New Stuff added in 2003

12-29-2003 - My final custom for this year  is Moonstone, a member of the Masters of Evil (the group later became the Thunderbolts).  Hope you all have a Happy New Year.  I'll try to continue showing a new custom every week  for 2004.  Thank you for your support!

12-02-2003 - For the 1st year anniversary of my humble site, here's Nocturne and Sunfire of the alternate reality jumping Exiles.  Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to email me or comment on my customs.  I originally started customizing to fill in the gaps in my X-Men Toybiz collection, especially female characters and missing team members, and these two totally fit the bill.  I've got more figures planned and finished so please keep checking every week.
