Well, my first official custom: the (Interim) Battle Android Trooper, or i.B.A.T.! The fiendish product of the most advanced cybernetics research that exceedingly little money could buy!
"'scuse me, have you seen any fleshlings?" "You think you're gonna make a slave of the world... I'll see you in Hell first!"—Beverly Garland, It Conquered the World (1956) Recipe: Base figure, a "Terminator: Salvation" T-600 (head removed, arms re-attached at better angles); water-heater casing made out of a WalMart Christmas cranberry-scent bottle; arms of chromed flexible plastic tubing, and a lot of sculpey, paint, waterslide printer decals, and bits and pieces of plastic. This all probably cost more than the original robot costume that inspired it...without adjusting for inflation. Eh? |

I really, really love it! Excellent design and something I'd probably buy.

Danger! Danger Cobra Commander!
It's weird but I like it because of the 1950's crappy sci-fi movie look. Just don't let all the space/Star Brigade haters near it. |

Like others have said, very classic sci-fi look.
Kinda steampunkish too, great job! |
