Woo hoo! Big brawlin' thanks Nok! Quote:

All very cool! I had done an MTF Bison a little ways back; I used the German cap, and wound up padding the interior with a bit of e-tape to get it to fit on the "trooper" head.
Also, I didn't realize until now that my old Night Fighter Guile came with a completely different helmet than yours or the sample on Yojoe.com. I don't have him any more so I can't compare exactly whose it was, but it was more like Duke (v3) in black. Thanks as always Cap! Thanks Griff! I used an Avac's cast called the Mortal Kombat "Raidin Chest." It's an interesting piece as it's slightly tacky to form fit the figure, but as you can see its short for a MGR buck, but the added belt solves that! ;-) Quote:
Happy birthday, SB!
My gosh, I love ALL OF THESE! Just seeing them brings back so many memories. My buddy was actually a mortician. We used to play SNES Street Fighter II in the mortuary office while my buddy was in the back working on the recently deceased. Okay, okay. So, I love your drop. I pass over that Mortal Kombat chest piece all the time and wonder what it actually looks like on a figure. Turns out it looks great. Also, with Balrog, love the leg-ammo. I have been wanting to make a Salvo, but have too scared to try the legs. And is that a Sentinel head? Did you take a DeLorean back to go get it? Night Fighter Guile! I had him! Yours is so cool. I want to make one now. And good choice on using the black dress shirt. Smart. Wow! Thanks Ax buddy, I'll remember this kind gesture & will return the favor in the future! |

[QUOTE=Steel Brigade;5801268][B]518. ZINGER ZED (Inspired by the anime Mazinger Z)
I commented on FB, but man this is by far my favorite custom you have done. Every morning before school I would watch Tranzor Z. I loved it! I would talk about Tranzor Z when other kids mentioned Voltron of course it never caught on like Voltron so I was always odd man out when it came to giant robots. Love the Street Fighter stuff too. I need to go back and catch up on everything that you've dropped over the last several months.

NEW RECRUITS!!!!!
WAVE 106: 526. SHADOW w/(POWER TEAM ELITE/MGR) MOTORCYCLE w/SIDECAR (Inspired by Larry Hama's "Fury Force") Marauder Task Force affiliate/Fury Force Origin: Israel MTF SEASON 2 AKA: Lila Galil *2020~2023/24 Lost Waves Figure #15 Shadow has the privilege of being my longest "on hold" figure, when I bought parts for her back in 2020, but ended up having to wait on her chosen MTF "Christina" head until release in 2023... By then her gray lower legs (& waist) had been donated to another "cop" themed figure (#318. CONSTABLE DAIYU), & a replenishment of those MGR Valk gray parts (have still) never came. It ended up being a blessing, as they were replaced by the "Stealth-Ops Mark II" lowers which I like more and matched her top half... even her (yellow) hair! It also gave me the chance to give her the PTE motorcycle that MGR sells... I know most interpretations have her in all green, but I figured a character named "Shadow" should be in black & grays. Larry Hama suggested her hair be red as she was the precursor for Scarlett, but I like the blonde that is usually chosen by fans for her color scheme more, as it separates her a bit from her replacement. BIO: An immigrant from Israel, SHADOW was a women's Judo coach until an Iranian hostage crisis changed her priorities. She joined the Army, Military Police Corps, then worked in Intelligence, and met NICK FURY JR. on a tracking mission... 13 missions together later, they were married. When she landed a spot on NICK'S FURY FORCE special ops team, she had one condition: anything involving motorcycles... was hers. EXTRA: 44. (2024 REDO) STEELER (Inspired by Larry Hama's "Fury Force") Marauder Task Force affiliate/Fury Force Origin: United Kingdom MTF SEASON 2 Sometimes you look back on your older figures, and enough new parts or new build ideas come in and you want to do redo, Steeler here was high on that list, & I said I'd get to rebuilding him when SHADOW was done, so here we are (I may redo "Spook" sometime too.)Only kept his head & T-shirt torso, the rest I changed out.It's funny with the SAS cap from Avac's (which is what it looks like he has in his 1 drawing) & the bullet belts, he looks more like Big Ben than his replacement(s) Steeler/Rock N' Roll... BIO: STEELER may come off as a bit slow, but he put himself through collage after working as a roadie, followed by entering the service. After that he became a military contractor taking on some of the toughest missions that the government would rather send an expendable out to clean up, but STEELER always came back. He was often used by SGT. FURY JR. for secret missions and then became a full time member of FURY FORCE. Like the other members of FURY FORCE their role was a precursor to the expanded secret military service that is now known (off the books) as the "Marauder Task Force." STEELER often likes to challenge the other MTF members to feats of strength or stamina. Last edited by Steel Brigade; 10-21-2024 at 10:26 AM.. |

527. WRECKAGE (JUNGLE-OPS. VER.) w/POWER TEAM ELITE ATV QUAD (Inspired by Classified "Tiger Force Wreckage")
G.I. Joe Origin: USA 'NAM 19XX I had bought the PTE ATV from the MGR site & it took me awhile to figure out a driver... then Classified released TF Wreckage w/the Tiger Paw ATV & I found my direction. I really wanted him to have the tan skull mask reflected on the Classified, which required a race change, no worries lol, I like variety in the ranks. I already did the OG Sabertooth version of Wreckage in my MTF Universe using the Spec-Ops body so I wanted to change it up by using the Jungle-Ops body to give the same flavor but match the ATV. A friend of mine who saw both the Classified version and my version side by side said he actually liked my version better as it wasn't such "crazy colors" lol. BIO+: WRECKAGE perfected his craft at the Army Jungle Warfare Training Center, where he served as a member of the "Opposing Forces" cadre. As such, he learned to use unorthodox methods to eliminate enemy forces, and a ferocious combination of fighting styles in close quarter combat, earning him his code name. He was quickly moved to the G.I. JOE team so his natural destructive skills could be utilized to neutralize enemy saboteur. Now working as a team lead for the "Bamboo Brigade" on the 'Nam attack on CRIMSON MOON, WRECKAGE is there to diffuse the enemy before reinforcements arrive... |

528. INQUISITOR (based on G.I. Joe ARAH Interrogator '91)
Wrath Origin: unknown Season 10: Wet World *MTF "Geared Up" figure+ "Inquisitor" Great offering from MGR, not sure I could build a better one from scratch. I filled all the plugs on this one (as MGR does not) but otherwise left him as is. A favorite of my brothers & I during our childhood adventures... He was like the Boba Fett of Cobra for us lol... BIO+: INQUISITOR is easily one of the most frightning WRATH agents among the evil organization. His past is a subject of much speculation. No one knows what he truly looks like or how he does what he does. Some think he may have been head of security for a deposed Third World dictator or a clinical psychologist in another life. What is known is that he coaxes information off his prisoners by simply talking to them. Anyone who witness this will claim that it is as if he does it by magic. Those who know better will suspect his helmet contains electronic devices such as a voice modulator/synthesizer that works with a trance-inducing LED display. The baritone voice lulls his captors into a hypnotic state and make them susceptible to his inquiries. If there are any prisoners who prove to be resistant to his spell, he would just as gladly use more extreme and physical methods. He also is an expert helicopter pilot, often taking the lead of the Wrath hierarchy during evacuation events. |

529. KEKKO KAMEN w/1976 VESPA 200 RALLY (based on the Japanese manga/anime/live action series "Kekko Kamen")
Independent Origin: Japan *Last seen in 2012... *Go Nagai character #4 New characters! New nudes! LOL! I was first subjected to the world of Kekko Kamen from the anime in the 1990's and also stayed up late with a friend to watch some of the live action films at one of the very first Otakons. Since then, being a big Go Nagai fan, Kekko Kamen has been on my radar for a custom dip, & when discovering the Boss Fight HACKS system (blanks) years ago, she was one of my very first ideas to make as a custom using their figures. It was the rest of her (the clothed parts) that have held her back for me for years, but then I got brainstorming when AVAC Labs reopened & found a way to emulate her scarf and floppy nylon/bunny ears. With her being in my headspace for so long, I wanted to plus her up, so (besides the 2011 Storm Shadow nunchuks), I gave her 1/18 scale Vespa like she has in the 2nd live action series. Although the anime & 2nd live action series has been OOP in North America for a long time, Discotek is releasing the original live action series state-side for the very first time in the near future ... https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Kekko...lu-ray/367609/ And... the most recent movie is still available for those interested... https://www.amazon.com/Mask-Kekko-Reborn-Nozomu-Kasaki/dp/B09P2P7PH5/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2R3OB4Z3O28CA&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.2ic YuVo8LsihaF_ynk42zi7nydmTU6jkhpyqQ4ky2LgE3OIFkBx7P ql-LcQmmw70cqMau1RILIckKqQ6ZlaIvPnpEVe4t-L0hfP7dwhmlLbeRltJGwtoDB3I5q_K8MUhUSVr0m3ck1wy4edP fPPVFmVwxs47S7K4HVsB9zh5rwDkoFihIFFb8t-Nba5BMRuvIXGigkbv_DqzOg9fzGOU0zx5RiEWOBQCaivNaZXkb io.u6cxApwEgOhX-TOC1kkznZehxu4_84y6TJ4qkEGGlxc&dib_tag=se&keywords =kekko+kamen&qid=1729465988&sprefix=kekko+kamen%2C aps%2C100&sr=8-1 BIO+: A student named Mayumi Takahashi, attends a boarding school called Sparta Academy that is run by sadistic psychopaths. The teachers are constantly looking for ways to torture or humiliate the female students, & from this the teachers derive perverse satisfaction. Takahashi's only protection is from a mysterious nude female superhero... the titular KEKKO KAMEN! A nearly nude female superhero dressed only in a red, rabbit-eared mask, with matching gloves, scarf, and boots. She uses her body to distract the usually male enemy teachers that she fights in order to protect Sparta Academy's unfairly punished and harassed students!

530. YOON JI-WOO/OH HYE-JIN (based on the main character in the K-Drama "My Name" ...only on Netflix!)
Dongcheon/Inchang Metropolitan Police (Narcotics Division) Origin: South Korea *Last seen in 2021... AKA: Song Ji-woo On of my favorite K-Dramas is "My Name." It stars Han So-hee as Yoon Ji-wo, a member of Dongcheon syndicate who infiltrates the police force as Oh Hye-jin, seeking revenge for her father's circumstances. The series has a great anti-heroine journey, excellent action sequences, & will keep you engaged, I highly recommend it! I knew I wanted to create a custom of Yoon Ji-Woo after watching the series, the body is a MGR build with a custom hand painted head from my usual team in China. If you like Korean action dramas, give this one a shot! BIO+: YOON JI-WOO'S father has a sudden mishap. She desperately wants to take revenge on whoever is responsible for her father's situation. JI-WOO is taken in by the powerful drug crime gang Dongcheon, led by Choi Mu-jin. With the help of Mu-jin and to uncover the reason for her father's folly, JI-WOO joins the police force & becomes a mole for Dongcheon. JI-WOO, using her fake name OH HYE-JIN, is assigned to work in the drug investigation unit in the Inchang Metropolitan Police Station... |
