Glad you guys like. 3 of my 10 customizers are actually friends of mine, and the rest are really nice guys that do some kickass work.

My friend Dustin does customs from prices of $10 - $80. (repaints to complex customs) (Repaints - $10-$20, Medium - $30 - $50, Hard/BAF - $60 - 80) Only does work for himself and me. I paid him to only do work for me.
My friend Robert does customs from $50 - $75. (He did the New X-Men & Young X-Men customs.) Doesn't take commissions except mine.
My friend Eric does customs for figure trades.
I supply almost all the parts for my commissions so it really brings the prices down.
Example, I supplied the Giant Man parts for my Bill Foster "Goliath" custom and it cost me $85.

I bought another case of the 2-packs.
Anybody want to buy a Iron Man, Super Skrull (3x), or a Iron Man/Hill/Carter pack.
I'll sell the individual figures for $15 shipped, and the complete 2-pack for $30 ($26 cost+shipping+paypal fee) shipped
If you want the 2-pack Moc, it's $35 shipped. (medium flat rate box = $11)
thebigrick@sbcglobal.net is my paypal if anyone does want them.

Man those are pretty good deals that you get for your customs RAC.
I still need to find the 2 packs. I'm looking to get most of the nemmisis wave except for maybe 1 or 2. But since I'm getting most of them anyways I'm thinking about just getting them all for the heck of it.
Also has anyone on the east coast found any of the 2 packs at TRU?
And I have 50 bucks and am looking to order some ML's off of CMDstore. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should get.
(I only have 4 ML's right now Sinister 6 Goblin and Venom and a hasbro spiderman classics Spiderman and a Max gargan Venom)

Thanks, I know I do. It offsets the price when I get a $200+ custom.
2-packs have been spoted across the us so far. You should really register at fwoosh, they have a toy sighting board for each state.
Are you looking to build a Spider-Man collection? If you are, I would suggest using Waiting's site to find the ones you like to make a list then checking CMD, spamS & ebay as you can find some crazy deals sometimes.

10" - 18" customs.
I work, and had money ($2000) saved for customs from a couple years ago when I bought and commissioned wrestling customs. I got out of wrestling and sold off everything so I had money, I also sold off the rest of my collections to stay with Marvel.

I was amazed at what customizers can get away with for charging, but in the end, it makes sense. My brother started doing Legends years ago, before switching over to Mini-Mates exclusively. He's the best at what he does, that I'm aware of, without using decals. Recently, he completed this set 'cause he's a total Green Lantern nerd: He got a request for the entire set, replacing Warth with St. Walker and Sodam with Hal Jordan. He quoted the guy $15 per character (bearing in mind, a two pack of "parts" cost $7.99 or less), and got an immediate acceptance. $120 for eight mini-mates, and from what I've seen, he quotes low. Unreal. Wish I had talent. |

I believe he would. He's going to be out of the game until December, at which point he'll probably do short orders (his "workshop" is at my folks place), and then after graduation, he'll probably keep it up on the side.

Deadpool, Valkyrie, and Black Widow won
I knew deadpool and black widow would win, but come on, VALKYRIE.
Who the hell would vote for her. I smell some BS considering all three are going to be in a movie
