$200 is roughly regular price in eBay....

His bio says he's in Toronto. $200 CAD is like $150 USD.

$200 Canadian.
With the exchange rate, shipping and import fees, I would come out to a lot more than that if I purchased it on eBay. So, it’s a good deal for me!
Now, if only I could find the DOFP figure for that price hahaha

All KO parts for Logan except the original Thor body. He’s a bit too tall but works for now.

Which KO clothing set is that? I've been making Civilian Marvel figures and need a Wolverine.

Made a Cyclops using KO of Hot Toys Leon's clothes and made an Ice-Man using extra clothes I had. Going to get another long sleeve shirt for Ice-Man and put the hoodie over it unbuttoned. Give it a slight bit more bulk.

Ahh gotcha!

I think I may want a new head for Wolverine! I love the sculpt of the one from DOFP or The Wolverine. Where are some good places to look? I’ve looked on EBay but there are just so many listings and I’m afraid that it isn’t going to look like the photos listed at all.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

It was this one here, Ted. Very good quality although I thought the body was a bit too bulky so I replaced with an old HT Thor body.

Thanks buddy.

So here is my Polaris "Magnetic Girl" Review...and kinda custom.

 

[MattSimasArt]

I purchased the old Sideshow Xenia Onatopp figure and I’m going to use it for a Jean Grey kitbash. Not the greatest paint application but the sculpt is a good likeness.
Gonna buy a new body for it as well as a suit.

I will want to change her hair colour, though.
What are the best paints to use?

Just thought I'd post what I did with that hideous Core Play Phoenix. I tried to leave it as was, but it didn't fit in with everything else. First I tried just switching out the head. Then I went to a Jiaou Doll body which of course meant I couldn't use the hands or boots (the ones with the 16 inch heels!). Added some nice flames for effect.

Nicely done. I'd like a Polaris with green hair too. Did you just apply a green wig?

EDIT: Ah I didn't spot that there was a video. Nicely done.

 

[Stryker2011]

There’s a green-haired version of this character coming out (I’ve seen the PO anyway).

I want to do original trilogy custom versions of classic X-men e.g. Polaris, Havok, Banshee, Dazzler, Gambit, and Psylocke in variant black leather uniforms so technically all I need is the head with green hair, although if she had black boots with metal studs, that would work.

[yodasan]

Anyone hear an update on the Steel 2.0 figure?

 

[The Rogster]

Hey guys, I want to put together a final act Logan from the movie.
Could I get some help and hearing some suggestions as far as a formula for this figure. Thank y’all

1/6 Scale JXTOYS JX-029 Avril Head Sculpt

I wonder if Avril Lavigne would make a passable Dazzler.

 

[Pauln6a]

Bought a second Storm for a uniform for Rogue. She doesn't look too bad for a kitbash, I think I need to tweak the likeness on Iceman though. There is something not quite right there.

Don’t see why not. Have you seen these Disco-era jumpsuits?
