pk Ms Marvel body, with swapped hands, and Silk's unmasked head. She-Hulk I'm using Thundara as the base and I'm using a MOTUC head, I wish there wasn't so much white one her costume though, I hate white paint. For Storm I got a cast head from CLayorrNot when I got Psylocke's sword. At first I was going to use Cyclone from DC Direct's hair, but since getting the head the Mohawk has grown on me and I'm going to do 80's punk Storm, I just need to pick up an Anne O'Brien for her Jacket

He is my favorite Villain in marvel. I regret not buying him at my comic book store about a year ago they had him loose for only $10 and chose not to get him and I'm still pissed about it.

He said he did some type of modification in his review.

All he did was replace them with the claws from the X-Force boxset IIRC


He had a tutorial on how to pop the claws off and you basically just have to pull them off a certain way.

So kind of bittersweet. But will look great on the background of my 80's X-men.

Love that shot with the Select fire-bird!! Looks amazing!

Just saw both of these. Flag is a head sculpt away from hydra commando, and if done right, we could probably turn harley into MJ or civilian gwen

Another option would be the jacketed lara croft from the second tomb raider flick. Since the arms on that fig are interchangable you dont even have to heat it up. Imma have to get a 2nd eili now....as i love that very simple idea for P-sylocke. You mind if i appropriate that idea?

Heres to hoping we get a solo figure soon...especially since hes getting a new series wgain AND he looks seriously badass in his new duds. (Green is my fave color too ;))

I do agrre that scorpion is stood up against time. I wish i still had mine.

Heh... I listened to the song and while it's not exactly related to what I was talking about, and not really my style of music, I found it entertaining/funny and the sound arrangement was pretty enjoyable (kind of a retro-garage/punk feel - I like post-punk groups such as the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs...classic punk like the Ramones...and proto-punk like Iggy Pop) thanks for the heads-up...

About Scorpion, I never let go of much in the way of Legends figs. Only broken and flawed toys get the boot.

Thirty bucks is doable in my estimation. I seriously doubt Hasbro could do more than come close to tying the Toy Biz effort (nearly matching, but ultimately falling a bit short). The only flaw with the TB classic Scorpion was the ill-advised tail missile. If you were suggesting the price Nash mentioned, then I'd agree wholeheartedly with scoffing at the price.

What about loose, man? Half the price for a stellar fig, but this suggestion only works if you aren't a MOC collector.

I don't remember seeing a tutorial in the video, interesting.

I might consider it. I haven't used ebay in....forever and ever (at least well over a decade, maybe 2001 even). So everything has been in packaging. I'm afraid what floodgates may open if I start it.
