I hate the 25th Anniversary Zartan figure. Not because it isn't a good design, because it is (even though I'm not a fan of anything DD inspired). But if you're going to produce the original YMCA Shipwreck and original Dreadnok's, the new design just doesn't flow with the other figures imo. That said, it did supply me with the parts to make a Zartan that I feel fits in better with his Dreadnok brethren....
Pretty simple and straight forward. Haven't decided whether or not I'm going to sculpt the shoulder pads, so this might end up being an early comic version Zartan ;) Best part was the Zartan head's skin tone almost perfectly matched Gung Ho's zombie complexion. |

Perfect use of arms. Now not only do ripper and buzzer have the same, and so do torch and zartan.

Did you have to modify Gung Ho's stomach at all to get the chest to fit? I might track down a single-pack Gung Ho for this.
EDIT: I see now that you didn't use the Zartan chest at all. Tricky. |

MUCH better than that horror story the call this new figure.
i also HATE the 25th Zartan, it is pathetically horrible, worst of the line by far. that one is beautiful, only if those eyes were perfect.... |
