  1. Thanks for the welcome, everyone!

    It isn't that long ago when I said this. ;)

    Well, welcome to the 'verse! As a long time lurker you probably already know that this is a great place to be! Two things I'd like to know are where are your from and where do you get your minimate-kicks in Deutschland?

    So I really am the second german member on here?

    I live in Wesel, NRW, where are you from?

    I started getting them from a comic shop in Moers, they ordered whole cases for me as I was the only customer interessted in Minimates. Since then I have gotten a few Previews Exclusive ones from Sammlerecke, which is a great comic shop that sends me my comics every month. But since DST started releasing store exclusives that will never make it to Previews or Europe at all, I started ordering with Luke, whos prices and shipping costs can not be beat.

    My interest in minimates weakened(sp?) somewhat around wave 15, and I only got back to collecting and catching up in the last 6 month, when I saw the flood of awesome stuff DST is releasing now.

    I hope I can score some nice cheap ones I am missing when I am on vacation in the states in September.

    On that note, anyone know of a good place to score some minimates in San Fran, LA, Vegas, NY, Miami???

  2. Der linke Arm ist tatsächlich ein Minimate Arm. Das sind verschiedene Teile zusammengestückelt. Das Rezept folgt, sobald ich dazu komme Cable in meinem custom thread vorzustellen.

    To not exclude you guys: ARuloff here is - wait for it - another 'verser from Germany who totally missed to introtuce himself! :D And we were just talking about how awesome Germany is. Nothing to see here, move along. ;)

    I think I figuerd out which parts make up the arm, but I will not tell so I will not spoil your fun.

  3. Hi Guys,

    after seeing all off your great customs, and especially the great Custom Con entries, I decided to start my first Custom as well.

    So, I started on the decal for the face and this is what I came up with:

    To see how well I got the likeness, I will let you guys guess who it is. Here are two clues that might help:

    1. She will get a blonde hair piece

    2. She is a character from a current tv show

    Have fun guessing!

  4. Did I miss another German entering the 'verse? Du bist mir noch nie aufgefallen? Danke für das Kompliment. Und immer wieder Hawkeye, der wirklich ein last minute custom war. Und weshalb habe ich denn mit dem linken Arm gemogelt?

    Ja, noch ein Deutscher hier, ist aber kein Wunder das ich noch nicht aufgefallen bin, bin zwar schon seit längerem Mitglied, hab aber jetzt erst angefangen zu posten.

    Naja, der linke Arm sieht nicht so aus, als wäre es ein "echter" Minimate Arm, daher "gemogelt".

  5. Bob, Deine Furyous Basterds sehen wirklich genial aus, besonders Hawkeye. Cable gefällt mir auch gut, auch wenn Du mit dem linken Arm gemogelt hast. (I assumed you would understand that, seeing that your location is Germany)

    Luke, your entry is awesome as well. I have noticed that the print on Steppenwolf and Atomic Skull wraps around the chest block, how do you do that, is it one decal, multiple decals or did you paint the sides by hand?

  6. Hi guys,

    long time lurker, first time poster here.

    After drooling over all of you great customs, I decided to start working on my own custom. Because my painting skills are non-existent, I read through and looked at every decal creating threat or website I could find and started on my first decal.

    To see if I got the likeness right I will let you guys guess who it is.

    Here are two clues:

    - She will get a blonde hair piece

    - She is from a current tv show

    Any comments are welcome.

    Have fun guessing!
