undeadpool Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 um....the legs and arms are from one of the newer Thing minimates, the cuffs are painted Rachel Grey cuffs, the feet are painted robin or harley quinn feet, the chest and crotch pieces are painted blue with details done by pen and the head is from transformation venom with Nova's hair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) I'm surprised how excited I am to get this B team. My set shipped today. My first exposure to Alpha Flight was the Steven Seagle and Scott Clark series from the 90's. They had some cool costumes in that run.

darthdoughboy Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Its uncanny how you guys can suss out exact plans based on just a few clues. No, I'm really constantly shouting "dammit!" at my screen WhenevEr you guys magically guess exactly whAt the next box set or seRiEs breakdoWn or even license is gonnA be. GranTed, the next person then goes miles off Course, but still HavIng even oNe or two people predict our plans is pretty amazinG. Well, Zach, you have to know that sometimes those bugs at the office are not always of the insect variety. Which reminds me, tell Chuck those double chocolate chip cookies he had in his bottom drawer were great and your right mutton chop was about a centimeter too long yesterday (threw your whole look off).

Let me get this straight... you can remote-taste food in the Maryland office AND you have cameras in my house? (I'm on paternity leave.)

MinnesotaIceman Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Well NR is not around as much as she used to be and we've yet to train an assistant archivist/super-searchologist to magically produce links to other older posts the way she can. You don't know how much you depend on something like that until it's not there. Man I miss her. NR = North Raider, right? I spoke to her fairly recently. She's been having comp issues.

gambitron Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Got my Alpha Flight today and my Northstar's leg broke on first movement! Hopefully DST will respond to my e-mail request for a replacement part! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessex Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I love that they went with the more traditional shaped hand for Sassy over sculpted claws. Also - it's great to see so many characters coming together from one team so quickly. Any Alpha Flight characters that get made after this will just be gravy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Snowbird's face creeps me out I like it. Reminiscent of when the beast took over her personality and she looked frightening, like something out of a nightmare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
717cris717 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 To me, she looks weird since she has no eyebrows, but it's something I can get use to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I don't like Snowbird's face either, but I think this pic is one of those Photoshop deals, and I always like the production samples much better. I'm not sure about Sasquatch either, but, again, I'm sure that will change. Yeah, nice that they're just going ahead and giving us the team basically at once. We go from zero to ten Alpha Flight members! Like I said a few pages ago, Talisman's probably the biggest remaining omission. I wouldn't mind seeing Aurora in her yellow and white outfit, but I'm not dying for it either. Good work DST! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highassroller Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 AWESOME!!!!! I would have preferred Sculpted claws on the Sasquatch but I'm just glad to see one after sooooo many years. This is so awesome to get a complete team so quickly! AWESOME!!!!! I would have preferred Sculpted claws on the Sasquatch but I'm just glad to see one after sooooo many years.

slipstream Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I wonder if they've considered some sort of sculpted extra hands to allow Northstar & Aurora to hold hands? That would be amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to have a custom made if it can be safely assumed she won't be made. DST has made some really obscure Marvel costumes throughout the years (Puffy sleeved Psylocke anyone?) so I'm gonna wait a while but I would LOVE to have her. The tampo on my Northstar's chest is smeared and looks like they didn't finish painting it! sadness! Outside of a few really rubbery arms on the movie Avengers I've NEVER had issues with quality on my Minimates. Oh well, I guess I'll pose Aurora flying in front of him so it's not noticable.
