Well finally I got the Ice that I ordered from Matty Collector this week. And silly me was expecting it to be better than the one that I got from China... spoiler alert it wasn't. The waist twist was even stuck just like the one form China, and it has the same sloppy paint as well. I knew there wouldn't be any difference with the ugly head when they released the production figure, but dang is that one terrible head sculpt.

So with one of them I'm going to make some improvements. After unsticking the waist I had to get rid of that ugly head, and then I'm going to be adding a little more paint to the figure to give the white areas some much needed shading.

Hmm... I wonder whom I can make from the second one? Who else wares a shirt/top like that?

I picked up an extra Ice and my initial thoughts, not that I plan on making either, were Dawnstar lower legs, 80's Rogue upper body.

looking for some advice..... Does anyone know where I can get some casts of 2 Glock 26 pistols for my Black Widow Scarlet Johansen Avengers Infinite Series figure, since her guns are molded into the holsters?
I'M not even sure if there are any figures that came with Glocks to fit her size scale. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
