Don't think that your own impressive posing abilities have escaped my notice! It's nice to see that other collectors get it; these figs give us an opportunity to create art. They aren't just baubles to collect and horde. They aren't things to boast to other people about having in some vain attempt to create envy...I see them as gateways that allow us to participate in a medium that we love. We get the chance to create unique takes on heroes from our childhood. Many of us, have been posing figs since we were children...and it often shows!

As adults, when time permits, we have the ability to create images that appear as though they were ripped right from the pages of our favorite books! With an active imagination, some time, and a half-way decent camera (I'm with you in the crappy camera boat - 10 yr old digital jammy -every time I think to buy a new one, more figs show up ) we can create some very cool pop-art...
I couldn't agree more! These new figures allow us, as adult fans, to accomplish things that the 90's figures couldn't even comprehend. Posing and figure photography is all part of the fun of collecting, and we, as you said, are able to recreate classic/favourite scenes from the comics, or make new ones of our own!

I never got a chance to thank you for the head's up on the bootleg purple/black Tamashii flames. I now have three purple ones, so thanks for that mate.

I'll let you know when my enormous Avengers vs X-Men diorama is finally completed. You can expect a message in 3-4 years!

Great idea! I was keeping an eye out for the green flames with Quan Chi in mind, but Brother Voodoo would be even better.
