  1. Did I miss Series 86? this is not the one with Peter Porker, correct? Were these formally announced?
  2. Are we still talking Inferno? Is it N'astirh? S'ym? When will these be announced formally? This is my favorite X-Men era!
  3. now all we need are some Castlevania minimates and it will make the investment totally worth it!
  4. Pretty sure Kinder is owned by Ferrero. They are an Italian company. I used to have them all the time in Italy. They changed the packaging there. The packages are halved: one side has the egg and the other a creamy confection. They sell this style here in the US as well.
  5. The scale is a bit large (as is the price tag) but this diorama looks amazing! https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/182566?o=1
  6. The King and Queen https://imgur.com/E6QNL4m
  7. These are great. I was working on a Sylvie custom using one of the Loki ragnarok torsos. The black and green one. I have to dig it up. looks alot like the costume she wore during the 1st season http://www.minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=2917&n=Loki
  8. these are brilliant! Love that Nocturne, Fandral, and Scourge! Which torso piece did you use for Solo?
  9. the minimate stealth jet with the wings flipped forward actually makes a pretty good blackbird. very similar to the animated version. https://minimatescentral.com/m-a-x-tech-stealth-jet-translucent-black-tru-exclusive/
  10. wait, did you 3d print the entire figure?! That's amazing!
  11. So i just checked a few of my older customs. After a while, there was some creasing. If you just print the front of the torso and no wrap around, there shoul be no issue
  12. I did some trial and error but basically cut the torso section from the template and pasted it using MS paint (yes, that MS paint). I haven’t had a real issue with scraping and the pics have folded pretty will without obvious pealing, creasing or breaking. I bought a bundle with 2 extra paper packs during the holidays. So I have a few extra packs and haven’t had to buy a new pack yet.
  13. It’s pretty straightforward. I use the torso template with the side “wings,” paste a torso tampo into that space and the color the wings to match, I upload it into the app. It’s already close or at scale. Then I print it, cut it out, and peel off the back. There is no ink and the photos are pretty sharp. If the tampo is muddled, then so is the photo. I use photoshop or one of the equivalent to make the torso pic. It’s usually resized Lego art, making them less trapezoid and more square.
  14. the cost is definitely an issue but the prints are pretty sharp. I haven't found a consumer printer that prints quality photos in a while, at least not one that can also handle other jobs. most are office-based and the quality is iffy. I used to have a great printer that was also a great photo printer years ago but they stopped making ink for it. i guess the shift to social media has made at-home photo printing less of a priority.
