Ka-Zar, Cage, and Moonknight are all winners. I'd buy each and every one of those if Hasbro released them.

Thanks for the comments, guys.

I've been wanting to do this next one ever since I saw Dennis' take on the movie version of Scarlet Witch:

Like his, mine uses the 5 poa Scarlet Witch's jacket and head. After that, I think we're pretty different.

And once I had her done, I decided needed to go back at my movie Vision. Ended up re-doing him entirely:

I know he's still not 100% movie accurate, but I feel like this version has enough nods in that direction that he'll work in my MCU Avengers displays.

Here he is with his screen crush:

Here's a quick comparison shot to show Vision 2.0 against his predecessor:

I think the reasons for the upgrade are probably obvious, but he got enhanced articulation and height out of the deal as well as a closer-to-movie aesthetic.

Made this one from an Iron Fist and some JvC bits I had leftover from the era of Joe that dare not speak its name.

Here he is with the growing Flight:

Thanks man.

Yeah, the team's taking shape. I want to redo that Guardian so he's not so dark washed and stumpy. And I want to make Vindicator and Snowbird. If I get super ambitious, I'll do Box.

It's a fun little project.

Agreed, nice all around. Fun shot of heroes that I admittedly know little about, there at the end. Still digging your Vision. And I'm struck by how we can each customize a figure using at least the same basic incentives, and still end up with final results so uniquely styled. Your Scarlet Witch looks exactly how she is supposed to look in your verse. Just perfect.

Thanks, guys.

Yeah, I was pretty pleased with the hover effect in that group pic. Haven't even taken down the display yet.

Hi,

Love your Scarlet Witch custom.

What did you use for the skirt?

Hey db - sorry to be so long replying. The skirt is from an MU Doctor Strange. Had to cut it into panels and rearrange it to fit her smaller waist, but it turned out okay.

And speaking of little girls with teeny waists, here's another recent effort to capture the likeness of a Marvel gal:

Magik is truly a spare parts project. She's made from what's left of an old Catwoman custom, a spare Emma Frost head, some bits from a Grim Reaper, upper legs from an Elektra and hands from a DCIH Batman. The shoulder armor used to be a mace. No idea where the sword is from.

She's also the first MU female I've modified the legs on to make her better proportioned (the new buck has some unnaturally long calves out of the package, as I'm sure you know). Here's a pic of her with a WIP custom of her big bro to show how her height is affected:
