Mecha Mad and Figure Fixation V 2.0

Another Diorama here!

This time it's Iron Man Vs Namor Diorama.

Now this is how you do a diorama!

Again this is in perfect scale with Bowen and other 1/6 stuff and is huge standing an impressive 23 inches tall!

Very dynamic, very impressive water effects and excellent paints all round. Ironman has a lovely gloss to him as does Namor which gives a great "wet" effect as he rises from the water.

You can switch out the trident for a simple clenched fist if you like which takes the diorama down to around 18 inches if you have height restrictions but the trident is the way to go imo.

So after getting the Snake Eyes diorama i started hunting and i picked this up for ?90! I was looking at the Cobra PF but this is all the Cobra i need, it's perfectly painted, some of the best paints i have seen from SS and it just looks fantastic!

Instantly one of my fave pieces! 2 down 1 to go

That is amazing Alex, an absolute stunner.

The pics I've seen before have always looked nice but those are stunning.
It's easily one of the best statues I've ever seen.

I seriously cannot believe you scored that for ?90!!!!
That's unreal
I never see bargains like that.

Congrats again

Thanks buddy! It really is a fantastic piece, truly underrated.

I just search eBay mate A guy had it on and did a deal with him outside to get it that bit cheaper

Very happy!

It's lovely, but shouldn't Cobra Commanders mask be more shiny? It always looked chrome in the comics.

Yeah the PF one is chromed. This is a smaller Diorama so they didn't go for chrome on it.

I'm going to have to look harder on Ebay for these bargains lol

In Transformers related news the first teaser for Bumbleebee has been shown on Shogo Hasui's Twitter feed...



Shouldn't be long for the full reveal now then

I'm hoping he's nice and cheap as in theory he should be the smallest main yet

Clone Trooper Premium Format Exclusive. Picked this up last week for ?200 delivered, really happy because i wanted the exclusive for the Phase II helm. The droid arm is also part of the EX and is a nice touch for the base.

It really is a PF done right, all the black suit under the armour is real material and then covered with sculpted pieces for the armour. All the paints and weathering is really nicely done but what i really like is that the neck is on a ball joint, so you can have him looking where you want, it's such a little thing but it means you can pose him at different angles.

It also comes with a little stone plug for the gap if you don't want to display the droid arm.

He's been smoking with his feet, the nicotine stains give it away. Very curious to see how that Bumblebee above turns out.

The dust effect is really well done on the statue itself actually and the yellow subtlety blends into the white, the camera picked it up differently.

Someone over at TFW took the 'Bee pic & lightened it up for a kind of artists impression...




Giga power have released a few more pics of their Snarl to show scale comparison & he is freaking massive!!





He looks pretty impressive there & it shows they have been paying attention because he does seem to scale correctly compared to the cartoon...




I'm looking forward to the rest of their line up see how they square up.
