Modifying Marvel Minimates

so I don't know about the rest of you folks, but I am actually pretty pumped for Secret Wars. not so much for whatever the hell disaster of continuity comes afterwards but for the actual event itself. a comic book about a bunch of Thors, an X-Men comic based on the 1992 cartoon, a new Runaways title starring Valeria Richards....but the one I am most stoked for is the new Planet Hulk where Captain America teams up with Devil Dinosaur!!! and has to fight to survive in a land full of evil Hulks. I mean, that concept is just begging to be a 1980s Saturday Morning Cartoon.

hopefully we get some really great waves outta this event, but until then I went ahead and made myself a Captain America The Barbarian.

and here he is riding his noble friend.

if ever there was an excuse to give us a Build A Figure, it's gotta be Devil Dinosaur.

Can you confirm what the dino is ?

in the comic book or the one I used? it's definitely Devil Dinosaur in the comic. this toy dino is some crap from Target. whatever the heck the plastic toy animals they sell in those bins.

I was considering painting a lego t-rex red and giving it minimate arms, but Im not sure it would look minimate enough.

that's a good idea, it would look better than my current Devil at least.

I really love the QC Generation X Banshee I put together, but was really excited to get the official one, so I could give his cape & scream (and flight stand) to his daughter! :D

This is gonna end up being the most repurposed wave ever. So many great pieces for quick customs.

AoU Thor repaint.

I had an extra with a Milk Mustache face, so decided to repaint one and add a waist riser.

Painted the armor with a metallic black wash and then repainted all the silver detailing To make it pop. Repainted the Cape a slightly darker red.

Gave the hairpiece a light wash and repainted it a lighter blonde.

Weathered Meow-Meow a bit, too.
