Figures Funskool Fridays! Interesting Colors - Cobra by OB

OreoBuilder · 10-09-2015, 02:02 PM

Every Friday in October, tune in for more custom Funskool figures.

Part 2: Cobra Interesting Colors

Buzzer
Red Buzzer is one of the rarer Funskool figures. The red shirt and brown hair set him apart from his North American version somewhat. I had a pretty complete 25th Buzzer disassembled in my fodder bins, so I took a crack at it.

Lower arms: 25th 5-pack (3rd) Storm Shadow
Everything else: 25th Buzzer

Major Bludd
Blue and yellow Major Bludd is another figure that is considered pretty rare. I like how the Funskool version uses the V1 mold, but the Sonic Fighters color scheme. For that reason, he was high on my to-do list.

All: 25th Extreme Conditions Major Bludd

Ripper
Like red Buzzer, purple Ripper is pretty hard to find for Funskool collectors. Since I had a spare 25th ‘’Fred Flintstone’’ Ripper, I thought I would give Buzzer a Funskool partner.

All: 25th Ripper

Wild Weasel
Although he looks similar to his 25th version, I completely repainted Wild Weasel for the Funskool version. Besides the yellow and blue, the red is also a shade lighter and brighter.

All: 25th Wild Weasel

Sweet! They look awesome!

As bright as the originals were, I wouldn't mind having these modern versions in my collection. Excellent job!

No prob... I find it's better when dealing with a bunch of customs at once. I want to start showcasing customs and customizers more on HissTank while we're in a bit of a product lull.

A cobra blue Maj. Bludd only makes sense. Great job on all these customs.

Neat, I like Ripper the most...

Thank you for doing these customs. They are awesome, you do a kick ass job. It's so awesome to see these as modern updates. Very inspiring, I might try a few of these myself.
