Integration

Opened up all my news toys yesterday, from being gone for nearly 3 weeks. Abomination wave, most of the Terrax BAF pieces (Shout out to Kirathis for that, thank you!) and TB wave 5 Mr. Fantastic (the Thing arrived right before I left.)

I don't have pictures but I really almost wish I hadn't bought Mr. Fantastic. His arms are a major frustration to remove the stretchy items and replace with the normal ones. In fact, still working on trying to get them on, and I have already got two bleeding knuckles from trying to do so. On top of that he has this really weird smell. No I don't go around sniffing my action figures, but his is really strong. The one good thing though was unlike most TB ML he did not come with a zillion twist ties, just pops right out of the plastic.

Abomination wave: really like them all actually. I will definitely put the spare Captains to use for customs. I really like the line the Captain Britain toes between between being lean muscular and bulky muscular. While Scarlet Witch was my most anticipated in hand she is not my favorite, I actually think Wonder Man is. Eel, as the brand new never done before figure, is disco-tastique and exactly what I expected, in a good way. Iron Skull and Captain America are the lower points of the wave for me but still good figures. Actually the only figure I'm not liking (but still keeping ) is the Abomination because of the coloring choices.

I also found an extra Kitty Pryde (not for sale!) that I'm going to use to make a custom. I love this figure as Kitty but I also love that she is the perfect body for generic X-Women outfits. I will probably end up being several more.

Now the wait for the Strange wave is on, and more painful for me than these last three since I am not going to buy as a case....
