...oops, I'm going to have to correct myself.  Bullseye is 87.5mm(so he's probably 85mm at the top of his head) and Super Skrull is 87.5mm.  I was thinking Deadpool when I originally wrote Bullseye.  So, now my two questions are:

1. Is Deadpool that tall?

2. How tall is Super Skrull(in "real" life, not figurine)?

Probably won't happen - DeAgestini have been running a Star Wars collection for the past couple of years in the UK (Currently around 55). Very expensive for what you get - a rehash of the Fact Files from a few years ago and a figure that I think is in scale to the current figure game. The early sculpts were also terrible so I stopped buying, looking at current sculpts, things look much improved. I think I read somewhere that there is a version of this based on the ships coming out in France.

Which is a bit strange as there have been some ships in this collection.

I'm with you Andy (Mokler). I think these figures are excellent but the scaling issues bug me a little. Eaglemoss make no mention that they are supposed to be to scale and other guys on this thread say that if you stand them apart it doesn't matter, I agree to some extent. However, Eaglemoss do appear to have paid attention to scaling in most cases and they do sell the stands showing that they intended them to be displayed shoulder to shoulder.

Galactus couldn't possibly be to scale in lead, but Kitty Pryde is taller than Ironman and Captain Britain! I wonder if Kitty and Lockheed would have been too fragile at the right scale and so was made more robust? 

Having said that, they are truly great little things and the scaling is good in many cases. I highly recommend them, Andy.

The Scale wouldn't stop me from collecting these as much as the additional monthly price might.  However, compared to action figures, the cost seems about the same but the quality and how I'd display them seems in favor of the figurines.  Compared to mini-busts/statues, the quality isn't quite as nice but the cost is so much less that it's no contest.  $40 a pop for the mini busts adds up quick with my budget!

I think Dr. Doom will start my figurine collection if all goes well. 

How pricey/rare are the earlier figurines?  The mini-bust's are outrageously high if you tried to collect the earlier one's now.

Scale has never really been an issue for me.  These figures are 3d representations of 2d comic characters and as long as it "looks" ok then I am happy.  Galactus was always going to be difficult because of his "percieved" size.  Must admit that some figs do seem to be on the fringes of what is acceptable Kitty Pride for me is too big, Iron Man too scrawney but hey, they are still damn fine models for the money.

I remember reading some of the comics as a kid so this series brings back good memories and actual scale don't really matter.

I have images of all the figs I have photographed side by side.  The images shown on the EM site are montaged, some scaled up, some scaled down to fit the available frame.

Galactus magazine made good reading for me, I knew very little about him, some great artwork in there and a reference to www.heraldsreunited.com made me chuckle. 

@JB  Do you still do commissions / personal artwork.  Reason I ask is because I am running a CMFC custom competition and am looking for a special prize for an overall winner.  If there is anything you can offer or assist with I would be eternally grateful.  Even if it is a case of me sending some magazines to get your autograph.  If needs be you can contact me directly on TGR@marvelcustoms.co.uk

The submitted models will be on show as of 30 Nov 07 on www.marvelcustoms.com

Thanks in advance
