I was just checking out Rock & Roll on my desk, with red hair and beard and some shades, wouldn't that head make a decent Monkeywrench? He's out now in the re-release wave, so I may have to grab an extra, or use that god-awful comic pack version with the Tiger stripes down the road, once it's released... Seems like it'd work, right?
I have an extra set or 2 of Aviator shades from that hideous Mutt Williams figure, who I stole the bikes from for my Dreadnoks... I was going to use his "vest" (chest part of the jacket) anyways and paint it red, but the Wild Bill vest works really well too. And I just gave away one of my extra Destros, too. I could have stolen the grenades from him! |

that sounds like a perfect monkeywrench (I don't think I've seen him done with that head before either)

Well, it turns out Rock & Roll's head looks a little tiny... Not too bad, but Wild Bill and Rock both have hats/helmets to offset their tiny heads, so they don't look that big...
The 2 CP Dreadnoks have freaking HUGE melons, if you actually compare them... They also have weird neck posts that don't quite sit right with other heads (or maybe Rock & Roll's head has a high ball pit, not sure which)... Torch's head looks funny on Bazooka's body, like a big gay guy from the 80s getting ready to work out. Also, I mixed the Dreadnok's limbs up a little... so that I used Torch's upper arms and torso and lower legs, but Ripper's lower arms, and upper legs... The only thing I don't like about it so far is that "Monkeywrench" is missing his upper leg holster and instead has 2 big cargo pockets, but the thing I don't like about Torch's thighs is the thing on his left leg... Mixing one left leg and one right leg also doesn't look right due to that giant pouch, so I may have to play around with it some... But I was trying to mix up the legs so that the 2 CP Noks don't look too close to the custom Monkeywrench... I'll post some WIP pics whenevever I can, it's not painted and missing some pieces, but you can see what I'm talking about... I do think if you swapped Ripper's lower arms and painted the right hand black, it'd look more like Monkeywrench's arms, and it's a pretty easy swap, with the hot-water-and-pop method... Yours still looks good, the glasses look really good too, since they're molded... I'm a little worried that getting glasses on Rock's head will look like shop goggles... |

Hope to see urs when its done brother oh yea and for that thing on torchs leg that sticks out i cut that off and plan on puttin a gun holster on it like the OG Fig also i think wild bills head works fine but if you want more hair id get scuplty or green stuff and add that on witch would make the head larger at the same time and for the neck i had to make the head hold on bills head more deep so it wouldnt stick up so high
