Here's the Destro I really wanted to make when I made this one earlier. I had chickened out because I got the base figure before it hit retail and I didn't want to screw it up much. Now, there's plenty around so I decided to finally finish it up. I'm glad I did because I much prefer this to how it was.
The arms required some modification (mostly sanding and trimming) to not look like they did originally, and there are a few other tweaks and add-ons to get it all looking how I wanted. The collar, part of the necklace, and the lower forearms come from one of my 25th Destro figures.

looks very good, it doesnt look like a custom it just looks like a production figure i mean that in a good way. and certainly looks better than any they have released.

OUTSTANDING on BOTH!!!
I see a little Terry Savalas--lol--but it's still the perfect head. Awesome job. This beats the vault offerings, IMO.

Once again you have inspired me to do more. Your work is beautiful and top notch. I've been planning a Destro myself and you've given me some ideas.
