...and then there's this Stay Puft Mugg (not sure if this is breaking any miniLaws, since he's not a miniMate custom) And this Crappy-simulated-glow-in-the-dark-picture.

So here's phantasm dopplegangers from the RGB "Citizen Ghost" episode. The ecto-parts all glow in the dark, and there's also and RGB Terror Dog for fun.

Sweet! Real Ghostbusters miniMates aplenty next year? Awesome. Any idea when we'll see who's going to be made?

Wow! Michonne and her dead ex and his pal are great. Really washes the bad taste out of my brain from the bizarre Walking Dead episode ending/preview of the finale for next week.

So, another update way after the last post in this thread....and it's not even necessarily a good one...unless you like things that are awesome. So here's Janine Melnitz and Slimer, to go with the rest of the completed Real Ghostbusters. Blurry group shot in front of custom RGB 6 inch figures: And a miniMate based on the coolest Michael J. Fox film that wasn't about time travel; I give you the Boy From The Future...er, Teen Wolf: As usual, my picture taking isn't the greatest. Teen Wolf has darker tan detailing on his face that's barely showing up. The basketball is detachable, I made it basically like a bowling ball. A miniature, orange, sculpted bowling ball.

Wow, I'm completely unfamiliar with Scott Pilgrim, but those are awesome miniMates. That sculpted hand on Scott is great. I'm kicking myself for not picking up some of these books at Wizard World this weekend. These customs are making me want to read this series quite a bit.

If Terror Dogs weren't so hard to get on the cheap, Drool would be a possibility. Calamari is on the list right next to guy from Ragnarok+Roll, easy to do but kind of plain. I'm working on Ghash/Mr. Ugly, and I'm trying to find super small water bottle-like objects that could be used as miniMate backpacks, because if I can't find anything like that, then I'm going to scrap three that I'm working on. I'm hoping to pick up some custom fodder for cheap at Wizard World this weekend. Yeah, I really should've done that before finishing the legs, I'm kind of scared that I'll mess up the joints if I apply anymore heat. It's no noticeable in person, I just took a bunch of pics from a lower angle since that's the only way I can get acceptable lighting in my house. Also, random bonus pic, here's a painting I did of the Boogeyman yesterday. I didn't look at anything for reference, which is probably why he doesn't have a tie or pointed nose.

No love for Samhain or Grundel, eh? Maybe the Boogeyman? (Or Boogieman if you prefer) So this monster has an original size miniMate head (Bark at the Moon Ozzy) with the hole filled in so it fits properly. The feet are sliced to be hooves, and the legs are made from two sets, so they are double jointed and satyr like. Crazy mini-technology at it's finest.

Great work! That Birghtest Day Brand (Aliveman?) is "dead"-on.

He is feasible, but he just looks insane without a nose (plus the fact that he's cobbled together like no other miniMate before doesn't help). Thanks for the links jcastick, but I meant more so of the top of anyone's head. I have the all the episodes on DVD, and I'm familiar with a lot of the ghosts, I was just curious if there were any from the perspective of a casual fan/ non-fan that really stuck out. Like if someone was like "Hey, the bird of Kildarby would make a great miniMate!" I could say ok, that wouldn't work, but great idea! Also, I would really like to make the random ghosts from the end of the cartoon intro/that were used on random products (the ones from the first link you sent jcastick), but I really can't envision them in miniMate form, they are too crazy. Anyway, enough of my jabber; here's Samhain and the Grundel. More ghosts "soon"........ Also, also, updated a few more links at the start of this thread in my first post!

Meh....I've been waiting around for some miniMates I've ordered online to come in (they have crucial parts needed to make ghosts and Janine) and it feels like it's taking fooooorever. So, here's a quick-pic of the Real Ghostbusters in the meantime, they basically repaints with very little modding. I've had them done for about a month, and wanted to wait to show them until I had the ghosts completed, but .......I'm not? Also, any ghosts anyone remembers as iconic from the show? I've got Samhain done, Egon's worst fear, most of a child-tempter, and parts of some bizarro-villains, and I was just wondering if I was not thinking of anyone obvious/"necessary".

Is it wrong if I want two of these sets, just so I can put the extra Vigo monster head on Ray?

It's is Dana's overcoat. So we're getting her overcoat from the concept/control art, but not the ghost sniffer? Weak! Also, what's happening with the casual GB's, i.e. sweater vest Egon?

Yeah, I'll get around to getting the images updated in a week or so, it's been kind of fun looking at custom images from years ago. Yeah, life has been good. I moved around the coast a little bit, got engaged, just had a beautiful baby girl two months ago, so pretty good. When I was putting some Disney dvds on a bookshelf she won't be using for years, I found the Thundercats minis wrapped up in the box, so I decided to dust 'em off and finish the two villains. Also, as a sidenote, I can't get enough minimates from the 80s, and I'm bummed the BHC ones never panned out. Ghostbusters is one of my top (if not favorite) franchises of all time. I've gotten all the GB ones so far, and I'm hoping they'll keep pumping them out. I'll buy anyone they make - Reginal Vel Johson cop from 5 second cameo in the first movie? Yes please! Here's a slightly modified proton pack, obviously I'm working on a REAL big project right now......

I'm glad I put coming "soon" in quotations like that in my last update...... Mumm-ra and Slithe: And then a blurry phone pic of some Pumpkin headed guy holding some device:

So, I'm just going to go ahead and post this old contest design from the old miniMate boards....

Awesome work! Any plans for a Blix or even a Jack to fight him?

Mmm, sounds delicious! Wicked work as always Slythe - love the Venture Bros. stuff and your Thundercats. It's cool to see other characters other than Lion-O, even though he's pretty much the only one I know. So is Venture Bros. on DVD and is it worth picking up? I think the Venture DVDs (season 1 and 2 are out, season 3 hasn't aired yet) are worth owning. The show gets better everytime I watch it; it's funny, cool and all-around entertaining. A lot of references to Jonny Quest and the Marvel Universe. Now, here's Lion-O and Tygra, sans weapon but with crappy flash effect: Mutants coming ...."soon".

Yeah, I tried that at first, with Shadow Cat's limbs....I didn't like it so much. I thought about adding some veins for the "killer hand" thing, but that wasn't really doing it either, so I just removed them.....I'm going to try to make some kind of stand, that way he "floats" in the air. You can never have enough precision in your soup.

Here's a work in progress pic of my next custom set, these two still need their Thundercats logos: Panthro and Cheetara! More 'cats and some mutants to follow.

I decided to make another Man-Spider after getting some riot Spidey's, I liked the darker look of the figure. And then here's some more Venture Bros. miniMates (surprise)- The Alchemist, Jefferson Twilight and Phantom Limb.

Dr. Killinger and Venturestein PROSI-TUTE!!!!

Glad you like them Tenime! I will be selling the whole set on eBay when I finish everyone that I planned on making....I'll have pics of Venturestein and Dr. Killinger tonight, and maybe Jefferson Twilight and the Alchemist tomorrow.... Does anybody want to see a "Sovereign" miniMate? I made a list of characters that I wanted to make, and it just kept growing....and it's almost a perfect franchise for two packs. Crazy!

My entry is Baron Underbheit from Venture Bros. - pics are kinda blurry, but..... He's based on season 1, he has the black cape and the chains along the front (I think it looks cooler). Best artwork shots I could find.....

Four more Venture Bros. characters, more to follow: King Gorilla, Black Guard, Baron Underbheit and Molotov Cocktease And Powerkat, because I forgot to take a pic earlier-
