JaseTJ Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Torso is from the Jungle Cutter set (Indiana Jones KotCS). I dunno what head he used, but it looks like the one I used for my comic Wasp--Megan Fox's April ONeal, maybe? Quote
Kendo Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Hey guys , I'm making a huge batman ( new 52 themed) MOC and I want to include as many characters as I can . I have great minifigs ( official and custom ) for everyone except Catwoman . I'm not a fan of the official TLG figure and I couldn't find any good custom ones either . So I decided to do some research and find a way to make one myself ( the new 52 version ). Yesterday I had this idea for her ,but I don't have the parts , so I post it here in hope one of you guys do , so that you can post a picture of her . Ver.1 : prof. Hooch ( HP ) head and official catwoman helmet/ cowl Ver.2 : prof. Hooch ( HP ) head and the new batman cowl , with the front area beneath the "eyebrows" cut off . I think this one will look significantly better , but it requires modding and obviously isn't purist . As for the body , I think I'll use a design similar to TLG's ,but without any purple on it , and on an AREALIGHT curved torso , but the head/helmet is what's actually troubling me , and has me asking for your help . If anyone has the parts to make these and can post them ( with any random torso and legs , it makes no difference ) I'll forever be in their debt , as it's next to impossible to order them online where I live in Edited October 1, 2015 by The Caped Crusader Quote

Hooch's goggles aren't going to fill up the eyeholes of the cat mask well enough, either. Quote

Hooch's goggles aren't going to fill up the eyeholes of the cat mask well enough, either. Well , about the Catwoman mask , the more I think about it the more I loose faith in it , but it goes the other way around for the new Batman cowl . I think it will look spot-on if cut correctly ! Do you have links to pictures of the cut cowls you speak of ? I'm pretty bad at cutting myself so I need to see if it will work for me and then have a friend cut it . Quote

The best I can think of off the top of my head is this one here, although it's a Catwoman cowl and not a Batman one. (No offense to the guy who made it. I love his Poison Ivy, but cut cowls never work all that well.) Quote
Kendo Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Well , If I could cut a Batman cowl like that it would be perfect for me ... If you stumble upon a cut off one please do send a link Quote
8BrickMario Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Perhaps you should take the discussion over to another thread, since physically altering pieces is not purist. Quote

Numbuh1Nerd Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 That's not a bad idea for Captain Boomerang! A lot more doable than the usual one these days, although a bit colorless. Quote
Rinzler Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Can someone post a pic with the Juniors Green Goblin with the minifig Hulk's legs please? Quote
N_Cat Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Can someone post a pic with the Juniors Green Goblin with the minifig Hulk's legs please? Oh, wow, that's a really, really brilliant solution to the Racers leg problem! It only makes sense if you already have Hulk, though. If you don't, it's $7 USD just for Hulk legs; $7 + $10 for the racer is more than Goblin is going for these days. I don't have either, so I can't help you. Quote

Or you can buy the Hulk keychain, take off the legs and attach them to a purple hip piece Quote
N_Cat Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Or you can buy the Hulk keychain, take off the legs and attach them to a purple hip piece Wow, that's an even better idea that I had never considered! You're blowing my mind here! At prices right now, it would still be cheaper overall to bite the bullet and get the Goblin on Bricklink or eBay, but that'll be a perfect solution for many, many people! Quote

The keychain is £2.99 and the upcoming Micro Goblin set is £10. That rounds to £13, sounds pretty cheap to me And by the way, you're welcome Quote
N_Cat Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 The keychain is £2.99 and the upcoming Micro Goblin set is £10. That rounds to £13, sounds pretty cheap to me It's only £7.34 for Goblin on Bricklink, but obviously that can change. I hope you can get yours to work! On another note, I have a couple partial ideas: Has anyone tried Barry's head for a Falcon figure? I'm trying to decide whether it's worth the cost. And could someone put Chase McCain style Dark Tan hair onto Mini Head 1709 (the Male Resistance fighter, or Naboo fighter pilot, or Resistance X-Wing pilot)? I'm trying to make a Steve Rogers figure, but I dislike the orange color Lego gave him for his hair and eyebrows. Quote

He attended some Comic Con and took pictures with the Captain America figure you described: https://www.flickr.c...05/21739294761/ https://www.flickr.c...05/21718361412/ It looks really good imo.

Oh my goodness. That looks so perfect! I need to get that head now. Thank you so, so much! How on earth did you find these?! Quote

No problem at all man. It does look really good indeed, I may need to get that head as well. How I found the pictures is actually pure serendipity. I was on Flickr a few days ago when I saw it, and when you posed your question I just remembered it. Right place at the right time I guess. Edited October 8, 2015 by Legocity2713 Quote

Skier1215 Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 And for those Agents of Shield fanatics, Mockingbird, aka Bobbi Morse. Personally she needs Madame Hooch's goggles but otherwise she's peachy. Quote
