Moloch

I never thought I’d see the day when I not only had a set of Watchmen figures on my shelf, I’d have two (comic and movie). But they needed a villain. Sadly, there isn’t much in the way of costumed villains in the story. The only one is Moloch, and (read more...)

Harley Quinn (Assault on Arkham)

As a card-carrying DC fan, I am required to watch all of the direct-to-disc animated movies produced. Sadly, most of them are junk. (There are only a handful I’ve enjoyed, most I tolerate, and some are downright bad.) One of the surprising gems for me was “Assault on Arkham.” Given (read more...)

Harley Quinn

Of the many Harley Quinn figures I’ve made and/or own, I did not have a “generic” Harley in the 6”-7” scale. (Well, there’s the Mattel version, but it’s pretty lousy.) So I set out to make one. I was struck by how near perfect the DC Direct Livewire might work (read more...)

Joker (Arkham City Game)

Some time ago, an amazing Arkham City Joker head sculpt appeared on Facebook. What was really noteworthy was that this Joker was not smiling. He looked great! The sculpt was by Spawnsauce, and he was offering copies of the noggin. I took him up on the offer, and soon I (read more...)

Harleen Quinzel (Arkham Asylum Doctor)

I have really enjoyed all the “Arkham” games so far, including Arkham Origins. (It may be the weakest, but it’s still better than most games.) And being the Harley fan that I am, I was happy to see her in it, even if her placement was a bit shoehorned. While (read more...)

Harley Quinn (Revenge)

A funny thing happened on the way to making this custom. Less than 24 hours after I put the finishing touches on this one, DC Collectibles announced their own version, due in stores later this year. Sigh. I can’t win for losing. Nonetheless, my version still has merit. I built (read more...)

Batman (DKR Unmasked)

Another fine custom made possible by Hunter Knight Customs! This is Hunter’s rendition of Bruce Wayne’s noggin as it appears in the animated Dark Knight Returns. Given Hunter’s mastery of the Masters of the Universe Classics body types, and the fact this DKR Batman was based on those parts, he (read more...)

Harley Quinn 1966

After waiting all my life, I finally have some halfway decent 1966 Batman toys on the shelf. But as I set them up for the first time, something seemed to be missing. Harley, of course! But our dear kookey gal didn’t exist back then. So I asked myself what she (read more...)

Talia al Ghul (Hush)

It seems I’m in the minority when it comes to admitting I actually enjoyed “Hush.” Despite this social stigma, I still want more “Hush” figures, so the customizing continues. This latest effort is the lovely and deadly Talia, seen here sporting a charming ensemble, perfect for wearing to an abduction (read more...)

Talia al Ghul (First Appearance)

While researching the details of Classic Ra’s al Ghul, I viewed both Ra’s and Talia’s first appearances with fresh eyes. I was struck by how similar Talia’s dress from her first appearance was to that of the Mary Jane figure from the Spider-Man line. Except for Mary Jane’s sculpted clasp, (read more...)
