Wow, brilliant custom!
Has dusty become a hostile enviroment trooper? or did he recruit airtight? Or is he a new recruit? Desert Storm? Sand Storm? Sandy? Well whatever you call him, he is a piece of work. Good Job! |

Nice, but I'm tired of seeing customs. I mean, it ruins the whole point of collecting I think. Adding some accessories is fine but making a whole new figure,meh, it loses its authenticity, imo.

It's the fun of it that counts. It doesn't ruin the point of collecting. It's more like an art project. Customs are cool creations that show off talent and originality. If you don't appreciate customs, than don't post on the customs board; there's plenty of people who love customizing and collect. When you make a custom it isn't about authenticity. I could care less about how authentic it is, y'know? Cause it's not like customs are going to be sold in collectable stores 25 years from now. They're fun pieces of art. So ruining the whole point of collecting, that's out the window. It enhances collecting. Helps make some useless repaints into something awesome.

I really like this. Pretty realistic and creative with some nice work involved, but the final product had a nice simple streamlined look. And it still looks like a Joe toy, which always makes a winner to me.

To the trained eye this thing is oozing authenticity, can't compare this to something a factory made 75,000 of, IMO.
