I cringe while thinking of how much all of these would cost to have made. Still, for a hobby you love and the AMAZING work they did, it was definitely worth it. You have some fantastic, one of a kind, pieces in your collection as a result.
I really had to look over these a few times just to catch all the amazing details. Thanks for posting, and please keep us updated as the new ones roll in.

Thanks guys.
pridefcf, I sometimes cringe when I realize how much I've spent so far. I've paid alot in the last 2yrs where about 50-60 customs are paid off that aren't made yet.

Thanks for posting these! They are just incredible. The paint job on Mole Man is beyond words.
For some reason, I think my favorite is Nimrod. It's not insanely detailed like some of the others, but the sculpting is so clean and it's such a convincing job that I'd think it was a factory job if I didn't know otherwise.

M2K is amazing..the only guy I know that can go from WWE customs to Indy to Buffy the Vampire Slayer to Marvel.
anyways I am currently working on a wolverine and I wanted to ask you RAC what the biggest line of action figures was for Marvel? Because I did a head sculpt and it is a little large and would probably need to go on a body a little bit bigger than a JAKKS DA figure..
..any help would be appreciated.

They have the 12" Icons then the 6" figures. Rick, let me know what/ who you're looking for.. I may have them in the works.

That Bill Foster Goliath was a ML Giantman wave Giantman ( he was the BAF or Build a Figure)... I remember seeing the WIP pics of it way back when.

Sandman, I know what you mean. M2K is a monster. I definitely gotta go with HR2X, the 12 Icon's would probably be exact. HR2X, I'm definitely looking for more classic X-Men right now that I don't have. NYdream, It's a Giant Man heavily modified and extended. s15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/Goonie1/Bill%20Foster%20Goliath%20Custom/?start=allcheezehead6, thanks. Inggasson, Executioner and the rest are gonna take around 1-2 months for stef to paint. But I'll update as the pictures come in. quick update, "Exiles" Colossus: Reference:

I just wanted to share some pictures of Red Sonja that I'm having made by a customizer named Sam. 11/4/08 At first I wasn't sure what body I wanted Sam to use for her as I don't like the short weirdly sculpted Psylocke. So he bought up the Ann O'Brien figure from Toybiz's Legendary Heroes but she's way to tall for her. So he just dug out one of his many psylockes and did a quick mock up of a potential figure. With extended thighs and midriff, buffed breasts, shoulder blades, biceps, legs, and butt too *not all shown, cuz he ran out of blutak* So then I decided it was a go and he started sculpted on to the figure and in a few days came up with something nice. He widened the shoulders, reconstructed back, added girth to her rib cage, buttocks, etc. (no pics) 11/5/08 He then took some pics with regular psylocke for scale as well as filled in back peg hole, along with some other minor things. He got rid of the extra ribcage, as he thought it was a bit much. 11/7/08 I had him sculpt over her stomach joint and reshape, which overall has turned out nice. He's going to do the abs properly though, instead of dodgy line holders. He did the bikini armour today, waiting for it to dry now. Also took a scale shot with Marvel Legend's Wasp & Legendary Heroes's Ann O'Brien . 1/23/09 some nudity: i15.photobucket.com/albums/a360/Goonie1/Red%20Sonja%20Custom/Sam/RedSonjaCustom6-8.jpg-Basically he bulked up arms, he trying to sculpt some muscles on back, etc, etc. -The fabric was Sam's idea since he had did a Sonja before as well as the top part.

Alrighty, got another update from Sam on Red Sonja, I just got a comment from Frank Cho himself on Sonja on his board. I think Sam's gonna love that.

Dude you gotta killer body of work here!
Really impressed with the lengths you went through to make Nimrod!
That White Queen is a million times better than what Hasbro put out.
Excellent stuff!
