Customizing 101 is about to begin for me. Got my parts and ready to sit down and finally learn how to do it this week. Got my seconds of a Dr. Strange and Captain Britain after testing the first ones I had for head fit and basic look before repaint. I'm fairly excited to begin the process of getting Count Nefaria into my collection.

Just saying guys. Get on this Kickstarter. We need these!!!! UKMU has bought up all the 3.75" Hydra figures. |
So I got the Marvel Select movie Ant-Man figure (I really really like it) and the shrunken version he comes with works great with my MU setup. He has no pose of course but he looks great all things considered and he's just shorter than Rocket Raccoon.
|
There's a 3.75 inch Doctor Who thread now...for those interested...
Thanks for the answers, btw. |
Quick showing of my MU collection(have to include G+ link because images require a URL for some reason). https://plus.google.com/111009415242...ts/7EZm9sJbgrz

The latest addition to my cosmic Marvel shelf...

Thanks! There were so many of Ionic Wonder Men pegwarming locally that I had to give it a shot. Quite pleased with the end result.

So, guys and gals, I know we all have different points of view on marvels recent "diversity" (forced and sad, or great and inspired? that's up to you) push. It's super obvious, almost, up until now. I want thoughts on this....
MOON GIRL & DEVIL DINOSAUR #1 Brings You a Girl and Her Prehistoric Pal This November - Comics - MarvelousNews.com Is anyone really uncomfortable with MOON BOY being replaced with a young black girl? I'm not one to read into things too much, but this seems... pretty racist. |

I don't like getting to deep into the discussion because I might end up accidentally saying something that could be interpreted as offensive, but I've got to agree. I'm 100% okay with Marvel diversity, but really? You can't just rebrand a character, slap on a different race, and boom. The same thing with gender swapping characters. It feels so forced. We'll just have to wait and see how it goes. |
nah, you're on point. Welcome to Di$ney'$ Marvel. Whatever makes a buck.

But where has Moon Boy gone in canon? |
Here's my stance on the diverse comics. I'd rather have new characters! Some of these guys have been killing it for 75+ years and we just kill them off turn them another race or sex and expect people to buy in. It's like Miles Morales who was born basically out of racist remarks. The character is forced and just not likable. But what Marvel is doing is not half as bad as DC. They literally made a character turn gay whose power comes from magic fire & weakness is wood. Like I said I'd rather have new characters. There is a total lack of creativity in everything across the board. Many of my African American friends tell me when talking about black characters, that there are not really any good ones. They're either the sidekick or the anti-hero, but forcing them into a famous hero is just as bad. I kinda agree with that. The Falcon thing does make sense and it is cool, but it's the same as Greyson as Batman it's just not Batman. We'll that's my two sense off to work.
P.S. I dig that Super Skrull. God knows I have thousands of them in my area. Maybe I should do this. |

This brings up a question: Has anyone seen any nice 3.75" Quasar customs? I'm dying to get him on my shelf with the Annihilators and if it isn't too tough I may give it a try since I seem to be in that mindset lately. And just to keep the pictures coming, an oldie... http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...psnlzso04h.jpg |

I really think that MI has slowed my customizing, I say this because they are literally making almost every figure that I made as a custom. Here is the list of figures I had already made that they have or are releasing: Whirlwind Bishop Black Cat Sandman BLUE Beast Doc Ock Vulture <- First Custom I ever made Chameleon Korg <- Never saw that coming Morbius LOCKJAW!!!<- Again Never saw that coming To be honest the Sandman wave was the hardest pill to swallow, 4 must have characters that I "already" had. I'm still avidly collecting and once the new wave hits HTS I will be placing an order, I'm think I'm just gun shy to make anything since you never know who is coming next. |
Indeed. I think I'm most likely going to stick to easy customs of characters that I strongly doubt will get made. Characters like Kl'rt, Jack Flag, Quasar, Captain Universe, Hellcat and Monica Rambeau.
Son of Satan and Doctor Spectrum are on my short list as well. |

Also saw an Emma frost on China bay loose for $30. I made some offers and was able to get a whole $2 off down to $28. F that I declined the offer. I used to be able to get the new loose figures for cheap but it looks like those days are over. |
