When it comes to teams, it's all a matter of which one you personally remember. When it comes to the Masters of Evil, I best remember the team lead by Doctor Octopus. It only lasted like 2 issues, I know, but I read Guardians of the Galaxy all the time. So, whenever I think of the team, I remember that one. Which is also what I most associate Absorbing Man with. Never really cared for him, but I loved his appearances in Agents of SHIELD. So, I started thinking about it and decided he could use an update. A build more appropriate for the character.
I added sculpt to the legs to give them the look of pants, and to his feet to make them into shoes. I cut and glued a Cap belt to him, then added sculpt to the back to round it out. Swapped out the lower arms, then gave him a repaint. Lot of brushing on this guy. Wanted to dry a different flesh tone approach, and wanted to match him to his official figure a bit. To finish him up, I cut that plastic chain off the ball, then attached a proper chain. Much, much better. Recipe: Body - MU Hercules Lower Arms - MU Hyperion Head - MU Absorbing Man Belt - MU Captain America
