  1. More Wave 60 Blue and Gold Customs. Most of these actually share their limbs until I can find more sets to complete them I though I'd go ahead and post the customs in progress. First up are Amanda Sefton (Daytripper) Moira McTaggart, Sunder, Sharon Friedlander, Tom Corsi, and Alysande Stewart to complete my Muir Island team. Then the "just because" grouping of Nightcrawler, Bishop, Frenzy, Omerta, Rachel Summers, and Spyke.

    Secret Wars 3 customs the Battle World Heretics. A team of super powered individuals doing the best they can to survive the horrors of the Deadlands.

    Ultron Omega is the final evolution of the Ultron series. After fighting against the zombie hordes he has "grown up" and realized humanity, despite it's many flaws, is unique and needs protection rather than eradicated.

    The Patriot, Old Man Rogers, hails from Technopolis and he was sent beyond the wall by Baron Stark himself for heresy and fomenting rebellion against his rule among the lower classes.

    Hailing from the Small town of Timely (1872) Pepper "Powder Keg" Potts was exiled beyond the wall for illegally crossing into other domains and "procuring" futuristic technology in an attempt to overthrow Mayor Fisk.

    Peter Parker, The Spider-Kid, survived in Arachnia until he was recruited by the Victor Von Doom Institute for Gifted Youths. He never made it to the campus, choosing instead to take his chances by jumping from the transport as it passed over the Deadlands.

    James Hudson, The Wolverine, is from the Realm of Ultimate Manhattan. He was sent to the wall for Heresy against God Doom when it was found that he was trying to organize mutants from several Realms to fight against anti-mutant Barons.

    Erik Masterson, The Accuser, is a fallen Thor. As Dooms police force the Thors often see things that contradict the teachings of Doom. Masterson was working a case on Knowhere when he discovered a cache of alien technology and texts that proved the universe had once been more than just the realms of Battle World. When he reported his findings to the Lawspeaker he was stripped of his hammer and was banished beyond the Wall.

  2. As irritating as I find Secret Wars to be there needs to be several more waves based on the event. So I'm going with:

    God Doom & The Maker

    Magistrate Rhodes (Armor Wars Thor) & Groothor with mini Throg

    Star Lord (Infinity Gauntlet Version) & AOA Kitty Pryde

    Squadron Sinister Hyperion & Nighthawk

    What's not to love there? A FF but not Fantastic Four based pack, Thors, and Iron Man/War Machine, Guardians of the Galaxy, Age of Apocalypse, and Nighthawk. I'd substitute Hyperion for Hawk-Iron Man-Thor with extra blasted chest but that might make the wave Thor/Iron Man heavy.

  3. He'll be a little more blue, not sure how that will affect you. Although are you making a partially iced version of Bobby?

    Yeah, though it'll just be a bit of parts swapping between Bobby and Iceman from wave 59. I'm still working on just how far along the transformation will be. Currently it's full lower body, forearms, and hands but I'm considering trying an asymmetrical look with one leg only transformed up to the knee.

  4. Sigh, so Electro will be glow in the dark. I'm not sure how to feel about that considering I was going to buy an extra to use the base to create a transformation version of the All New Bobby Drake. Still it might make for an interesting effect. Still, these are all must haves.

  5. I don't know, Stegron might be a possibility as a Secret Wars: Spider Island tie in.

    Spider-Man/Stegron

    Venom/Cap-Wolf

    Iron Goblin/Bulked up Savage Lizard

    Still if it's a Savage Land collection I'd be all for a wave of

    Ka-Zar/Zabu

    Magneto/Zaladane

    Rogue/Stegron (Rogue has to have as much if not more selling power than Shanna and Not-Sauron)

    Savage Wolverine/ Velociraptor or maybe Man-Thing

  6. So it would seem that the Guardians are getting stuck with Thing. I suppose this means that Venom will be going back to being evil. I hope there is still a chance to get X-23's All New X-Men uniform figure instead of the Wolverine re-hash suit. It is interesting to see Red Wolf in that line-up and if we do eventually get a figure of him hopefully he'll come with parts to create his classic look as well. I wonder if Citizen V will be Citizen V or a reformed Zemo from an alternate universe? Finally Iron Man. Really? With all the designs from 2099 to Armor Wars that is the armor going forward? I know that they're trying to migrate MCU designs into the comics but this "Newborn Vision with faceplate" armor has to be a joke.

    Overall I don't really see much there to get excited about, in terms of comics, I'm always happy to get new minimates so I guess the money I've been spending on the comics can go toward figures instead.

  7. Adding my wave 60 customs. I'll edit the descriptions when i get a chance.

    Zombie Brotherhood Pyro, Avalanche, Blob, and Destiny. I figure Destiny was the first changed and fed on Pyro and Avalanche before they all turned on Blob.

    17960154575_2f5ada8a42_h.jpg

    Joseph, Cecelia, Jean, Kitty, and Animated Morph. I'll get a jacket for Morph eventually.

    17960154675_0f37fd72cc_h.jpg

    X-Force, prisoners of the X-Men this group is only lacking Feral and it's likely to remain that way until a new Feral is released.

    17960154615_2c1b90e0d7_h.jpg

    The Start of my Muir Island X-Men Legion and Polaris. I have the rest of the team set up but with a shortage of arms and legs they'll have to wait.

    17960154625_4da7e6f541.jpg

    Civilian Irene Adler, Impact Blob and Legacy Virus Pyro. The next time I do a bit of painting I'll fix Destiny's cane.

    17960154645_f0081a0554_b.jpg

    1st Banshee, Siryn, Avengers Space Armor Wolverine, Ultimate Wolverine Jimmy Hudson, and Riot Armor Tyreese

    17960154705_bc232989ad_h.jpg

    Wave 60 has been such a fun wave to work with I just hope that eventually I'll be able to afford and find 12 more packs.

  8. Agents of Shield spoiler

    With the release of the Teragen crystals into the food supply I get the feeling that the enhanced population is about to experience an unexpected boom. Naturally with so many new Inhumans, Stark is going to want them registered for the protection of humanity and so he can build suits to counteract each of their powers.

    Black Panther will certainly be a wild card but I'm betting he'll end up on Cap's team. He's likely to be holding a grudge against anyone with the name Stark after the "theft" of the vibranium used in making Cap's shield and Tony will likely want access to more Vibranium to build a stronger suit.

  9. Really the only way to reboot Marvel at this point is for to destroy everything, fire everyone, tear up all contracts, shutter the doors for two to three months, and then hire all new staff based on their actual art/writing ability rather than perceived ability and name branding. Then reset continuity to the end of the first Secret War. With that base begin create an overarching time-line that gets the multiverse to 2015 and then start telling good stories once again. Maybe even have a monthly Marvel Histories comic that focuses on a different character or team each month to fill in important events that took place in the missing years keeping to the established time-line structure.

    It's universal resets like this that kept me from being a fan DC Comics. If something is working don't fix it, if it isn't working figure out why don't just dump it and reset with a new issue 1 and expect it to work. This event just seems like taking all the leftovers out of the fridge, putting them in the blender, and hoping something useful comes out the other end after the stomach pump.

    End of rant

    On the upside I'm liking some of the new characters/looks (Avengers 2099) from this and hopefully eventually (once we have Man-Thing, Squirrel Girl, Nighthawk, et al) some of these looks will turn up as most wanted minimates.

  10. Digging this thread back up. The other night while fighting a case of insomnia I had realized that the Time infinity gem hasn't surfaced yet. So, what if Civil War literally means Cap gets time shifted back to the Civil War, finds the time gem, and sets himself as protector until the Avengers can retrieve it and his shield in the future leading to another found gem and the need for a new Captain?

    It would be worth it just to see characters like Phantom Rider, Red Wolf, and the Rawhide Kid.

  11. The way I heard it, the reason for the earlier "Foreign" releases is due to the fact that theater revenue and attendance is rising there while it steadily declines here in the U.S. We only have ourselves to blame since so many now have high end home theater systems so we wait for movies to come out on netflix or blueray. It is also the reason why fewer U.S. cities are being attack/destroyed in action films. New York/Washington/L.A. can only be frozen/washed away/stepped on/nuked from orbit so many times before it becomes boring.

  12. With Howard and the possibility of a new size body I want an articulated Rocket more than ever; however he isn't the only smaller character that deserves a mate. I thought I'd put together either a TRU wave or part of a LCS wave since I can't think of a fourth character at the moment.

    Rocket and Transformation Space Venom

    Throg and Bulked Destroyer Thor

    Spider-Ham and Vulture

    With Venom, two Thor variants, and a Spider-Man variant in there it would cover the A listers as well as an updated Spider villain.

  13. Now that we're getting the Brotherhood how about Freedom Force Members and 90's X-Factor

    Havoc & Crimson Commando with extra parts for cyborg version

    Quicksilver (Black and White Suit) & Super Sabre

    Spiral & Strong Guy

    Val Cooper (X-Factor Uniform) & Multiple Man (Trench Coat)

    Follow up box set

    Polaris

    Wolfsbane

    Random

    Exodus or Stryfe

    I knew I missed one replaced army builder Multiple Man with Strong Guy since an extra Val Cooper head could be used with any civilian mate to make Freedom Force Val.

  14. So far the box sets have had I'm guessing that there will be villains from X-Men and Spider-Man at the very least. I doubt that Venom will be on the villain list since Marvel is currently trying so hard to cast him as a hero.

    So my guess is:

    Dark Phoenix or Juggernaut

    Dr. Octopus

    Thanos

    MODOK

  15. Prowl-Ar: Love the custom Goblins you made. The Wraith Buster Goblin is a riot. Date Night Goblin is funny but love that Wraith Buster!

    I have been tinkering with some of the extra goblins I was able to get and thus made some customs but not themed like yours.

    Thank you for sharing these with us.

    You're welcome.

    I'm considering the possibility, if I can find a couple of the Promo Goblins or I pick up another box set, of doing a Gamma Goblin. Basically the bulky hulk chest, upper arms and thighs with goblin lower arms and feet. Basically the Gamma muscle makes him super strong but since he can't really move he's rolled into battle and used only as an overly angry living shield.

  16. Singles

    1. Active Camo Predator

    2. Alien 3 Dog Alien

    2 Pack

    1. Zombie Jay and Silent Bob with dead Comic Book Men heads

    4 Packs

    1. Spider-verse

    Iron Spider-Man, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man 2099, and Silk

    2. TMNT Cosplay Turtles

    3. Muppets: Pigs in Space

    5 Pack Comic Guardians of the Galaxy

    Star Lord, Drax, Gamora, Transformation Space Venom, Captain Marvel with repainted mini Rocket.

    While I realize that all of this is probably wishful thinking I'm pretty sure of the Zombie two pack and that some form of the Guardians will show up due to their current popularity and the fact that there wouldn't be a need for any new parts. A new mask/helmet/head for venom would be nice but could be done with a slip-over mask and Capt. Marvel would need a second masked head with the mohawk hair.

  17. The invasion has begun. Since joining the Minimate Multiverse the Pathfinder goblins have been plundering new cultures and worlds creating new and unexpected career paths. Meet the two newest recruits to the Goblin Army.

    The Sophisticated Date Night Goblin is out on the town looking for love and trouble. With his stylish jacket and tie there isn't a high-class restaurant that he can't walk into and plunder and with his new watch he can be extra sure that he is never on time. Of course, should he find his date going badly, he has his trusty hatchet to keep things interesting.

    While ordinarily not the most technically advanced race the Wraith Buster Goblin couldn't pass up the chance to strap on a positron collider and go after the dead. Of course he also likes to use it on the living first. He also has a bad habit of using it to start campfires, roast small animals for dinner, and play practical jokes on other goblins. He also has a habit of going into battle singing, in as much as a goblin can sing, "Bustin' makes me feel good."
