Custom Marvel Minimate Preorder Thread

[luke314pi]

I have started production on Nuke and he is on schedule to start shipping at the end of the month. Here is a hint for my next Marvel custom after Nuke: A villain who prefers to work behind the scenes. This custom will go live the first week of May.

Arcade?

Classic Arcade fits the theme of this line so far. I'd be happy with that.

Tinkerer.

Seconded.

[CBMM1]

I'd be so down for a Tinkerer!

[buttheadsmate]

The first person I thought of was ...er...me .  

 

The Mad Thinker?

My first thought when I read Luke's clue on Facebook was "Oh cool a Rob minimate." Then somehow his minimate would collect everything my minimate has out from under him 

[luke314pi]

It is a classic Tinkerer, and he comes with some cool accessories.

 

[Tommy Wiseau]

Rad!

With the amount of care put into the others, I was expecting him to have some neat gadgets. Really looking forward to getting in on him!

The Tinkerer is up for preorder! This classic villain comes with a desk, automatic laser rifle, blueprints for this rifle, goggles, screwdriver, and extra machine parts. This custom is a limited edition of 30, and you can preorder him here: https://goo.gl/forms/IcImvjmx2ZhkGUg62

 

For those of you who preordered Nuke, he will start shipping tomorrow!

Does the Bionicle part fit over a Minimate chest piece? ‘Cause that would be awesome! He looks great, Luke. 

[arnim zola]

Oooooh thank you subscription!

[Tetton517]

At this rate, I should have bought a subscription.  

[Tommy Wiseau]

Looks awesome! Submitted my pre-order form

[Nessex]

Damn, Luke! This guy looks fantastic. The liver spots on the top of his head, and the printing that goes over the front, and continues along to the top of the chest block really make him look amazing.
I'm loving this line of customs so far.

Thanks guys!

I checked, and no it just barely doesn't fit. But maybe with some trimming it could!

Do you have a glue recommendation for your stickers, Luke? My Jarvis head wrap sticker came loose and I am not sure what to use to stick it back in place. Thanks!

Yeah with Jarvis I didn't realize that these stickers would peel off during humidity changes. After making that run I started gluing the stickers on any bald characters. So to fix it, get a small amount of superglue on a toothpick or scrap of paper. Apply it to the last 1/4" of his head where the sticker should end, push the sticker down on top of it, and then either hold it for two minutes, or put a piece of scotch tape on it until the glue has cured.

[Onyx_6]

Thanks! His Skrull head stays just fine, so far.

[luke314pi]

The Tinkerer is now sold out - thanks everyone! I am still putting the finishing touches on Nuke.

I threw together a Tinkerer a few years ago, but yours is so nice that I ordered one-- the ultimate customizer compliment.

I appreciate that!

Another good looking figure

[Freaqualizer]

I received my Nuke today. And he’s freaking amazing! Great job!

The hint for the mate after the Tinkerer is for a cool looking Hulk villain that’s only appeared in one issue. Hmmmmmmm..I like Hulk villains!
