Killer Croc Figure

This is the Battle Dice figure of The Thing from the Fantastic Four.
Battle Dice was a short lived game from 2006.
The Thing will be the basis for my Killer Croc figure.
I put a new head on him.
This figure of Greedo from Star Wars furnished the head.
I think the head looks more like a crocodile head than the one typically drawn on the comic.
I have repainted him green.
I think the conversion is acceptable.

Killer Croc Van

Hot Wheels van for Killer Croc.
It came in a 5 pack with a group of Batman related vehicles.
I don't really do much with Killer Croc but now that I have ended up with two different vehicles from him I decided I should make a figure for him.
It's a nice looking van.
Probably be worth happening even for a repaint.
The graphics are nice.
And the underside is okay.
Here he is with Batman.

Landing Pad

I got this Silicone Pot Holder & Trivet at my local Food Lion supermarket.
It's a hexagon shape and looks pretty cool.
I have a red one already.
I use them for landing pads for space ships.
I also plan to use it for Fantastic Voyage shrinking machine facility that I hope to build.  For several years now I have been gathering the stuff for that project.

DB5 by Aston Martin

James Bond and the DB5 car he is known for.  This model is by Hot Wheels and the figure is a generic figure in 1/75th scale and it just under an inch tall.
This car is made in Japan and is 1/87 HO scale with the same figure.
This is one of my James Bond figures for my 1/72nd scale collection.
The HO scale car and Hot Wheels 1/64th scale car look very different in size.  The figure looks plausible with both but seems to look better with the larger car, I think.
