I recently saw a custom Lara Croft picture on the web: Some guy, a lot more talented than me, took a new female Lanard Corps figure and did some molding, some painting-- his looked excellent, his Lara is in the skimpy shorts, tank top, and all, but I don't mold and don't paint so well. Instead, I started messing around with the figure, pulling legs and heads off. The female legs are easily taken off the ball joints. I liked the look of the flat green pants on the "Ogre" figure, so I ripped them off and then drilled holes into them. Presto, right onto the ball joints. A bit of paint on the details. My version of Lara is in long pants. Oh, word to the wise! I HATE the CORPS branding on all the figures, but a little rub a dub with some sand paper takes the lettering right off. That goes for all the Lanard figures too. Funny thing, a few years ago I sold my entire Corps collection and all my little Joes at a tag sale. As a compromise with my wife, I said was only keeping the 200+ 12 inch figures and the boxes of accessories. BUT, I recently started buying up Corps figs from Evil Bay. I'm next working on a MacGuyver custom. Going to get back into dioramas too. AND! Have started amassing a decent collection of Call of Duty Megablok figures. Find me on FLIKR: mike adib. Here's Lara.
