Hey, just realized! That's "my" Beetle!

I shudder to think how many costume versions you have donated to the various publishers you worked for, JB.

I come from the old school, Eric. I got into the Biz for the fun -- there was virtually no money! -- and I have done the best I can to stay in it for the fun.

Another realization -- would not take too much effort to turn Tigershark (about whom I care not a whit) into Steel Serpent!

I thought Monica Rambeau's costume was supposed to be silver, too... 

The only reason I care about Tigershark is because his appearences (as a member of the Masters of Evil) in Avengers!

Mr. Byrne: What are your thoughts on the Avalanche figurine?

In her first appearance, Monica Rambeau's costume has an almost pearlescent appearance, with an undershade of pink, or so it appeared to my eyes...

It might be cool to have shelves of these figures arranged by who designed them. The Avalanche and Beetle could go on a Byrne row. The Captain Marvel on a John Romita row. I, myself, now have a Kirby row that I'm hoping I can exercise some self-restraint in building...

(This would be a good spot for a pic of a Kirby-esque character who strongly resembles Landru... Unfortunately, none comes to mind at the moment...)

Confirmation received from Rog that Captain Marvel's suit is, indeed, supposed to be silver!

I've only just realised that there are NO Guardians of the Galaxy!  Not a one!

Klaw and Triton added today. Very nice job on Triton. Klaw's face seems a bit "off", tho I cannot exactly say why. I will have to ponder this!!

Nope! Maybe it's the nose I guess I tended to see his face as flat.

Also pinker than he's painted.
