MattZitron Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Hey guys I'm a new member and I'm a fan of marvel comics and legos. I repose minifigure parts to make my own figures. I also can't wait for the marvel summer sets. I'm planing on getting two of the antman set and using the combo of parts of antman suits to makethe three different antmans from the comics, also using the extra yellowjacket body to make a wasp figure. Then ill buy two of the carnage sets and use the extra spiderman to make a superior spiderman figure, then use the extra shield agent body to either make a classic nick fury or dum dum dugan Welcome! Sounds like a lot of cool figures! With your superior Spider-Man I'd maybe use different colour spider arms. His were red in the comic, and the nearest PURIST colour is Dark Brown. And if you don't want to upset the AFOLS (Adult Fans of Lego) don't say LEGOS! The plural is just Lego. :P Here's a few of my latest. Ultimate Thor. Ages of Thunder Thor Wiccan from the Young Avengers (props to the first person who did it here who I've based it off) And last but by no means least, Falcon Captain America. I'm really really happy with this one. As ever more on my Flickr. And in case you didn't see it I modded the official Avengers tower to be a bigger display piece.

Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks for that advice MattZitron here soon I will post some pictures of some of my custom figures. Edited March 13, 2015 by Marvel_Geek Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 That batch is a sight for Thor eyes I'm glad somebody with a Falcon minifig made Sam Wilson's Captain America! I love his costume in the comics. That's a pretty good Wiccan, too! I've been wanting to make some Young Avengers, but most of them are really hard to get quite right (Iron Lad especially). Quote
Im a brickmaster. Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Nice ultimate Thor dude! Capcon looks pretty good too Quote
MattZitron Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Thanks for that advice MattZitron here soon I will post some pictures of some of my custom figures. Looking forward to it. The guys here are all super nice and supportive. Proud to be part of the group That batch is a sight for Thor eyes I'm glad somebody with a Falcon minifig made Sam Wilson's Captain America! I love his costume in the comics. That's a pretty good Wiccan, too! I've been wanting to make some Young Avengers, but most of them are really hard to get quite right (Iron Lad especially). PUN KING! That makes it all worthwhile. I'm so happy with the Cap Falcon. Legs tie it together. I reckon Visiton might be a good fit for Iron Lad. I'm going to do a Hulkling one day, using minifig Hulk's head. Nice ultimate Thor dude! Capcon looks pretty good too Thanks dude. I was actually doing Thunderstrike, but he ended up as Ultimate Thor. Thunderstrike will come. ONE DAY. Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Do you guys want me to make list later of all my custom figures, then you can choose which ones you would like to see and I'll post the pictures? Quote
MattZitron Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Do you guys want me to make list later of all my custom figures, then you can choose which ones you would like to see and I'll post the pictures? As long as they're purist figures just post them all! That's the only rule here. Be sure to name each one. Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) The only figure that isn't complete purist is my odin which has a head and hair piece that were off of a non-purist figure.(what I mean by that is the orignal figure was bought off amazon and is not an official lego figure) Edited March 13, 2015 by Marvel_Geek Quote

Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 I probably won't have them up until 10 o'clock your time. Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Is anyone else going to change any of the summer figures. Edited March 13, 2015 by Marvel_Geek Quote
ReZourceman Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Yeah I've got plans for Spider-Gwen at least! Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 That sounds cool ReZoureman, I just need a good body and legs and ill have a normal gwen. I won't be able to post any pictures yet but I will here soon. Quote
MattZitron Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Yeah I've got plans for Spider-Gwen at least! Purist? Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Yeah I've got plans for Spider-Gwen at least! Woah, that sounds intriguing, to say the least! Quote
Krikkit Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Any ideas on how to pull some of these off? Quote
MattZitron Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Purist wise? I've seen people use a Catwoman head for Spider-Woman/Black Widow (as she's known in the Ultimate Universe.) Ben Reilly maybe go for darker blues on the arms and legs? As for Kaine/Scarlet Spider. Can't think of a Purist way as yet. just a two tone red with black toso with a Spider-man head. Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 For thr middle spidy I would for the arms use a dark blue like from quicksilver, and the same color for the legs, as for tje otjers I don't know but I have seen how to make an original scarlet spider. Quote
Internets Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 This is one I have been thinking on for a while, Powergirl: If only Lego had a wider variety of flesh legs. Also, the torso is not perfect but it is close enough for me. I like all of my superheroes for fit in with the official ones so I try and make it work with the flesh colored pieces available. I'd be tempted to just use a white spaceman torso. Quote
K-Nut Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 As for Kaine/Scarlet Spider. Can't think of a Purist way as yet. just a two tone red with black toso with a Spider-man head. I plan on using a Miles Morales head for Kaine once I get it. Maybe this torso would work? Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Oh man, I had an idea for Ultimate Black Widow a couple months ago! Maybe this hair (medium dark flesh would be better), Venom's torso backwards (I was looking at this outfit), red arms, and maybe a red short cape cut into a jacket if that's not too non-purist for you. Catwoman's head and plain black legs, of course. Quote
Marvel_Geek Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I hope u don't mind Krikkit but I think I'm going to use that. Quote
Krikkit Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Not at all. I was trying to see what I could do with him. Big Figs are pretty limited in customisation. Quote
