"Covert"

The backdrop that came with "Little Nicky" is a tad under-sized compared to the 1:12 scale figures.
I had to work my magic to create the illusion of the backdrop being in scale using the "Atom" mini fig with a "Clown Thug".

"Casting demons"

Was torn between doing a "Constantine" display or a "Thunderbolts" one. "John" won the debate and the "Thunderbolts" have to wait their turn.

"The Black Panther will rise again"

Finally did a display with the modified "Black Panther" figure. I depicted him in front of his throne and in the midst of donning his mask.
Not crazy about the paint on this fig but I still had to have it because I like this character.

"Don't you dare!!!"

Got the TMNT figs today even though I never planned to get into this line of toys. The price was too attractive for me to pass up even though these are obviously "bootlegs".
The dog is from a "Little Nicky" set that I picked up from CSC today.
 Did one pic without the dog.

"Grinding"

Decided to get these "Droids" even though I swore never to buy "Star Wars" figs again. Glad that "Mindless" convinced me to because they make awesome props.
I initially planned to use the "Droids" as helpers in a laboratory but ended up doing this scene with "Mr Fantastic" working on one of them. I really like the final product.

"Ambush"

I keep seeing the same characters being surrounded and beaten up. Decided to switch things around and have "Daredevil" as the central character.
The "Wreaking Crew" figures are very impressive. I may just get "Thunderball" afterall.

"Grief"

More "Angel" and "Buffy" props. Also finally used the artificial grass that I bought for displays.

"Pray"

Been searching for a cross prop for ages and I finally got my hands on one.
The props from "Angel" and "Buffy" figs are really incredible.

"Prep"

Having a lot of fun with the "Doop" character. He is truly an under utilised character if you read his interesting bio.
My last display for "Team Week".

"Out of the shadows"

The "Azbats" figure is incredibly detailed. I was pleasantly surprised upon receiving the fig and am glad I bought it even though I have yet to finished reading "Knightfall".
"Hugo Arias" even threw in the "Clown Thug" into the bundle that I got from him for free. Thanks bro!!! Managed to squeeze in the custom fema

"Hunt"

Wanted to show off 2 new figs... "Doop" and "Sunfire". I posed them together with the "X-Force" team sans "Fantomex".
"Doop" is holding a "video camera" as well as a "microphone" which are not obvious in the pic.


"Welcome"

Killed two birds with one stone with this display. I got to show off my complete "X-Mansion" gate as well as finally using the custom female fig.
 
This was an opportunity to feature "Jean" before I trade her off.

"Focus"

Not too crazy about "X-Men" characters but I got "Jean Grey" to complete the "Rocket Racoon" BAF.
I borrowed this idea from "Boog Nice" who did a display of "Marvel Girl" pouring "Professor X" a cup of tea.
After creating this display, I am tempted to keep her.

"Marvel NOW! Thunderbolts"

Received the "Thunderbolts" variant of the "Punisher" today and quickly put together the team.
"Hasbro" has yet to release the "Agent Venom" figure and the "Thunderbolts" variant so I used the "Icons" version for the moment. I manually edited the eye colour using "Gimp".

"Show hand"

Had the sudden inspiration to create this display where "Black Mask" is playing "Poker".
I added "Mr Freeze" and "Deathstroke" flanking him on both sides.

"Sale at the Con"

I find it strange that most collectors like myself attend "Cons" but I have yet to see A.C.B.A. displays of "Cons" so I went ahead and recreated one such scene.

"Vampy & me"

This is how I envisioned my meeting with "Vampy Bit Me" went but in reality I was totally tongue tied and less cool.
She was dressed in her "Jun the Swan" outfit and not in her "Psylocke" look as I had hoped.
