This is more custom Joes. Customizing has pretty much made a hole in my wallet, but I think it's worth it to be able to make some Joes who aren't getting their time in the lime light.
Any who, I'm so P.O.ed about Dial-Tone now being a girl. No disrespect to the opposite sex, but don't use a pre-exiting character and do that. How's Dial-tone going to explain it to his parents Hasbro? Name her Ring-Tone next time. Worked on Repeater before I saw he was coming out in box set, but the box set version makes me happy I did. With Footloose, Repeater, and Law & Order finally making it into the Joe line, it's so bitter sweet that they all have on the same uniform instead of their classic threads. Low-Light was my favorite to work on because he was a bunch of odds and ends I didn't think were going to make this figure, but in the end it kind of did. Jinx popped up out of the blue. Wasn't planning on making her until I realized ROC Snake Eyes back makes for a good dual sword wielding pack. And yes, Wet Suit's head is Serpentor's original mugg. All I'm saying is that with a little Green Stuff, it can make a big difference. Only thing new on Tunnel Rat are his painted eyes, and his custom flashlight back pack that Hasbro left out (more of a mod than a custom). P.S. Law is finished, but I'm on the lookout for a Order figure. Steel Brigade is on the way too. Last edited by Slaughter's_Marauder; 09-03-2009 at 12:55 AM.. |

I used the same recipe for my Dial-Tone, but I tried to free hand paint the emblem on this left arm so it looks like like crap. How did you do yours? Printed label?

Those look great. Loving the more complex customs as well as the simpler mods.
Question on the Wet-Suit... Hasbro didn't include the flashlight, is the flashlight a vintage one with the new pack and sled, or are they all 3 vintage? The reason I ask, is I am OCD and want the flashlight, but like that the new ones are a crisp color and I already matched the Flash helmet to match them. I want to get the flashlight to "complete" him, but wondered if the color was the same? (Dial-Tone's old gear isn't the same color as the new "Dataframe" gun, for example... is why I ask.) |
