Wolverine (Laura Kinney) in Custom Workstation by TomatoisJP   
Saturday, November 23, 2024
   [Edit]
So I'm toying with the idea of adding a second Wolverine to my X-men shelf, specifically a version of Laura Kinney as Wolverine. However, if I include her, I don't really want anything like Hasbro's current offerings. I'd actually like a version that has a body type closer to that of Wolverine himself, short and stocky, to help contrast her with the other female characters (particularly Jubilee and Shadowcat). The problem is finding a base body that works well enough with the ML line, has the right body type, but isn't too tall or too short... somewhere in the 5.5-5.75 range, ideally.

My thought process is that a wrestling figure of some sort might be ideal, but I have no context for wrestling, much less an idea of what brand/era to look a...[See More]
General Glory in Custom Workstation by Zeo

   [Edit]
Hi has anyone made a figure of obscure DC hero General Glory of Justice League International that they'd be willing to part with? He's the only member in the 1st 50 issues of that book to never have a figure. Or is anyone interested in making one?
Thank you

Help needed to custom Ka-Zar into Tarzan. in Custom Workstation by Keewati   
Sunday, September 8, 2024
   [Edit]
Hello everybody, I'm a total noob to customization, just found this forum while searching for 1/12 Tarzan figure, because well, there are none on the market, found many great ones in here which inspired me to give it a shot. So I ordered a ML Ka-Zar, I intend to paint his hair black and darken his eyebrows. Then I plan to try and darken his skin, ideally I'd like to give him about the same skin tone as ML Talokan Namor. I also want to leaopardize his loincloth, to give him that classic look. I might also consider trying ML Sentry's head on him. But right now my main concern is to get rid of Ka-Zar's boots. There aren't that many bare feet figures out there, and I had been thinking of ML Sub-Mariner, but looking at pics,(I don't have that fi...[See More]

Doing something similar myself, first tried using a Namor from the boot swivel down but Namor's calves were too small for Kazar buck, Vulcan is the same body so his lower legs fit (they'll need repainting) and then I used Namor's feet which are loose on the Vulcan pegs as for the loin cloth I plan to base coat it in tan/khaki and paint random brown spots, the head I'm alternating between repainting the Kazar head or pulling off the hairpiece and using yarn to make "doll hair" it's easy, you use a fine tooth comb or cat grooming comb to detangle the yarn, then use a flattening iron, it looks like real hair and falls naturally unlike the doll hair they sell at the craft store. You can see my first Tarzan custom using this method here https://www.instagram.com/p/CQpU0d0MQeg ... rce=ig_web ...
Hero Toys Illidan advice in Custom Workstation by Wes68   
Saturday, June 8, 2024
   [Edit]
I recently received the Hero Toys totally not Illidan Demon Killer figure a few days ago.

The figure comes with two very large articulated wings. Unfortunately the one wing looks like they used a joint from a hand instead of like the other which has an octagonal head.

I contacted the seller about a replacement and they contacted Hero Toys who is sending a replacement joint which should be 4-6 weeks.

I dont know if it is possible to share an image here. But I was wondering if anyone had a similar situation before with hero toys or otherwise. I don't even know what kind of joint it is yet other than the fact it is a ratcheted joint. I am hesitant to just try and pull on the old one not wanting to break anything. Id probably want to hea...[See More]
I'm stuck with customs that the client can't buy. in Custom Workstation by Noah James   
Tuesday, April 2, 2024
   [Edit]
So I was asked to make a full team of action figures, and after finishing one with three more in varying stages of completion, the client went ahead and got himself arrested where it looks like he'll be for the foreseeable future. I'd like to finish the project, but I'm not much of a collector myself. I've never tried to sell anything that hadn't been requested before, and don't really know where/how to go about it. Is eBay the best course? Is there another forum I should look into? I'm not the most internet savvy person in the world, so any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!...[See More]

Could you please post images of a couple of the figures, so we might get a better idea of what the team is and what style of figures they are?

ebay is probably a good way to do it, I've also seen people find success by advertising their figures on social media accounts. I hope you find someone you can sell it to!
