Good news, bad news

Hello,

As always, my apologies for no posts recently. In my defence I did try to post last Friday but received a message from Google saying the blogs were being updated.

Anyway, I have a lot of good news and a little bit of bad news.

First a bit of good news: The Classic Marvel Figurine Collection has been extended to 200 issues, so another 20 figures are coming your way. Thanks to everyone who collects the magazine, these extensions wouldn't happen without you.

And now for the bad news: Unfortunately, I'm going to have to pass on the blog duties to my colleagues John and Dan. At the moment I'm just too busy with some new developments and overseeing some of the other comic related products. I'm not going to completely abandon the blog and will attempt to make posts whenever I can, but more regular updates will come from the other members on our team. Hopefully this means we'll be able to put out more updates, but please understand that both John and Dan are also extremely busy.

Right, that aside, here's a couple of pics.

First up Magik. We decided to go for her New Mutants costume with the soul sword and soul armour. The demon girl look she had recently just didn't sit right with us.



Next I have paint images of Avalanche.



And finally I have some images that a few people have waited along time to see. Please understand that I can not guarantee these will be a double pack, but if not, they will be in 181-200. I give you Northstar and Aurora sculpts. I really hope you guys like what we've gone for. The blocks under their feet will eventually be small clear pegs to give the illusion they are flying/floating.



Have a great weekend, everyone.

Though I picked both HAMMERHEAD & TOMBSTONE because both will make great figures if it is one or the other I prefer HAMMERHEAD because he has been around longer & like I said he will look great in his blue pinstriped suit holding his tommy-gun.
I picked the TRAPSTER to finish off the original Frightful Four.
I picked SHAMAN & MARRINA to finish off the original Alpha Flight.
I picked WHIRLWIND & MELTER as early members of the Masters of Evil.
The COBRA & MR. HYDE are great bad guys that have menaced many of the heroes of Marvel either as a team or by themselves or with other bad guy teams like The Serpent Squad or The Masters of Evil.
The OWL certainly deserves a spot by now as a longtime foe of DD & Spidey. I see his name mentioned a lot on here.
And again I speak up for STILT-MAN & STEGRON THE DINOSAUR MAN. Both would look great as figures.
All the ones I picked in my twenty are both classic characters that will look great as figures & either finish up teams or add to the classic teams or add to various heroes bad guy list.
I must say THE HOOD who is a newer character looks just like a regular dressed anybody wearing a hood with a cape. I don't think much of him as a character but even worse he will make for a sorry looking figure.
