    Crimson Twins

    Not sure if this is "Military Figure" material, but whatever. They don't need much except maybe a briefcase and a carnation on their lapels, so I'll just call them done. Recipe: Body - MU Xavier x2 Hands - DG CC x2 pair Heads - Spytroops Tomax and Xamot SMG - Ret. Crimson Guard...

    F118th Exclusive Figure Sign-Up Sheet

    This is, right now, mainly so we can see what interest there is in this figure. We'll update this first post with names of people who sign up, though once we get around to sales we'll probably do a secondary 'sign up' as we have some ideas and can't implement them all right now. So sound off...

    Dorksidetoys found this:

    So this was apparently posted on Dorksidetoys' Facebook this morning, and posted up on the "other site", but I figured it was worth posting here to see what y'all think. "Found this in the Amazon product catalog several weeks ago, but haven't been able to find out anymore details about it...

    Another Copperhead

    Fear not, Fogger! I already took all of Battle-Kata Ninja Master Roadblock-san's pictures, and a review will be forthcoming. Copperhead from Wave 1 Retaliation Roadrock worked with some mods. Copperhead from Wave 2 Roadrock seems to work even better. The upper and lower arms match better...

    Mantis Mech - WIP

    I have a long way to go on this, for sure. I was looking at my other Deviant custom a while ago, and knew I could do better. Like I mentioned in the haul thread, the Sigma Six Mantis arms fit on the Deviant/Marauder/Hammer body, so that's what I based everything else around. Thus far, we have...

    Cobra Dog Handler

    I like to make my customs as simple as possible, because frankly I don't have time to make them more in depth. I prefer the K.I.S.S. method of customizing, anyway. So I was bored, and taking a break from the FP article I'm working on, and I threw this together. Recipe: Head/Torso: DG...

    Cobra Coils

    (Or: It's about damn time XOC actually finished a custom) One of the few applications of a "specialty" cobra trooper that could be applied real world, and I felt the retaliation firefly bike is workable without the piece of garbage figure it came with. Head: Crimson Horseman Torso/Legs...

    Hey you Star Wars collectors!

    Yeah, you! I'm looking for something specific. There's a rebel pilot(x-wing maybe) figure that has a helmet with a full facemask and a couple hoses coming off of it. So here's the question: What's the name of the figure?

    Avengers Hawkeye

    The X Reviews: SDCC 2012 Maria Hill Exclusive Figure

    As I understand it, the SDCC Exclusive Maria Hill figure is a repaint of Avengers ScarJo Black Widow, with a new head. Since I do not own Black Widow I will have to base all my opinions on this figure. ARTICULATION It seems to be all that we have come to expect from Marvel line figures...
