Custom Marvel Legends Astonishing X-Men Emma Frost
Even Hasbro acknowledged that they could have done better with their Marvel Legends Emma Frost, and when they first showed the prototypes for the Marvel Madames, I thought there was hope. I won’t claim credit for the idea – Robokillah was the one who saw the potential for a repaint of Madame Hydra for use as Emma Frost.

CustomCon 30 – Day Four
Welcome to CustomCon 30, the fifth installment to be hosted by TheFwoosh.com and ActionFigurePics.com!
What is CustomCon?
CustomCon is a special presentation of new custom toy creations by customizers around the globe. Ten years in the running, it’s still going strong. Inspired by the presentations of new product by legitimate manufacturers at Toy Fair and other trade shows, CustomCon is a “fake” convention, whereby customizers present their latest creations and recipes as if unveiling a new line of real toys to retailers. It’s always a lot of fun, for both the viewers and the participants.
