New Hasbro Marvel Stunt Squad Figures And Playsets
Chunkylover replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
That's just kids.... But in 20 years, the ones who saved them will sell them on eBay for $100 and Hasbro will revive the line for the nostalgia collectors.... š¤£ -
I mean Marvel in general, not Hasbro in this particular instance. The timing makes sense. I'm speaking more broadly about the gimmicky nature of the multiverse at this point. There were always special events that changed up Spiderman. The multiverse expands that, allowing writers to do anything. How do they top that?

New Hasbro Marvel Stunt Squad Figures And Playsets
Chunkylover replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
If they are making smaller figures with playsets, they need to bring back the Pocket Comics! -
I have the BAF Blob and he is good enough. The side-by-side picture is nice though. The BAF is a little on the "realistic" side, with all the rolls and cottage cheese. The deluxe, actually looks nicer, with the smooth features. I'm sure the articulation is better, too. I hated those days with Hasbro. They've improved a lot over the years.

Villains to Heroes Marrow - Gene Nation with bone swords. White Queen - Generation X headmistress pants suit. Magneto - purple costume with white "M". Banshee - Factor 3 green and yellow with alternate head with mind control headband. Feral New Villain Teams Dark Riders - Gauntlet or Foxbat with Dirt Nap in rat form and some guns. Upstarts - Siena Blaze with... something that looks like her superpower... which is...? Nasty Boys - Gorgeous George with two sets of arms maybe? Stretched out and regular. Eternals - Gideon with sword hidden in briefcase power. Retired WWII Heroes - Stonewall Sorry. These lists were hard and I flaked. Feral was only a Morlock for a few panels, and they are only barely villains. The Dark Riders and Upstarts have a lot of characters that should be made. The rest.... I'm not sure we need a Hairbag or Krule.

GI Joe to Marvel Figures

How did you make Cole and Macon? Did you paint them? Do you have pictures of them? -
Solid.

Ha. Yeah.

Cool. Did you do a little paint work on those? I don't have those skills. I like the easy headswap customs. -
GI Joe to Marvel Figures
Chunkylover replied to Chunkylover's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I have no idea what those words mean. š Pic? -
Oh for sure. What do you like about him? Design, backstory? Honestly, I didn't realize until last year that Magneto killed Senyaka after not too many appearances. I just had the 5" figure and thought he was cool.

Nice set. Unus partners with Blob, and weren't all three early members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants? Destiny is a must for BoE 2. I think I would swap Senyaka with Mellencamp. His simple green lizard design was never compelling to me.

GI Joe to Marvel Figures
Chunkylover replied to Chunkylover's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I think you're right on the Reavers just being muscular guys with guns. It's amazing how close the Gung-Ho actually comes to the comic look for Reese. I think he had a tactical vest. Probably not a giant tattoo. Still, I think he is the best option of the others I've seen (Nuke, Cable). -
Heroes as Villains First Appearance Rogue - multiple hands, maybe a hooded, unhooded, and 90ās alternate heads. Wolverine as Death - masked and unmasked, sword, claws in and out Malice - Iām not sure what accessories to include. Maybe a couple of green magnetic effects? Havok - Age of Apocalypse, or Dark Beast minion Mimic - optic blast and ice blast accessories

So a custom āJoeā? Cool. Did you do anything with the other pieces? -

What GI Joe (or other toy line) figures transfer well to a Marvel Legends display? I used a GI Joe Gung Ho for the extra Reaver head that came with Skullbuster. I know there are other options people have used. It looks like the Lady Jaye figure could work as a Madelyne Pryor in flight suit, with the right head. It also occurs to me that some of the Press Gang could be made from repurposed GI Joe figures. What figures have you found to be easy custom Legends?
