  1. Sweet stuff man, Iron Man looks great!
  2. Well I also based it on a custom done by Jin Saotome: http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/J.../Vengeance.html Thought it was well done, and I really liked the concept design.
  3. Yeah, alot of the pics I found of him had him in Purple.....kinda like the original Ghost Rider Mate. I just wanted him to look different clothing wise to Rider.
  4. Just letting you know, here is what i'm getting: Fatal Gallery Plug-in error Plug-in options not validated
  5. It is a fine set-up TBT, I think it works nicely
  6. Same here, Hasbro's line of Legends have made me completely stop collecting them.
  7. Thanks TBT, i'm glad they came out the way they did, cause I was running out of Any type of pieces that looked remotely close! lol And I don't the little hijacking, it's helping other customizers with their stuff as well
  8. If the light is small enough and the wiring and battery parts easy enough to install, I don't think it would be a huge undertaking.
  9. I can imagine, cause you gave those customs some wicked detail!!
  10. Probably because they look like crap.........
  11. Honestly, I would take any prototype Minimate figure over the Hasbro Spiderman 3 figures......these are just awful. I was really hoping the Sandman figure would be good enough to justify getting, but sadly, once I saw it in person, it kinda made me feel sick. Kinda like the Hasbro ML series, except the prototypes were MUCH better. Man....Hasbro has been sucking it up with all of these
  12. The ribs were interesting....... and I'm trying to remember which went where, but I believe it went like this: Top Row - Legolas Hair Strands Middle Row - bottom of a Clear Frodo hair piece, cut in half and shaped Bottom Row - Kabuki Crescent Moon blade, cut in half Was actually harder to find those type of shapes in existing minimates pieces then to make the entire custom! LOL And i ALMOST sculpted the fangs on the face, but thought against it....to me, i think this turned out better.
  13. Hey, sometimes Simple is the best way to go! That one turned out perfect!!
  14. Well for those interested in the face, here is a close-up: drgnrbrn316: When I started the custom, I was using an entirly clear figure. Where I have the light installed, it did indeed go through the whole figure. But I really only wanted the light to come through the chest and top of the head, but except for the waist down, it is all clear. I have the light installed between where the peg in the legs is and the top of the torso in the back. In my opinion, this was a really bulky set up for a light, and I am sure that they sell much smaller ones that can be hidden better within the figure (I think TBT made a cyclopes with the light in the head, and looked fully hidden) http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.ph...c=16&st=84#
  15. I really wanted to get the light somewhat contained within the figure.....but the set-up that it started with was rather bulky and I did shrink it down a bit, yet still somewhat bulk. The Mate all in all turned out good, but I need to work on getting smaller LED's and practicing more with them
  16. Tons you say....... Maybe i'll give it a few months and get one once it goes on Clearance.
  17. Nice stuff man, definately like your GL Corp!
  18. Thanks guys! The light is actually my first attempt at installing an LED inside a mate. It was just a small contraption from inside a McDonalds Bionicle toy. Vengeance has a "powerpack" to make the light work, but I did make it removeable. I made a small hole in his back and glue the light right inside. I can take a few pics of his face later on and post them, just based it off of the original GhostRider mate and just added a few extra details to it.
  19. Certainly Batman at his Creepiest Very Nice!
  20. Might be in stores, not sure though....may just be a TRU online exclusive. And Emma, to me...looks a bit....uumm..........Man-ish.
