1/6 Hot Toys 1/6 Captain Marvel

[Zurdo95D]

I have all my figures boxed and stored in the attic until my basement renovation can be completed. But seeing some of these pictures make me want to bring my Captain Marvel down and pose her somewhere in my home office ...such a cool looking figure!

Very helpful. Which size did you use? The lowest one?

Welcome! I used the middle one, that one and the last don't have the ball peg attached like the first one. The boot is pliable enough so I just slotted in the extenders and the boots shaped around them and held them in place The connection to the figure's leg pegs is a tad loose but can hold poses, and right now I have her just standing on a stand and she's standing fine.

Like Zurdo I also used the middle extension. To deal with the looseness in the ankle I followed a suggestion in this thread and put a small square of cloth on the peg before inserting it. Now my figure has the added height and the ankles are very firm and secure ...a great success!!

I used the smallest ones, by filing them into a rounder shape to fit the boots properly.

I then put some Blu-tac in the pegs.

Nice Zurdo!

That is a cool pic of her and Spidey!!

I like the regular headsculpt for CM but I love how she looks with the helmet on!!

I still wish they would have gotten her blonde hair right instead of making her a brunette for no apparent reason.

Thanks! It?s the one I?ve had her in on the shelf for some time now. Nice to have a flying character in the collection!

It's not even funny, how much ankle extenders improve this figure.

I’d love to see a vote of who thinks CM or Palps needs the extenders more! The number of pictures of bases I see under Palps’ feet while sitting on the throne makes me gag every time.

Just absolutely fabulous! I LOVE how your pose evokes her final scene from the film...


Yeah I agree her hair seems a bit too dark a shade, however HT seems to struggle with painting blonde hair. The previous Cap and Thor head sculpts have shiny, golden almost light brownish hair from what I recall, though based on the prototype for the upcoming Endgame Captain Marvel they seem to have rectified that!

Thanks! I think the hair on the just-released Endgame Captain America is a better take on blonde as well, although Carol's hair should be even lighter than that.

This pose was definitely going for that "one last look back at Earth" moment from the end of the film!

I’m loving this display blingus!

The grouping is great and the poses look really good together!!!

 

[Zurdo95D]

Yeah fabulous photos and poses blinguskahn!!!!

I like how you have one figure with the masked head and bomber jacket combo, I don't think I've seen anyone display theirs like that LOL Still a good look! I have some more acrylic risers coming to put together my final Captain Marvel movie display!

Still waiting for green suit Vers and Yon Rogg to go up.

Anyone know where to get those leg extenders in the UK? Shipping is extortionate for what amounts to two very small pieces of plastic.
