That Deadpool is pretty awesome. Much better than the WO release. I'm going to have to keep my eyes open for it.

 

[darthdre758]

That Deadpool is the same as the WO version, with new webgear and had. So...it's not much better.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

i don't even know who SS is, but he looks awesome!

Really? The arms and torso look different to my eye.


EDIT- took a second and third look- you're totally right. Oh well. I do like this head and web gear better though. Maybe I won't pull this one apart.

 

[bigdaddyblue73]

Wow those could actually get me to buy that line again. IF I ever see them in my area.

The hands may be different.

The only reason I know it's the same mold is I've done about four Deadpool customs since he hit the pegs so many years ago.

Hmm. I think I'll post them now that I'm thinking about it.

 

[Midget]

I'd like to see those. I started one using a SE body.. but I never finished as the head always looked to big, and the body not muscular enough.

 

[K-Tiger]

A tactical Deadpool would be awesome. But then by necessity he wouldn't be encased in red and black Lycra so fanboys would mess themselves with impotent rage.


I smell a custom.

 

[Midget]

His X-Force look is black and grey. Same uniform pretty much. There's a figure coming out soon of it.

 

[K-Tiger]

You seemed to have missed the anti-Lycra sentiment in my first post.

 

[darthdre758]

Yeah, the X-Force figure is sweet looking. Same body again, but still looks a lot better in the colors.

 

[Midget]

You seemed to have missed the anti-Lycra sentiment in my first post.

Just stick the X-Force head on a repainted SV body. Bing bang boom you're done.

 

[K-Tiger]

That could work, but i was thinking of different options.

 

[Midget]

That could work, but i was thinking of different options.

For example?

 

[K-Tiger]

I'm convinced 95% of wave 3 Snake Eyes will work.

 

[Midget]

Which one was that? The one with the ninja visor and timber?

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

it was the one that was the best SE to date and made every future version of SE pointless

 

[K-Tiger]

it was the one that was the best SE to date and made every future version of SE pointless

Affirmative, Ghostrider.

 

[Midget]

Oh.. PoC SE.... gotcha

 

[K-Tiger]

The problem is finding a good ninjato for him. I hate every ninja running around with katanas.

 

[Midget]

Just cut one of the swords down.

 

[K-Tiger]

Don't want to do that.

 

[Midget]

You don't want to cut down a SE or SS sword?

 

[K-Tiger]

Nope, don't like them at all for conversion.

 

[Midget]

Well, it doesn't have to be theirs.... any will do

 

[K-Tiger]

Hasbro could make a good sword if their lives depended on it, save for the commando SE one.

I could probably piecemeal one together fairly easily.

 

[xhairs]

i like the line but i wont get in to it as i hate the ball joint legs. also cant afford another toy line lol. they have made some killer stuff.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

i'm with you x...i want tso badly to get into this line (i'm okay with the balljoints) but just don't NEED another line...but they look so cool displayed together...

 

[Midget]

I pick them up sporadically. Mostly just characters that I like, or the ones that happen to be well designed (WW Hulk for example).

I've thought about replacing DP legs with some Joe style ones.

 

[oddball]

found two phasing visions today. picked up one, left the other. he is pretty neat looking.

 

[Midget]

Ooh… hmm do I need a Vison?…. yes, yes I do. I'm missing a few from my Avengers team.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

i'm the same way...i think i have four...two Caps and two Hulks...both of the originals, the SDCC Cap (so bada$$) and WW Hulk...like you said, he's just reeally well designed and just looks incredibly cool...

i also have a Juggernaught(sp) that i have yet to open

 

[Midget]

I've got a few more than that. I seem to have collected quite a stash of them. All of the Ghost Rider/Thanos wave were awesome... I'm trying to find a Cpt Briain and a few others still.

 

[nacho]

I never saw Capt Britain in the wild. The good news is that the modern deco version will be released in the Captain America movie line, and the original all-red deco will be in the upcoming MU comic packs. If you want the Alan Davis/Excalibur look, then you're likely going to have to hit ebay or pray HTS gets a few more in.

 

[Midget]

I really prefer the Excalibur look. I figured that would be an Ebay item. He and Archangel are proving impossible to find.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

i passed up a Hawkeye a couple months ago...really kicking myself

 

[nacho]

Never saw Archangel in the wild either, not either version. Had to ebay those too. I pretty much pre-order all the MU figures b/c the idea of finding them in a store is becoming a fairy tale.

 

[Midget]

Yeah, I am too. I wish they would pull a SW and re-release the damn things and undercut the ebay market.

I've seen the Hawkeye a few times. You want one Eddie?

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

if you stumble upon one, sure, pick it up for me, i'll gladly take him off your hands...but don't go out of your way...like i've mentioned, i'm trying to avoid getting too deep into it
