Everyone’s favorite fuzzy elf finally receives the appropriate representation in action figure form, complete with ‘Teleporting Action’ display base. Sure, the base doesn’t actually *do* anything, but he looks great displayed in front of it, you gotta admit.
Nightcrawler originally began as a reworking of an Inflato-Spider-Man (the one that came with the raft awhile back). Due to the lack of necessarily articulation, Nightcrawler was further reworked to add legs from the Black Costumed Spider-Man figure. The hands and feet came from the Giant-Sized X-Men boxed set Nightcrawler figure. The head is a modified Astro City Confessor figure, while the tail is taken from an X-Men Evolution Nightcrawler figure. 2
The base was a lot of fun to create. It involves three ‘water spout’ bases from the Marvel Legends Namor figure, all of which were reworked with modeling paste to achieve the right texture.
