I was having some fun with some new customs I've whipped up.
First? David Tennant's Doctor Who!

I didn't know that they made a TARDIS in that scale. That's awesome.

Heh. When I clicked on this thread, I thought it was going to be a list of all of Mattel's screw-ups, mismanaged bits, and complete 180 degree contradictory Matty Q+A quotes regarding JLU. I am entertained.

Still, it's a sorry state of affairs when we have to resort to Happy Meal toys and the like to round out collections. At this rate, I'll have to carve a Toyman out of a bar of Irish Spring or something.

For you accessory buffs. (We won't name any names, will we Angel.)

I noticed over the weekend something I missed the first time, the Imaginext GL version of the space base has a scale Lantern accessory with a green LED in it that lights up when you push the button on the top of it.

CCC.

Oh yes. OLD school TARDIS playset by Dapol, back when Sylvester McCoy was The Doctor.

Glad you're enjoying AND learning of new treasures out there!

J'onn's bed is an alien cocoon thingie from an X-Files figure set. I thought it would be fun and creepy if the martian slept in a pod. The background is actually an air purifier for my living room

Ha!

Go figure...learn something new everyday. Keep the pics coming - they're great!

Some of these are hit and miss, like all comedy. But this hits are really funny. Nice job. I definitely laughed.

Working on some customs this weekend, today's posts are less about humor and more about anger towards the DCU revamp. The Sinestro Ood will be in a group shot later, once I have more of my planned GLs and Sinestro Corps customs made.

Cute! Who is Mr Big Brain? The Humanite in human form maybe?

GASP! You don't know the Brainwave? The Golden Age Brainwave was the villain that pulled me into All-Star Squadron. His son, Brainwave Jr was a founder of Infinity Inc. And now that Brainwave is dead, I think Brainwave Jr. is now just Brainwave II?

The head is from a Classic Star Trek Talosian figure, body from a classic Star Wars Crimson Guard and the glasses are Wesley's from the Angel action figure line.

Green Lantern: 1 movie. 3,600 intergalactic extras. Here's a little talk around the water cooler on Oa.
