  1. Pairs sound fine, assuming you try and shoot for logical ones. Can't wait to see a group pic.
  2. I see we got a bunch of Wanted fans here I also gave Optimus Prime his energy axe.
  3. Thanks luke! I've noticed that I've been liking the final results of my customs more than I have in the past. Well, todays comes another Wanted offering, which I guess not many people here have read. Oh well. WARNING: Basic plot follows! Not the ending or anything though Pretty much, the real world used to be like the Golden Age of comics, then all the super villains banded together, defeated the heroes, and remade the world like it is today, and they run everything from behind the scenes. All the characters are clear analogues of famous DC characters, and the big war thing happened to take place in 1986, when Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns was released, and the Crisis of Infinite Earths happened. Well, there's this one villain, The Killer (creative name), never misses a shot, AKA Deadshot, or Bullseye. Well, he gets killed and so they find his son, who never knew his father, and train him to replace him. I was making his son, but I'm low on Minimate weapons, and since we never see Ol' Pa Killer use a gun when he's in the pouches and leather getup, I made an alternate head to have the original Killer. Killer 2, who I'm only making because he's the main character, I really dislike him in just about every way possible, will be coming later when I get some weapons. Maybe I'll have a Transformer too, to catch people's interest.
  4. Unfortunately, I think for the sake of it being a charity project, we should only sell through one site, and ebay = more people. Deadline's coming up, I gotta get this sent off.
  5. You've got a definite eye for making this guys, Ethernet is so cool!
  6. Thanks. Well, time for a Transformers break. Today, we have Mr. Rictus, from Mark Millar's Wanted. "Once, he saved souls. Now, he damns them. The man who would become Mr. Rictus was once a devout Christian, the most pious of men. But he died briefly on the operating table after a horrible accident. He expected heaven, but found... Nothing." It seemed right to make a Minimate of a twisted madman who is the main villain of "The Detective" out of the Joker, who he's clearly an analogue of. I only noticed today that the DC Joker has a bit of an oddity about him. To accommodate the jacket, his neck is much longer than a normal 'Mate's, giving him full articulation. I haven't been picking up many newer Minimates, but I've never seen this before on any other. Anywho, The Killer is next.
  7. Might have something to do with which characters are most recognizable :biggrin: Nah, tons of credit goes to you TENIME
  8. Woah, getting violent With all due respect to Deadpool, Ratchet is far more likely than Kup. I'm thinking I'll do two more for each team.
  9. I just took apart a really, really old digital camera. And actually, It think I might have gotten it to work with it's entire shell off. I might not want to take this apart
  10. Thanks! Yeah, I guess he is a tad short. I was really just working with what I had, and also the fact that a tape player is far smaller than a jet. But he goes all mass shifting crazy, and if usually as big a Megatron. I make a 2.5" one in the future. So I guess an Autobot would be next, hm....
  11. Oh man, I might have to steal another of your ideas. Maybe next year's Chaitymates project, eh?
  12. Here's Soundwave to balance out the Autobots and Decepticons. Featuring an opening tape deck and removable tape!
  13. Prowl gets my vote. I admit I'm not too knowledgeable about Transformers but being a Police car helps stand out design wise. Have you done Unicron yet?
  14. Well,I started Soundwave. Hopefulle my idea for the opening tape deck works.
  15. I assure you, the Mummy isn't dirty, it just looks that way Now, does anybody have an suggestions for the next Decepticon to make?
  16. Thanks for the comments! So, who knows where I can get some cheap Minimates Max to make Unicron?
  17. Howdy folks, the Mummy is done! More pics over at my gallery Fujis, what's the word on ABS' involvement?
  18. I don't think I currently own the rights to Transformers at the moment, but I'd have to check Now, I've been done this guy for a while, I just haven't posted it, because I've been working on his packaging (just a simple little box) But I figured, what the hell? Here's my contribution for the Minimate Charity Project: The Mummy! Oh, and I've decided that if somebody else is going to own it, I'm at least going to sign it
  19. No,I guess I worded that wrong. There were 8 cars in the set, and for whatever reason, only 2 were die-cast. I could tell this from the package, and I Wanted plastic cars to use, so it was relatively perfect. I can't do anything with the Die-Cast ones, the exacto would break. Thanks for the comments!
  20. Thanks for all the comments, I'm glad to hear people would actually want these things (hint hint Art Asylum) This is really the busiest I've been with customs in a long time. Well, it looks like I took one of Energy-Man's suggestions, and made Jazz Oh, and it would seem I've started messing with the scale.... Besides Energy-Man's suggestion, the character was really chosen because.... A: It was one of th characters I was familiar with (I grew up on Beast Wars really) B: I had the parts. Found a set of cheap cars advertised as "Die-Cast" that really only had 2 metal cars in the whole thing. And none of them looked like a Bug.
  21. Happy B-Day, mine is in less than a month. I think I'll go with 57
