MARVEL ACTION FIGURES, COLLECTIBLES AND COSTUMES

A spider web is a true marvel of nature. The animals connect several widely spaced points with thin, elastic silk threads.
The flying thread that results from this procedure consists of a bundle of 50 to 60 individual threads, each of which is just 250 nanometers thick. That's 200 times thinner than a human hair. Due to its special structure, even a small gust of wind is enough to set the flying thread in motion. With the first movements, the spider releases more and more thread from its spinnerets, until the flying thread gets stuck somewhere. However, a spider cannot influence the direction in which the flying thread is carried, it depends solely on the wind direction.
The spider proceeds systematically and routinely when setting up the entire orb network. The construction of a new cycle network takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the size. The flying thread of a horned garden spider can be up to 50 centimeters long. Since spiders are mostly loners and cannibalistic catch and eat their own kind, they are usually careful not to get in the way of other webs and spiders when stretching a new web.However, there are exceptions, such as what is probably the largest spider web in the world discovered by researchers in September 2018. It wasn't a single one, but a 300-meter stretch of coast in the Greek lagoon city of Etolikos was completely enshrouded in spider webs. A large number of favorable conditions had prompted the so-called Strecker spiders to create this unusual web network.
By the way: Researchers discovered what is probably the largest web ever made by a spider in Madagascar in 2009. Caerostris darwini ("Darwin's bark spider"), which is only 20 millimeters in size, builds webs that reach across rivers. The bridge thread can reach a length of up to 25 meters.
Yes, this is a real character. Look it up.
I've had this figure complete for some time but never got around to posting it.

Merci et à bientôt.
So you thought I wasn’t gonna show up just because it’s 2026?
Aww, sweetie… that’s adorable.
And yeah yeah, I KNOW I’m not the real holy dude but NOTHING keeps Marvel’s discount Jesus from making an entrance
Tell me this isn’t at least “divine cosplay with benefits.”
No, I’m not dead in case you're wondering...
These gates are just cheap knockoffs from a theme park clearance sale just like my halo.
So this Easter, remember to keep love in your heart. The same way I keep Hugh Jackman and myself trapped together in this friendship locket like two emotionally constipated soulmates.
❤️BFFs forever❤️
Whether he likes it or not.
And kids…
devour all the chocolate you can find.
Become the cocoa‑powered chaos gremlin destiny intended.
Just, uh… avoid the whole “digestive disaster” thing.
Nobody wants an Easter that turns into a literal… well… you get it (rhymes with shisthow).
And finally:
Hugs, not drugs.
Unless the drug is chocolate. Or caffeine. Or the soft warmth of a bunny you definitely didn’t steal from a petting zoo.

Well, as I previously mentionned, I am not a big fan of the panoramic framing. However, once in a while, you must admit it is a necessity... I tried to get decent shots of the marvelous Eystrahorn from a closer view point. But with my 70-200, I had no clue to fit it properly in the frame. So I needed to move hundreds of metter back. And then, it was it... Amazing set of tones, with a nice cloudy atmosphere and the subtle rays of light piercing through, just to turn the field and the farms right in the middle of the shot into a light-green passage. Even though it may not seem as a buttkick picture at first sight, I consider it as one of the best picture I've taken so far! Really happy about it !

So I needed to empty out my box of Marvel Legends tonight. I needed to get pictures of Iron Fist, Sasquatch and Maestro. Most of these were at the bottom.
I don't just tip the box out willy nilly and let them get bashed around, I carefully unpack it and stand the marvels up one by one.. these have been re-arranged slightly, but not to the stage where they are in a dramatic scene or shot. I was quite taken back at how many I have, this doesn't include the figures I have from the HML series or the Fantastic Four Box Set. See the Tags list for the figures or characters in this picture.
They’re real. Google it.
I discovered the other day that this team exist and I looked further into it. The concept is fascinating, as each member represents a certain group of people. Iron Man reps the normal humans, Dr Strange reps the mystic humans, Mr Fantastic reps meta-humans, Prof X reps mutants, Black Bolt reps Inhumans, and Namor reps anti-heroes. I thought it was cool, so I made them.

Not sure how the Swanson Schoolhouse has managed to survive. I've visited it before, and even peeked inside at it's bird ravaged interior. This time I just gazed at it and marveled at it's fortitude in the grip of loneliness and decay under a canopy of puffy clouds.
It has been suggested to have solo fig pictures unless I have teams or groups, so here is my updated Elektra
Patriot
Iron Lad
Wiccan
Hawkeye II
Stature
Kang

Two main members are left: Speed and Hulkling. So why aren’t they here? Because somebody (he's tagged)made the ultimate versions of them and I'm lazy.
Hope you like them and PLEASE COMMENT!

Sometimes I just get on a kick to paint some superheroes. This is one of those times. Here's Ms. Marvel.
Starhawk: Sorry Sly, you are not a weirdo, but the other two. Had the figure waiting to be photographed since I saw Vol.2. Now his time has come. Oh there is guy tagged: Superdaft1 he also had some great ideas for Starhawk so check him out.
Wanda: Actually I wanted to use this body for my Netflix Eletra, but I don't have the perfect head yet.
Vision: Maybe a after IW design. They'll definitely bring him back.
