Border Patrol: WWE Elite Scale Play Set – Must See!

For this edition of Border Patrol, we’re just featuring one eBay auction. But it’s a doozy!

WWE Elite Scale Play Set by Extreme Sets – ends Sunday, 4/26 at 5:42PM

I am instantly wary of eBay auctions listed with qualifiers like “OOAK HTF L@@K!!!” in the title. This auction is not titled like that; I’m the one applying the labels, because if you love action figures, you’ve got to check it out.

This play set was built to accommodate a Mattel WWE Elite Scale ring – that’s not included in the auction but you can pick up an Elite Scale ring with free shipping at the Mattel Shop this week. The play set comes with pretty much everything else (minus the figures, naturally) to give your wrestling action figures a full-size arena to put on a show. It comes with a couple of entrance sets, a Jumbotron and speakers that are suspended from the ceiling, and a custom built audience, complete with wrasslin’ slogans on their t-shirts.

This was a prototype built for an ambitious but ultimately underfunded Kickstarter project from last year. Be prepared to see a huge price tag, and know that this play set is so huge that the seller is only accepting bids from people who can pick it up (in a pickup truck, most likely) from its location in Southern California. Even if this puts you out of the running, you should still take a look at this one-of-a-kind WWE Elite Scale play set.

Border Patrol: Marvel Legends Daredevil, Deadpool, and Hercules

For this edition of Border Patrol, we’ve got three Marvel Legends customs. One’s from the small screen, another’s from the big screen, and the third is from our favorite source, the good old comic book.

Marvel Legends Daredevil (Netflix) by glennwebman69: Daredevil on Netflix was awesome, and I’d love to have figures from it. But this applies especially to the masked man in black look, which I liked much more than his final Daredevil costume. With the dark tone of show, I’m not surprised Hasbro passed – but I’ve seen some claims that they’ve found Daredevil Legends in an inventory system somewhere. Your guess is as good as mine. Ends April 19 at 2:11PM PST.
Marvel Legends Deadpool (movie) by AC Custom Figures: Seeing Ryan Reynolds in the Deadpool costume has gotten me hyped up for this movie. “@#$% you, Slater!” Let’s just hope the movie doesn’t suck, like Wolverine: Origins. Ends April 19 at 7:00PM PST.
Marvel Legends Hercules by stevidcustoms: Compared to what Hasbro is putting out these days, their earlier effort for the Lion of Olympus was as cheesy as the smile on its face. This custom shows you what should have been. Ends today at 7:30PM PST.

Border Patrol: Marvel Legends Rogue, WWE Seth Rollins, and Transformers Optimus Prime

In this edition of Border Patrol, we’ve got some tried and true favorites plus a new champ:

Marvel Legends Rogue by Loose Collector – the DC Direct Hush Poison Ivy has been a go-to head for the likes of Rogue and Jean Grey for years, but the Loose Collector crew is one of the few capable of executing the recipe so cleanly – ends Wednesday, April 8 at 7:03PM PST
WWE Wrestlemania 31 Seth Rollins by highlytales88 – just how much is a WWE Heavyweight championship worth? – after snatching the title from Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania 31, this Seth Rollins custom skyrocketed in price, getting bid up by fans looking to secure memorabilia from his championship run – ends Thursday, April 9 at 4:57PM PST
Transformers Masterpiece Optimus Prime by billmeistercustoms – it’s been a while since I’ve seen a Masterpiece Optimus Prime, but with as many as there have been, and as many as there will be, it makes you wonder just how much more Takara and Hasbro could charge for a metallic paint job – ends Wednesday, April 8 at 11:16AM PST

Border Patrol: Marvel Ends of the Earth Spider-Man and Colleen Wing, and Star Wars Black Series Deadpool Fett

For this edition of Border Patrol, here are three Marvel-themed customs from across Hasbro’s toy lines:

Marvel Legends Ends of the Earth Spider-Man by happydaycustoms – I never read the Ends of Earth series where Spidey crafts this armor to fight the Sinister Six, but I see the costume when I’m online playing Marvel Heroes – definitely looks cool, and the custom is well done – ends Monday, April 6, at 5:45AM PST
Marvel Universe Colleen Wing by Delo-customs – with Misty Knight coming in Spider-Man Legends, I’m going to need Colleen too – this one’s in 3.75-inch scale but if she were Legends-sized you’d be bidding against me – ends Friday, April 3, at 7:27PM PST
Star Wars Black Series Deadpool Boba Fett by FanBoys Toys – this mash-up might not be your thing, but with a new Star Wars movie coming out at the end of this year, and a Deadpool movie on its heels in February, maybe it’s time these two characters get the bodyslide by two treatment – ends Thursday, April 9, at 9:02PM PST

Border Patrol: Marvel Legends Polaris, Strong Guy, and Forbush Man

For this edition of Border Patrol, we’ve got three Marvel Legends customs that have varying degrees of possibilities to see plastic form from Hasbro. From most to least:

Marvel Legends Polaris by IslandToybox – Polaris is one of the most popular of the X-Men who hasn’t seen a figure in the Legends line – she is regularly at the top of the most wanted lists, so maybe Hasbro will get the hint – ends Friday, March 6 at 5:35PM PST
Marvel Legends Strong Guy by callan-86 – X-Factor’s Strong Guy is a possibility in either the Build-a-Figure format or using one of the larger body types that Hasbro has developed – but he probably doesn’t have enough mojo outside of X-Factor fandom to get his own figure – ends Friday, March 6 at 8:39PM PST
Marvel Legends Forbush Man by Kustom Novelty Workz – let’s face it, as much as you and I may love Forbush Man, it’d take a miracle to see Hasbro make an official one in the Legends line – available via Buy It Now or Best Offer
