Blade figure

[mindfad]

Hello all,

So hero clix especially now can be an amazing place to find amazing sculpts of various superheros.
Not really for Blade:

I personally hate this one:

found this one on ebay. Way over priced for the quality:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CUSTOM-Heroclix-BLADE-VAMPIRE-HUNTER-Figure-Unique-Snipes-Version-Pro-Painted-/260868493057

Then i kinda like this one:

Are there anymore expensive "not" blades out there or characters that could be easily converted possibly. I tend to keep to the cheap pre painted figure but im annoyed they've remade all the big heros numerous times and blade apparently is gonna sit on the side lines.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated guys.

Not prepaints, but there is this guy:-

(who seems to form the basis of one of those above), or the 'Night Stalker' from

Are there anymore? Kinda stinks, i love the musketeer pose but really not the face.  The gear on the west wind is sweet but its just kinda blah. Big kris at musketeer is an awesome Whistler, a little too shaggy but the rest is soo spot on! Bought.

Found this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BLADE-Marvel-Comics-Vampire-Hunter-2005-Miniature-Buildable-Bandai-PVC-FIGURE-/160902670757?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item25768be9a5

love the shape and build. just a fyi if anyone knows of anything else out there.


Never really painted, before any recommendations: like the paintjob on the Big kris is spot on, no idea how to even attempt to replicate it.

The help so far awesome and any more thanks guys great help.

Im in the US, certain miniature companies have resellers, anyone know if musketeer has one in the US? shipping is not terrible but it would be a little easier.

What about adding a GS hairstyle and a Sword swap to this guy from heresy?

Don't thank me, thank Andy at Heresy for sculpting such awesome figs 

Probably be easier to try to fill it in with Liquid GS or plastic putty than filing it down I would imagine!

 you guys are so boss, your knowledge of miniatures is amazing. Would there be a better head for whistler, that anyone knows of? Or am i pushing it?

...second figure from the right

[Heldrak]

IIRC, there's a pretty good not-Blade figure in the Heroscape line (not to be confused with the awful Heroclix one...).

This guy was in the marvel pack or was a random guy in one of the expansion that looked like blade/

The old guy head u linked to awesome for sure.
Thanks for the tips guys
