Here's a figure I finished up a few days ago. Wanted to update the character of Major Bludd - all of the 25th releases have been garbage as far as I'm concerned. I was inspired by a few excellent customs that I've seen on here, but wanted to put my own spin on it as well.
I thought the face sculpt looked a little younger, so went with an earlier iteration of the character. Also went with a "just-now-robotic-prosthetic-enhanced" look for his arm. I assumed he had got in the good graces of Cobra by his persistence on the battlefield coping with a major injury... Just an idea of a little backstory -- -- but who cares about that?! LOL here's the pics: Edit: Just to clarify my back story, as there seemed to be a little confusion -- - this is meant to be an earlier version of Bludd, thus the lower rank of Captain. I wanted his injury/sacrifice in the field to be part of the reason he was promoted to Major.

I like the idea of this poors sod finally getting a rank promotion. Very interesting design, love the removeable helm, the removeable beret and the use of the Resolute Destro robo arm!

Griff, thanks for the kind words! The arm is actually from one of the Force Unleashed Star Wars figures from a few years back. I came really close to using the Resolute Destro arm, but wanted it to look a little more human than complete machine.
Thanks again!

This is fantastic. That mustache is ridiculously cool. I like all the accessory choices you made nicely done. I'd maybe like to see the bionic arm black as well?
