A lot of people seem to be really enjoying the Mach-1 figure, but I just wasn't feeling it. It's those giant, goofy looking, open hands that throw off the look of the entire figure for me, so I began digging around in my bin for a replacement.

Thank you to Nova for being the lucky donator! Took a little bit of care getting them off, and a tiny bit of modding to get the fit just right (as they use the old "cone" adapter system,) but now my Mach-1 has the perfect set of fist hands (waiting for the easy jokes) and this guy is looking alright with me. As a bonus, Mach-1's old open hands work with Nova as well, so if you don't mind him having an open handed look, you'll barely be able to tell the difference.



The new Mar-Vell also has fists that work, but they appear a bit oversized for my tastes. Black Bolt also has the correct shade and size, though though might want to drybrush a tiny bit of metallics on it for a perfect match.

Also, if you have any of the Transformers Earthrise/WFC Target Master figures, many of the blast effects can actually be fitted onto his blaster gauntlet (though they do fall out rather easily...some sticky tack or an art gum eraser can easily fix that. White Rabbit's machine gun umbrella effect works too, and I've also seen people on IG using effects from the Overwatch figures as well, so those are worth the time experimenting with.
