ML Part Swaps

Might be McF DC Raven.

I've been browsing older BAF torsos and a lot of times the torso peg that connects to the legs/thighs have right peg looking different size than left peg. Why was that?

I always assumed it was a simple way to make sure people connected the right pieces.

I find that the kneepad to the toy biz 1998 X-man from the Most Wanted wave works as a good jewel. It requires repainting of course.

That would require destroying a pretty good figure though. That was one of my faves growing up. I have such fond memories of playing with it.

That's true, but on the other hand, it'd be cheaper to buy one of those than to get a mcfarlane raven figure. And then you'd also have extra flame accessories.

I'm not a customizer by any means, so I'm just waiting for someone to try something like this:

That works pretty well

[Trunks3540]

The fact the skin tones look like they match is astounding. We can't get a Wolverine with matching skin tones but 2 unrelated characters are so close, that's crazy.

I'm not overly familiar with either character, so can I ask why that fixes them? Hair colour? Face sculpt?

[Mr potatohead]

My guess is he wanted a prettier face on MH since she's usually portrayed as quite hot in the comics, whereas Vertigo's look varies from hot to not very attractive.

Madame Hydra's hairstyle is so unique that it's hard not to see that as MH and Vertigo wearing each other's costumes.

Did my Avalanche!




I used The Hood's head, as the only Sandman head I could find cost more than I spent on Avalanche as a whole, so...

After the insanely stressful & difficult job of pulling it off the stock face, I test fit before doing any trimming, and then did a little at a time, testing the whole way, until the eyes/eyebrows/nose were where I wanted them. It's a smaller head, but I still like it, and I didn't glue it down, so I can revert it back or put a different face in there should I choose. I DID have to make Hood's hole deeper, as it fit the ball perfectly, but sat REALLY high, haha.

I wanted to ask everyone a question though...who has this U.S. Agent head, and is it cast out of flesh-colored plastic with the mask painted on, or mask-colored plastic with the flesh painted on?



Because I kinda like that face better, but I obviously don't want to see a black mask peeking out from under the metal helmet, lol.

[sepster]

Almost positive the head is cast in black with the flesh painted.

i agree, id probably swap the hair too

[CTVampSlayer]

Same thing everyone else is doing, slightly more paint.
