Purist Superhero Figures

Numbuh1Nerd · August 30, 2015

Does anybody know if there're arms with short sleeves the same shade of blue that the Trickster minifig uses? I'd like to see what he'd look like with one of those cape-turned-trench-coat dealie bobs, like he has in the comics.

I don't think there are. I believe there's only four types of dual molded flesh arms: Superboy's, Shaggy's, Jokerland Robin's, and Trickster's.

heres team stark and team america from civil war based on some concept art

What is Hawkeye holding? I don't recognize that purist piece.

Looks like a BrickForge bow to me. Either way, it's in the wrong hand considering Hawkeye is a lefty in the MCU.

That is a WICKED Hawkeye! Sadly, I don't got those legs, but still awesome! Totally using that.

Purist Punisher idea maybe, its difficult finding a good torso for him so:

Trick or treater CMF 14 torso (closest thing to a skull that I could come up with) with Superoy's black short sleeves

Black pants

Loki head

Black Tony Stark hair

2 black alien conquest guns

I think it works. :sweet: :thumbup:

The CMF 4 Punk Rocker has a black skull shirt. It has subtle Latin American Dia de los muertos stylings, though.

Oh yeah. I'm not too big a fan of the colors though, as Punisher should be dark and gritty, otherwise it would be perfect. :wink:

That's fine. Just making sure you remembered the option.

Thanks for the help anyway man. :classic: :thumbup:

For Punisher, I've actually seen people use the Venom torso. :wacko: It works surprisingly well, I must say. It's not terribly accurate, but it captures the look of the character all the same.

Hmm, not too bad either. I'm thinking of maybe going semi-purist and buying some EclipseGrafx and doing this:

It looks good, just kinda expensive. :cry_sad:

Punisher:

Hair: <a href="http://www.bricklink...em.asp?P=92081" rel="nofollow">This</a> in black.

Head: <a href="http://www.bricklink...?P=3626cpb0946" rel="nofollow">This</a>.

Torso: <a href="http://www.bricklink...P=973pb0579c01" rel="nofollow">This</a> backwards with black arms and white hands.

Guns: <a href="http://www.bricklink...em.asp?P=bb192" rel="nofollow">These</a>.

Legs: <a href="http://www.bricklink...0c00pb242&in=M" rel="nofollow">These</a>.

That design can be seen here, on the right: https://www.flickr.c...eposted-public/

This design is my own, and pretty much original to boot. :)

EDIT: Superboy's sleeved arms, as Legocity2713 said, would look great. Either use the flesh hands they come with, or try some black gloves. Also, the CMF Gamer has those grey and black sleeves, those might be useful as well.

EDIT 2: I just realized that the photo I linked to has a non purist trench coat, so just kindly ignore that.

Not bad looking, loving that face a lot. That torso is the best purist imo for now too.

Thanks for taking the time to do all of that, the help is much appreciated. :classic: :thumbup:

Are there any heads that look similar to Scott Lang's head? I'm trying to make custom civilian Robins and I really like that head but it doesn't have enough expressions for me.

autorazr · September 2, 2015

Blactron 1 torso for Big Pun, it's a futuristic skull, it's harder than that punk rocker torso which as legocity said is just too soft. I got series 14 so I'm gonna have like a hundred brickin' updates as soon as I can take pics, I'm puristing right now with them, hoooooo boy.

I have a not purist solution to your issue, at least, I think I do ...

http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3626cpb1033&name=Minifig,%20Head%20Male%20Black%20Eyebrows,%20Cheek%20Lines,%20Open%20Mouth,%20Headset%20Pattern%20(SW%20Imperial%20Gunner)%20-%20Stud%20Recessed&category=%5BMinifig,%20Head%5D#T=S&O={"ii":1} and http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3626cpb1032&name=Minifig,%20Head%20Male%20Black%20Eyebrows,%20Cheek%20Lines,%20Frown,%20Headset%20Pattern%20(SW%20Imperial)%20-%20Stud%20Recessed&category=%5BMinifig,%20Head%5D#T=S&O={"ii":1}, can make up for Scott Lang's expressions, IF you're willing to erase the headsets, that is. Otherwise, sorry, I'm not really sure. Personally, I prefer this http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3626bpb0035#T=S&O={"ii":1} head for my civies clothed Dick Grayson/Tim Drake, but other than that, I'm not sure.

No problem! :D Glad to help out in any way I can! :classic:

Hi guys! I'm trying to get ideas for parts to build an MCU version of Falcon. My ultimate goal is to assemble the Avengers and he and War Machine are all I lack. Im sure I can find most of the parts for Falcon online, but the wings have kinda stymied me. Anyone have any ideas?

Hulk_Smash · September 2, 2015

I used the wings from Space Batman for mine.

Try that... it's what a lot of versions use ...

Ooh, looking forward to what you got. Also, I'm not making a Punisher, but you're absolutely right about Blacktron 1. Almost definitely the best option.

I'm liking the Blacktron 1 idea. Partly skull partly straps for ammo, an all around nice option. Thank you. :thumbup:
