"Inner circle"

As usual, I'm slow in getting new figs. I finally got hold of the new "Red Skull". It's a major upgrade from the "Toybiz" versions but I hate this body mould. Other than "Baron Strucker", the rest of the figs are from "Hasbro".
 Trying out different lighting angles.

"#selfie"

Been exposed to the "#selfie" craze recently amongst my CG members. It was inevitable that I had to do a pic inspired by that.
I chose "The Flash" aka "Wally West" because of the "smirk" on his face.

"I have a job for you"

Got a few new props and figs recently. Decided to use them for this simple display with "Lex Luthor" and "Parasite".
I wish I had more props from the "Matrix" line of toys. I'm happy to get the "bootleg" versions of the "Morpheus" armchairs.

"Shy guy"

Tried out this "swap" using the "Sydney Savage" head on the "Katchoo" body.
The head has a scuff on the cheek. I need to send it to "Billy" to salvage.

"Media circus"

Finally got myself a "Clark Kent" with the help from "Victor". Wanted to do a scene with "Lex" where both of them are sitting down but realised that his "jacket" doesn't permit that so I ended up doing this scene instead.

"Crash"

Was at first excited to finally open up the "X-Jet" from "Toybiz" but was soon annoyed to find out that the front landing gear was missing. I'm trying to source for a replacement.
 In the meanwhile, I had to make do with this display. Since I can't get the "X-Jet" to land properly, why not do a crash scene?

"Beat down"

I've tried a few fight scenes with "Daredevil" before. Thought I would give it a go again with my new LED light.

"Experiment"

"Hank McCoy" has gone through several "mutations" during his time with the "X-Men". This is his classic look after he lost his human appearance.
Had to depict "Beast" in a lab setting.

"Court of Owls"

Finally got my hands on "Talon".
Incredible sculpt and accessories but not a perfect figure. The "daggers" that came with it were flimsy and can't be stored in the "scabbard" properly as it will end up breaking when I swivel the upper torso.
Decided not to use the "daggers" with the fig.

"Welcome back O"

Always wanted to do a "Birds of Prey" display with "Oracle". I don't have a "redhead" yet so I used the "brunette" fig which is "Faith" from "Buffy" as a stand-in.
I will get an "Oracle" fig made. Stay tuned.

"Bounty"

Decided to pose "Lobo" in action capturing a "bounty" in the form of "Despero". The 2 C&Cs look good together.
Wasn't easy getting the "Wonder Man" prop to levitate but I made it work.

"Electro"

Decided to get the classic version of "Electro" from the "Sinister Six" box set instead of the movie version.
Still experimenting with white backdrops and lighting.

"Earth's mightiest"

Received the "Wasp" prop from "Curt" today so I decided to pair her with "Yellowjacket" and the "Hulk".
Got a challenge to deviate away from my usual black backdrops and dim lighting thus this setup.

"Neutralise"

A good pic is a hard act to follow. It was tough coming up with a decent display after the "Cable" and "Hope" one.
I settled for this because of the arrival of "Doc Samson" and the "mechanical arm" prop.

"Helplessness"

Talking to "Jeremy" got the creative juices flowing and I arrived at this display.
I can imagine "Cable" feeling helpless being trained as a soldier and not being prepared to care for a baby "Hope".
