I’ve been wanting to make my own Green Lantern for a while because the whole basis of them is flexible. Anyone can be a Lantern as long as they show enough willpower.
So, here’s Yu.
She’s a Chinese-American former comic book artist who was chosen as a Green Lantern after being at the helm a large writer’s strike. I’m working slowly on a story for her, so we’ll see what all comes from it. For now, I hope you enjoy her.
L-R:
Slipknot: Torso credit to Doctor Zaat, helmet credit goes to AE5.
Prometheus: Quite glad with how this fella turned out. Now he just needs a purple belt perhaps.
Sportsmaster: This guy's pretty tall I noticed now that I've put him next to other figs.
Captain Boomerang: Pretty minor changes.
Enjoy the figs!
Edit: Just realized these are all Squad members, huh

"I put a shock in your system!"
Really love this photo, not just for the figure, (which is awesome), but just for the pose and the nostalgia. i fucking loved the static shock show when i was little, ans while it might not hold up as well as other dcau shows, i still love it, and static.
Well, yesterday I reached 100 followers on Flickr. I have to say I'd never thought I would get this far. I first started getting more into DC and custom figures in early 2018. Since then I've looked at Flickr from time to time to adore the amazing customs on here. However it wasn't until earlier this year that I first started my Flickr account, and while this site mY be dying it has been absolutely wonderful getting to share my figs with you guys. In the span of a few months I've gotten to talk to some of my favorite Flickr-ers (Killer Moth, Lord Allo, HMD BrickCustoms, etc). It has been absolutely wonderful sharing both my passions of Lego and DC Comics! I hope to stay on this site till it's very end. Once again thanks all of you for being wonderful people to talk to and share my figures with! Here's to 100 followers! (I guess maybe I should do a contest or something but IDK...)
Anyways thanks all of you!
Realized I didn't have any Nightwing villains built, so I put this guy together real quick, might also make Blockbuster later. Enjoy!

I made a bunch of C-Listers last night so here's some of them.
L-R: Cluemaster, Planet Master, Cavalier, Great White Shark, and Penguin
Enjoy the figs!
"Then Superman dat oh"
Anyways, here's some Supes rogues I'm pretty proud of :)
Cyborg Superman: Mostly based off his OG look from Reign of the Supermen with some of my own ideas like a dark blue suit and what not.
Lobo: Gave him armor, a shotgun, a machete (with a holster), new legs, new hair, etc. My favorite of the group.
Mongul: Used the armor piece everyone does. Other than that he's pretty similar to the one posted on Instagram.
Zod: Simple, but I like it.
Composite Supes: My least favorite, pretty simple all around.
Welp, that's it for now, still have some more Supes rogues but they wouldn't fit in with the "Evil Space guys and Evil Supermen" theme. So, enjoy these for now!
Okay!
So here are three DC characters commonly associated with Batman, you all know these guys. Since last summer, I've been slowly reading through the entire New 52 Bat-saga and I just recently started Batman & Robin: Eternal. Throughout this time, I've developed a greater appreciation for the New 52 Red Robin costume that a surprisingly large number of people seem to dislike; I think it's clutteredness and gadget-heavy design really fits Tim's modus operandi and I really like how distinctive it looks from the traditional red and green Robin garb. This isn't to say that I don't like his Rebirth outfit - I just think his New 52 one is a better fit to differentiate him from his Robin counterparts, both visually and thematically.
Speaking of Tim Drake as an thematically distinct character, I also recently read a really insightful comment on the DC Comics subreddit about who Tim Drake really is in the context of Dick, Jason, and Damian. The main takeaway was that more than any other Robin, Tim was the first who Batman considered as an equal-footed partner because of his dedication to the core mission of Batman - to inflict justice upon criminals, and to give justice to those who are preyed upon by criminals.
Long story short, I'm starting to have this perspective towards Tim. He was the Robin that I grew up with as a kid and I look forward to seeing where DC will take his character in the future.
Azrael and Bronze Tiger resulted from fiddling with table scraps. I was never 100% happy with my original Azrael (yuge throwback, lol) and after looking at a bunch of semi-conflicting reference images from Knightfall, I finally settled on a white torso with more accurate arms. As for Mr. Turner, I reread the "I Am Suicide" arc from Tom King's Batman, saw Bronze Tiger and a spare dark orange torso in my spare parts pile, and thought why not? I originally intended to make the fig entirely out of dark orange parts, but then it just didn't look right when all the parts were together. But somehow, just adding black legs instantly transformed the fig from a weird Pre-52/New 52 hybrid to a definitive representation of how he looks Post-Flashpoint, besides the fact that the location of his tiger stripes is reversed.
I'll be completely honest - I'm not sure if I have time to shoot for the special mid-April DC thing I mentioned before. And if I do have time, it will probably be late... I don't know, we'll see. I kind of want to make it really visually unique by using a bunch of Photoshop techniques I currently don't know. And I'm toying with the idea of including a TON of figures in the shot, but I've run into so many difficulties in the past when it comes to shooting large groups and still coming out with a good looking photo. I'll write this again as well as other miscellaneous updates in my next post, which has already been shot and is ready to go!

Green Arrow: This was the other head legoman685 made for me. It looks great, and it's double sided. Definitely check his stuff out, and he's selling a really great Hugo Strange figure, so go check him out!
Aquaman: I think I've shown him before, but i wanted to again. His design is based off his Futures end, and I gave him the smiling Thor face, since I love him in Batman: The Brave And The Bold, so i wanted to make him a bit more friendly.
Some characters that will/might appear in the upcoming Zebra Man Stories (I haven't forgotten about those).
L-R:
Human Magnet
Polka-Dot Man
Planet Master
Doctor Double X
Enjoy the figs!
I figured I had quite a few squad figures (though Waller and Flag were the only ones made just for Suicide Squad purposes) so why not make some sort a' Suicide Squad?
You probably know who's who so enjoy the figs!
Some upcoming allies (and enemies) of Zebra Man in my series. Most of these haven't been introduced yet.
Polka Dot Man
David Wist (The Human Magnet)
Spellbinder
Dr. No Face
and Preston Payne (the third Clayface).
My BTAS post flopped (TBH the only one I ready liked was Lock-Up) so here's a post with some more comic Batman baddies.
L-R:
Seafox: The color scheme is kinda flipped but the figs looks pretty good still.
Terrible Trio: Pretty good if I say so myself.
Tiger Shark: Needed a fifth fig, so I changed the oxygen tubes to yellow.
Enjoy the figs!
Just some random figs.
L-R:
Dr. Phosphorus: Gave him some new pants.
Blue Snowman: She's got new arms.
Minister Blizzard: The fifth time I've made this guy?
Mr. Element: He's a bit more accurate now.
Enjoy the figs!
Sorry for the lack of posting but I've got a bunch of Figs to show off.:

-Bronze Tiger
-Deadshot (credit for legs goes to Allo)
-Bane
-Killer Frost
-Maxie Zeus
-KGBeast
Enjoy!
Basically what the title says. Firstly, you can get the face from firestartoys.com, but I've modded the eyes a little. Also, the tubes, bandages and crutch were inspired by the Arkham Knight scarecrow. I decided to make one arm black and one arm brown because I felt like it.
Ventriloquist and Scarface: Not sure if I showed my old one but this one has a much better face. Scarface is based off of Killer Moth's.
Mr Toxic: Wanted to kinda do a different design than what others have done so I guess this is the C-Verse Mr Toxic.
Sportsmaster: Still wanna armor this guy up more.
Rainbow Raider: New head, torso, and a belt.
Enjoy!
Left to right
Ares- castle helmet, chestplate, sword and shield, Zod head
Vandal Savage- snape hair, Thorin head, Bard the Bowman torso, Batman legs
