The Mouse King is a Nutcracker character, so his inclusion makes this a Christmas photo. May a large demon from hell punch your problems away this holiday season.
#hellboy #fourhorsemen #figuraobscura #toyphotography #christmas
Hellboy raises his fist as he is about to punch the Mouse King, or more accurately several heads of the Mouse King, in the faces.

This Mammoth is huge. I thought "1/18 scale that's surely not going to be that big" but I did not factor in how massive these were, I guess. The quality on this makes me even more sad that the platybelodon stretch goal was never hit.

What an incredible figure. This may be my figure of the year. The heads are great, the cape is phenomenal, just a work of art all around of one of my favorite holiday characters. I'm gonna need at least five single-headed mice warriors.

How is it that of all the Glup Shittos that people have made kits for, there is no Rappertunie black series kit? I can get the old lady in a wheelchair from that episode of Andor but not Rappertunie? How dare.

I've never seen the G.I. Joe movie but when I do it'll be because I love all this dumb Cobra-La nonsense. I wish I could have gotten the other ones, but luck was not on my side. At least I have this badass snake lady!

Day 16 of #spideraday Assassin--I mean, Spider-Shot(??) vs. Kraven. I love the design of Assassin Spider-Man even if I don't have much attachment to the character. #toyphotography #spiderman #marvellegends
Assassin Spider-Man (Spider-Shot) is shooting his wrist gun at Kraven, who is standing in the background, surveying the city with his sniper rifle.

Day 15 of #spideraday Armadillo vs. Last Stand Spider-Man. I wasn't going to get the latter since the articulation is nonexistent but the design is great and someone was selling it at a significant discount. Armadillo sure would make a great base for Stegron #marvellegends #toyphotography #spiderman
Armadillo has his back to us as he faces off against Last Stand Spider-Man in some kind of a desert; perhaps its the wasteland from Deadpool vs. Wolverine, or somewhere in the American Southwest.

Day 14 of #spideraday sees my favorite look of all time, Scarlet Spider, up against the most 90s look, Kaine. I started getting into Spider-Man during the Clone Saga so this is exactly my shit right here, no matter how incredibly dumb it is. #spiderman #marvellegends #toyphotography
Scarlet Spider fighting against Kaine in some kind of abandoned building

Day 13 of #spideraday and wowie I just keep forgetting to post! Well anyways here is black suit spidey (animated series edition) vs. Smythe, a real weirdo! #marvellegends #toyphotography #spiderman
Symbiote Spiderman has burst through a window, and is vaulting over some horrible monster creation to kick its creator, Smythe, in the face. Pow!

Day 12 of #spideraday and my latest addition, Black Cat. Hasbro really needs to hurry up and release a Cartoon Black Cat on the new body because I don't want to have to pay for a second Black Widow for a custom. #spiderman #marvellegends #toyphotography
Black Cat has stolen an artifact from the museum, and Miles is taking a moment to stretch before he begins chasing after her.

Day 11 of #spideraday sees Spider-Armor Mk 1 face off against Silvermaine. The night lighting could be more effective. The Mk 1 armor is one of my favorite looks, even if its a bit greebiler here than I would have liked. #marvellegends #spiderman #toyphotography
spiderman in his spider armor deflects a missile with his spider-shield fired by Silvermaine while in an ally or something

Day 10 of #spideraday features the Sauron and Lizard chasing down Maximum Spider-Man. I think they'd get along because they both want to turn people into things.

Maximum spider-man is in the foreground running away from Sauron, Lizard, and two velociraptors chasing him through the underbrush of the Savage Lands.

Day 9 of #spideraday which maybe should be called #spiderawhenever but whatever the point of this is to just shoot a bunch of photos of my spidermen, so here's the glorious Spider-Man 1977, a figure I'm glad I was able to get. Look how dorky he is!
#toyphotography #marvellegends #spiderman
Spiderman as portrayed by Nicholas Hammond in the 1977 live-action Spider-Man series. He's standing atop a roof shooting a thick rope "web" out of his wrist, standing against a cloudy sky.

Day 8 of #spideraday is...very late, thanks to some time away and various other issues. But here's Negative Zone Spiderman and Mysterio, and a big bone snake. Oh no! #spiderman #marvellegends #toyphotography
Negative Zone Spiderman is freaking out as a giant bone snake is attacking him. But, with Mysterio in the background, is this bone snake even real???

Day 6 #spideraday Superior Spiderman vs. Speed Demon. This one was a bit ambitious and I probably needed to spend a bit more time with it, but that's for next time. I'm rather pleased overall with the effect. #marvellegends #spiderman #toyphotography
Superior Spiderman is being beset on all sides by Speed Demon. He's being punched in the face, gut, and other places by the speedster while the speedster also pulls on his waldoes and goes into the pizzaria, gets a drink, grabs a pizza, and then eats while reading the newspaper. What a busy guy!

Day 5 #spideraday we have Mezco Spider-Man and Doc Ock in "Take Your Nemesis To Work Day". Absolutely best Ock and among the best Spidey figures I own. Really hoping they do a classic Electro or Vulture! #mezco #spiderman #One12Collective #toyphotography
Doc Ock stands at a computer console, feverishly working. Behind him, Spider-Man is wound up in his tentacles, surely waiting to make his move.

Day 4 #spideraday here's my favorite quirky look, Bombastic Bag-Man, hitching a ride on The Human Fly, a villain I didn't know existed until I got this figure but am glad I own because he's a perfect D-lister. #marvelegends #spiderman #toyphotography
Bombastic Bag-Man is holding on to a web that has The human Fly by the foot, while the latter carries them high above the New York skyline.

Day 3 of #spideraday. I missed Sunday but oh well! Here's Cyborg Spider-Man, my favorite "too 90s for its own good" design for spidey up against Tombstone.
#spiderman #marvellegends #toyphotography
Cyborg Spider-Man blocks Tombstone's punch, surprising the large gangster, who is too distracted to notice Spidey coming in with a right jab.

Day 2 of #spideraday, black suit Ultimate Spider-Man and the spider-buggy vs. Hammerhead. Spider-buggy is repainted and upgraded with LED headlights.
#marvellegends #spiderman #toyphotography
Ultimate Spider-Man in his black suit is behind the wheel of the Spider-Buggy, but is hit by Hammerhead and is careening into a pizzaria window.

Its #spidermanday so time to start my new project #spideraday, where I will try to take and post a photo of all my Spidermans, one Spider at a time. The goal is to work out my "take a photo" muscle. I'm not going to try for the best shot, just for A Shot. Let's go! #toyphotography #marvellegends
First Appearance Spider-Man rips the mask off of The Chameleon, who is currently webbed to a wall, looking snooty.

Octo-Spidey! I've wanted this one for a while. Scratch-built the tentacle belt out of bits including a connector from a USB light as the fastener, making it removable. Luckily the Mezco Doc Ock came with plenty of tentacles to borrow for this. Helmet was made from cosclay.
The belt, pre-painting. Made from a bit of syrene sheet, some random bits, and a usb cable with the innards removed. The back of Octo-Spidey, a Marvel Legends Animated Series Spiderman with a tentacle belt. On display is the connector I used for the back, which gives what I think some very nice texture. Front of Octo-Spidey. Base figure is Marvel Legends Animated Series VHS Spidey. Belt is scratch built, tentacles from Mezco Doc Ock, and helmet sculpted from cosclay. The OG Toy I based this on, a spiderman with awful proportions but a belt and visor I loved to play with.

Thirteen (!) years ago, @katesidhe.bsky.social and I got together to build a 1/60 PG Gundam RX-78-2 Special Color Variant Edition I accidentally bought. Now that I'm getting back into gunpla, I've decided to restore this gundam and give it the justice we couldn't at the time. (1/2)
A gundam RX-78-2 in special variant colors. The photo is very low quality. An example of the kind of wear and tear the gundam had, and that we gave it when building it. The top leg is the untouched left leg. The bottom is the restored right thigh. Scuff marks and nub marks have been drastically reduced.

This Hellboy is incredible! Glad I finally have it in my collection.

Inspired by the ML Livestream reveals today for the Fan4, here's my Galactus/Fan4 display. Reed's arms are custom by me, made with cosclay and bendy wire. Sue's head is a Gwen Stacy head swap. Galactus effects from @canofbeams.bsky.social
Galactus stands in all his glory. At his feet, Sue faces against Morg, Herald of Galactus. Climbing the side of the display is Reed, stretching out towards him. On the other side, the Silver Surfer pleads with Nova, herald of Galactus. At the top, Galactus shields himself from Human Torch's fire while The Thing attempts to take him off guard. And overlooking all is Uatu, the Watcher. A focus on the top of the diorama; the Thing and Human Torch team up against Galactus while Uatu watches A dynamic shot of Reed stretching out towards Galactus while Johnny attacks in the distance. Sue sending Morg, a herald of Galactus, reeling back.
