i've gotta say... I started an Adolf the second Rheul said we'd never see a Hitler mate! v.good work, kudos sir!

certainly a big smile on my face as well, gorgeous... absolutely gorgeous!

I... do not know

Ares! I certainly considered making his head a little more three dimensional, but it certainly works as a standard head. I looked at a lot of pictures, sometimes his grey face area sticks out, sometimes it's the blue area that's raised. I certainly feel the standard head is great... check out Glantern's as well!

this week i've got myself... X-Men: 1st Appearance Box Set Dark Avengers #2 Box Set Silver Age Angel/Multiple Man Egon/Library Ghost Peter/Vigo Tully/Slimer ... i'm also expecting my Infinity Gauntlet set early this week, horrah!

I do remember someone stating on here once, if you add a tiny bit of white to your yellow, it makes all the different texture-wise. anyway... firstly, I've given Alan Scott a new hairpiece from Admiral Kirk, to give him a much older/more contemporary comic look. Radioactive Man yeah... I know, no points for originality, but I did already have all the parts laying around spare, so thought it'd be silly not to. Bruce Wayne again, this has been done to death, which is why I never bothered putting a photo up a couple of years ago! Anyway, here he is, quick custom involving Patch and Modern Batman. Clark Kent Along with my Hal, this is the reason Bruce went up! GB1 Egon head, SM3 Peter Parker hair (painted black). The jacket is also from Patch... lucky they're so easy to find. Boodikka Had her laying around half finished for ages. Scarlet Witch hair/helmet piece, I believe the head is a modified Valkyrie. I used one of Gambit's energy pieces to represent her missing hand. Darkseid As 'cute' as the C3 fella is... he was never going to go the distance against Superman. This is a standard 2.5" body, with modified Ares armour, and Kilowog's powerhouse chest piece. The muscle definition is black, and thus difficult to make out... so I added a little light grey/blue to bring it out. thanks for looking, hope you enjoy!

that carnage is awesome... put a massive grin on my face, so evil! can only just appreciate how badass that T-600 is as well... love it, watched Salvation this weekend (thoroughly enjoyed!) oh, and while i'm here... cheers again for the Joker goon idea! EDIT: thats what i meant to ask... did you alter the Hydra fella's limbs at all, or did they just match up that well?

thanks for the kind words :biggrin: cheers pun... it really was a good idea my paints are just Citadel Colour from Games Workshop... the yellow is still v.thin/hard to apply, I just tried to be v.patient!

thanks again chaps. I certainly see what you mean about Brian Cox, although the only modifications I did to the head was browning up the hair/eyebrows. here are a few more... Kid Flash/Impulse this was a lot of fun to make, aside from all that yellow paint. What we have is mainly a re-paint of the standard Flash's upper body, with a more heavily modified Gambit mask. The headband was cut off, and the wings from the Flash were stuck on. The rest of the mask is simply painted onto a spare Angel head. I couldn't think of an easier way of doing the open-top helmet look. Red Arrow/Arsenal mainly re-painted Green Arrow parts, with the large chest piece removed. The head belonged to a SHIELD agent, and the hair to Transformation Venom's Eddie. a 'family' photo... Modern Robin (Tim Drake) ok, so its the most modern Robin that doesn't suck balls (here's looking at you Damian). Wave 2 Robin, with a C3 Batman belt and repainted Superman cape. Tim also has a modified Dick/Nightwing face... with smirk and smaller mask. Ganthet Again, great fun indeed! Doc Brown head, with Yeoman Rand's skirt piece. I cut the arms and legs down, with the feet glued onto the stumps to regain some articulation (I believe he's reduced to about 7/8 points!). height comparison... Joker's Crew The Joker sports a fancy new hair style, as well as this year's must have minimate accessory... henchmen! I've wanted to do something like this since I saw thepunisher=D's own Arkham Asylum based goons. I looked at a load of screen shots, and have a couple more of these guys on the way. thanks for looking!

for those with these... i'd also like to see the glider with no one on it... perhaps a little look at the detail/peg placement, etc. cheers

think i'll have to get another Menace set now, coming with a stand n' all. btw, i'm certainly army building these sentinels, they're fantastic. I know people will be after the pheonix stands from rachel, but i've little interest in them. To save people from spending cash on the 2-pack, i'm happy to send out my spares, without charge. i've got a minimum of 2 spares on order from Luke, none in hand just yet, let me know.

Nice review MST3KFan i'm still v.much looking forward to getting some pictures, but am now extra excited about those sentinels... i've 3 on order from Luke atm, but certainly want more... more than any other army builder yet!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=350299742974 i won that... horrah!

i know theres one in the Spider-Man Street Series set... I just bought it on the ol' ebay :biggrin: btw... mega bloks owners... is there any obvious way of modifying the glider to fit onto the minimate flight stands?

another little update... yet again, I wanted to improve my Black Canary, so I added an actual jacket piece, which had been cut down. The torso is also changed, to a more accurately cut top. Hal Jordan Not seen one of these before... Repainted Wildcat hairpiece, uniform dress Kirk face (absolutely identical to how Hal has been drawn since Rebirth!). Jacket repainted from Luke Cage. I don't really do Marvel customs, with them still being produced n' all, however... these two were v.simple, and definately worth it. Comic Blob simple repaint of the movie version... with the boxing gloves made to look like big fat fists! Rhino I love this guy! After getting my hands on a v.cheap Rhino, Ultimate Hulk and Movie Juggernaught... it took v.little time at all. Entirely repainted a slightly darker grey, with the horns brought out in a lighter shade. The boots are also glued on, not have been completely pushed on, giving him even greater height. I made the eyes on his helmet red as well, v.cool! bit of height comparison... hope y'all enjoy!

being in the UK... the GBmates are always expensive/hard to find... that said, i've just got myself a Vigo/Peter set on ebay, which has put me in such a good mood. for the last couple of hours, i've been making a mental list of the GB mates i need (i've box sets 1&2 atm). these mates have completely ignited my interest in GB, its crazy... just asked the gf if we can watch the films in bed this evening... she agreed! (having never seen them before!)

thats one of the best posts i've ever read on here. Dick has been a great Batman. It was obvious Bruce would be back sooner rather than later; i'd been looking forward to the event, until i heard who was writing it. Morrison is awful... Damian Wayne? Prometheus? urgh

I wish. FP are perhaps the best we have here in the UK....& that is the best I can say for them. and you're being rather kind

s'why i asked really... my LCS still has loads of the BTTF box sets are reduced prices... but as i'm in the UK, and that LCS is a forbidden planet, i'm not sure they'd be that much of a good deal.

Take a wild guess which one is more popular, and likely to be more popular as time goes on. (answer: first appearance Angel) figured, just wasn't 100% which we were referring to as the variant

managed to upset my housemate, whilst looking for a part from a transformer, which had fallen off the shelf.

sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, i wasn't quite sure where to put it i've seen the box sets mentioned a couple of times on here recently, have they become hard to come by? there doesn't seem to be any on ebay. i think it was mentioned in the marvel wave 31-32 thread that they've been reaching ridiculous prices. whats the story gang?

that Magma is great, good work... I have fond X:Men Legends related memories

Boy, I hear you. Oddly my biggest worry about the whole Angel-gate fiasco is how this'll affect me getting more Multiple Men. And while the Yellowjacket that came with the Kree soldier is all well and awesome, I'm finding it harder to justify getting another one or the Goliath variant. oh yes... like i said, i've not even got my regular set of 2-packs, yet i've got my hands on 4 multiple men, 3 of which came with variant angels. I'm excited about getting hold of Goliath, but have no interest in the Kree soldiers, which i'll have two of. slight off topic (sorry!) - is there any section on here where folks are trading unwanted army builders? sorry, which Angel are we talking here?

so... awesome *bows*
