Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
retrotaco replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
My favorite X-Costumes are all from that Messiah Complex era (when Rogue was in that cool forest green hooded-suit thing) and I doubt many of those looks would be created before 'Classic' or 90's Era costumes lol -

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
retrotaco replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
Oh really? That does help, I just wanted the arms, no hands! $10 is way more do-able! Thank you! -
Nightwing's old blue costume changed enough that the recolored New52 look works for me I enjoyed the new Superman hairpiece from BvS on Nightwing (although now I put it on Tim Drake so that Nightwing looks 'taller' with the spikey hair) but yeah if the hair is a sticking point for you, I'd definitely recommend the new Supes hair for him - I think it really works for Grayson.

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
retrotaco replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
I've mostly been collecting DC Superheroes sets, but I just caved and started picking up the Civil War/old Age Of Ultron sets, and I can feel myself tumbling down the Marvel rabbit-hole (especially with those Spider-Man sets coming and that awesome Ghost Rider down the pipe...) and I have to say, even though I don't care about the cars that came with the Black Panther and Crossbones sets, I do think they'd look great in the City theme with some slight mods. Anywho, was just wondering, cause I will eventually pick up a Thor minifig, and I don't think it looks all that great, have Lego ever put out chrome arms like in this pic?; I think the chrome arms would really make the figure standout, but I can't remember any minifigs having chrome like that? -
All your minifigs are awesome! Are these custom wings you created, or did they come from a pre-existing minifig? I'd love those for Hawkman!

All three of my local GameStops have them too, I ended up with four in total - was this like a giveaway or something? How come GameStops STILL have so many of them? lol -

PM'd! -
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that Robin, Beast Boy and Starfire from the Jokerland set, even though they LOOK like their iterations on Teen Titans Go! are still comic appearances. I know Robin and Beast Boy definitely have the looks they had when Tim Drake first joined the Teen Titans in the comics, and Starfire's costume is always kinda changing so I think it's more a 'classic' look for her than specifically the cartoon, y'know? I wouldn't be too hopeful for a TTG! style Cyborg, but Raven's look may be TTG!-ish just because her 'classic' look in comics kinda looks like that. I imagine she'll look like this; All that aside, though - I'd loooooooove a Teen Titans Go! inspired Cyborg, that blue look for his lights/censors is one of my favorites.

Yes, definitely the one from the polybag, I think he was a GameStop giveaway as well? But if you have him I'd definitely be interested in trading! -
Question: What term do we all call ourselves?
retrotaco replied to Paul B Technic's topic in Community
I don't have a title, someone just mentions Lego and I go 'oh yeah, I've got a bunch of Legos' and they either look at me weird or stand fascinated over my collection for an hour lol -

Yeah, I am located in the United States, don't know if that changes/helps anyone at all. -

retrotaco replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
I wouldn't be so sure on Vision - that Quinjet set from Age Of Ultron is still pretty easy to track down, has a decent price-tag, and is the only place so far Vision is available...Lego may be hoping to squeeze a few more people's wallets on that set after Civil War comes out lol -
Flattening a wrinkled old-style cape
retrotaco replied to retrotaco's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Thank you, will definitely give that a try! Actually, now that I think about it, I don't think we have an iron here in the apartment lol - think a hair straightener would do the trick? -
While on the hunt through a few GameStops to try and find a Silver Centurian Iron Man, I ended up also receiving these; I wasn't expecting these at all, and don't really collect much Marvel anyway (plus I already have one of my own) so I was looking for trade for some DC exclusives/polybags for them. I'd be willing to trade for; Superboy Martian Manhunter (New 52) Power Suit Lex Luthor '66 Mr. Freeze (Traded) The Iron Patriots are still in their polybags, but I don't want/need the minifigures I receive to be polybaged, loose is very fine by me. As well, I do have a loose Cosmic Boy and Plastic Man for trade if anyone is interested in those. Thanks for looking!

Hey guys! I bought that minifigure cube from Target with Lightning Lad last year, and it came with some Chima character, who had a navy blue old-style cape, but it was wrinkled as all get out - I put it under some heavy books and forgot about it for months. Well, I found it today, and it still looks like this; Does anyone know of any ways to straighten it out more? With the old style capes no longer being used, I don't want to let any go to waste. I considered ironing it, but was worried that would burn/ruin it. Thanks guys!

Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion
retrotaco replied to Quicksilver's topic in LEGO Licensed
Yeah, that's a bummer. It's a shame they haven't used The Flash's helmet yet to make that minifig really pop. Thor and the helmeted Cap are the only real letdowns for me in the MCU line. -

retrotaco replied to c0rnedfr0g's topic in LEGO Licensed
Tell me about it, I have most of the sets, but I missed the Two-Face Chase and Joker's Roller Coaster or whatever that Target exclusive set was, and now the 'classic' Riddler and Two-Face are missing from my collection :/ -
Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

This is just the same Cap from the Civil War sets, right? With the 'helmet' rather than hair? -
Figured this would be the best place to ask - Plastic Man was released with Superman's 'spitcurl' hair; and it's bothered me because it looks so much like Superman's hair, and Plastic Man's spitcurl goes 'up' instead of 'down' onto his forehead - are there any hairpieces that mimic this look better? Thanks guys!

Pink Arachnid (Spider Gwen) by Phoenix Customs
retrotaco replied to DarkKnight7's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
This is spot-on - makes me want to order one right now, especially since this looks more detailed than I imagine TLG's Spider-Gwen would look!
