Hello! I'm Erik! You may know me from
my Adventure People customs
or some of my posts to the Marauder and MoJoes Facebook groups, where I post a lot of my custom figures.
I've enjoyed my brief time here on the Tank, and wanted to update my posts to include some of my more recent GI Joe-related projects. I started customizing action figures at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic (alas, too late to join in on the fun contests going on here at the time), and was inspired by the vibrant creative community here to try my hand and more and more ambitious projects as time went by.
With about a dozen finished or almost-finished customs based on the old Fisher Price Adventure People under my belt, the old nostalgia for my true favorite childhood toy line--GI Joe--got stronger and stronger. Eventually, I knew I wanted to transition from the Adventure People to GI Joe. I was nervous about jumping directly to some of my favorite characters, however, and decided to first approach the 1970s GI Joe Adventure Team as a way to develop my technique and parts knowledge before trying the really tough stuff.
Many of the Adventure Team characters have relatively simple outfits and limited gear, so I thought this would be a great place to start.
This thread will contain images of all my GI Joe Adventure Team customs, hopefully eventually including the 20+ 1970s-era villains I have assembled but not yet painted.
Enjoy!
