    I mean... the Slingers had a little reunion moment in the late 2010s with Scarlet Spider.
    Despite my near constant cry out for more female characters and more villains, I think a set featuring Ben Reilly, Dusk, Hornet, Prodigy & Ricochet would look pretty hot!

    I would LOVE the Slingers!  Especially Ricochet. I love his look.

    I picked up a Switch when they announced Metroid Prime Remastered. That made it easier to pull the trigger since until then my only interest was Metroid Dread and I didn't want to get a whole console just for one game. In the end I do feel that it was worth it for those two games but I also found a decent number of others that are worth a playthrough.
    I opted for the OLED at a friend's recommendation, since I use it pretty much exclusively in hand-held mode. I do notice a difference in screen quality - but if you're going to keep it hooked up to a screen, the OLED isn't as useful.

    That’s a good callout. I’ve had my Switch for many years and have only played it once in docked mode when some friends came over to play Diablo. I’ve only ever used it in handheld since. Maybe I’ll look into the OLED.

    Well shit I thought if I made it a bit vague, someone wouldn't guess it right away. 😂

    There will be 2 ordering options - Wrecker by himself, or Wrecker, Bulldozer, and Piledriver, with stickers and some of the parts needed to make Thunderball (I don't have all of the parts for him). 

    LoL! If it makes you feel any better, I’m usually wrong. And I just offer up my own personal wishlist. And I’ll definitely be ordering the option with all of the characters. I ordered a Stormbreaker Loki a long time ago as I had plans to make the Wrecking Crew, and I never did anything with it. So, I think I’m prepared to finish off the team!

    Thank you!

    Here is the hint so everyone can weigh in: This villain first appeared in the late 60’s, and was joined by other team members in the mid 70’s.

    If I’m right (which, per my wife, I very seldom am), I think the Wrecker debuted in the late 60s and the rest of the Wrecking Crew debuted in the 70s. And if it’s the Wrecker I’d lose my ever-loving mind.

    Throg seems likely due to the abundance of Kermit pieces... 

    But isn't Throg just Thor? So is it a new character?

    Thor was once turned into a frog, but Throg is his own person, IIRC. Simon Walterson was cursed and turned into a frog (called Puddlegulp) and found a sliver of mjolnir (called frogjolnir). 

    It’s almost certainly not Throg, but, damn would that be awesome! LoL 

  6. Ok. So, going by the clue: 

    MCU movie last 5 years, 2018 to 2023. Character is a He. Creative parts usage. Has never had a minimate. 

    MCU releases since 2018:  

    Black Panther, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Infinity War, Captain Marvel, Endgame, Far From Home, Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Eternals, No Way Home, Multiverse of Madness, Love and Thunder, Wakanda Forever, Quantumania. Please correct me if I’m missing something. 

    I was thinking it might be Man-Ape, but, we did get M’Baku (if that counts). The unconventional materials is where I’m stuck. I think that rules out most characters coming to mind. 

    So, out of left field, my next guess is Razor Fist. First appeared in 75. Doesn’t have a minimate. He’s a him. Unconventional materials for the sword hands.

    Oh, a couple other good ones:

    -The Jack Knight Starman is pretty easy to do, if you have the cosmic staff that came with Stargirl (the Star Spangled Kid). You'd also need a black overcoat and goggles. That might be the hardest part, since none of the existing 'mates ones work that well. Or at least they didn't when I made him, years ago.

    -Someone mentioned Black Canary, and she's very much needed. I'd suggest modeling her on her Justice League Unlimited look as much as possible. You can design a decal with a short blue waistcoat, or if you want to go the parts route I know there's a few that fit the bill. Also the little sonic accessory that came with Banshee and Siryn is perfect for her.

    -The masked Marvel Girl hairpiece that came in the X-Men vs Brotherhood box set allows you to easily make a favorite character of mine-The Huntress! I personally like the classic Earth 2 version of her, but the modern one is okay as well.

    -If you have any cowboy hats on hand, you can make Jonah Hex!

    -Arguably the biggest missing character from the DC line is Two Face. Unfortunately, he's rather difficult to do because there's not a hairpiece that matches his neat on one side, wild on the other style. The closest I've ever found is this one from the Terminator 2 line: http://minimatedatabase.com/figure.php?i=743&n=Half+Human+Terminator

    I apologize for spamming this thread, today and in the future. DC Minimate customs is kind of my wheelhouse. 😄

     

    Re: Two-Face

    The composite Hulk hair is what i had planned on using for Two-Face. It’s kinda shaggy on one side and then spiked on the other.
