Ha, I was hoping not to have to reveal it. My ASCII-esque aspirations were thwarted by forced line breaks, so I was going to pivot to the following chimeric emoji abomination: 😜 🦾 ⏹️🦾 🦿🦿

Boom goes the dynamite! 💥 "Company Men" is the code for the wave. So I guess I better get off my ass and take photos tonight...

Ha! I'm no BHM with the puns, sadly. And N was a good guess! __ __ m __ a n __ M e n Hangmate: _/\_

Ah, getting closer... __ __ m __ a __ __ M e __ Hangmate: _/\_

No R! Two legs! __ __ __ __ a __ __ __ e __ Hangmate: _/\_

Ha. Those would certainly close a certain set out quite nicely. Does that mean that your next 3D project may be a ship that is designed to drop other ships in hostile locations?

Freaqualizer buys a vowel! __ __ __ __ a __ __ __ __ __ Hangmate: _/

Nope! I guess that means one leg? _/

Pics soon of what I might call a "potboiler" wave for its ludicrous simplicity. With the exception of some minor acrylic color. After that, I need to get much better at painting. I'm looking into all sorts of stuff I swore I'd never do, like model paints, wet palettes, brush techniques... it's a sickness. Ah well. (this next-next wave is also "QC" in that it's decal-free, but it requires much more paint than I'm accustomed to) But for the potboiler, maybe it'll light a fire under me to get those pics done and edited if we play a game? I dunno. All my custom groupings have a code name. The Howlers were "Wah-Hoo." Let's play hangman: __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __

This is some really impressive work.

I will re-post that it looks like the Heroes set sold out on Hasbro Pulse, which I hope is a good sign. The villains haven't sold out yet, but I'm curious about why packaged images weren't included? I personally love the throwback TSR-style packaging.

Yeah! I finally got one! But don't worry, I won't be a prick about it.

On the subject of frogs, Leap-Frog did appear in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (edit: and technically also Saracen, El Aguila, Porcupine, Man-Bull, Mr. Immortal and the Wrecking Crew) Leap-Frog, Man-Bull and Porcupine would all require some non-standard parts.

I hear Thor was mostly Norwegian, but a tad Polish. But you shouldn't believe anything I say -- I am fibbing us.

You'll croak?

Khonshu fits the bill. Also: Scarlet Scarab was a dude in the comics.

Hmm maybe we need a hint -- in what specific year did the character appear in a MCU project? That could help narrow it down. Guessed so far: Shang-Chi, Attuma, Sersi, Clea, Hellcat, Shuma Gorath, Pip the Troll, Arishem (Celestial), Uatu, High Evolutionary, Starfox, Gilgamesh, Starhawk, Eternity, Zeus, Cosmo, Martinex Guessed without confirmation: Swordsman, Supreme Intelligence Oh wait wait wait... Fenris Wolf?

Supreme Intelligence?

Ahhh. That is some clever sleuthing.

@Kotter Comics I'm hung up on the "unconventional materials" clue. @NerdyTrev mentioned Eternity, but Luke suggested he'd avoid previous cut-outs. I guess Starhawk would also fit that bill, what with his flowy flappy parts. Can't be Cosmo because she's a she? Martinex? I'm stumped

Luke did show how he might tackle Shuma in one of his recent oversized PVCs. Lots of Brood parts.

I'd love Shang-Chi, but my sig reveals my extraordinary bias. Attuma would be super cool too.

Thanks Luke! I figured it would be a good way, if viable, to grab all four required green parts at once. I'm going to fudge my second King as an additional army builder. These are too much fun -- thanks again for making them. I know there's a ton of talk about Trek and DC sets, and I can appreciate how much work these must require, but I'm really looking forward to the next Marvel set whenever it might come. They really are a great way to knock out a bunch of characters. If you're ever starved for themes or inspiration (seems unlikely!), I have many many ideas for Marvel character decals that would be very fun, with proposed recipes and the whole nine.

Cool!
