OOPS! this should be titles POC Style Fast Draw by Azoric
Any Mod Help please?!??! It didn't take long for me to get the new Duke (Found him on sale Easter Weekend at a Toys R' Us near my hometown during that sale). I know i'm not the first to attempt this, but here's my take on one of the hottest figures of 1989! The body is all Destro (not the arctic one, the one with the briefcase full of cash). I'm not telling where the head came from, I'll let you guys figure it out ;-) The backpack is from Duke as I mentioned. and the scarf is painted (he NEEDED some red, but painting the helmet red seems silly in the 21st century). The helmet was sheer luck! I just happened to find a box of random old ARAH era stuff and this helmet not only fit the head but the whole theme I was going for! Yay Luck! The goggles (in lue of a face-mask that I was totally unwilling to sculpt) came from POC Dusty. His belt & Holster came from some POC Viper (I did some troop building with those last year and now I don't know why?) I thought a guy named Fast Draw needed a cool pistol! So I went with the green color scheme as an homage to the original. It's not the 80's anymore so I didn't do any blue, and kept the red to the minimum. Enjoy the rest of the photos!

Oh, here's a silly, but related question?
Did anyone else ever take the Fast Draw figure and the Raptor wings and put them together like they were a SilverHawk? That was the primary reason I wanted those 2 figures.... it was lame. I think I had more fun using Fast-Draw's backpack as a rocket-pack when he fought against Strato-Viper. |

Sweet custom! He has always been a favorite of mine, FD came out in the 1987 line up.

He sure deserves a little love. I really dig the part you used.. I would go with something a littel mor technological for the helmet (but it's just my taste).

I was going for a very high firepower gunslinger. so he has the scarf around his neck and goggles. My Quick Draw loves westerns and think he's Doc Holliday meets Tony Stark |

I like that interpretation of him, the western angle. I always thought it was cool that he was basically a walking tank, but I never cared that much for the original figure. I think a Wraith head, with the nose and mouth cover of the mask cut off would make for a good Fast Draw head.
