Marvel Legends Icons Agency X – Custom Deadpool, Bob (Agent of Hydra), Taskmaster, and Agent X

Marvel Legends Icons Agency X - Taskmaster, Agent X, Bob (Agent of Hydra), and Deadpool

In the past couple of weeks I’ve posted customs that I entered in CustomCon 24.  First, I posted my Earth 2 Superman, Batman, Hawkman, and Robin customs, which were part of a group entry for the DC Universe Classics Justice Society of America.  Last week I posted Iron Fist, Steel Phoenix, and Shang Chi, three Marvel Legends customs which made up a solo entry called Marvel Legends Martial Arts Masters.

To wrap it up, here’s my write-up on four Marvel Legends Icons customs – Deadpool, Bob (Agent of Hydra), Taskmaster, and Agent X – whom I entered into CustomCon as Agency X.  For those of you paying attention, I submitted them under a pseudonym, Iron Molars, which is an anagram of my real name.  I did so in part so I could write up a gratuitous self-description, but also because I was just a little embarrassed that my three submissions were all on the last day.

Traditionally, CustomCon saves up for a big finale on the last day, but this wasn’t a case of me thinking my stuff deserved that.  Rather, it was because I was just so overloaded getting the rest of the days entries throughout the week prepped that I didn’t have time to get my own stuff finished.  I took these pictures the same day I put the final day of CustomCon up.

Border Patrol: All Deadpool Edition

In AFP’s Border Patrol, we scour active eBay auctions for customized action figure that you won’t want to let slip by!

Three ongoing monthly comics, a movie starring Ryan Reynolds in development, and both Marvel Legends and Marvel Select figures coming up – and these three customs being auctioned simultaneously – I guess Deadpool has achieved Wolverine status!

Marvel Legends X-Men Deadpool – Daniel Way fans (I’m not one of them) will like this version of Deadpool from the latest arc in the main Deadpool monthly and the X-Force Annual – I found the whole concept stupid but think the custom captures the costume pretty well – ends Dec 21, 2009 18:10:23 PST

Marvel Legends Martial Arts Masters – Custom Iron Fist, Steel Phoenix, and Shang Chi

A week ago I posted my Earth 2 Superman, Batman, Hawkman, and Robin customs, which were part of a group entry for the DC Universe Classics Justice Society of America in CustomCon 24.  These three Marvel Legends customs were a solo entry called Marvel Legends Martial Arts Masters.

I’m going to return to my traditional style write-up of talking about the individual customs, as there’s a bit of history and a little more complexity in how they were created.  As a group, the interesting thing is how much time elapsed between finishing the customs and when I actually published them at CC24.  It’s different for each figure.  Shang Chi was essentially finished a year back or more.  Iron Fist was the same, but I was adding some tweaks in the weeks leading up to CustomCon.  And Steel Phoenix was finished the day he got posted, and in a rush, too.

I honestly thought about canning the entry when I put up Rust This World’s entry for Immortal Iron Fist and the Immortal Weapons, but I had been sitting on finished customs for Iron Fist and Shang Chi for so long that I just went for it.

AFP Hasbro Marvel Q&A Roundup – 12/17/9

After missing a month, we’re back with the latest Marvel Q&A from the team at Hasbro.  Thanks guys!

1. What can we Marvel Legends collectors do to encourage Hasbro to create some sort of online monthly or perhaps even quarterly figure release program similar to the one Mattel is successfully using over on their website? I know that if it can work with a property like Masters Of The Universe it can definitely work with Marvel Legends. As someone who like many has collected 6-inch figures for years I really wish there was a program like this that would get us more 6-inch Marvel figures.
