RAC you must be rich man or you work extremely hard because i used to order up to 5-7 customs at a time and usually i paid in parts or figures but if your paying in Money orders or pay pal thats insane if it costs more then $30 a custom and you have like 100 customs made at one time thats what $3,000 dude excuse me but thats a crazy amount of money to spend on Action figures expecially all at once

I've only been getting Marvel customs since February 06' and don't collect anything else other than ML's so it makes sense that I could spend what I spend on them.
It helps that I had money saved for customs from my teenage job years, originally the money was for wrestling customs but when I got out of wrestling, everything else got sold.
And you're forgeting the fact that I've posted before that two of the ten customizers do figures for customs like stef, TFManiac, and one that does them for free, three charge me anywhere from $10 - $75. The rest tackle harder to do characters or are out of the country but I always get quality work.
So I hope that solves everything, Rick

Got a update from Dustin. Bullseye "Hawkeye":Info: -Bullseye is mostly ready to paint. -He'll add a buckle to the quiver strap when he tighten it so the top of the quiver is visible over his shoulder like in the comics. -The back loincloth could also use sanding. -The quiver is a pen cap with some Bullseye leg-straps like on the covers of his miniseries. -The gauntlet is leather so he has a wide range of motion in his right wrist. -Dustin will find him alternate head and get a mini-figure to be Irredeemable Ant-Man riding an arrow. Warpath (Shi'ar story):Old w.i.p's: Info: -The Thor head looks smaller than the Omega head in these pics, but they're about the same size. -He'll look into some boots with side-to-side ankle movement for him. -Most of Moonstone's joints are sanded, so he might finish her around the same time as the others.

I got a painted update from dustin on Bullseye "Hawkeye" and a early wips of Sentry & Venom "Spider-Man". Bullseye "Hawkeye": Sentry & Venom "Spider-Man": Info: -He's gonna repaint Bullseye's modern bow, and the arrows look undersized so he'll make him some new ones. -The unmasked head is ready to paint. He hope to have a better lighting set-up for the next pics. -Dustin also put together a few parts for some more Dark Avengers. -The idea of Steiner as Sentry has grown on him. -He could have one normal Ka-Zar head (fitted properly on the neck, unlike the pic) and one with crazy hair and black eyes. -And Iron Fist is bulkier than he remembered, so he might be a good choice for Venom. -He'd shorten the wrists a little, but the Kevin claws seem right for him, and then he'd have Havok's head for his unmasked look, a Spawn head or something for masked and maybe a third grinning head with teeth. -He's going bulk up Warpath's legs to match with the Despero upperbody.

That Rocket Raccoon is probably one of the best customs i've ever seen, I don't suppose there is a formula?

Formula for Rocket Raccoon is: Superhero Showdown Doc Ock body Tanuki/Raccoon Dog from Sota's Street Fighter series III Ibuki. Not sure on the hands. This the head:

I got a update from Levit05 on Warpath (current X-Force) that he's making for my birthday (May 29th). He also did my Starlord team as well as Fraktur (cousin of FFF). Warpath (X-Force) Recipe: Head - McFarlane Fantasy Series 1 TYR Torso - DCUC Etrigan Arms - DCUC Despero Hands - McFarlane Fantasy Series 1 TYR Waist - HML Lord Thor Legs - HML Lord Thor Calves - TB Beta Ray Bill Feet - DCSH Bane Knifes - LCBH Clownface Info: -Shoulder balljoints are going to be changed for DCUC Etrigan's since those are smaller and fit better. I also got a update from M2K whose been busy with other commissions at the same time. He also made my Toad & Black Tom. Tombstone: Info: -There's still a few things he wants to touch up on him. -Tombstone's based on the exact look by Jkdalessandro "Tiny Man". i15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/Goonie1/Stuff/Tinymans%20customs/TombstoneCustom2-1.jpgi15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/Goonie1/Stuff/Tinymans%20customs/TombstoneCustom2-3.jpg" We're going for the same look for for Tinyman's Chameleon who still needs paint. And Attuma is based off of Darthleon Customs. Pics of their customs for reference: s15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/Goonie1/Stuff/Tinymans%20customs/Here's finished pictures of Black Tom Cassidy & Toad who M2K hasn't posted yet. Black Tom Cassidy: Toad: Rest of pictures are on pages 1, 4,

I got a cool update from my good friend Dustin on finished Bullseye, the Ant-man Arrow, Moonstone "Ms. Marvel", Warpath. Bullseye "Hawkeye": Ant-Man on Bullseye's Arrow: Moonstone "Ms. Marvel": Reference: Warpath: Reference: Info: -He primed Ant-Man so he'll just need to apply a few drops of paint and then Bullseye will be done. -He cleaned up the TB Hawkeye bow quite a bit and replaced the sight with a lightsaber hilt that has, of all things, a bullseye design on the end. -The handle is the original paint though so there won't be any paint rub when he's holding it. -Ant-Man's mechanical legs, antennae and stingers are bits of Star Wars guns. -Warpath needs the other leg bulked up, the front of his underpants (it's under his table somewhere), and detailing, which is the fun part. -The angry head will sit lower on the neck than shown here. -The boots are Bishop's and he's got hair from Darkness and X-23. -He's surprised that Moonstone came together so quickly. -Wonder Woman's head looks weird without eyebrows. -The hair is from a Grindhouse figure. It seems to match Deodato's art pretty well. -For durability, he was thinking of fabric or vinyl for the scarf. -He'll add a flight stand hole too. -Punisher/Ka-Zar sounds good for AXM Cyke.
