This post is mostly about other things.I mean, this Thanos is… fine? He’s big and he’s bright and the sculpt is OK. But he’s one of those old-ass Build A Figure big boy molds Hasbro likes to roll out for a couple years until they get around to reengineering him. So his articulation is mostly ass. So why did I get him?
Well, it’s a Gameverse thing. A Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 thing. A Psylocke thing. He’s part of a two-pack with a brand new Ninja Psylocke, a figure I wanted in the collection. I’m also on board with a bunch of the Gameverse stuff down the line. In fact, I realized I hav a SIGNIFICANT MvC2 subcollection going on and that’s extra motivation to acquire Certain Characters I might have otherwise passed on. So I got this two-pack. Preordered it from Japan in fact - so glad the time difference worked out.
I’ve also spent the past week working on a Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 Universal Stage in Affinity Photo 2. As of right now, I have full control over both players’ character names, health meter, main character’s damage, hyper meter level, portrait, hyper meter fullness, and background. Eventually I’d like to be able to edit the text above the meters and the timer count, but I need to find a font match to do that.
I also spent a bunch of time trying to get Mega Man to look like he got snapped, MCU style. I freely admit it’s not great but it’s about as good as I expected it was gonna be. I took great pains to try to get the left side meters to represent a snap, as a little in-joke just for me, and now you.
