The two kings of Minimate QCs. Perhaps some friendly competition will be sparked.

Looking forward to what see what comes.

That would require me to start customizing again. I haven't created any new minimates since the last customes I posted in my thread and the last custom figure I did was Megatonus Magnas. a bash of Megatron and ultra Magnus where in alternate history where Optimus is mortally wounded and Megatron's body id destroyed. In order to save one Alpha Trion is forced to choose and Optimus sacrifices himself so his friend can live. Megatron then takes leadership of the disenfranchised autobots and the less violent decepticons and tries to lead according to Optimus' ideals. Basically I came across a Megatron and a gay Ultra Magnus and popped the megatron head on the armor and came up with the story. LOL

Basically I'm saying Captain Paco can take the throne if he wants it. 😉

 

At least until Walmart or Target decide to start carrying minimates and they are readily available again.😈

I am merely a customizer, Prowlar, you are the King as you have good backstories and I am merely going for the looks you make and share with a means to impersonate them and make them mine to a different degree. I could never fully dethrone you nor would I attempt to take the crown.  I merely wanted to share I enjoy your custom MiniMates and hope to one day see more of them.

One thing I have recently discovered is that I need to fully go through my stash of Minimates before I shop Luke's Toy Store or eBay as I now have extras of ones I already had extras of.

I am working on some Marvel What If? customs that are simple to make if you have the right stuff. I will share images once I actually set up the display in my office.

I keep two image folders on a sd card the first with each official character I have including those I've gotten for the variant look/character and the second for customs. That way I can know just by looking what I have. I clip images of what has or is going to be released and keep those handy as well so I know exactly what I still need. Makes life much easier that having to constantly sort through everything.

I look forward to seeing your customs. I'm sure eventually I'll open up the boxes of parts and do some more customizing.

So to update my status.

i am working on ideas for the March of Minimates and even if I don't post them via the contest, I will be posting them here.

I can say that some are my inspiration from Prowlar and some are ideas I have wanted for a while with some creative licensing involved but look decent.

I only wish DC Minimates were more common and at reasonable prices.  So I am working within my means to make what I am making.

 

Happy Groundhog Day.

Nice work. Those all look great! I especially like Ultraman.

Thanks, your comment means a lot to me. I did use a lot of creative licensing with what parts I had on hand.

Amazing stuff, brilliant .

 

BTW who is the donor for Sea-King's head?

THANK YOU! I believe I used a Thor head. I think maybe from the Armored Thor minimate.  I just dabbed a little white paint on the left eye to blind it.

Really like that Talon and Citizen Cold.

Thank you Prowlar, I appreciate that compliment.

Talon and Citizen Cold were the two I was most doubtful about.

For Talon: I used an Antman body with the chest block reversed, a Warpath head and I an not sure whose hair and a Rictor shoulder piece which I painted.

For Citizen Cold, I am not 100% whose parts are what, but I think it is a Shatterstar chest block, a Doctor Octopus head, and I think the legs, hip and arms are from an Angel minimate and I think the hood is a Spider-Gwen with the inside painted white.

I was not sure about Venus. So I have alternate versions.

Version 2

and then there is version 3

and then I have version 4 which has some nice qualities but I am not fully satisfied with.

I wanted to do a comparison of my Custom Black Canary and my new Earth Three Black Siren.

Black Canary

Black Siren (the evil counterpart)

Same persona just two different universes of the multiverse.

If I had the means, I would have made Devilray (The Earth Three variant of Black Manta,) But the Lego parts for Black Manta are on the pricy side.

But here are a few more comparisons.

My custom Poison Ivy and my custom Earth Three variant Venus.

Next: Firestorm and Deathstorm

I have also been working on an Alternate Earth Concept sort of based upon the What If concept.

I have North America has Socialist come to settle what we know as the United States of America and found the United Socialist States of Amerika.  So here are some of what they would have in the line of Socialist Super Soldiers.

bzgsBzp.jpg

Black Arachnia, Titanium Man, Crimson Widow, Radioactive Man, Amerikan Guardian and Crimson Dynamo.

Here are two more members of the Socialist Super Solders: Hammer and Sickle.

 

Then to counter the United Socialist States of Amerika, you would have the USR. The Unified Soviets of Russia.

This is where the USSR was in our reality but was founded by democratic people and thus developed to be more like our United States of America only in Asia.

The Soviet Avengers: Sokol (This world's Falcon), White Widow (Black Widow), Darkstar (Scarlet Witch), Crimson Arachnid (Spider-man), Captain Russia (Captain America), Vostok (Vision), Perun (Thor), and Iron Dynamo (Iron Man).

Black Panther (Ally of the Soviet Avengers from Wakanda), Starlight (Captain Marvel) and Iron Curtain (War Machine) are other supporting members of the Soviet Avengers.

Your creativity out did me there. I never considered that What If when doing my customs. And as a bonus your Perun works as a normal Soviet Super Soldiers 616 Perun as well. Congratulations, they're all wonderful.
