Purist Superhero Figures

Recommended Posts

Hit a bit of a snag with the Daniel West, my order got cancelled on me for the helmet I was gonna use.

So I'm continuing my Asgardian theme.

I give you All New (Female) Thor

If you're reading the book her face/identity being concealed is vitally important. I wanted to have a helmet that worked and did this (didn't feel the Trojan one worked, and the Ultron helmet didn't look right.)

So I adapted the colours a bit to fit together. I'm pretty happy with the outcome.

But what of the man who WAS Thor?

He now goes by the name Odinson. His arm was chopped off by the Dark Elf Malkieth and he's trying to atone and become worthy for his hammer once more.

The two have met in the comics as well:

Enjoy gang.

Not a bad Pied Piper!

Those Thors are wicked! The color-changing on lady Thor was a great way to go, and it's still just as recognizable. Odinson (or Thored, the past-tense of Thor which I just thought of) looks straight out of the books!

Speaking of the new Thor scenario, is there some way to distinguish our new Thor from the old one, in the same vain as Miles Morales being known as Ultimate Spider-Man or Robbie Reyes being All-New Ghost Rider? The only real problem I have with Thor being a woman is that it's really confusing having to specify Thors! (And like, Thor was Thor's name. If Peter Parker loses his job at the Bugle, the replacement kid doesn't change his name to Peter, y'know?)

Numbuh1Nerd - for now she's just THOR and he's just calling himself Odinson. When they reveal who she is, it'll be interesting to see how she's known.

And this just happened which is awesome:

Time for a very rare Marvel fig! I've been craving a good design that I could pull off so much tonight that I let my faithfulness to DC waiver.

This one's a figure I'm not sure's been done yet, too: Quake!

Nice Thor cover, MattZitron, cool that it got retweeted by Jason Aaron!

Does anyone have any Bronze Tiger suggestions?

My suggestion Zilcho, is to use the hemuts from the chima line.

Got a question MattZitron what is the best way to get that skin color shirtless torso?

Depends if you're going comics, or Arrow.

If Arrow, James Rhodes head, flight jacket wolverine claws.

If it's comics, I'd agree with marvel Geek and go Chima,

My suggestion Zilcho, is to use the hemuts from the chima line.

Cheapest way is the Prince of Persia Minifigure. Try here: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=pop007

Cost wise I usually try and get the whole figure. Good legs, head and hair.

Purist Sabretooth. Don´t know if someone else already made a similar combo.

Purist Sabretooth by bricks @ raminator, on Flickr

Superb. I think you got the hair right on this one. Weapon X Style!

You should do the Wolverine to match.

Krikkit like I said on Flickr, PERFECT Archangel.

Good use of the Superman body and Batman wings.

I intend to make a movie Falcon with them.

Nice archangel, just made one like it off that pic. I'm planning on waiting for a MCU falcon, but I'd like to see a purist one MattZitron.

Will have pictures soon.

Any advice on making The Other from avengers and GOTG. Thanos assistant that was killed by Ronan

I got the inspiration from another Flickr addict, But he had a different head and face.

I want to use Green Arrows hair, but need another!
