I hadn't read any Milestone until the recent volume of the new history of the DC universe that tried to do some canon melding, and now I'm definitely going to be reading more. I'm making a wide variety of Lego DC figures for a future building project and decided to add a few Dakota residents too - let me know how they look!
Made after reading the milestone entry in the new history of the DC universe.
L - R: Static, Icon, Rocket, Hardware
Exotic animals, spices, strange fruits, gems, silks and finely woven fabrics, beautiful carpets, and books of magic, anatomy, and astrology: all manner of goods have come to market with travellers from the East, here to celebrate the King's great fair.
1: The New Teen Titans, left to right: Nightwing, The Flash (Wally West), Starfire, Raven, Beast Boy, Donna Troy, Cyborg
2: The Fearsome Five, left to right: Shimmer, Mammoth, Gizmo, Psimon, Doctor Light
3: Rose Wilson/Ravager, Deathstroke
4: Kommand'r/Blackfire
5: Grid (not really a new teen titans villain that I'm aware of, but unless I do more earth three characters, this is the best grouping for him!)
6: Brother Blood
7: Trigon
Group Shot
Amanda Waller, Rick Flagg Jr.
Deadshot, Black Spider
Katana, Bronze Tiger
King Shark, El Diabolo
Harley Quinn, Peacemaker
Some of these are pretty much directly as they've come as official figures (Deadshot, Bronze Tiger), Harley has influences from a few different designs, and the rest are completely custom. All feedback welcome!
I didn't even notice it until after I'd taken the photo!
I'm sure there are other good uses for them, but here are the new parts from the newest CMF series that I'm using for different DC customs:
Firestorm with the legs from the Tahu cosplayer on plain red hips
This is admittedly a stretch because the parts already existed - i just didn't have any. But the pink legs from the Boba costume go perfectly with this torso for Tweedle-Dum and Tweedle-Dee.
The arm from the vampire hunter with the test tube on goes perfectly with the torso and legs from the 2016 Scarecrow figure.
The hair and tiara from the unicorn princess, and the skirt from the witch, go perfectly together for Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld.
The flies from the trash monster made great accessorizing for Beelzebub from the Triumverate of hell.
The torso from Tahu (with the hips) works well for Icon, and the goalkeeper's hair (which may be in other sets, I'm not sure) works well for Rocket.
A surprising number of things for Green Arrow characters! Cheshire has the arms from the Ronin, while Connor Hawke looks great with his hood and hair. The aperture head from the robot dinosaur works perfectly for Onomatopoeia.
I'm sure other people have other ideas - let me know what you're doing either for these characters or for other parts from the new cmfs.
