Oh cool, looks great.
The Saruman Premium Format figure is one of Sideshow's best figures to date as the paint job on the flesh is not plane like a lot of sideshow pieces but very colorful and this EX feature just makes it look even more amazing. Congrats man
Yea, the Saruman and Gandalf PF's are pretty awesome to be fair...too awesome to not have as I was desperate to stay away from the LOTR line Looking back in hindsight, I paid a little more than I would've liked for the Gandalf PF Exclusive...especially as i'll be most likely displaying him with the regular head 
but in the grand scheme of things, I'm really stoked to have both of them in the collection looking forward to your pics then 
other than the Gollum PF, which I previously owned many a blue moon ago, I haven't really seen any of the other pieces from the LOTR line but I can safely say that Saruman will take some beating! Gandalf is back in his box already! Luckily, Saruman is still on display as I'm using the polysterene inserts from his box to hold up my Doom LSF!!! 
Just awesome update my friend
Yea, really happy with the way the Cap shield turned out So much credit must go to James Tce who was the guy that did this amazing job for me Yes seen this saruman , really nice piece. Love how they did the fabric on this. shield looks awesome too
appreciate your feedback buddy Congrats on Saruman PF Andy! He looks great, especially by Sideshow's standards these days. Unfortunately, Sideshow lost me on the LOTR line with all of their long delays and not doing the main characters in PF form. I am a completist.
Hey Mikey, good to hear from you bro Yea, I wasn't planning on getting involved with the LOTR license and infact I sold my Gollum PF back in the day just to stop myself from getting further involved but when I saw the two wizards (Gandalf and Saruman) displayed alongside each other, I could no longer resist and managed to bag them both within of week of each other and now that I have them inhand I have to say that I'm so glad I have them 
Love the progress made by Wolverine, first off. Love the growl facial, and it certainly comes off with a badass vibe. I certainly love the look, and no doubt it will look (or does look [present tense]
)! Another thing I absolutely love is the paint work. Especially on the mouth region. Haven't see a great paint work on a human face in a while, especially one that isn't a female (we know the award goes to Black Widow GG! )Congrats on getting this epic XM piece. Really looks great, especially loving the Pepper Potts HS!
DM really did a ****ing sick job on the cape, I saved this photo to my laptop, I love this cape!
Love, Love, ****ING LOVE the base! Nice color scheme, absolutely stunning, and the HS turned out really well. HOw is the brightness? I was thinking about eventually getting mine done, or making a new custom HS. Really love Supes!RobertoBagg10 said:
I bet this was a ***** to put together.
A HUGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEE difference! I'd honestly go with the Mark VII from XM, I really love that base. But this is fantastic, hopefully XM makes a Rescue PF.
Honestly, Iron Man is the only great looking one!
I know blasphemy! 
Not a huge Keaton fan (probably cause I never really saw them in comparison to Nolan) but this does look good. I really like that last pic. The LEDs look fantastic! Now, I love Pfieffer so I can get behind that.
I need this!
I love me the films and books, but I can't really talk about LoTR without sounding dumb.
I told you this thread would ruin my colon.
thud:*sigh*
I am waiting.Dr Doom Legendary Scale Figure....pics coming soon....
Like I said before, I can't say anything about LoTR, except that they look great.
btw, just seen your Dr Doom LSF pics on Facebook and OMG!!! Hands down the best thing I have ever seen that statue is phenomenal mate and you must be on cloud 9! Lucky ******* and I hate you
It has certainly been a while (once again) but it's kind of like holding off a favorite shown to avoid breaks and for the new season to begin.
It was the best I could do.
Alright Andy, let me say you have a ton of sweet goodies in the last few months, and it was a blast to see and comment on them brother!
Now to go to work!
Love the progress made by Wolverine, first off. Love the growl facial, and it certainly comes off with a badass vibe. I certainly love the look, and no doubt it will look (or does look [present tense]
As for Iron Man, holy moly guacamole. That is one sexy ass Battle Damage suit. I love the lighting and love the whole dio! Nice snag on this one brother!
Congrats on getting this epic XM piece. Really looks great, especially loving the Pepper Potts HS!
AS it's way out of my budget, I'll have to stick with SS.
Getting any other XM pieces? A lot of great ones!

It looks huge, like you mentioned, I am a bit of a skeptic of Prime 1, and while they are pricey for me to go for anyways, I still have yet to see one of their pieces in hand. The turtles look cool, just need that IH view. Optimus also looks great, but 2K is definitely out of my budget. Glad to see this came out to your liking!
A HUGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEE difference! I'd honestly go with the Mark VII from XM, I really love that base. But this is fantastic, hopefully XM makes a Rescue PF.
Are you getting any of the SS IM pieces? I was thinking about going for the PF available ones, but I'd imagine the Mark I will be rather difficult to hunt. But should be sick none the less!
Honestly, Iron Man is the only great looking one!
Cap and Hulk have some very solid looking paint job - as in thickness- and Thor's cape. Overall the dio just looking really ****ing bad ass! I agree, Widow and Hawkeye should have made an appearance in all honesty. I was thinking about getting some AoU Hot Toys to make some sick Avengers action!
My Wallet! It's burning!
Not a huge Keaton fan (probably cause I never really saw them in comparison to Nolan) but this does look good. I really like that last pic. The LEDs look fantastic! Now, I love Pfieffer so I can get behind that.
Cool grab on this, maybe SS will release Joker soon?
Hopefully Catwoman happens!
Cool piece brother!
I need this!
The wheel makes a huge difference, it's very sexy in a beastly way.
Maybe some pics of this with your symbiote Spidey comi would break the internet?
Now off to eBay to find this!
I love me the films and books, but I can't really talk about LoTR without sounding dumb.
Looks good!
Love the pieces, and certainly would be fantastic had SS made the other wizards. A shame really.
Congrats on getting the conversion and finding that Gandalf.
I especially like the map!
I told you this thread would ruin my colon.
Seriouisly, I cannot wait to see some more Cap mods. They look fantastic, and wonderful to display. Really hope SS would make a mirroring IM to go with as a CW piece!
Now, that being said, I will never come back here as these mods are making me far more jealous than usual.
Just Kidding.
*sigh*
How much?
Really liking the weathered look, like I mentioned in the cap thread, really loved all your shield customs, but I have to say that this tops all of the previous entries. Looks good, can't wait to see it on Cap!
I am waiting.
You've heard me before, and I'll say again Andy, this thread hurts my bank.
Looks cool, wish we had far more masked collectibles.
But this does lessen the blow!
Like I said before, I can't say anything about LoTR, except that they look great.
Saruman looks good, and I'd imagine looks fantastic with Gandalf on the side!
Some seriously cool grabs on this one, brother!
I can't wait to see a few more updates coming. Now to go to the bathroom, that took a while.
Til the next badass update!
how do you expect me to reply to all of that?! I hope you have been saving your money since the last time you visited anyway, as ever, thanks for all your great feedback my friend very kind indeed. I should have some new pics coming soon on the Captain America modifications (including the flag hand) so stay tuned for those The shield is a fantastic mod, one of the best I've ever been involved with and the artist who made it for me (James Tce) deserves a heck of a lot of credit and his work is phenomenal! Again, i'll be posting pics of the shield on the PF very shortly too As fantastic as it looked, I just couldn't get to grips with the piece not having a light up feature and for me personally, an Iron Man collectible needs to have lights! I also have the XM MKVII 1/4 scale statue on pre order also and that doesn't have lights either so I'm now thinking whether to wait until it arrives inhand before selling it just incase 
still not sure yet... but the last PO I made with XM was for their eagerly awaited and highly talked about 1/6 scale X-Men Diorama which is going to look totally amazing! just click on the Instagram icon under my username hope your well 
Congrats.
Amazing addition in Saruman Andy, massive congratz!
great post brother those Doom pics are coming up very soon wait until you see my pics of my new half scale G1 Optimus Prime statue!!!! I think you might end up blocking me! Wow, wow and wow. Looks amazing. very detail and nice new photos. You know your collection amazing
much appreciated as always
I love what you did with cap. Make mine too Andy
I actually love the look of having the Shield on his back...give it a more dynamic and explosive feel to it
