  1. I'm not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but it looks like the wave 48 Invisible Woman has the same hair as Magma to make a standard New Mutants uniform version of Amara.
  2. Call me crazy but I've never been able to understand the anti-spoiler mentality. So what if I know that popular character dies or that the butler did it? It isn't one pivotal moment that makes a story worth reading or a movie worth watching it is the act of reading or watching the complete story take place, allowing me to get a better view of the whole story, that is what really matters. After all the ending of the first Walking Dead trade was a complete shock to me even though I knew what was coming.
  3. My money is on Johnny Storm & Transformation Johnny Storm being the variants packed with the Moiloids so hopefully Sue will have non invisible parts. Considering the inclusion of Puppet Master I'm betting Thing will come with Alicia Masters.
  4. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 7: New Hope I'm sure you're wondering why I'm being so candid about what I've done. The simple fact is I'm sick of all the insane mental baggage that I've had to put up with since Z Day. You'd think that the end of the world wound make people wake up and realize just how valuable life really is. But it just doesn't seem to be that way. That's why I'm letting you know right now everything about me, and the things I've done to survive, so there's no chance of surprises later. I can only hope that you will do the same. Anyway, picking up where I left off I'd just escaped from the Reapers and was on the run using the dead girl's directions, not that I needed them since the survivors of New Hope Church went out of their way to make sure everyone could find them. They're not the brightest bunch out there. Needless to say I tore down every sign that I could so that the Reapers wouldn't find me. When I arrived at their compound I was sure that I'd found a secure location. The Church was at least four stories tall surrounded by an eight-foot brick wall, wrought iron gates, and plenty of room in the courtyard for growing a sizable garden. I'm not sure what I was expecting from the group but it certainly wasn't an open armed welcome and an invitation to a glass of sun tea on the front deck. Where Bishop Smith was kind enough to introduce me to his little family. No really, he referred to everyone there as his family. There was his wife Sister Smith and their two adult children James and Maggy, Mark and his wife Mary Davis, and the church handyman Chuck. There were two other members of the group Elizabeth Wiggins and Hope Ellis who were out looking for other parishioners and I'd be able to meet them later. The Smith Family The Davis Family At that point I told him about how I'd met one of the two and she had been bitten. The entire group looked stricken at the news so I quickly told them about how I had stayed with her to help her so that she wouldn't return as an abomination but also wouldn't commit a sin by killing herself. From the relief on their faces I could tell that they were more upset about the possibility of her taking her own life than they were about her being dead. It was at that point I realized that as soon as I got my chance I'd be moving on once again. I felt I had a duty to let them know about the Reapers and how their actions at putting up signs to direct survivors back to their church, while a good idea was likely to cause them more harm than good. At that point Chuck was quick to agree with me and insisted on telling me all about the group of sinners and abominations he'd been forced to stay with before he found New Haven. I was just starting to think that your group might not be all that bad when Elizabeth returned. At that point we all went in for a light supper, seeing as even though Bishop Smith insisted that the group was well stocked rationing and frugality was the way of things. Sister Wiggins As we sat down to eat Bishop Smith insisted on saying a few words before we said grace. He lamented the loss of Sister Ellis and then proceeded to divide up the women folk. Meaning he gave his daughter to Brother Davis as a second wife, Sister Wiggins to Chuck for a wife and he would keep me as his own second wife. In that way they would be able to best spread the gene pool as they repopulated the Earth with "True Believers". You know, it's hard to believe they hadn't chained the gate before making such a declaration. As far as I know the only one smart enough to give chase was Chuck and let me tell you he was tenacious even after he was bitten. Thankfully one of your people was kind enough to deal with him. That's just about everything there is to know about me, and everything I know about the Reapers and New Hope fanatics. So how about you tell me a bit about your group so I can make up my mind on whether it would be worth my time to give you a chance or if I should just keep on moving? And with these entries my Z Day Survivors customs are done. I'd say that I was finished with Z Day entirely but there is always the possibility that for a zombie custom or two once there are enough Walking Dead troops available. My next project is a group of time displaced gangsters from the A51/Soldiers of Horror/Gatherers/Neo Olympians Universe that and I'm calling Crime Time.
  5. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 5: Death Death, on the other hand, does stand out for all the wrong reasons. He is the youngest member of the Reapers and also the most dangerous. He never speaks, at most he'll grunt or maybe growl, and he is covered in scars. At first I felt sorry for him since it was obvious that the rest of the Reapers had broken him. However after being confined on a bus with him I quickly discovered that everyone, including Reaper himself, fears the kid. Most of the scars on his body are self-inflicted due to his extreme blood fetish. He isn't comfortable unless he has fresh blood covering some part of his body. The things I've witnessed him do will haunt me until the day that I die. If I ever see him again I'll do everything I can to kill him. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 6: Escape I'm sure you're wondering how I escaped from the nightmare. Believe it or not it wasn't that difficult. I'm not saying it wasn't dangerous just not all that hard. The convoy had stopped at a mall a couple of towns over. It was just across the canyon from the Interstate and they were looking for a bit of entertainment. While they were busy shooting up the place I decided to escape. When I say that what I mean was that I planned to jump off the bridge and escape this whole nightmare. It isn't like they were bothering with guards anymore since I knew they'd send Death after me if I weren't there when they finished with their "fishing". It was only luck that I stumbled across a girl that seemed to have the same idea I had. The difference being that she had recently been bitten and she was trying to set it up so that she would fall over the edge when she turned since suicide is a sin. I agreed to help her if she would help me. We quickly worked out the deal and I returned to the convoy for my medical supplies, which may end up a mistake, and to change clothes. When I got back to her hiding spot she changed into my clothes so that it would look like I had gone ahead with my plan. She then gave me directions to the group of survivors she had been with when she was bitten and a letter explaining how I had helped make sure she wouldn't be committing a sin but at the same time wouldn't be returning as an abomination. Judge me how you want for what happened next but I'm not completely heartless. I administered a heavy dose of morphine to ease the girl's pain. We never exchanged names so it made the next part a little easier. I waited a couple of minutes until I could see the drug taking effect and then I pulled out a knife I'd picked up when I was changing and made sure she wouldn't be coming back before pushing her over the side. I couldn't risk waiting since I've seen that a transformation can take mere moments to hours to run its course and I couldn't be sure when the Reapers would send someone to check on me. Still, I gave the body plenty of time to fall as I quickly wrote my own short suicide note and placed a rock on it to hold it down. I looked over the edge, I wish I didn't because that is another memory that I now have to live with, to be sure that the body looked like me before I took off to find the friends of the person I'd just murdered.
  6. They're from the Lego Kingdoms Blacksmith Attack 6918 set. There is only one in each set but it does have a nice selection of weapons. Though with Lego I'm sure they can be obtained from other newer sets as well. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 4: War, Pestilence, and Famine Reaper also has four lieutenants War, Pestilence, Famine, and Death. There isn't much to say about the first three. War has black hair, a permanent smirk due to a nasty scar, and really likes killing things with explosives. Pestilence has scraggly blond hair and beard that is infested with lice. At first I thought he had a soft spot for animals since he seemed to be keeping several kittens in a box when I first arrived. I quickly learned differently as he slowly mangled, mutilated, and ate them alive. I can't say anything about Famine due to the fact that while I was with the group three different men filled the position.
  7. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 3: Charon Reaper's second in command calls herself Charon and is the only female in the group to have any sort of rank; a position that she is well suited for. If anything she is even more dangerous than Reaper. Where he's crazy and unpredictable Charon is calculating and cruel. Her most dangerous weapon is Reaper's command vehicle, a stretched Hummer that has been modified to run on propane. But I've gotten of track again, Charon doesn't carry any guns, instead she uses a pair of self-built sickles that have a sharp point but have no other discernable blade. On one occasion I had the misfortune of seeing her disembowel a man with one. Her preferred targets are males and it doesn't matter if they are zombies, survivors, animals, or even other Road Reapers. One last distinguishing fact about her is that even though the world has ended she seems to be able to keep her hair dyed pink. Of course she might just be wearing a wig. I never got, or wanted to get, close enough to find out.
  8. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 2: Reaper Since you may have to deal with them at some point I'm going to tell you a bit about each of the Road Reapers primary members. The first thing you should know is that they no longer bother with names. The group leader calls himself Master Reaper or just Reaper. He leads the group with an iron fist and often kills slaves or even underlings if he hasn't had a chance to kill any other living thing for a few days. He rarely ever kills zombies instead he leaves that for his lieutenants. The only time he does kill them is if they were young children or when the group stops for a "Fish in a Barrel" run. That is when they find a large shopping center full of zombies and they all open up and make a day of shooting everything that moves. Once everything is dead they then spend the rest of the day "shopping". I really don't know exactly what they do since I always stayed with the convoy.
  9. Survivor: Zombie Apocalypse (June, 21 Z.D.) Excerpt from the journal of Isaac Irons: Only two new things to report today; Chuck came back as a zombie and we've met another survivor, Dr. Lisa Jones. Chuck was easily dealt with, of course. I think that it is important to note that Josh knocked him down with his spud gun and Riana finished him off with her axe. That leaves all of us that actually knew Chuck guilt free. As for Dr. Jones, she's staying in one of the safe houses. This is at her request I should point out. I guess she hasn't had much luck with the other survivors that she's encountered so far. She says that she'll tell us her story once she's had a bit of time to rest and get to know us a bit better. Excerpts from the journal of Isaac Irons, Dr. Jones report, 1: Origin I suppose the best place to start would be with a bit about myself. I'd just started my general practice in a small town about a hundred miles East of Denver when Z-Day hit. There isn't much I can tell you about the Z infection considering it isn't my field of expertise, however from everything I've heard and seen the infection seems to have activated at the same time worldwide rather than being spread from a localized source. This suggests something more akin to a computer virus than a human epidemic. I hate to contemplate the reality but it seems that the end of the world was created in a lab. My best guess is that it was connected to a nano-particle activator and then dispersed around the globe. This also suggests that somewhere the creator of the Z infection has either an inoculation against or a cure for the virus, not that it matters to the billions that have already died. I also have no explanation why some people seem to be immune to the virus until they are bitten or they die. There were eighteen survivors in my group, however by new years we were down to ten. Around the beginning of March, we'd lost track of time by that point, there were only seven of us when the Reapers hit. The Road Reapers are a group of survivors… No they're not survivors more like psychotic killers. The group displays more mental dysfunction "isms" than actually exist. Basically they travel the major roads picking up supplies, slaves, recruits, and having what they refer to as "a good time" which usually consists of rape, mutilation, and murder. I'm not going to elaborate beyond that but trust me the things they consider fun would make many a depraved murderer sick. I only survived, relatively unscathed, because they learned that I was a doctor.
  10. Mumm-Ra Box Set Mumm-Ra The Everliving with Ma-Mutt PVC Pumm-Ra (Thundercat transformation) King Arthur with Excalibur Egyptian Regalia Mummy form Diamondfly miniature PVC
  11. Aaaaaaarrrgh! Now I can't help imagining the cool factor of a feline themed steam locomotive.
  12. I want both old and new versions considering the looks are so different. Also while that statue is nice I want a Classic Thunder Tank along the lines of the MAX APC with the back opening up with a fold up cannon and seating along the sides for the rest of the team. I also pulled this down off the shelf, please ignore the layer of dust, and snapped a few pics with a couple of my customs. Oh, and I'm sorry for the quality of the photos but like I said I just snapped them real quick. I'm sure with a little bit of work it would be possible to modify the cockpit to hold two seated minimates. Edit: I should have pointed out that the pilot is standing up in the first two pics and sitting in the rest.
  13. I voted for Protector because he looked to have the largest range of usable parts but after seeing the control art I want all of them. I only hope the leftovers make it into a TRU release along with Magik and Namor. Maybe have P5 Magik packaged with Modern Black Widow, P5 Namor with Phoenix Iron Fist or Dr. Strange.
  14. Or, if that's too shameful, remember a Frankenstein *is* made up of different "parts" Now there's an image I did not need. Where was the spoiler tag on that? Oops that was too much I guess. Fine, he doesn't have wolfman nards, he just has ovaries. Did I mention again that the mailman was a werewolf? No problem, I just couldn't imagine the Vet's face when Dr. Frankenstein insisted that he neuter the Wolfman.
  15. I had to do a bit of work on it. There is a bit of fur that sticks down in the front that had to be completely cut off and the inside of the fur on the back had to be sanded down and angled just a bit so that the peg hole would line up better. I also clipped a bit out of the neck hole, though it isn't required, just to be sure that Wolvesbane's neck ball wouldn't get damaged.
  16. Or, if that's too shameful, remember a Frankenstein *is* made up of different "parts" Now there's an image I did not need. Where was the spoiler tag on that?
  17. At last I found a Werewolf set for my much needed Wolvesbane upgrade.
  18. Riot Suit Glenn is essential. He wore that thing a lot. Even if they didn't make others in the suits, I'd buy two and stick a Rick head on it. I mourned the RV's death as much as the other characters who went down at the prison. Riot Suit Glenn, Rick, or Tyreese & Riot Suit Andrea or Michonne Pack would quickly become the next Shield Agents sell out pack just to quick custom all the characters.
  19. I don't do the army builder thing. That said if Warwolves end up in the wave, as unlikely as that may be, I'll have to have all six of them. Warwolves and Nova Corps Centurions are my votes. On another note what is up with the vote now on poll #4 and then come back next week for poll #5?
  20. Wow, so Kick-Ass changed his ethnicity and joined the Green Lantern Corps, who could have guessed?
  21. Use the cat from GB world of the Psychic Peter encased in an actual super ball and have a variant pack with a Speedball encased in a super ball with regular Niels.
  22. Maria is from Femme Fatales Tarot and Joshua is from MvC3 Nathan Spencer.
  23. Those qualifications are most, you missed his saber for a swashbuckling Nightcrawler, of the reasons that I consider him a good source of custom parts. Of course, you have to take into consideration that nearly all of my customs are original characters so what I consider good custom parts is very different to someone that focuses on existing characters. However at the end of the day I'll be happy with whoever ends up in the wave since it will still give me parts and options that I hadn't considered combining until I have them in my parts boxes.
  24. I figure that they're going to have to do something like that eventually in order to re-retcon all the retcon crap that's taken place over the last decade or so out of existence. Sure there have been some great stories and new characters but by erasing everything it gives them the ability to sell the stories all over again in completely new ways. Perhaps most importantly maybe somebody can pick up a clue-by-four and give everyone a good beating that continuity is more important than any one story and it shouldn't be changed on an issue by issue basis.
  25. Name: Tegra (true name unknown) Beast Classification: Tiger (genetically altered) Planet of Origin: Tegra (destroyed) Primary Specialty: Bounty Hunter Tegra is perhaps the only survivor of the planet Tegra. The separatist colony was founded by a group of beasts that had grown tired of the endless fighting and chose to follow a strict path of pacifism. Their natural tendencies for violence were channeled into rigorous physical martial arts practices that were balanced with meditation and contemplation. For centuries the colony survived due to the simple fact that Tegra was hidden in a binary sun system. Unfortunately due to the careless actions of a single individual, Tegra, and his fascination with the ancient spacecraft that had carried the colony to Tegra they were discovered and destroyed. However it was also this knowledge that allowed the severely burned teen to escape. After finding a Battle Beast space outpost Hunter was treated and quickly sent back out to continue fighting. That scarred tiger was never seen again. However from the ashes a new fighter appeared. After the cursory healing he had received from the Battle Beast medics Tegra went in search of real medical professionals in order to transform himself at the genetic level. Once his transformation was complete he started working as a bounty hunter and quickly made a name for himself. The reason for his quick rise to infamy was two fold. The first reason was because, unlike other hunters, he preferred to take bounties that required live capture and second, if he judged that his employer had lied about the crimes or motives of the target, he would return the money he had been paid to his employer's corpse. His current bounty has brought him to the planet Earth. Whether he is hunting a Battle Beast, a human, or for an artifact; no being should sleep comfortably until his mission has been completed. Name: Korren Beast Classification: Unicorn Planet of Origin: Verdant Primary Specialty: Deflowering Human Virgins Secondary Specialty: Tactical Analysis Korren may be one of the few Battle Beasts that are fighting on the side of Earth. It's not that he really cares for humans more than any other Beast it's just that Earth has been the exclusive "playground" of the Unicorns for centuries. Oh sure there would be an occasional "werewolf" here and there but they were never coveted like the unicorns. Even in what the humans consider the modern age there is still a fascination with them and Korren has taken advantage of that on many occasions. Still with the coming of the other Beast Clans it is making it extremely difficult to have his playtime go uninterrupted by some misguided boyfriend, parent, or soldier looking to protect an "innocent" girl from the "Evil Alien Threat". As far as Korren is concerned the sooner the rest of the Battle Beasts get back to other battles on other planets the better. Then the humans will delude themselves, one of their strongest innate abilities, into believing the invasion was just another media stunt and Korren can get back to business as usual.
