I know this is a little off topic for Hisstank....
But I have a Kenner Super Powers Hall of Justice I was thinking of customizing with better paint colors than bright yellow...
...So I was wondering uf anybody out there had already done this, or maybe built one from scratch.
There are so many really talented customizers on here I was just curious if anybody had any thoughts, or suggestions...

If you're going to customize, I guess you can either go with cartoon accurate, totally realistic, or just a more detailed version of the toy colors. Wasn't it basically an official-looking gray-ish or silver/metal color in the show?

I've just often thoughI could do better than the loud primary colors it came in...
What do you think?

That paint bonds with plastic, so you should get good results. I don't know, I wouldn't paint it unless it's in poor condition, but it's your toy, do what makes you happy!

It just looks like something you'd get from McDonalds in the 70's from sending in coupons for 1000 happy meals.
