Am I the only one who thought Amalgam was pretty awesome? Better yet, am I the only one who thinks it would be awesome if they got back together and did a modern era verson? Maybe on the latter. I did Iron Lantern last week by request and realized I wanted to make quite a few more. So, I looked over the various combinations and stumbled across this guy. I had been wanting to make a Thanos, so this seemed like a different, yet cool way to do it. The combination of Thanos and Darkseid.

Simple enough figure for the most part. Took a Thanos and did a full repaint, cut the skirt down to just the belt, and then got stuck at the head. I couldn't find a Darkseid head that would fit right, so I looked and found Skaar. I cut the hair off and thought it had that right look I wanted. Sculpting, however, is still not my strong point. But, after a couple attempts with multiple sandings to try again, this was the attempt that actually came out the best.

Recipe:

Body - MU Thanos
Head - MU Skaar

Bad ass! I loved the Amalgam comics.

I've been wanting to do a Super Soldier, but haven't found the right head.

I too love the Amalgam comics. I skipped them at the time but have bought several recently. I particularly liked Bruce Wayne Agent of SHIELD, Speed Demon, and Bullets and Bracelets. Each had great toy potential.

Thanoseid turned out great. Keep up the good work and keep cranking out Amalgam customs!

I love this, I mean I LOVE this. Awesome work on the head.

Thanks. This guy's actually up on EBay for the week if you or anyone else is interested. Link is in my signature.

Thanks for all the comments so far. Wasn't expecting Thanoseid to get much of a reaction. Glad to see there's some Amalgam fans out there and it's not just me. lol
