And very accurate homage was paid. Nice touch adding the card for comparison.

On a side note, it was mentioned that your abhorred most of the 25th molds. It has me puzzled as to why you dislike them so much. You could say I am biased, I like ARAH design, and as Yeet said, dont have much use for POC style figures, but I grew up playing with those style joes so that is probably where the bias comes from. To me, he undertow you showed looks fine parts wise, but I do prefer the 25th legs intsead. I am looking forward to what you do with it in regard to the parts choices knowing it will be spectacular.

😳Blasphemy!
Undertow is an Iron Grenadier, not a Cobra.

Super cool custom Slice! The wire for the headset was a very nice touch!

That’s probably your cleanest work imo. Also, how are you taking such good photos? What’s your display? Camera? It’s definitely an area I need to improve on.

Wow, that is awesome. One of your best I think, and the best iteration period.
On a side note, it was mentioned that your abhorred most of the 25th molds. It has me puzzled as to why you dislike them so much.

I very much appreciate the compliments on my work! To answer your questions, From my collectors side, I bought a few 25th guys MOC (HoH) as Mints just to add to my collection of ARAH. So from that standpoint I appreciate the line. Now from a Customizer and Dad, the builds suck. Heads and arms come off easy, some got good articulations but most don’t. Crap plastic. Not as many salvageable parts for fodder .So from this standpoint I despise them. Damnit good call.
