Marvel Universe Unfinished Business Series 8: Fantastic
Four Foes and Friend
The Marvel Universe:
Unfinished Business line of 5" scale figures continues in its 8th CustomCon
appearance, with characters from the pages of the Fantastic Four. Starting
in 1995, Toybiz created 4 waves of figures from "The World's Greatest Comic
Magazine" to support the animated show. During CustomCon 11 we
released a line of four FF villains and now for CustomCon 15 we bring you more
memorable cast members of Marvel's First Family.
A 15 foot tall artificial lifeform created by the Mad Thinker, the silent
Awesome Android is capable of mimicking anything it touches, thanks to stolen
unstable molecules technology based on Reed Richard's research.
Frankie Raye gained fiery super powers from her stepfather, Phineas T. Horton
(creator of the original android Human Torch). She later dated the Human
Torch of the Fantastic Four and joined in their adventures but eventually she
voluntarily became Galactus's newest herald - Nova!
The Puppet-Master uses a special radioactive clay to carve life-like puppets
that he can use to control others. Though he has tried to dominate the
world many times and install a "puppet government," he has always been thwarted
by the Fantastic Four. Ironically his stepdaughter Alicia loves the Thing,
one of his greatest enemies.
Ivan Kragoff is a Russian scientist who subjected himself and his three
specially trained primates (Mikhlo the gorilla, Igor the baboon and Peator the
orangutan) to the same cosmic rays which bombarded the Fantastic Four.
They all gained new abilities as a result. Ivan, now known as the Red
Ghost posses the gift of intangibility (though he cannot become invisible like
the FF's Invisible Woman he can become faintly transparent). Mikhlo posses
super strength, Igor can transform into anything he imagines and Peator can
affect gravity or magnetism.
