DIY Super Hero Action Figures Let You Roll Your Own

The thing with all the action figures we talk about around here is that other than changing hands, posing them, and putting weapons in hands, you get what you buy. If you have always wanted to make your own action figure, ThinkGeek has exactly what you need. These 6-inch action figures come as white blanks and let you create your hero.

You can paint the blank white action figures and give them weapons from other similarly sized action figures. There are male and female versions and each has a cape included. The figures have 14 points of articulation and three sets of hands. There are fists, open hands, and hands for holding weapons. The super heroes are made from semi-flexible PVC.

One of the action figures is $12.99(USD), or you can get both male and female for $19.99.

Deadpool Movie Is on, Ryan Reynolds Confirms!

Yep, I am a sucker or superhero movies. I like almost all of them, though the standalone Hulk movies did stretch my limits. One of the characters I liked in some of the other Marvel films was Deadpool and I thought Ryan Reynolds did the character proud, talking and hacking his way through bad guys with swords.

Last summer a teaser turned up that had a bunch of us wondering if the Deadpool movie was coming. I talked about it again in September when it sounded like the project was still in the works. Now a standalone Deadpool movie has been confirmed, with a likely 2016 release date.

Ryan Reynolds also took to twitter to confirm with an image of Deadpool made from spent ammunition and the phrase “Uh… It’s Chimichanga Time.”

Superhero Beer Sadly Will Not Give You Powers

Brazilian artist Billy Butcher has created some really good looking superhero beer design concepts. The project is titled The Comic Book Super Drunk Hangout. This collection is all about a certain type of hero. Antiheroes, or not heroes at all.

You know, the ones that you would not want hanging around your kid. These are the guys who enjoy a beer or four and then would proceed to try to save the world and screw things up royally – a-holes like Wolverine, Deadpool and The Comedian.

I really like the labeling. It’s too bad we don’t have any real Superhero-endorsed beer. I would drink that. Check out more images at Billy’s Behance page.

LEGO Flash Meets His Match in this Diorama

Growing up I was really into DC Comics’ Flash because he could run really fast and I wanted that super power for myself. I figured I could easily get all the cookies I wanted if my parents couldn’t see me move. I always wondered how exactly the Flash’s enemies would slow the speed demon down.

If you look at this LEGO diorama of flash speeding through an intersection, you will find his little known worst enemy- banana peels. We all know those are slippery.

I really like how Flash has the streak behind him made with translucent bricks to give him a sense of speed. What do you think, would banana peels slow down the Flash? Hello, Mythbusters?
