A bit of sculpting for the lines in the boots and the bracelet....[See More] 9 Comments | |

I hate doing the sort of costume detail that are on his boots and gloves so if there's a chance to cannibalize the original ones then I usually...[See More] 13 Comments | ![]() by GrownNerd With Hasbro now making MLs a bit bigger overall, the DCUC bodies fit in better scale wise than compared to the older MLs.
