I really do like the Retaliation Budo, but it's just not Budo and I don't like how they cheaped out on the paint apps.
I managed to get a second one so now I have a 30th and Retaliation Budo. For my 30th one, I am still missing his sai so if anyone has a spare one to trade, please let me know and then I can give the short sword back to the Retaliation Budo. For the Retaliation one, I added the paint apps to his uniform that Hasbro missed/skipped doing. I didn't mess with his head though since he'll be displayed with the helmet on anyways.

What head on the 30th? I might copy your idea with the vintage helmet. I do like the Retaliation version, but it's ornate. I like the vintage version a bit more.

Thanks guys. Yeah, it's Hogun, but I had to modify the bun on his hair to fit. Basically, cut most of it off and paint over it.

Yap I'm also using that head for mine. Also had to trim down a bit. Nice work.

Thanks... can anything else be salvaged from that figure for use on Joes? Sorry, I'm unfamiliar with other lines since GI Joe is all I collect and I hate buying a figure for just his head.

I think I saw some Thor stuff at TJ Maxx the other day. I don't collect it so don't know if it is even the same line, but if I ever see a Hogun there, I'm definitely doing this. The original Budo head is just too sad :'(

The Hogun figure was a great idea. As for salvageable parts, he has a good head sculpt, great cape mold, a giant axe and every part of the body has nice armor sculpted, so definitely useable for other ninja or samurai customs
