the SONICave

[SONICobra]

sabretooth arrived yesterday and he is glorious. i think ill probably repaint the face skin tones / lips but aside from that its a very impressive piece

That X-Men gallery is on point. So are those Batman rogues!! They look great. Fun collections.

[SONICobra]

thanks bro! i cant wait to set up the more permanent displays for both, especially the rogues - got some cool surprises in store for that

[Bernie21]

I Love seeing different people set ups, we all collect the same pieces from the same places. Yet everyone's connection is unique and displayed as such. Love it!! Great set up.

thanks man, i really put a lot of thought into the displays. kind of bugs me not having everything in its final spot but spring time ill be putting together the final shelves and get everything set up how i really want

finally bit the bullet on this behemoth... i saw this in person at universal studios almost a year ago and was blown away but was afraid of the real estate it would command. i decided to sell mystique to free up some space and try to make it work, so far so good

i really love this piece, the debris i always wished had been made optional but when you see it in person it gives such a sense of movement i really like all the shrapnel

was on the fence with this piece for a while but finally decided to go with the 90's jim lee look for cyclops. YES its overdone and YES cyclops has had some great looks over the years but i decided i want to assemble a 90's team display eventually so this just fit the bill

i think im probably the only person who prefers the calm portrait to the screaming but to me it just fits the character and display better. only thing i dont really like is the paint on the base, i really dont like the "heat effect" at all and will repaint it at some point to just get rid of it

sculpt - 9/10
pose - 8/10
design - 9/10
paint - 8/10
