DSTZach Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I wish I'd done it with a suit magically appearing, but I thought I was pushing it by including Colossus and Nightcrawler in shots, let alone a suit that isn't in the set. And thanks for the Colossus idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilbofett Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Someone with talent(not me), should make a male chest decal for this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) Picked up the Lego Blackbird and modified it for Minimates. Not perfect but hey... it's sure better than nothing. Here's pics for anybody interested. Edited July 22, 2014 by Mystery Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystery Man Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thanks! The set needs some wheels for take off and I wish it was more to scale... but it's still neat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I kinda want that blackbird - but i'm really not in love with the sentinel. Think I'm gonna wait till the $12 pirated version comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 The sentinel is so fugly. Same goes for Groot. Lego can't do big characters at all lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I bought the Blackbird by itself on eBay. It was around $15. That's usually how I do these things since I want 'em to go with Minimates and not Lego people. I wish it was bigger but if another one comes out, it's still a fun ship that I'm glad I bought.

Wes Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Just got this set in the mail…and wow!!!! I love story-themed box sets like this anyway, but this one just blew everything out of the water! I was concerned that Wolverine's coat looked "off", like many others, but getting him in hand, it was a different story. He looks great! Very evocative of the character from DOFP. Mystique was amazing, and such a perfect upgrade! The Senator Kelly head was awesome (the little extras always are!) and I promptly stuck it on an extra suit-body I had purchased for just such an occasion. The morphing head was very cool, but maybe a Raven head would have been a tad cooler and more useful. Kitty looked great, and I am sooooo glad that she had the parts for the green jumpsuit look. Very cool that people can recreate the iconic cover, but to me, Future Kitty needs to have the bun and be in the jumpsuit. Also, the Sentinel was very, very nice. I liked that he was taller, and the colors were excellent. This whole set was a big home run in my opinion. I hope we see some more classic-themed box sets like this in the future! Bring on Phoenix Saga and Dark Phoenix Saga!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just picked this up from work as well. I love it to death, honestly. Mystique is perfect, tne Sentinel is perfect, and Wolverines Coat is still pretty sexy lol. Due to this boxset, I am now setting up a new X-men group in my display (One character from each alt reality or timeline so I have an excuse to use the AoA, AoX, so on) so I have a use for Zombie Magneto, DoFP Logan, ANXM Raze/Kate Pryde, AoX Cyclops, AoA Rogue, and so on.

Great idea, but I like to keep my zombis away from the other mates. I don't want a Zombie outbreak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I did something similar with an Exiles team I crafted out of the teamless Multiple Man, Shanna, Blink, and Captain America - Erik Lehnsherr. They're arch rivals? The DarkEST Avengers - Captain America (Flash Thompson in the Fighting Chance armor), King Hulk, Iron Man (Norman Osborn in a modded Heartbreaker/Phoenix Killer), Hawkeye (Ennis/Bradstreet Frank Castle with a Sniper Rifle), Black Widow (Yelena Belova bonded to the Venom symbiote), and Thor... God of War (NOW Thor/Ares mashup) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthBurkie Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Thanks for the pics of the Lego Jet, Mystery! Just got mine in the mail and love it! It does need landing gear but that's not a deal breaker. I found myself humming the 90s animated theme as I was putting it together. Now just need to decide which X-Men mates are going in it.

bigvis497 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Nobody usually comments on this stuff but it's the kind of thing that always grabs my attention: The legs/feet in this set are almost perfectly even. Most Minimates stand slightly crooked from the miniscule difference, none of that here! This mold is TRU10 levels of good, hope we see it used in all future sets.

bilbofett Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Got this off ebay at cost. Nice set. Painted up some bodies in the green suits. Rachel's suit is a little darker. Guess I should've waited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
