Many thanks Whenever a new Marvel minimate figure is solicited I always think about whether it is 'deserved' . That might sound a bit pompous of me & probably is but it works for me Bullseye is deserved. We've had 4 Bullseyes ( I wait for the response "4?" ) & the last one was (apart from a zombie) 15 years ago ! It is expensive on eBay & was pretty rare even when it was released IMHO. Good choice . I have to agree that ...with my new found knowledge....a Bullseye army builder seems wishful thinking . I am not up to speed on Echo as a character but a brief trawl of the internet reveals that her suit/uniform is hardly 'unique' & I can think of several existing Minimates that 'would do the job' . -pompousheadsmate

Excuse my ignorance but how is this version of Bullseye an army-builder ?

My lack of comment in this thread is not relative to my absolute love of it . Stunning work .

Merry Christmas to you all !

I initially thought it might be 'Ego' ....I actually typed that response & then deleted a couple of days ago . There is a Marvel Legend Ego but I only know that because I googled it I stalled because of the '8 years ' bit. Ego.

Chooch's misfortune did not warrant my attempt at humour , no harm meant . Well done Zach for sorting this out for him. A happy end to his tail.

I would've preferred a whole Fugitoid !

Luke, I now recall you showing me these before & I was stumped then . There are still kubricks that appear online (in Japan) that are new to me , generally they are promos & generally they are still bagged so that makes it easier to verify them as genuine kubricks.My gut feeling is that these are not kubrick promos & I am fairly certain they are not mainstream. Are there peg holes on the bottom of the feet ?

The feet look right, the hands look right . Please can you show me the back of the leg printing ?

Struth ! My best mate emigrated to Oz in 1982 , I saw 'Dundee' 4 years later & I was hooked on the idea of eventually going out & meeting up with my old cobber one day. 1988 saw me spending months in hospital after a car crash , during those months I decided that "F*ck it" I won't be waiting around any longer when I get out of here . 1989 I arrived in Brisbane ,fell in love with Australia & returned another 4 times over the next 10 years! My point ...if you're missing it...is that Crocodile Dundee wasn't just a movie, it was, for me, an epiphany .

Bearbricks ? You just have to admire the amount of licences that they have covered which is mind-boggling but they are visually horrendous IMHO. Fake & trick ....they are the ones with the clock/meters on their faces /chests I recall ? The irony of Hitchcock kubricks wasn't lost on me

Kubrick cases, that most of my displayable kubricks are housed in, are unbeatable . Why on earth are the bases on these ones black ? Kubrick cases were 'similar' yet so dissimilar .....they had clear bases that incorporated a stud for holding the figure & were stackable upwards ,downwards & sideways . Kubrick cases are (were?) beautifully designed . They were also expensive but they also became 'de rigueur' for those nutty collectors who had opened their blind-box packaged kubricks ......you could open your package & then entomb your figure in its new ,clear ,visually enjoyable Medicom approved case . Then you could stack it up with the rest of the collection . They were nigh on perfect... except when you wanted to get at the ones in the middle of the stack ! minimateship - I remember the cubes , somewhere in a box they do lie .

12/6 ? Can you be a bit more Pacific ? -beachhutsmate .....your favourite chum

I've just ordered the latest Kubrick figures which are a standard size (100%) & a 400% 'Alfred Hitchcock '. I can't get too excited by them because ,TBQH ,they look extremely weird ....even for kubricks ! They look more like Bearbricks 'bodywise' with Hitchcock stylised heads.

You 2 , elhonez & cylonchaney are the clever f*ckers not me
