Omicron Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Reminiscent of LEGO's Collectible Minifigs, CustomMinifigs.com is a joint project between professional customizors Shmails and Armothe. Each fig is special and unique in that Shmails personally designs each one and Armothe arms them with BrickForge weapons and accessories. Wave 1 laid the foundation. Wave 2 brought in the warfare aspect. Wave 3 is moreso an addition to Wave 2, as there is only 4 figs. Presentation Each minifig is packaged in a medium-sized, ziploc baggie with a card insert. The front of the card insert features the CM.com logo and is designed to have the minifig displayed in the middle. The back of the card insert is a brief rundown of the advisory and also explains that each fig is made from LEGO with custom additions by Shmails and Armothe. So in other words: 100% high quality. And now onto the minifigs..... SWAT Officer Click thumb to enlarge The SWAT Officer is very similar to the Riot Cop from Wave 2. When your city needs heavy back up when dealing with terrorists or evil villians, this is the guy to call in. Features: - Custom Torso Decal - Custom Arm Decals - Black Military Helmet w/ screenprinted "SWAT" - Black Military Shield w/ screenprinted "SWAT" - Black Nightstick - Black Gunbelt - Dark Bluish-Gray Military Rifle (not picture) Price: $20.00 USD Ms. Kitty Click thumb to enlarge In a post apoc world, she is one of the few babes around. While she is definately the cats meow, this cat is not the kind that comes scurrying towards you. When it comes to zombies or some creepy guy hitting on her, she will use her deadly arsenal to protect herself. Features: - Custom Torso Decals (waterslide) - Custom Arm Decals - Dark Bluish-Gray Sickle - Dark Bluish-Gray Cleaver - Dark Bluish-Gray Backpack - Black Crowbar - Dark Bluish-Gray Canteen Price: $18.00 USD Sarge - WW2 Hero Click thumb to enlarge This guy loves a battle. He doesn't care for what the war is for, as long as he gets his hands on a gun and gets his hands dirty. But he has a soft side. He named his gun Charlene. Features: - Custom Torso Decals - Custom Arm Decals - Olive Soldier Helmet w/ screenprinted sergeant emblem - Olive Backpack w/screenprinted "US" - Olive Canteen - Olive Shovel - Olive Grease Gun Price: $20.00 Eranion - Centaur Click thumb to enlarge A mighty warrior from the land of Narnia Middle Earth Oz mythical enchantments and castles and stuff. This four legged guy is the man you want on your side as you traverse the land to restore the 4 crystals of light or save some princess from a pig demon. First CM fig to come in flesh tone. Features: - Custom Torso Decals - Custom Arms Decals - Tan Centaur Body w/ screenprinted armor - Black Ponytail - Bronze Hero Sword - Black Recurve Bow Price: $20.00 USD Overall These figs are one of a kind, and definately not something to pass up on. They each can make great additions to your collection display on your shelf at home or on the desk at the office. While they utilize waterslide decals, they can still be used for MOCs and vignettes as long as you don't throw them around, as they are meant for display and not rough play. More awesome figs will be made in the future, so keep an eye out for them! So why are you still reading this? Go to CustomMinifigs.com! "Life is short.....customize it!" -Omi Quote
WhiteFang Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 I am very tempted to get the Centuar figure. Thanks for sharing with us. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Another neat review Omi, thanks for sharing! The Centaur does indeed look great, especially with the other custom accessories included (weapons and hairpiece). If ever I'd grab one of these, the Centaur is definitely on the top of my list. Ms. Kitty's torso is very nicely done too, and can be quite useful for civilian lady minifigs. Quote
MattTheLegoman Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Has anyone made any good Narnian mocs with these customs. I would also like to see more minifig/mythological hybridisation bricks (Minotaur perhaps?). Quote
