Jin Saotome says
"The attack was sudden and destructive, our MOBAT tanks and Armadillos being tossed about like tin cans. That's when we saw what was doing the damage. It was a single soldier calling himself 'Gutsman'. After a long battle Rock and Protoman were able to drive him into a retreat. We later learned that Zartan had stolen our plans so that Cobra could create dimensional gateways too. Beings known as Repliods were joining their side under control of a mad doctor that Cobra Commander had formed an alliance with...some fellow named Wiley."
This figure was made from:
Head/body: Resolute Destro
Arms: Armored Core figure
Helmet: Duke Helmet
Hands: Gigantor

"The phrase 'out of the frying pan and in to the fire' was never more true than with our most recent battle with the mysterious Reploid forces that Cobra and Dr Wiley were mounting against us. This hot-headed fellow gave Barbecue and Blowtorch a hard time with super-heated plasma flames, melting his way through the PIT's defenses. Suddenly there was a burst of light and the slashing of metal, someone cutting through Fireman's armor and sending him running. Whoever saved the day must have been using a sword that burned hotter that that guy's flames. Let's hope he's on our side!"
This figure was made from:
Head/body: Resolute Destro
Head: Copperhead
Body: Maverick, Wolverine Origins
Arm cannons: Bumblebee Animated boosters
Backpack: Danger Girl's Major Maxim
Head flame: Marvel Universe Mrs Marvel
Arm flames: 2x Rhaziel NECA Player Select

I love the megaman customs. I never got to play the game as a kid but I am now playing them on Nintendo8's site. I'm a big fan of the art direction and like to see them in the Joe scale. Awesome work, very original parts choices. Would love to see more and a dio maybe?

Wow, these really bring me back. I remember playing the original "Rockman" on the Super Famicom when I was a kid. Great job updating these characters as GI Joe-themed custom figures.
