I have my whole collection at work. Other than my boss rearranging them in provocative positions once in a while, no worries.

I have a sizable collection at work, too. Right now all of the current Mighty
Muggs. Being a graphic designer, I find that it helps with sparking creativity.

Not the Classic Scorpion, then. Pity.
I presume I can trust British artists to get the flag right on Union Jack!!

Hopefully the flag will be correct, if not we will have to send a boarding party to eaglemoss Towers to find out what is "distressing them".
Also, Richard Jackson has started a BLOG over on the Eaglemoss website.....one way to see what is happening in the world of CMFC figurine manufacture and a chance to ask questions directly.

I calculated yesterday that the shelving unit I am using for my EM figurines
(Marvel) has space for about 25 more. With the way the herd is "thinning" as
new figures are announced, I think it will be quite a while before I feel that
particular crunch!

Looking at the Sentinel at the top of this page, again, I begin to think a
repaint would solve at least some of the problems I have with it.
Sentinels should be very smooth, and without the painted-on modeling we
see in that figure, the cuts in the muscles would probably be less
pronounced. Might also be worth trying to do a little manual smoothing of
the lead itself.

The musculature on the Sentinel is way too defined, but for me the biggest
problem is the color scheme. They need to be purple and magenta.

I have nearly all the Marvel figurines so far but it looks like I won't be shelling out as much as before as I see more and more that I won't be picking up.

I still haven't persuaded myself to get the Beast. He's the only original X-Man I don't have, but the kitty cat-look...I just can't do it.
