![]() by newcollector I have spent the last year trying to figure out which Thor I wanted to display with my ML Avengers. Walmart Thor is too short, Series 3 Thor is too ugly, and Modern Thor is too big. I have been...[See More] 7 Comments | ![]() by newcollector I just couldn't get myself motivated to finish this one. Re-sizing that ML Fantomex jacket was a huge pain, but finally got it good enough.
The base figure was a ML Madame Masque. The jacket was a...[See More] 6 Comments | |
![]() by newcollector I debated posting this figure as it is very similar to the Quicksilver i just posted last month. I decided to go ahead and post since I think this version looks a lot better.
I replaced the head...[See More] 4 Comments | ![]() by newcollector Needing a Red Hood in my Batman collection was what first got me into customizing a year ago. My tastes and skills have definitely changed over the past year, so I decided to update my first...[See More] 8 Comments | |
![]() by newcollector I worked on Jubilee here in between other larger projects. She was a pretty simple custom.
The base figure is a ML Rachel Grey. I added a Jubilee BAF head and her jacket is from an older Toybiz 5"...[See More] 1 Comments | ![]() by newcollector Well, I am starting to run out of 90's teams to customize for my collection. At this point (imo) I am starting to scrap the bottom of the barrel - eXcalibre.
Here is my custom Kitty Pryde. I know...[See More] 7 Comments | |
![]() by newcollector I have seen this done a couple of times before on this site and thought it was a great idea. Used the ML Marvel Now Captain America for the base and added a ML Epic Punisher head.
This is my first...[See More] 7 Comments | ![]() by newcollector Quicksilver has had many different looks over the years. None of them have really strayed all that much from the original look (not including the green Brotherhood of evil mutants costume). I...[See More] 6 Comments | |
![]() by newcollector I was a little nervous about tackling Captain Britain because of the complexity in his costume. I decided to minimize the painted lines needed by using piping on the uniform instead. I really liked...[See More] 7 Comments | ![]() by newcollector First and foremost, I would like to start by saying that this recipe was 100% inspired by Shinobitron. He used this same recipe on a Bullseye figure about a year ago. In my opinion, Shinobitron is...[See More] 2 Comments | |
![]() by newcollector I am continuing the process of re-scaling my collection - fixing scale issues from previous versions. Recently re-did my Wonderman and Shatterstar, and now its Warblade's turn.

![]() by newcollector Warpath was made entirely from a WWE Elite Ultimate Warrior. To turn him into Warpath, i did the following:
- Cut his bangs, and attempted to sculpt some less 80's-ish bangs
- Sculpted his head...[See More] 8 Comments | ![]() by newcollector This is my second attempt at Shatterstar. My first attempt utilized a ML Fantomex base, but it just looked to small on my shelf so I decided to give him another go.

![]() by newcollector This one turned out to to a little more difficult than I had planned. I started with a DCUC Amazo base figure and planned to add Superfly Snuka feet. The feet wouldn't fit the Amazo lower legs and...[See More] 4 Comments | ![]() by newcollector I am trying to get smarter about my base figure selections. In the beginning, I would grab any random figure from the fodder bin and lather it up in gobs of paint (see my first Vision in pic #3).
