Blob doesn't work for me.  It would make a good base for Pink Pearl though.  I really like the puppet master.

That Blob probably weighs more than I do! The two DC figurines that I have (so far) are really hefty, and they're only the size of the Spider-Man in that pic!

I miss THIS Blob.

(Note: A popular bit of comicbook mythology there -- and something Kirby did a lot. What a gun fires is the ENTIRE BULLET, not just the lead slug! Discovering that was not the case, when I was a kid, was something of a major revelation!)

Some more custom work. Man, the camera is just brutal on these things.

Wild Child. The base figure was a re-posed Impossible Man plus a sculpted right hand (which was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be).

And Marrina. The base figure was Crystal. Even as diminutive as that sculpt was, I still had to shave down about half of her bust, it was just gigantic compared to the rest of the body. I tried to give her very subtle shading, which didn't translate in my pictures at all.

Ant-Man looks way better than the preview pics

Thanks, Brad!

Here's today's blog sneak. Also mentioned is the contest starting in a week or two to pick the last three figures in the extension. Stay tuned!

I also appreciated the discussion on the various size differences, makes lots of sense.
