Need some guidance
Sat, 2012-07-28 11:52 — HaljorI need some guidance from everyone here. I cannot customize figures, other than some head swaps. There are some characters I'd like to have and I just don't see DCUC and Marvel Legends making these figures. Can you all make some recommendations for some great customizers I could contact about commissioning some figures made? Thanks all!

Anybody have specs handy for the size and weight of the SDCC Super Helicarrier box?
Thu, 2012-07-26 14:29 — ob1I have a friend in Brazil who's interested in getting the Super Helicarrier now that it's back in action at HTS. I'm pretty sure that sucker is too big for USPS to send outside US, and would like to help with any info on the best way to send it internationally.
Anybody have the size of the outer box and know how much it weighs?
A slow boat may be be the best option, but would appreciate any advice if anybody here from outside US had to get one home from SDCC.
Dark Knight MM Blake at Walmart.com

Here's the direct link to the figure on Walmart.com. Catwoman is up too. Gordon isn't. And I couldn't find Ra's Ghul anywhere on the site.
Good luck.
Holy cow! The Batmobile is parked in my work garage!!
Wed, 2012-07-25 12:49 — Leonardo T DragonSeriously-- came into work today and saw the 1960 George Barris Batmobile sitting in our garage! Apparently the owner is visiting Children's Hospital of Illinois tomorrow in FULL COSTUME to cheer up the kids!
Posted a bunch of pics as well as a link to a feature on the owner here:

Why do so many of the retro/Mego figures have oversized noggins?
Wed, 2012-07-25 07:52 — scott metzgerLooking at the pics of prototypes for the 8" Six Million Dollar Man figures at SDCC, something I have wanted since the 70's (I had the 13" figure, but he couldn't team up with my 8" Justice League), I'm seeing the same problem so many of these figures have had: huge melons on top of their shoulders.
I'm completely mystified as to where this came from; the original Mego figures had a grand total of four figures out of all their offerings with huge, out of scale heads, namely the CHiPs figures and Daisy Duke (maybe five if you count Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch, but he's borderline because his head is an odd shape to begin with). The other heads looked normal on the bodies, not macroenchephalic like these.
Some of the retro figures look fine, like the Dark Shadows or the Trek figures. But so many are looking like the awful Space 1999 figures from several years ago, where it seemed they stuck a 12" head on an 8" body.
