I did think about tricking them out with some accessories, and a cardboard box was at the top of my list. I also thought about making a Calvinball, but then you'd have to make a whole Calvinball field, and I'm not made of playsets.....

The Calvinball would be the easy. All you have to do is find a Lego Soccer ball and that's done. Setting up the field on the other hand would require more time than trying to analyze the full set of rules pre-game.

What's that, you say? Is there more at my blog, including another picture with the sweet Mister Miracle and Big Barda customs I got from Luke, and some decals? Why yes... yes there is.

I'm posting this both here, in the Modifying Marvel 'mates thread, and my own customs thread. Sorry if you read it more then once!

So the other day I bought a second Blastaar from Luke, since it's part of his great March sale and I wanted to use his hairpiece for something. So, when he came I took off the hairpiece and stuck the rest of him in my fodder bin. Yesterday, I was digging through there looking for some parts, and Blastaar ended up in my hand. My five year old daughter was hanging out with me (she likes to build Minimates from my scraps), and she saw Blastaar and said "I know who that is. That's Darkseid". I started to say "no, actually that's..." and I stopped, and took another look at him. Hmmm, Darkseid, you say?

Not bad, right? I mean, it's not perfect, but that's a pretty darn good bulked up Darkseid. Thanks, Delia!

That is great, good work Delia. Dad must be very proud :)

Nice thumbsup.gif

Heard the one about the self proclaimed spelling-fascist ,DC unaware ,English guy who arrived on this board years ago who convinced himself that nobody but he could spell Darkside properly blush.png ?

I always said it as 'Darkseed', no one had ever corrected me, and I hadn't ever seen him in any form of 'loud' media. Then Smallville came out and changed all that.

Thanks for all your kind words, guys! I told Delia how much everybody liked her custom, and she's very proud. Remember this story when he's running for Best Quick Custom this time next year!laugh.png

That is really cool! Well done, Delia! (Time someone teaches your dad some customizing skills... )

Sad but true....unsure.png

All this talk recently about Spider-Man villains made me want to post some of the Spidey related customs I've done over the years:

Swarm's not my formula, but I decided to post him to remind everybody about what a cool, easy custom he is. You'll find more formulas and decals at my blog.
