I still lurk but haven't posted in ages, hopefully I still count.
-
Watched it, loved it. Thought they could've skipped the Jar Jar storyline, and it would've been nice for some closure on Ahsoka, but it was definitely enjoyable.

Theres a legends PR comparison at the end of this White Ranger review - http://www.tomopop.com/tomopop-review-s-h-figuarts-mmpr-white-ranger-32070.phtml
I've got red and green so far, and pink is sitting in my Pile of Loot right now. I plan on completing the team of six (no white, since I don't do duplicate characters) and any extras/bad guys they make. They're great figures - blow all the north american figures out of the water.
-
Wow, it's been almost 10 years for me. It was Marvel Legends that drew me here...don't post very often anymore but I still lurk.
-
I saw you posted and got excited, haha. The group looks great together, almost didn't see Ghost in there too.
Very much looking forward to Black Cat on that new Moonstone body.
-
I read it, it was pretty good. The writing was a bit over the top. The "familial link" was interesting, has that been mentioned before? I'm not as well-versed in the lore as I used to be.
-
Sorry, the thread is a little unclear - is there actually an after-credits scene? Because this is the first I'm hearing of it, and there's nothing to support this on google.
-
Nice looking group. I feel sorry for IBMMT, that's a lot of white.
-
No moralez Spidey, sorry.
He does have a punching action - a tab on his lower back and spring loaded waist. Makes the waist joint kinda useless.
-
In my experience he was pretty hard to come by, first off. The legs are really long, I actually shortened mine for a more proportionate Ultimate Spider-man (it's a much younger looking physique).
This is mine, with about 1/2 an inch taken out of the upper legs (you can see if you compare mine to the careded one). Also customized his hair too, in case it threw you off.
-
I have a Ripclaw head that would look decent, but it's too...peaceful. Hard to find good angry heads.
-
No, never got that head cast, completely forgot about it actually. I may just redo mine - it was a hollowed out beast hair piece with a mix-matched face in it, so I could probably pull out the face and put in a better one to keep the crazy hair.
-
Nice trick with the soldering iron, have to see it painted to see how well it actually worked though. I remember asking someone on Fwoosh about how they did their lines, and I can't for the life of me remember who it was or how they did it. Haha.
The base for Cable looks pretty good. I really want to use Hyperion's head for something, it's a great sculpt. I'm borderline on the figure though, mine has a loose shin twist and two left biceps...I can deal with both with a bit of glue and resculpting, since I was planning on using him for AoA Gladiator anyway, but I dunno, it lessened my urge to do it.
Totally going to use X-force Wolvie to fix the now vastly inferior AoA Wolvie. I was just going to replace the legs and find a better head than the one I made, but the new one's shoulders are also bulkier so I may switch out the upper arms too. Gotta sand down the boot straps like you did though. Is yours missing paint, or is the blue just an effect of the flash?
-
Yup, that turned out excellent.
-
Looks pretty good, like that he's got the swappable heads. The white X doesn't look quite look right though (too skinny on the bottom parts).
-
I did find those....just thought I'd ask. Out of sight out of mind you know, I find myself using them a lot less now that they're not "right there".
-
The buttons, for Star Wars, Tfs, Marvel, etc vanished from the top of the page (beside the logo). Where'd they go?
-
Hey bud, would you mind taking a pic of Hyperion next to your AOA Sabertooth custom? I have...ideas. Haha.
-
Those looks really good together, that Iceman is badass. Besides the boots, I don't really see anything off with Nate.
I still need to find a new jacket for my Nate, and I still want to redo my Cyke. And I'm still waiting on better fodder to come out before I start sinister too...otherwise I'll just resort to using Scorpion.
-
Those guys look great together. Now that custom secret santa is pretty much done, I can go back to ignoring my AoA wips full-time. haha
-
Love that Kraken. And Ben's Wolverine. The others too, but those especially.
-
Never had any doubt that Sugar Man would look awesome. The man did great work, pretty seemless integration of parts right there.
-
Yes, it has continued on in spite of the reboot. Some things have been tweaked to fit in with the rest of the New 52 (likes Hals involvement in Justice League), but the majority of it is the same (and no, it doesn't sit outside of the new continuity).
-There has been an appearance or two by the Stormwatch team (which includes Martian Manhunter), so they do interact with the rest of the 52 cast.
-Hal is still exiled, but Sinestro makes him a new ring and the two kind of team up. Not as bad as it sounds.
-There is a new lantern that showed up recently, Simon Baz - I won't spoil the story, but his is very important to some other characters.
-The only real difference when reading these titles is that Hal has a more armored look to his uniform...heh.
All 4 titles are pretty good (Gl, GLC, Red Lanterns, and New Guardians) - they're pretty much the only DC I read now.
-
Be sure to post that when it's done, Doomy
Enter For A Chance To Win A Set Of 6" Black Series Wave 18 Figures - Bespin Han Solo, Tobias Beckett, Rebel Fleet Trooper & Tarkin

Han looks good, but the face looks a bit off. No one seems to have perfected the Harrison Ford likeness quite yet.
Beckett and the trooper look great, will definitely need to pick them up.
