  1. Ok, let's go for 10 more days to see if perhaps we'll get a few more pics (that and I got chaos at work this coming week so I may not be online much). I'll throw out one more bonus challenge and put together a special prize just for that one challenge :thumbsup:

    Does that sound good to everyone?

    A bonus challenge with a special prize? Yes, let's do that.

  2. I posted about Bob just before Bob posted about Bob. Weird.

    Anyways, if the extension doesn't happen, obviously I'm alright with it, but I'll be a little sad to not see more finished entries. But such is life, I guess.

    So I guess if a majority of the people who aren't done are fine with not being done or know they won't get more done in overtime, then so be it, I guess.

    Anyways, I will watch all day and hopefully see many new shots popping up. In the meantime, I'm gonna go play Batman.

    Edit: I should probably note that by "Go play Batman" I meant play Batman: Arkham City the video game, not that I was going to put on a cape and pointy ears and run around saying "I'm Batman" in my best gravely voice. I see how that sentence could have been misinterpreted.

  3. In the same boat as the darkred guy, Minimates, I can not see your stuff. I would like to, but for whatever reason, whenever someone uses Facebook for images here, I can never view them.

    But I would suggest that Facebook might not be the best place for these anyways. Photobucket is certainly an easy and free alternative, but it's your thing and you do it how you want.

    That being said, I welcome both Minimates and Miniman2011 into the fray. I look forward to a clean fight.

    Also, in checking the poll results, Lurch, blacksun says he needs more time. Give him that time. I really like his stuff and I want to see him finish. (I sound a little fangirly here, huh?) But yes, it seems a few more weeks might be in order. I will of course, have issues waiting as I am impatient to see everyone's everything (That's not right, is it?) but hell, we've been on this since August, yeah? A couple weeks more to see excellent works is fine by me.

    I'm probably still going to put up the rest of my stuff tomorrow anyway, because hey, why not? It's not exactly as if the hidden challenges are that tough to come across anymore, which I'm actually all in favor of. When we started and there were hidden challenges, I was a tad distraught, as I thought for sure I wouldn't find them all. And maybe other people were too, but that issue is moot really, so hell with it. Let's kick this pig!

    Also, kudos to darkredshadow for finishing with some great stuff. And to anyone else who's finished and holding back, good for you too.

    I have gone on too long again. Crud.

  4. Thanks to all for answering this burning question for me!

    Sadly, they don't match as much as I'd like so I'll hold off on buying an Azazel to make a classic looking "devil" figure out of for now. I've gotta look around for other solid red torso/arm/leg combo's that'll match.

    Really and truly, thanks again everybody! :)

    Have you looked into either of the Red Hulks?

    If you have sorry. I Admit to not reading whole thread.

    Maybe never mind. I just looked at the database, and it looks like they'd be too dark. Plus, you know, top halves only.

  5. *How do those that have already posted their entries feel about extending a couple weeks?

    If people actually are going to do more entries, then I'm all for it, but if it gets extended a couple more weeks but nothing comes of it, then Why waste the time?

    That said, if you throw it a few weeks longer and add another challenge or two, then the time won't be wasted. But don't listen to me. Talk to people who still have stuff left to do.

    Edited Due to New Information

    And now that the new post is in the entries thread, I might put the rest of my challenges up earlier, since hiding them is just silly.

    Yeah. That's all.

  6. Those trophies are exceptional. Can't wait to see the winners displayed on them.

    I love this contest. It's how I initially heard about this place. And it is so much fun. I had a blast doing this

    And Bob, I am really sad to hear you might be dropping out. Your shots are awesome (as are everyone's) and I hope you find time to get some more done.

    I'm also hoping that there's a bunch of people holding back to throw in entries at the very last minute. I think that'll be awesome.

    Either way, this is great fun and I'm glad to have participated. Hooray and huzzah for us all.

  7. Either that or maybe Mark 1 Iron Man or maybe just Tony Stark.

    I know your avatar is C&H and all, but I swear, I didn't do this to gain favor with you. I love Calvin and Hobbes.

    I forgot all about that and I asked my friends what a fun challenge would be and "make a snowman" was suggested, and I went from there.

    But I'm glad you like it, it's one of my favorites from my little hunt gallery.

  8. I am glad there's someone around here who shares my enjoyment of good ole Helmut Zemo.

    Cheers to that, Miry.

    A Songbird/Citizen V two pack would stop me from ever asking for anything ever again. Or hell, a Baron Zemo/Citizen V for that matter. Really, I just want Citizen V.

    Edit: Songbird with long hair, please. The short hair is silly. If nothing else, two separate hairpieces. That's all.

    I haven't thought about it for a long time but this topic has just brought it out.

    I don't deny that Kang is an important dude and needs to be made, but the Thunderbolts have a special place in my evil little heart, so naturally I want that more.

    But hey, all power to any new mates being made at this point.

    And yeah, package anyone with Batroc the Leaper, and I'm in. I would love it if it was a classic Black Talon with his big chicken head and all. Marvel has some seriously awesome nonsensical bottom rung villains and any one of them would be badass.

  9. As far as the Zemos go, it's all Helmut. I have a soft spot for the Thunderbolts and Helmut made that awesome. Which is why I want a Citizen V, possibly moreso than an actual sock head Zemo. Not that a Helmut as Baron Zemo wouldn't be awesome, but I sat down and read Thunderbolts straight though, and before the more modernizing of the Thunderbolts into what it is now, when it was all silly 90's stuff, the Citizen V stuff was just plain awesome to me. Lies and betrayals and mind-****ing and everything, and it was all Helmut, so if we get a Zemo, I really want it not to be nĂºmero 12, but my lucky number 13.

    That said, Songbird first. Also, Abner Jenkins Big Green Beetle and little Norbert Fixer too, please while we're talkin' about junk here.

  10. Voted. And is it wrong in reading the list you can find Death Wong Armor? Also, whatever Death Wong Armor is, it should be some kind of accessory pack or something like with the M.A.X. Line.

    I know, I'm stupid. Move past it.

    And also, I'm a little disappointed Citizen V isn't on this list, as he would be an awesome Zemo variant or whatever.

    Oh well.

  11. FIXED!

    @ TENIME_art: I fired all the proof readers and editors. Want the job? The only downside is I can only pay you in fruit cake and expired eggnog. LMK.

    :lol:

    With my lactose intolerance, I'm not sure I could tell the difference between fresh & expired eggnog, lol...

    I don't know that anyone can.

    These things are awesome. Can't wait for the finisher.

  12. When I got started I wasn't so much a completist as An opportunist. I saw an opportunity to get mate, I took it. Then for a while I bought entire waves as they came because it was just good to have more. Now I'm just buying the things I want, along with a few of the newer lines (specifically Pirates and M.A.X.) because while none of them really scream at me right now, I can see where awesome things can come down the road and I want them to be able to continue on and get to that point. But with Marvel it really is cherry picking and taking the right moment to grab those that I do truly want. Which isn't to say I don't buy a few of the random ones here and there to add my support. That being said, I'm not against there being more Caps and Thors and what have you out there, it's just if you throw one of those guys in with someone we've never seen before, that's where the disdain comes from, I think. Now, I was happy to buy the Cap and Arnim Zola pack back before thanksgiving, and it wasn't actually for Zola. I actually wanted Cap for his Avengers Jacket, but that being said, if you take the jacket off and put on the standard Cap arms, I think that is the most perfect Captain America representation out there. It's simple and precise, which we need some times. So, at this point, I don't feel I need another standard Captain America ever. That said, it's fine with me that there are more out there. My thought really is just, if Caps and Thors and whatnot need to be on the shelves fairly often, maybe the best way to do it would be to always have them in the same packs, so those of us that Don't need them can get away with not feeling like we wasted money on a two pack when we only wanted half of it in the first place, let alone on two of them to get two new guys and two guys we don't see any need for (save the customizers). But then, that's most likely counter-intuitive from a business standpoint as splitting them forces more units to be sold and thus more money to be made. I understand that, I really do. It's just sometimes business is a shitty thing and we just have to surrender because there is no better option to keep the lines going. I dunno. I don't feel like thinking about this anymore. I'll just buy some stuff and not buy some other stuff and wait patiently for whatever's in the pipe.
