  1. That would look really disproportionate. Thor doesn't have a super muscled physique or anything, he's just big all over. Big arms would look really, really off. THose arms look preeeeeettttty big to me. Wolvie's always crouching so that doesn't bother me as much.
  2. If pre-orders for the current assortment warrant it, DST could certainly replace figures with whatever has been approved and is ready for production. I doubt retailers and consumers would have much trouble with having characters that look cooler than Selvig and Darcy (and another Loki, for that matter). That said, one of the reasons I love Minimates is because they offer characters like Darcy at all. I know Loki's a big deal (my daughter's got a huge crush on him) so maybe it's time for DST to consider doing a "Best of" series for Marvel movies. That would allow new collectors to play catch-up on repeat supporting characters while freeing up space in movie assortments for cool, new ones. (Terrible idea, I know. Just spit-ballin'.) I took it from Zach that this is it, game, set, and match. Also they said that they only have the licenses for movies for a year so I don't know how a Best of would work.
  3. Crap... I wish I knew how to do spoilers in the meantime I will vaguely answer that is a question I think Marvel is getting to answer.
  4. Not to sound like an ingrate but is there a reason why Thor doesn't have bulked up arms?
  5. Now if only I knew what to do with it...
  6. Still working on my Firestar but very excited that she is joining the X-Men. Finally after 30 years! still trying to figure out the approach for the flesh paint.
  7. Thanks Sersi is just an AOA Jean in her chest and croth with a sharpie to fill in the chesticles. Black legs that are sporting Thor boots painted red. Captain America Avengers Team jacket. Jean Grey face and then Aurora hair. I'm not that great of a customizer so I work with easy parts and less painting. So, yeah, that's my blog. I haven't checked this thread in awhile, and imagine my surprise to see my Power Pack staring back at me! They were posted in my customs thread as well. Thanks for the kind words, threreasonsy. I think I have an extra set of decals sitting around, so if you PM me your address I'll drop them in the mail. You are making my day.
  8. Tell me about it. He may get his own bin in my apartment of just Wolverine's.
  9. So I had the pieces lying around and here is how Storm looks with that Jacket on. The issue is the choker doesn't let the head completely connect with the piece so it kinda floats there. Also, standing next to Storm is Sersi from her Avengers/Ultraforce glory days. Still looking for the right belt piece for her.
  10. It's awesome. Email me and I can shink it for you if you want.
  11. Age of Ultron. AKA AVengers 2 now sadly..
  12. Stupid question but is Nova going to have Slipper feet? In reality he is only 14 years old.
  13. Extremely dark green. If you look closely, it is. Eh, I can't tell! Damn color blindness! Either way I can swap out the hair for green hair from Shulkie if need be. I love the little Red Wing accessory! Almost as cute as Lockheed. I can't wait to display Red Wing with Lockheed, Lock Jaw, and then Marvel Legends' Miss Lion. Pet Avengers is almost complete.
  14. Falcon, Winter Solider, Madame Hydra, Hydra, and Absorbing Man! Wow. Finally!!!! But Doesn't Viper have Green hair?
  15. I can totally understand that. I didn't know the characters myself until someone here started campaigning for them. Since then, i've read them a little in Runaways. A box set is probably too hard a sell.... but it'd be great if we could maybe have them slipped into a few waves. They don't need to all come at once. Scattering them throughout a few assortments would probably make sense from your end... so long as they don't end up like FA Beast. LOL I do like the idea that Marvel Legends is doing where they had two of the figures share a slot Pile Driver/Bulldozer and then we just need three slots total.
  16. Same thing people said about the Thunderbolts set. And that seemed to change alot of opinions when it was shown. Personally, I will take a more wait and see approach. Even if it is Age of Ultron, it'd pretty friggin sweet to have an Angela minimate. That's the rub. I know I am going to buy the set regardless because it is good for scraps but that doesn't mean I have to like it. I'll be annoyed if Angela gets a mate before mainstays of the Marvel U.
  17. So I just finished off Val and now have my complete Richards Family unit. I tried an Alice hair piece on her to see if that would give her more of a feminine touch but that didn't work for me. For some reason the pink legs popped into my head. I am not 100% convinced but for now am happy.
  18. I am all for this. Even a Hellfire Club 4 pack would work with Shaw, Leland, Pierce and sewer Wolverine. Yes, I am that desperate for this pack.
  19. I'm referring to exactly what stack and xexion just said really. I know we are getting some great new characters in 50 and 51 but they are imminent (I hope!) and after that we currently have very few if any new characters (and certainly classic ones) announced to look forward to. Plus we have known about 50 in particular and 51 for a long time now, hence my point that it seems ages since any new character announcements. Like I said I appreciate that many of the sets that have been announced lately are very popular with board members, they just haven't been ones that appeal to me personally. But as we know you can't please all the people all the time. I think that is the trick of press releases. Say something too soon and we are bored when the date arrives. Plus weren't these waves held? I feel your pain about not getting characters that you want/are clamoring for. I know that every character is someone's favorite but it is tough when I know that besides Phoenix, all of my favorite characters are C or D list and odds of getting them are beyond slim to none.
  20. I think the component of Angela wasn't set but the rest of it was. For all we know they were going to intro Marvel Man but then something happened with those rights again.
  21. High 5! SInce they weren't posted here I sadly assumed the person wasn't a poster here. Well, now is as good a time as any to show my finished Franklin Richards. Sadly, the parts for Val haven't come in just yet. The reciepe was just a Mr. Fantastic (the first one) with a Flame on Torch Hair with a Peter Pan Tootle's legs and a Michael Darling face. HERBIE is from the FF Three Pack from Marvel Universe. I will update later with Val.
  22. Wait a holy pronoun second there... The Villian is male but the new character's gender isn't revealed BUT is a relatively new character not a classic? My money is on Abigal Brand for the win. She is popular but not a classic and relatively new in Marvel speak continuity wise.
  23. The songbird is making me crave a Genis Marvel. We almost have the complete Avengers Forever lineup. Now THAT was a good yarn.
  24. These are not mine but I just HAD to share. This guy, dinosaursinf14s, has a great blog and I am so freaking jealous of his Power Pack. You should all take a look. It makes me wish I was a better painter/decal user. I would totally buy these in store. *** Note the multiverse wasn't letting me link the image correctly so I had to put the image on my photo bucket.
