Jean is part of Wave 5:

Thanks, I'm glad you're liking how Sugarman is coming along.

Info: - Lower and upper torso are connected now. He stands just short of 8" right now. He's going to be blending the lower legs soon. It will all blend with the upper thighs. - He did away with the Birdie arms. He is now Balrog on the top and Blanka on the bottom set. Then blend together a lot nicer. - He filled in all the screw holes and blended in the battery pack, as well. Should paint up nicely.

Another update from CaptainRon on A.O.A. Sugarman:

Got finished pictures of Mr. X, Mach V, and Crossbones. Captain Odious is gonna take some better pictures over the weekend before shipping. Mr. X: Mach V: Crossbones:

Wow, awesome work on the sculpting and painting. He looks great, you planning on making any of the other Fear Itself guys.

A picture of the next batch being sent to IBMM-T after "Dark X-Men" Emma Frost, Mystique, and Beast. Added bodies for Emma Frost (Uncanny X-Men look), and Frenzy (X-Men: Legacy look): Already sent the gauntlets and boots for Frenzy that's why she's missing them.

Got a update on Kraken from lantern93, whose been working on laying down the lines of the costume on Kraken. old update:

Finally convinced mad_harleyq from Fwoosh to sell me his Ms. Marvel custom that he put together, he planned on scrapping the body for someone else so I'm glad I'm getting it. Now to who should I ask to paint it for me. Those other customs belong to him not me.

Got pictures of Mach V and Mr. X (re-done) from Captain Odious: Mr. X:

Got a update from CaptainRon on my AOA Sugarman: Info: -He got the ball joints for the arm in place. He went with SF Birdie Arms for the top and T Hawk Arms for the lower. -Still needs to decide on the lower set's lower arms. -This was definitely a fun engineering project for him, getting all that stuff in place. He had to dissect an Birdie torso, split it in half and then wedge it inside SM's torso. He reinforced in with lots of plumber epoxy on the inside. -He lopped off his lower torso to make way for the Smart Hulk lower torso. Should come together nicely. He's leaning towards the SF Blank lower legs. He'll blend them up with the Smart Hulk thighs. Still need to figure out a good set of feet. -His face way another fun challenge. Voice box is gone, as is the action feature. He mounted his lower jaw in place and then sculpted around it. Really dig the way the inside of the mouth turned out. He thinks it will look pretty sweet once he gets to paint it up. He'll use some glossy paints in there and make it look nice and wet/messy. -He also has a cool set of horns he's gonna swap out for the crappy sculpted on ones SM already has.

Getting this Moonstone from Holy_Ghostbuster from figurerealm.

Captain Odious showed me a custom he made of Shatterstar from X-Factor and I had to have him so I convinced him to sell him to me.

Got a early update on the punisher-based Cyclops from Ben Truwe of Fwoosh:

Another update from captain odious on Mach V:

Got a update on Mach V from captain odious:

Got a update from Captain Odious on "Thunderbolts" Crossbones:

You continue to impress me. You are hitting these out of the park.

Got a package yesterday with Magneto, Rogue, Gambit, Omega Weapon, and Dr. Nemesis so I took a shot of them before adding them to the display: Oh, and I have this Cyclops coming from Ben Truwe of Fwoosh to go along with my Hope, Danger, Colossosnaut, and Namor. Currently have him making another one but based off the shield agent body to go along with my Angel, Storm, and Nightcrawler.

Oh man, now I know I'll have trouble winning him.

Very nice, would you consider selling him. He's one of the remaining characters I need for that team.

Yup, I pay $120 for a case.

The next bunch that will be done by IBMM-T after "Dark X-Men" Emma Frost, Mystique, and Beast. "Uncanny X-Force" Fantomex, Wolfsbane (human-form), Vanisher, "Dark X-Men" Namor, and "Mighty Avengers" Sentry:

Finished pictures of Rogue & Dr. Nemesis with the Mags and Gambit. Should be receiving them next week.
