Polarboy Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 I have started on a big project for myself, The Legion of Superheroes! the greatest DC team ever! Anyway I imagine if I do get this finished it will take me forever and who knows maybe I can get suggestions and help as I go along (and possible give up after three figures). Here is where I'm at thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Good luck! I've actually made most of the Legion, though I don't think I ever showed them. I do have decals and stuff I can share, and I do think at least a few of them are still up at the old Minimate Factory, and might even be in the old decal thread. They are almost all from the early 80's pre-Crisis comics. So yeah, hit me up if you have any questions or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Thanks for that Hellpop, Ok I have finished my first custom (Yeah I can be as slow as a wet week when it suits me) I give to you Spider Girl! She was basically my backup entry for the recent bad guy customising contest but she came together before what I thought was going to be my entry so here she is. She is far from perfect so I may revist and try to improve her at some point, but at the moment Im enjoying her on my shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Ok any help with this would be appreciated. I brought these two customs of luke a while back and I would like to identify the parts used mainly Mon's cape and brainys head and body thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AugieWargo Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Brainiac's body is Professor Hullk's without the slide on chest piece and his face is Ska'ar's. Edited December 16, 2019 by AugieWargo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) I'm drawing a blank on that blue cape but as a huge fan of the pre-Crisis Legion, I'm looking forward to seeing your progress! EDIT: Found the cape style but it's a different color. Hail Ivan! Edited December 16, 2019 by MisterPL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 For Mon-El, I used M.Bison as my base, with the chest, cape (trimming off the shoulder pads), and skirt all being pretty spot-on IMHO. Use Mar-Vel's legs for nice blue boots. For Brainy, there are several purple chestblocks with nice detail, mostly from the Green Goblin, that are pretty easy to match with arms and legs. And he needs his force field belt; I used one from an old C3 Batman, can't remember which, but there are a bunch that work well. I really like your Spider Girl by the way! I had not thought about making her with the Medusa hair, but it works perfectly. I'm gonna steal that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 The cape looks like the one used on nearly all the early minmates in the style, but the colour is a strange one. I would have thought a Dr Doom cape or maybe Black Bnight would have been the start for Mon El because of the round bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Looks like maybe a Valkyrie cape? Edited December 20, 2019 by elhonez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy Posted January 9, 2020 Author Share Posted January 9, 2020 Ladies and Gentlemen I give you the third strongest person in the universe (some of the time) Night Girl As is their want to do, the legion rejected Lydaa because her powers only worked in deep shadow or darkness. If only they had a team member who had the power to cast shadow. Crazy kids. Anyway if anybody can help it turns out it's pretty hard to make 3 identical figs from your parts bin (go figure) so if anybody has the Jean Grey hair piece from wave 59 (non powered version) colour doesn't matter if its been used elsewhere and one of the ladies heads from the Buck Rodgers box set it would be greatly appreciated. I have paypal to pay ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 (edited) Here is what was going to be my entry originally for the villain contest a while back, I give you one time Legionnaire full time turd Nemesis Kid. I also have a little bit of a Legion of Super Villains thing going. As this project chugs along at a glacial pace, I realise I haven't actually made any proper Legionaries yet (even though technically all three so far were in the Legion at one point or another) so I'm thinking next custom should be a founder.
