Guardian's flag looks much better on JB's version.

There's only one way to draw the maple leaf icon used on the Canadian flag.

Correctly.

My LCS had two figurines today, the first time I've seen them in stock there.  They had Wolverine, which I didn't care for, and Galactus, which was mighty sweet looking.  How much do these figurines typically go for?  They had a $38 price tag on Galactus and $12.99 on Wolverine.

Standard figurines, which are the majority, run $12.99.  Specials, of which Galactus is one, vary in price.  Some are $20, others are $29.99, and Galactus is $38.  Just depends.

I think John's Guardian is perfect and a hundred times better than the overblown official version. After all, John is just the creator of the character... The only thing that seems kinda off is the face which fits the Silver Surfer but not so much Mac.

Galactus is everywhere!



Can't wait to see him in your official display William.

JB, your Guardian custom is really good. It's going to be scary good when you build up the mask. Hopefully someone at Eaglemoss will see your custom and at least correct the flag on the costume for the official release.

Hello to everyone, this is my first posting, really impressed with all the collections I've seen throughout these threads, I got hooked into the eaglemoss collection and hope it lasts for many years to come. Picked up Galactus this afternoon and very pleased with it, I'll try to get some photos up at some point, seems like a great gang of folks that congregate here, looking forward to learning more and see what I've been missing out on.
Dave.

Once I get up the nerve to do the build-up on the helmet, that should be
fixed.

JB, you did a really good job on the Gaurdian! You could use the Gaurdian's open hand to hold a Canadian flag.

What I'd really like to do is find a suitable female figure I could turn into
Heather, for Mac to be holding with that extended arm.
