Quick one. How I fixed that Heavy Metal figure I bought off Chinese sellers for $3.40?
I replaced the Kermit legs with ROC Grunt legs (thank you buddy Mermaniel), match the paint for the Speedo and change that dog paw left hand with I forget what. Anything's better. Also switched the jacket with Indy Mutt figure. A little paint & Bob's yer uncle. I know I painted it different but this headsculpt is so Charles Bronson! It works for me. Thanks for scoping! Milt

Nothing?
No love at all? I thought he went from mediocre to acceptable. Not even a "Nice painted shotgun" or "worst poll ever"??? *sigh*

I would have to agree with the odinson I don't know what you started with to see the improvement. I do say that your custom looks good though.

I'm thinking of putting Maiden decals on his jacket or maybe "Peace sells" on his helmet...

I don't have this figure, so he's not in my Joe-verse, but if he was he'd be Heavy Metal. And your version is a vast improvement on the original. Now he seems ready to drive a Joe tank.
