I love when people make a custom and use a bunch of parts and pieces from other figures. I think it shows a lot of creativity.

The fact that the figure looks like a factory produced toy is great. It is crazy how well the pieces went together.

these customs round out the rest of my o-ring customs thus far.

Image
Tomax & Xamot
Head: ST Crimson Twins
Body: VvV Destro
Notes: wanted a go with a not-so-tall version of the twins for the VvV line and Destro's body added more movement/posability.

Image
Scrap Iron
Head: DTC Scrap Iron
Body: VvV Cobra Viper
Notes: i like how the colors matched better for him plus the better degree of movement & posability of the viper body.

Image
Zartan
Head: Comic Pack Zartan
Body: VvV Zartan
Notes: although the updated Zartan head was pretty cool, i wanted to keep the original hooded version for the VvV line

Image
Tomisaburo Arashikage
Head: Marvel Showdown Human Torch
Body: VvV Storm Shadow
Notes: wanted an unmasked urban-camo Storm Shadow as a JOE.

I like those, they look ready for desert battle and like a unit. Well done.

Geeze, Scrap Iron REALLY shoulda came out like that. Awesome job! That brings him forward quite well. I'm also impressed with what you did with Scarlett's head from that figure...it looked terrible as it is originally, but you made it look great!
OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
