Shouldn't be a problem, as I really don't prefer one head over the other.

it's probably a good thing I'm pinching pennies to get this new car cause that Colossus is screaming to me to make a sigma Fatal Fuzzy

Let me know if it still hasn't arrived by April first and I'll ship it your way.



Wow man thanks! I still need to send some stuff your way I just need find the right size box.

MaxPower thanks for the input I was pretty sure every one received the head already and my head went to another house or just plain lost in the mail.

I forgot about one dude I did aquire.
This guy is awesome.
This is the BAF Metallo from the Walmart exclusive DCUC wave.
(if you know anything about it, its that its very hard to find)

He'd make a hell of a Cobra B.A.T. Leader or even an Overkill.
He has awesome articulation and detailling. Even has cryptonite underneath his chest armor.

AGH, I wanted that Metallo SO bad!! Number one on Alexx's list of awesome things: Robots. Number two? Skeletons! That's how much I want that guy!

And you know? I never saw that wave ONCE. I didn't even get a chance to build him! He looks awesome, Max, this is actually my first time seeing him in his production version and not from the toy show photos.
OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

Metallo is an unlikely addition, to say the least.

Scoring a mint in mint-package Adventure Team Headquarters playset would be easier than getting a complete Metallo.

How'd you manage it?

ive seen a handful of complete metallos going on ebay for a pretty penny , and some auctions even just for parts of him

can buy the whole wave that builds him for like 250 bucks at amazon , i think it was that much.

awesoem figure indeed but if i had to choose between metallo and monkeyman im going for monkeyman!

You and me both, sir.

And there isn't any wave in history that I'd pay $250 for.

...actually, I'd happily pay that for all the unproduced Sigma stuff. But nothing else!

It did cost me a bit.
I do collect the DCUC line so I was trying hard to get that Walmart exclusive wave. It takes 5 figs to make Metallo, I had only scored one figure at retail, Riddler who was packed 2 per case. The other four I had to Ebay at about twice the price (which aint much now).

I did want a second one for custom fodder but I never found that wave at retait 'cept for that one Riddler.

Yeah, my bro TJ still doesn't have that entire wave, if I remember correctly; I wasn't able to find him a single figure from it. :(

What were your customizing plans for your theoretical second Metallo?

I was at TRU last night and I saw some giant chick in the Monsters vs. Aliens movie figures.. she looked about Sigma-ish...

looks a little too anime for me, but thought I'd post it.
