"Cobra Commander's ego requires his presence to dominate the battlefield, but hiding out in a tank or in a command center just wasn't doing the trick. Commissioning Dr Wily to build him a massive armored suit was exactly what was needed. Nuclear powered fuel cells and state of the art robotic servos power his new Combat Armor. Now Cobra Commander fearlessly charges into battle, blowing away anything in his path and leaving a wake of destruction as he becomes a one man army!"
This figure was made from: Head: Resolute Cobra Commander Body: Revoltech #041 Patlabor Brocken Lower arms: Revoltech #021 GR-2 Cannon: Major Maxim gun & T-100 base Cape: 5-pack Cobra Commander Shoulder cannon: Transformers Brawl This is an incredibly easy and effective custom to make. Props to the poster at 4chan's /toy/ who originally put CC's head on an Iron Monger body. I'd been meaning to make a S.N.A.K.E. armor of some sort and his Cobra Monger inspired this. You don't even need the GR-2 forearms if you just wanted to use Brocken's. I only did for the flat wrist surface I could attach additional weaponry to. More pics here---> Cobra Commander Power Suit ----------------------------------------------------------------- "A man with a second chance, returned from the grave, and chosen by the lightning. With power far beyond that of a normal man Casshern is an enigma of science. His body ripples with strength so great he can cleave metal with his hands and run with the speed of bullets. While fighting against the Neo Sapiens Casshern learned that you cannot escape the sins of the past; only atone for them. Now he uses his powers to help those in need and bring peace to the world." This figure was made from: Head: RoC Storm Shadow with sculpted mask Upper Body: RoC Reactive armor Duke Lower Body: RoC Cobra commander+spacer Arms/upper legs: RoC Elite Viper Lower legs: RoC Neo Viper Feet: RoC Accelerator Snails Codpiece/back: RoC Elite Viper Boosters: Any lightsaber hilts attached with screws More pics here---> Casshern (Movie version) |

Hmmm. Not sold on the overall design (a tad too Sigma Six-ish for my taste), but as always, the level of detail and the technical craft of your custom is off the hook. It just looks so seamless and super clean.

Digging on the Battle armor CC. I think the cape is unnecessary... though he'd have a special one made that wrapped around his neck simply because he's that pretentious

I've seen Casshern and your custom is nearly dead on! You did a great job on him.
It is 100x better than the official one released by Takara |
