Heinous

I wouldn't get your hopes up 

Didn't realize how many customs I'm making since there's so few minimates coming out

Yelena Belova. This is a rare one for me, all QC parts, no paint (well except for the alt hair I made for her)

Hit Monkey. Suit body with arms as legs. Face is an old man Logan. Glasses were cut off Jack Bauer hair(I think) hands, feet and hair from werewolf by night. Tail from nightcrawler, Shaved off the point at the end

Matt Fraction Hawkeye. No specific parts.

Battle damaged Sabretooth. I picked up the torso from Zombie ST and repainted the orange to match the Jim Lee ST

Bulked up, all sand Sandman. The specific parts are obvious from terminator. The rest are random parts.

Classic characters aside, I'd have been happy if I could have gotten an X-23 to finish the All-New X-Men.

Shamless self promotion

Does that mean all of the QC Young Avengers I’ve just made will be all for naught?  Figures. That’s usually my luck. LoL 

Well now you have to share those

I never read any of the Young Avengers books. They just didn't interest me. Then again, most Marvel comics don't interest me. If you told me 15 years ago that I would no longer enjoy any of the X-Men comics I would have called you a liar. Unfortunately it has come true. The only Marvel comic that I am currently enjoying is Moon Knight. The Devils Reign event is pretty good too. The Necrosha story line is the last X-Men story I enjoyed. The stories just aren't fun anymore, Thankfully the Spawn comics have been great so far. I'm really enjoying Gunslinger after not really liking him when he was first introduced.

I really can't say you'll enjoy it because I don't know you, but it was a fantastic run if you ask me. It was only 12 solid issues. 

He's just gave us a huge give away. He said everyone will be happy. That means we're getting Young Avengers. Thanks, Zach! 

If we keep mentioning Young Avengers, it has to happen right? 

Young avengers. 

Kate, Hulkling, Iron Lad, Stature, patriot and Wiccan. 

Young avengers.

The number of villains that makes sense in a box set has been discussed. 

Four? Five? 

I would have bought the Deadpool set just for the training uniform, but at these prices I can make my own better version 

Clever little QC

With the new format, is a 6-figure wave required? Could a 5- or 7-pack be a possibility with lighter accessories and/or more alternate looks?

Right now I'm thinking a 7-pack with the 6 Runaways and an Old-Lace as an articulated 7th figure

 

If Old Lace was made, I'd very much expect it to be unarticulated (and probably a smidge too small) 

But I'd still buy the hell out of that set

Amazing! The paint of Kate’s sunglasses is pristine. Well done! 

Thanks! If you were to get a close look, you'll still little lines of gold but they are close enough ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ronin. Comic Ronin torso overlay, movie Ronin arms and legs, Phoenix sash and painted head 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CYhNouBJKAV/

Echo. Angela torso, mcu mandarin hair. Everything else is just painted (guest staring my custom hammerhead, Kingpin and owl) 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CYFKPyxp0CZ/

Kate Bishop. Viper face, I think mcu pepper pots hair. Everything else is painted 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CXhFiYfp9XU/

Klaw. All painted. His hand weapon is from Lego 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CWtqYQipXOa/

Wasp. Animated Wasp torso painted around the details. I think I used the harness and wings from mcu Wasp 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CSpguiXp5xz/

Doctor Voodoo. Cape from warlock, staff from some fear itself character, face from an Aliens character, I intend to make him and alt head with the Skull motif when I find another head to use 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CUQa-iep4kS/

Kid Loki. Crown from another Loki figure. Everything else was painted. Also feature my old Destroyer custom

Phew, didn't realize it's been so long since I've posted customs here. I don't even think that's all of them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah wresting figures would be great. 

Soley for fodder and cool props.

so i finally opened mine after about a week or so of having them, they look great! and it’s fun seeing them alongside the older mates

Dark Phoenix was in major need of an update!

I never cared for Venom in comics but DST has done some fun stuff with him. The fact that there are so many Minimates of him works well with such a morphtastic character.

Same here, I couldn't care less about but find myself using him more often than I ever thought I would only bc of his options

I made one a few years ago, using bits from Thor and Dr. Fate. I think he's got one of the best looks out there, and multiple configurations.

 

When I do my custom, I'm going for the older version with cape. But wow that custom is great

I don't know if has been mentioned, but I have always thought a "1602" themed set would be pretty sweet. Some very different costumes for most of the characters...Plus its one of my favorite looks for Thor!

I'd also love a Squadron Supreme comic set.

Oh, an also something that would get me a blue Marvel!

I also love the handbook idea, there are so many cool older characters in there with awesome costumes.

Yes to Blue Marvel! I seriously doubt we'll ever get one so he's on my list of customs to do

I know DST isn't keen on straight reissues but, damn, there are certain characters that should be readily available at retail. Imagine trying to get into this line but the last time a vanilla 616 Spider-Man was offered was ten years ago. All the more reason to continue offering Best of/Greatest Hits assortments.

Maximum carnage Spidey was offered 2 or so years ago 

Coming from an action figure photographer, I know it's hard based on his costume, but I'd really like a new Dr Doom that is more posable. I feel like I'll be using the new Infamous Doom a lot more than classic Doom. 

Luke, say they do offer you another set like multiple man and you sell out fast, would there an option to re order more or would be that order and that's it? 

I'd say get ready to start spending money these days. 

There's definitely recent waves you can get stuff cheap but most cool or classic characters might set you back a bit (but the good thing is "set you back" doesn't mean what it means with marvel legends) 

I'd definitely say check out Lukestoystore.com , he does sales pretty frequently that has loose minimates and accessories. Plus he makes custom items. 

Lastly, if you're on Instagram, I'd say get into the community. If you are, I'll give you suggestions of pages to follow.
