A few months ago, I fixed up an X-Force version of Spiral. Had so much fun, I really wanted to go back and try out her classic design. Never was a huge fan of it, but I figured it was worth a shot. Head was a bit rough to work out, but finally opted to try Elektra.
Dremeled into the body to fit two other sets of arms. Sculpted up the fur on her lower legs, and then reworked the Elektra head a bit. Cut off the straps and a portion of the hair. Sculpted up the helmet with some plastic used for the spiked portion. Added a couple of cast pouches to her belt, then gave her a full repaint. A few random swords, and done! Happy to have her done, but I really want to fix up her X-Force design again. Recipe: Base, Arms - MU Valkyrie Head - MU Elektra Swords - various Pouches - cast

Both figures are very good. However, I'm really digging that Spiral.

Pure awesome! Spiral is in my top 3 wants for The Marvel Universe line and on my top 5 Marvel Hotties list. I stumped Akinator with Spiral! Damned program got Stansfield from the Professional but didn't get Spiral!
Great job by the way. With Hasbro cutting costs on these guys, ie removing the ab crunch, I doubt they'd put in the tooling costs to make her. I think the line has lasted as long as has because of how much reuse Hasbro has been able to use. I'm not holding my breadth for Spiral or Mojo.

I've been scratching my head about how to work a Spiral with 2 extra sets of arms. Guess you solve it first.
Congrats! She looks amazing! |
