Ever since I introduced The Hulk and Iron Monger into my Joeverse, I've been itching to include Captain America and Iron Man.

Does anyone know of an easily accessible Captain America shield that would work well with the 25th 4" figures? Or an easy way to make one? I'm going to make a 25th Captain America as soon as I get the parts. I know exactly what I'm going to do except for the shield.

Anybody have any ideas on how to make a 4" Iron Man?

Any ideas will be appreciated.

Thanks!

The SHOWDOWN! figures that marvel produced a few years ago would have a shield that would work well, I'd think.

Anybody have a set of Viper goggles, Snow Job skirt, and/or a Gung-Ho lower torso/crotch piece they want to get rid of?

Also, I've been looking at the 25th figures and I really don't see a way to make an Iron Man. I've been looking at Star Wars clones thinking if their armor could work somehow. I did think of making Tony Stark from the SDCC Cobra Commander. Just pop the CC head off and put on a head that looks like Tony Stark. Any ideas besides Duke?

Black Widow - Cover-Girl head on a Lady Jay body w/ Scarlett legs? Paint it balck and there ya go!

Finally, I may make a Nick Fury. Just pop a Mace Windu head on a TF Flint body. Add a Snow Job skirt to elongate the shirt, add web gear from one of the original Joes, sculpt on an eye patch and goatee, then paint and you have it.

Thanks to Eopie Herder for the Captain America shield and G.I.Eddie for the Gung-Ho lower torso!

Coming soon:
G.I.Joe meets Marvel Heroes
Snake-Eyes as Wolverine = Snake-Claw
Scarlett as Jean Grey = The Scarlett Phoenix
Hawk as General Nick Fury
Duke as Captain America
and...
Lifeline as The Incredible Hulk!

By the way, Eopie Herder and G.I.Eddie have inspired me. I know I'm new to this board, but I think we ought to have a sticky thread were we can list our custom wants, because G.I.Eddie and Eopie Herder saved me time and money looking for the parts I wanted.

If anybody has a Snow-Job skirt, it would help me out a lot!
