NICE! I've been wondering how well the Figure Factory stuff would work on 'tix bases. Looks like the answer is "VERY well!"

Nice work, keep it up! If there are any more Marvel Figure Factory figs that would work nicely as Tix you should try it out. Good luck with future projects.

Hi Whiz Kid & Megazarak, some of the Marvel Factory Figs work pretty well. I recommend Blade along with Doctor Doom and Cyclops (he's a little thin, so he'll go on DD's effect base and call him Teen or Original Cyclops). The others such as Mr. Fantastic, Thing I guess have possibilities, but I gave up on them. They were crazily marked down at K-Mart for like a dollar and Tuesday Morning still has them for $1.99. Even more fun than the Joes because you get to put them together!

Yowza. You and jackpunch have been making me wish I had the time and artistic skill to put together a Yuuzhan Vong set of customs from Utapau Warriors (with thud bug projectiles) and Tion Medons (oh, the amphistaff possibilities). Dayum.

NICE. Looks like I'll need to track down a couple of Figure Factory bits now...

I was wondering when you were going to post these you emailed me the pics ages ago. A very nice use of the waste that was the Punisher

Actually, new pics done at 640 x 480 instead of the larger ones like the Joes. Guess we gotta play more, you can see the dust on him!

Under construction, these guys (came with Blade in Fig Factory) are too low, need to raise their CoG so they'll go over easier. (Hot Glue is actually only semi-permanent). Right now only base shots take them out. Or just make him 20 points, like SM3 Tourney Venom Also, reinforce the GR Blaster and put label on after we test play more to determine points.[/quote] Very creative repurposing of these figurines! And a nifty idea for a themed mini-set.

Coming Soon: Kingdom Hearts Sneak Preview 2 & Gotta Catch 'Em All! Plus more Marvel & Star Wars. In the works: Naruto, Avatar, TMNT, He-Man and a series so exciting I just can't mention it now! Hmmm... Naruto and Avatar...I've seen these both in the stores...and I'm curious if you have the same base He-Man figs I have... Can't wait!

The vampire zombies are a fairly inspired idea. Great way to use up the extra bits. Can't wait to see what they look like when all the work is finished. I can see I have to do quite a bit of work to catch up with you.

Naruto, picked up only two of the four figure packs and think that's as far as I'll go with it. Foot base on some is wide. Trying to make Ninja style attacks is the real challenge here.
Avatar, have just Aang, Sokka, Zuko and Fire Warrior which is all I saw on clearance at Wal-Mart. Think I'll make the entire Aang figure sit on top of a striker mech since he's in that low crouch position and reinforce his staff. Sokka a boomerang attack ala clear rubber band treatment. Fire warrior a Fire blaster like Pyros and still thinking about Zuko.
I bet we have the same He-Man figs, JP, rubbery in the legs, twist only in the waist, pretty small heads and hands, about the same size as the Sigma 6 Joes?
Warlord of Mars has done some of the most stunning Marvel Zombies such as Zombie Colonel America and Zombie Wolverine. I have a hunch he'll do more. Great thing about this is you can take practically any factory Marvel Tix and Zombie-ize it!
