Just got my G.I. Joe Classified Scarlett today, and had this backdrop from a figure I got yesterday, so I knew what I had to do.

“Whoa! Sorry, didn’t mean to sneak up on you. You just look a LOT like someone I know!”

(Is it just me, or does this new Scarlett figure look like Mary Jane from the PS4 Spider-Man game?)

Glad to have my Vintage Star Wars Hoth Imperial Attack Base Playset almost complete now.

How’s everyone else’s weekend going?

#squadgoals? 

So I’m a dumbass and accidentally deleted this post before. I had two alternate versions of this pic, but ultimately I think I like this version better.

I left out DW in the top one because I wasn’t sure if it needed to be more...serious? Though the whole concept is silly, so he fits right in.

Enjoy! Again

Hunter’s moon.

So even though Hagnon from the Mythic Legions line glows green, when you light him with black light, he turns blue.

Some more rooftop pics, this time featuring Netflix Daredevil. These didn’t turn out great, so I tried to improve them slightly. Not sure if I accomplished that exactly.

More rooftop pics, featuring (Big Time) Spider-Man, Venom, and Scarlett Spider. Also featuring my indecision about which angles and lighting I like best.

More rooftop scenes staring Daredevil and my further experiments with lighting.

“Were we real Joes? No. But did we have what it takes? I dunno...maybe? We’d probably do okay. Is that guy an orc?”

Beachhead: “Wilson; stop narrating!”

“I mean, I’m not going to die. This chick, though-“

Beachhead: “WILSON!”

So I’ve never played Fortnite, and don’t know anything about the characters, but I really liked the design of Leviathan. He looks very retro-sci-fi. None of his weapons match that aesthetic, but luckily the raygun that came with Fry (Futurama) from the Toynami line does!

I even got him into the same pose as a vintage Spacman of my dad’s.

No official comics/photo stories today, just some shots from tonight. Enjoy!

A Brief Rundown of the Cast

So, you may see some recurring characters in the photos that I post here. I’ve taken some photos to give you an idea of who they are.

At some point these three are going to be named and part of the main cast. For now they’re basically just Elf Assassin, Orc Security, and Orc Warrior.

these three are stand-ins. The clear orange figures could be holograms, place holders, mannequins, or an alien species. Depends on the context/what I need at the moment. The gargoyle is...a gargoyle. Could be an antagonist or merely statuary. Just depends on what I need.

These guys will provide the main antagonists/random bad guys/punching bags for our main cast. There’s a lot of them, and they’re up to no good.

And, last but not least, our unnamed protagonists. They’re ready for battle and, judging from their masks, gas attacks. They also have their own custom vehicles (one of which I detailed on here before.)

This is just a quick update and an excuse for my son and I to take some figure photos. Enjoy!

(These figures come from Boss Fight Studios, Hasbro’s G.I. Joe, and Acid Rain lines of figures.)

Another Short Photo Story I Sent to My Son

(Which was also a way to show off that I had ordered some more army builder figures. In retrospect, there should have been at least a few more photos to really flesh it out.)

Things aren’t looking good for my Acid Rain Marine.

And as the enemy presses in, he know's he has no choice but to surrender. They don't seem to notice the movement from behind the Opossum.

*minigun noises* The red guy is making a break for it!

The Marine notices that he dropped something, though, and sees his opportunity.

"Not so fast!"

"I don't know who sent you, but you're not making it back."

More Acid Rain figure photos! This time, exploring a mysterious new location with a deadly secret! (Photos, shoot concept, and staging all done by my son.)
