THE ORIGINAL POST REMAINS BELOW. SEE P.2 FOR A REVISED FIGURE
Nightwing is one I've been planning on for a long time. Since I still prefer even my heroes to mostly be more Joe scaled than MU scaled (with exceptions), finding the right parts was tough. He had to be bigger than my Robin, shorter than Batman, and be dressed in a way that evoked more than just images of spandex. Then I found Retaliation Zartan. Really was just what I needed. The legs didn't work - too tall, and unarticulated. So I swapped those for Retaliation Snake Eyes. Little bit of paint here and there (the chest emblem largely just matches the existing sculpt), and I think it's good. I might get a second head and sculpt on a mask. But for now, since I prefer unmasked for some guys, he'll just use the removable goggles (unless the majority view is that they look goofy).

Awesome. I started painting my Ret Zartan this last weekend for my Nightwing custom. I may steal your idea for the legs too. I agree that the ones that come on Zartan make him a lot taller.

thanks for the comments. I'm still considering better goggles also.

Nightwing looks great. Robin and Batman aren't as good, but Nightwing is sweet.
