My Nighthawk arrived with a broken right arm...like the repaint, JB.  I was debating wether or not to do it but you've convinced me.  Haven't broken out the paints in some time.  I think I'm waaaaayy overdue!!!

Btw, JB...did you repaint Captain Britain's boots?

New Marvel figures!  I haven't opened them yet (most of them are heading home with me from work tonight), but Nighthawk has the only visible damage, with a severed right arm and one and half broken talons.  Lilandra definitely needs the black paint treatment you gave her, JB.

Since I created that particular design for Lilandra, I guess no one can
dispute my choice to paint those parts black!!

There goes so more of money...
Not sure about Madrox (wrong version, I guess) or Machine Man (minimal attachment t the character), but the rest will try and find a spot in my window display.

I've pre-ordered Union Jack, Ikaris and Machine Man. Madrox and Man-Wolf
hold not allure for me.

Hm, I would have thought that having drawn Man-Wolf in Amazing Spider-Man in #189-190 would pick your interest. It sure is the reason I will buy it!
I am not a good mind-reader, I guess. ;-)

I would have bought Man-Wolf if the sculpt was better/different.  Something about it I just don't like.  Union Jack and Machine Man for me.  Madrox is the wrong version and I don't care about Ikaris.

Fixing my Nighthawk's right arm last night, I noticed the cape apparently was bent forward, breaking the glue seal on the left arm as well, which was just hanging there.  I gently pulled the cape back to get at the 2nd arm...and finished breaking the glue holding the head and cape onto the body.  I've also lost the busted talon in my carpeting, so I'll probably remove all of them. 

Winged figures aren't doing so well with me, Vulture had similar damage.  I hope they pack Sauron better.
