    It's great. You're Spidey has the arms that should have been on him in the first place! Good Job. :D

    I love the table Tony can lean back on...I don't even think the exterior of the lab looks all that boring.

    After this year's many Iron Man releases, I'm sure the hall will fill right up! ;)

    I guess I am just a sucker for the old school look! She is one of the strongest and most iconic characters Marvel has ever created and it kind of irks me when Marvel artists put a new twist on a character when it doesn't really call for it. But of course that is just my opinion and it would not take away the fact if TBT was to put it up for auction, I would defifnitely have my bid in for it. I believe a few of the Storm figures I do own have pupils, it's just that with pupils I think it takes away from her godlike uniqueness that I have grown to love.

    Fo Shizzle, if I design a Jim Lee era storm, I promise not to add the pupils. :lol:

    Nice design, fairly close to one I made way back in 2005... I'm sure a better one could be done as there are better parts to use these days.

    TBT, I've seen your custom before and liked it a lot. It looks great! I only wish DST would make one! Boyd's looked good too.

    Oh, and Mini-myte, I just simply don't have the time to do actual customs...my job keeps me away from home all the time, but the design was fairly quick and easy to do. I think I've gotten the bug! Maybe I'll just design some when I AM at home. :)

    As much as I love the design TBT the only thing I have not liked about Storm is when people give her pupils. From the very beginning I have never known her to have them and don't agree that they did that with her in the movie. But asides from that one tiny thing, actually two tiny things :lol: I think it's really awesome!!

    Oh, Fo Shizzle...I disagree. In the comic books they often show her with cat-like blue eyes. I think more of the toys need to show her blue eyes...almost all of the toys made of her are pupiless. :P

    "Black" minimates

    in Crisis of Infinite Minimates

    Since you bring it up, whenever I gain the ability to create and print out my own decals, Black Adam is one of the first that I am going to do. All I need to create is the lightning bolt and the forearm guard-things. Otherwise, use the head and hair of Namor from the Defenders set (he has pointy ears), a black Mate arms, torso, crotch, and legs, flesh hands, Captain Marvel's boots, Ronin's sash, voila. I'm surprised that I haven't seen someone else doing this yet. . .

    Trust me, with the death of DC Minimates, Black Adam has moved way up on my "to-do customs" list...

    Can't wait to see it, Boyd. Love your customs.

    What is the next possible box set??

    Once again, I'm showing my age :P

    However as long as I'm just wishing, I'd like an 80's X-Men box set w/ First appearance Rogue, Colossus in the red/white uniform, Punk Storm, and Shadowcat in the blue outfit.

    Or a Jim Lee era X-Men box set which could finally give us Gambit.

    Wave 22 - The Incredible Hulk moviemates

    Hmmm...Alot of you guys are a lot more hardcore about minimates than I am evidently. I mean, I have a shelf covered in them, but I honestly couldn't see buying something I didn't want just out of fear that the line will be cancelled. The sad truth is that EVERYTHING gets cancelled eventually...from Megos to Star Wars to G.I. Joe to Super Powers.

    But, I'm not trying to make everyone feel bad...on a positive note...thank goodness for the internet and e-bay. That insures that I can keep collecting these even in a worse case scenario. Back in the old days we'd have to go to garage sales and flea markets, which were almost always fruitless endeavors.

    That said...I don't think this Hulk line is all that horrible...I just don't need any Hulks or civvies for my own collection.

    But now that I think about it, someone could make a custom LOTR Arwyn out of the Liv Tyler one.

    We do seem to be going through an Iron Man overkill. That said, these are actually some of the best Iron Mans I've seen. I said I didn't want anymore...but I may actually get THIS set and pass on the movie ones.

    Redoing DCD Minimates

    in DC & C3 Minimates

    I think that's the Legion that most fans would want. IMHO, DCD really dropped the ball when they made figures of the SA Legion rather then this version. I think the reaction to Geoff Johns' recent use of these characters has shown that that's the Legion that clicks with most readers.

    All I know is, Wildfire's one of my 10 most wanted!

    I loved Wildfire! One of the best members in my opinion!

    Classic Avengers!

    Hulk doesn't bother me as I like wave 1 the best. So everything else is just "meh" to me. Ironman is cool. I'm still trying to figure out the Giantman/Antman thing. Are they the same person? Isn't that oxymoronish? The first Wasp pictured is fail, but the 2nd one is epic win.

    Yeah, Hank Pym went by Giantman when he grew large and Antman when he shrunk. He also went by Goliath and Yellowjacket (which was my favorite costume). I actually liked the original Wasp outfit, but I'm gonna have to agree with you, the second outfit looks much better in minimate form...and Hey! we get a new hair sculpt! :)
