Hello everyone!
I would like to introduce myself, I am a customizer local to the Sacramento area and have been selling on ebay for awhile now. This forum was recently brought to my attention at a local toy show here, and I was encouraged to post some of my customs here. I want to go ahead and start off with some of my Marvel customs, and will move into the M.U.S.C.L.E. customs after a bit.

As a Christmas bonus FREE SHIPPING within continental U.S. on all my lrg sales and this will be available for awhile now! Bought from me before and feel cheated 'cause you paid shipping???? Return customers get buy 2 get 1 free on any same priced items!!!!!

All custom painted M.U.S.C.L.E.s are $15 each, or $10 each if you buy 5 or more, or $2,208.96 for an entire set if you provide the set. If I don't have the M.U.S.C.L.E. you want painted, if you ship me what you need the price is still the same but I will cover the cost of shipping it back to you. Scroll through this thread as much is still available. If it doesn't say SOLD across the top of the pic.. chances are it's still available.

First off I will feature my Icon size Wolverine custom which is currently on ebay so you can check it out for more pictures and a brief description. Icon Wolverine



Alright here goes some pics of past customs.....

I concur! Other toy line customs are great to see too,...
but... I only collect battlebeasts...(and maybe a few kinkeshi/muscles) :) :)

Anyway, welcome!

Greetz, Donkeykid77.

PS Could you reduce the size of the pics you post slightly, because at the current size,
they don't show properly when I try to see them, thankx.

:yes: That certainly is some pretty good paintwork ID!

Since I am unfamiliar with a lot of the muscle's names,
I will call my favorite here JOJO the TireBot :lol:
Certainly a very cool looking figure now!

Kind of hard to see, but all the red areas are reflective! There is a silver leaf paint with Tamiya clear red over that. The effect here is that it almost seems to produce its own light from within.

Greetz, DK.

Thanks! On this guy since he is fairly monochromatic, I tried my best to carefully bring out all the detail with the drybrushing, and accented any parts that might be metal with some extra shiny silver leaf paint.

Suppose I should have posted the characters with their names as well huh?

Maybe next time around.......

I have no problem doing Battle Beasts :cry: .......


However I don't have some 400+ Battle Beasts just laying around screaming to be painted. :)

If you provide the figure and paint scheme I would have no problem painting it for you............ :cry:

Ashuraman is gone..... bump

I am going to give this a shot.
These custom M.U.S.C.L.E.s will be available until Saturday the 14th of June 2008.
If any or all of these guys are of any interest to you PM me with an offer! This will run as a trial kind of like a silent auction, and after the 14th this listing will be closed to new bids and the highest offer will win.
Shipping will be whatever the actual shipping to your area costs, and they will be well packed to arrive safely and in a timely manner.
If you have any questions, go ahead and shoot 'em my way and I will try and answer them in a timely manner.

I didn't see this thread until today, those look awesome. I bought some custom painted muscles on ebay a few years ago and they are a great part of my collection. I may end up getting some of these from you to add to it.

I'm not going to have a chance to list any of these on Ebay till Wed. the 18th so I suppose I can take offers up until Then and I will post when they go up....... Scrap all that, for now they will wait here. I will be selling them here for $15.00 ea. I might try and put 1 or 2 up on auction for cheap here and there to keep an ebay presence, but if they wind up in my ebay store the public price will be $20.00.

Thanks again!

It has been brought to my attention that my pictures SUCK!!!! and they are way too bright and make the colors look blotchy and washed out.... So I will be shooting all new pics of everything and replacing the ones here so far.
I never had the time to drop any of these on ebay so they are all still up for grabs, well except Ashuraman who now has a new home! :unsure:
Thanks guys! Updates coming soon (I hope)
