Like many others, I was a bit disappointed with the Club's Iceberg figure and had to do some alterations. Here's my take:
I trimmed the "shoulders" off the fur collar, added a repainted lower jacket (took forever to paint match, and it's still a slight shade off...looks better in person than in the pics), and most importantly, got rid of the terrible vintage head and replaced it with a Renegades Ripcord with sculpted hair and a cast hat/goggles from the vintage head sculpt (non-removable). I'm pretty happy with how he turned out. |

That Ripcord head and other modifications make him look 1000 times better. Great job!

Thanks guys. A little work on him pays off. I was seriously contemplating selling him when he first arrived and just customizing a new Iceberg from scratch, but after seeing a lot of the great fix-ups on here, I knew the club's figure was salvageable. I'm just really hoping that Cross Country turns out exactly how the photoshop/proto image looks.
