Fin Fang Foom is just too far off-scale for me. I was able to convince myself Galactus was VERY hungry, and that's why he's so small -- but FFF is a couple of hundred feet long!

I'll stick with the HeroClix version!

It's been a bit slow at work lately, so I bought a couple more CD holders and brought most of the rest of my Marvel figures back to the office from home.  I have about a half dozen custom projects gathering dust, so Wolverine and others will be missing for a while.

Nicely done, Ryan! But you need some more Sentinels!

No room here!  And they are about a quarter inch too tall to fit inside these boxes.  I'm sure I'll be shuffling these around several more times and the X-Men will probably end up back at home before long.  There are a bunch of Avengers and villains coming out that will need the space.

I just looked over the next 50 or so confirmed figures and 33 of them are sure things or maybes depending on sculpts.  Geez, I'll need a second desk here before long.

Thanks, Brad!  I love sitting a foot away from them all day.  I check out Guardian every single day and always shake my head in disbelief at the story behind it (thanks once again, JB!)

Sorry for the lousy phone pics.

Looks sweet Ryan!  Like the set up a lot.
As for the Sentinals, I noticed when JB was showing his collection one time that he had three Sentinals and thought that was a great idea so I picked up three myself.  I just need to finish painting my Brad Cave and get my figurines set up.

Sometimes I feel the urge to pick up about a dozen more Sentinels and pepper them all over the Studio in unexpected places!

I've always been big on "scale" when it comes to figures,
JB, so I understand that irk you have with Fing Fang Foom.

I wonder what a scale Celestial would be for this line...

Sorry, I was out of town for the weeknd and just remembered to check for a Friday blog update.  Looks like Wasp's hair is here to stay.  The wings are still being sorted out.  Here's an early work in progress on Pyro.
