T8OO's Snyderverse (mainly) Collection

[T8OO]

I thought I would share my collection. I'm making a few changes so it's a good time to share and archive.

Here's a few pics just to give a decent idea of the general collection:

Here's what my collection looked like in 2006:

I had (still have) a Sideshow 1/4 scale Endoskeleton but don't have a picture of mine currently and it's in the loft

Due to lots of life happening, my collection took a back seat for a while (those pesky kids with their "need" for food and somewhere to sleep)
I ripped all my media to servers. I still have the weapons but got rid of most of it

Then in 2019 Zack Snyder's DC movies really gripped me and I got the collecting bug again.

I'll start with the 1/6 stuff.

My wife bought me a DC Collectibles BvS Batman and it snowballed from there:

I was dubious about getting Justice League items but I had faith that if Zack ever got his cut out I would like it.

I bought some shelves but the only thing missing was a Knightmare Batman. I didn't want to spend that sort of money (V1.0 Knightmare Batman was quite expensive in 2019) but there was no way I was mixing scales.

As soon as he arrived I got the Hot Toys bug and started replacing them all.

I made my first custom, a Black Suit Superman. Bought a cheap loose BvS Hot Toys Superman from eBay. I based it on Zack's first pic of the black suit which he ended up changing, so I then changed it again:

I ran out of space so I made my own version of the previous shelves. I added flight stands hidden in the top shelf and sunk into the wall on the sides. I fed power through the plaster for the lights:

Looking back at these shelves now, There's a sense of less maybe is more. I used a DC Collectibles Cyborg with the base removed.

When the official Hot Toys well dried up I started looking into more custom items like Scaletta Faora and my own customs. Some turned out better than others:

I went with 1/6 3D printed statues for Steppenwolf and Darkseid:

When the Hot Toys Cyborg got announced I started messing with the statue so I could use him in the Knightmare group. I cut all the limbs off, adjusted his height and pose and wired LED's into him. I chrome painted and weathered him. When the Hot Toys arrived I did a neck transplant on him so the 2nd Hot Toys head could be fitted:

I next turned my attention to Man of Steel Superman. I spent a significant amount of time on this one. This was my 2nd version. After discussing @Gipetto0812 and his version I went back to the drawing board. The body is a mix of BvS and Man of Steel parts. I measured a still of Henry Cavill in the suit and adjusted the body to near as damn it the same proportions. Dyed the suit instead of painting it and painstakingly hand painted the trim:

After a successful MoS blue suit, I wanted to do the black suit too. Very similar idea:

I customized both Deathstroke figures to give them a better height and physical appearance by swapping and modifying bigger bodies plus I added the missing elements to the Knightmare version with the help of @Chopper Face:

I made a custom Martian Manhunter by painting a Phicen body with oil paints:

Fitted an LED into Deadshots mask:

I got JazzInc Batmobile and Bat Signal. The signal symbol was wrong so I changed it. The Batmobile is in a glass table I'm making at the moment:

Some poses:

I have a few other 1/6 stuff. I've always wanted a Delorean and the image at the end of The Dark Knight has always stuck with me.

I have the Batpod in my Office at work. The Delorean is currently in it's box:

Onto to my 1/1 scale stuff.

Some cowls, a Batarang, Grapple gun and the Codex from Man of Steel (took me years to find one of these):

Onto my 1/4 scale statues.

I started with Sideshow BvS Batman. I think this is an underrated statue. The face paint wasn't great so I had it redone:

Sideshow Man of Steel was next. This was another one with poor face paint, so I had it redone again. I sold this last year as I had three Superman statues and this was the weakest. At some point I wouldn't mind getting it again and heavily customizing it:

SIdeshow BvS Wonder Woman, another face repaint. The first one that arrived had a bent sword. Sideshow asked me to smash the whole statue up and they will send me another one. I kept some of the smashed pieces and made them so she can have her sword and shield on her back and holding her lasso (2nd pic face hadn't been done):

Sideshow BvS Armored Batman, I wasn't able to get the exclusive with the grenade launcher so I made one. Made a spear too. The face on all the original armored Batman statues/figures was of the stuntman so even with a good paint app it was never going to look like Affleck. I transplanted the face from a Jakks Pacific figure into the head:

Weta black suit Superman. The first one came but the paint for the whole thing didn't look like what was advertised. I complained. They sent me another and asked me to draw all over the old one. I ended up getting them both repainted:

Queen Studios ZSJL Darkseid:

Weta ZSJL Knightmare Joker. I was on the fence about this but a 2nd hand one came up on eBay for a great price so I jumped on it, glad I did:

I've started making my own 1/4 scale statues of characters that aren't currently available. I'm using Jakks Pacific figures as a base, so far I've done The Flash and I'm currently doing Cyborg:

You are a big DCEU fan as far as i can see. Amazing collection and very good display, my friend. I really enjoyed ZSJL, but i can't say the same for Man of Steel or Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice... What i have as ZSJL in my collection can't even be compared to your amazing collection. I just collect Mafex ZSJL line Action figures, it is how i show my appreciation of the ZSJL Film in my own small way.

Thank you! Personally, I wouldn't say DCEU but I understand why many would. BvS is by far my favourite among them all. How many do you have?

Is there something wrong with DCEU name ??? I have never seen anyone use it in any negative way ??? And i have Cyborg and Superman (Black Costume) so far, Aquaman is on the way, Batman will be released in August and Flash is just announced from Mafex ZSJL line. Other than them i have a Mezco Batman Tatical Suit figure.

I think with WB moving further away from what Snyder had planned and the change to a less serious tone. DCEU sums up all the DC movies from 2013 until 2023. Over half of them really dislike.
WB released Josstice League and that is canon to the rest of the DCEU from then on. Whereas Snyderverse includes MoS, BvS, ZSJL, probably Wonder Woman and David Ayer's Suicide Squad (if it ever got released) and ends there.


No Wonder Woman?

Oh, that makes sense. Mafex will probably release a ZSJL WW in the future.
