Zak Katz Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Who was your favorite Butthead? (minimate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freaqualizer Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) It's so difficult to pick my favorite butthead. The one here is great. But the butthead i grew up with just holds a special place in my heart. He and beavis were like family to me.

buttheadsmate Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I was Beavis waaaaaaaaay before Beavis was & I've never been Butthead ....I am Corhholio ....er...buttheadsmate :biggrin: Boomer is my favourite although I'm not a particularly keen fan of the character but it's a lovely 'mate. Punisher,Kingpin & Spidey are damned fine Minimates & worthy redos....that's not a back handed compliment either,I like freshened up characters & these 3 benefit from the freshening. Daredevil is great as well but to me the Marvel Knights version was my first love & I'm not fickle .....it is a lovely 'mate though . The others are lovely 'mates but I have little affection or knowledge of their characters to give any sort of opinion....nice looking critters.

hellpop Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Boomer is my favourite although I'm not a particularly keen fan of the character but it's a lovely 'mate. We will soooooooooooo have to agree to disagree. I'd call it a well-executed version of a fugly fiasco. It'll be interesting to see how Boom-Boom does come end-of-the-year awards time; I could see her placing highly in both the Best and Worst categories. She's just that divisive.

MrClean Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 If you really want that pic to be comics accurate, you have to figure out some ways to hide their feet. Maybe have them standing in a puddle of water... or surrounded by smoke/fog from some unknown source... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CortherX Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) i'm digging your pics, Demonpr... maybe i'll post my team shots tomorrow! it's been so long since i've read X-Force, but was Deadpool really featured much except towards the end of New Mutants for a couple of issues? i thought about including him in my X-Force set, but opted not to...

Polarboy Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 great pics! yeah I wouldn't consider deadpool part of x-force. He is a lone wolf in my display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillbob316 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Deadpool was never a member of X-Force... he was more akin to a villain in those days if you ask me. Might be able to call him a neutral, but I honestly didn't read early X-Force much, so I could be talking out my butt... lol. But villain was how I saw him back then. But in any event, no he wasn't a featured character/member of the book. Truth be told I don't even know if he was funny yet at that point... Deadpool developed his popularity later on, when he started gaining more and more solo titles and solo momentum. Now through years of humorous development and gaining popularity, he's pretty much just grown into one of the good guys (if an extremely chaotic and unpredictable good guy who doesn't have a pesky "no killing" rule, lol)... even though I don't think he was originally conceived as one. He's part of the X-Force boxed set anyway though, because of his current popularity I assume. He and Cable are there to sell Feral and Domino (Not that there's anything wrong with Feral and Domino, but ya'know. Secondary character. Girls. Less sales power.) And while he wasn't the focus of the book, he was still one of their early characters, created alongside them, and definitely part of their roots. I wouldn't put him in a team display though, no. Fighting them maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonpr Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 yeah I have never, and probably will never, read the original x-force stuff. I'm just familiar with them from the old trading cards, and am a fan of the characters as they exist now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrClean Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Looks like my TRU restocked these today, so if anyone hasn't found them yet, you might want to keep checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm sure Marvel will retcon Deadpool into being an X-Force member at one point or another. He's probably the only real thing of value about Liefeld's work on that title (and the New Mutants before it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 And he's a ripoff of a DC character. Wade Wilson aka Deadpool: masked, 2-colored, mercenary for hire Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke: masked, 2-colored, mercenary for hire Nice job, Rob.

Nessex Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Liefeld is also only really responsible for the design of the character and his job, isn't he? The majority of his character & humour was added by writers that came after, wasn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Deadpool may have been created by Liefield but Mcguinness and Joe Kelly made him who he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
