    Good 1:18th scale truck?

    I need a good, not overly muscled truck in our scale. I'm aware of the Tree House Kids vehicles, but they stand too high and are exaggerated. I know of Shleich, but there's are not 1:18th. I just need a simple, run of the mill looking truck and that doesn't cost an arm and a leg...any...

    Tutorials on joining Joe and Jones parts?

    I could have sworn I had seen a tutorial on how to join 25th/RoC legs with Indiana Jones upper bodies or similar. Anyone know if this exists?

    Custom Microman Predator

    Borderline LBC here, glued on some shoulder armor from a Kubrick Kane in spacesuit figure, shortened the wrist blades, gave him a "skirt" from a GI Joe Montezuma skeleton, greaves are C3PO legs I hollowed out with a dremel, cut off the front of the helmet and added the front from a GI Joe...

    Need your opinion on a Predator custom

    I've got one inn the works but my problem is it doesn't have a helmet, it's face is exposed. It seems to me they spend more time fighting WITH their helmets on as opposed to off. The head I have is from an old castor site that is no longer around, so getting an extra isn't going to happen...

    Cowboy boot source?

    Anyone know of a figure wearing fully exposed cowboy boots? By "fully exposed" I mean the pants leg is either rolled up or tucked into the top, I need to be able to see the whole boot on both feet. And I'd rather they be small enough to pass for a female...too boot.:p I remember a line...

    One leg shorter than the other?

    Does anyone else have this problem with some figures having one leg that seems shorter than the other, causing them to stand lop sided? I know the T-bar in some can be wonky, but that's not the problem. When I straighten the legs out and push them towards one another, one is visibly shorter...

    Knock-off LEGO

    Has anyone purchased these from Dollar General or elsewhere? I've been wanting to build a OD Helicopter for my "The Thing" LEGO customs, but I don't want the hassle of trying to figure out which bricks I need and trying to order them on-line and hoping I get everything I ordered, AND in the...

    Clear label paper...possible decal source?

    I was at staples the other day and came across clear label paper, several sizes, for laser and ink jet printers. Has anyone thought of using this as decal material? I don't know how adhesive it would be on curved areas like sleeves and such, and I'm wondering if it would be too thick in...

    Robotcyborgcreature

    I'm not sure what to call this one, it's a mix. I was inspired by a picture someone posted on some forum and that one Quinteson from the Transformers movie. You know, the one with the tentacle arms and alien looking head? I painted him with red and white figuring he might be a medic of some...

    Suggestions for angel wings?

    I know Angel Forge has a set, but I'm not sure the hinges are best for me. Something static would be fine if it's easy to find. I've looked at the limited selection of Schleich/Papo stuff but nothing useable.

    Quick Mummy Halloween diorama

    I put this together as a Halloween decoration in my office. This is part of a much bigger display I had in mind awhile back. It was going to have a small army of thieves, a few camels, a horse, some other Eqyptian ruins, a small treasue trove, an Indiana Jones type archeologist and a female...

    X-ray woman

    Well, I made a version of the Fisher Price Adventure People X-ray man, so I HAD to make an X-ray woman to go with him. Bought the figure a few weeks ago off eBay, an MU Fantastic Four Invisible Girl clear variant. Dyed her an emerald-green using RIT dye, sculpted her hair out of Milliput and...
