That looks great. I've never seen a Red Skull figure in any store, or else I'd have done the same. I wonder how the Retaliation Hiss Tank Cobra Commander head would look on that?

So the term LBC is Low Budget Custom or the more crude term, Lazy Bastard Custom and it involves a head and/or gear swap...interesting, I gather? The term Kit-Bash involves multiple parts from multiple figures...OK, I guess.
I'm just going to call an LBC a Low Budget Custom aka Kit-Bash (as not all of us are fortunate to be in the top 1% of the customizers) and have it involving part swapping not limited to one or two part swaps. Paint work with or without retooling via a Dremel on a Kit-Bash/LBC make it a full-blown Custom. Back on topic, though...dremel out the head a bit so it fits better. Maybe slap some grey on the helmet and some red or silver or grey on the legs (realistically speaking, of course) to accent them and tie it all together to take it to a while new level. Good start though!!

The HISS Tank Commander's head is too big for the Red Skull body. The RS figure is actually pretty short - he's shorter than the original 25th Cobra Commander but taller than 25th Tunnel Rat (which is also why I didn't want the head to sit any lower than necessary).

All my customs are LFBC...
(figure it out) Nice work! Too bad the body is so short because it would also look like a good platform for a Destro. Regardless, pretty cool use of a discounted figure. |

Looks great none the less. Shame on Hasbro for not even making a decent Retaliation Cobra Commander. SHAME SHAME!!
