Hey thanks! I have used this head combo on a couple other figures in this thread, notably the G.I. Joe Estrela - "Albatroz" homage I did in 2021, & also my 2023 homage to Vor-Tech's "Jeremy *Gear Head* McMasters," (but only I'm gonna remember that with how long this thread is lol.) Thanks for the kind words & checking in!

Ha ha, yeah I know this "Chinatown" series won't be for everyone, but I have to say, it's been a real joy for me to try & recreate these wacky figures! Thanks for coming back to the thread Cap!
For those curious, next month's drop will be a different "one-off" themed drop based on a 2023 movie... There are 3 more "Chinatown" drops already in the works, & we also have some more G.I. Joe themed drop(s) planned for the summer. I think they'll be something for everyone.

Thanks bro, he has been the most popular on socials too! I kinda figured he would be, being the most military looking overall with that hint of sci-fi!

C.B. McHaul! That's an obscure line.

Seriously, SB, these are so cool. I'm sorry I haven't had the chance to do a lot of commenting, but....Waterbug is just the coolest. Love that helmet mask combo. Colecovision is one of my favs of yours. I love it. He reminds me of that figure from the late 70's from Ideal. Star Team Knight of Darkness.

Love your Karate Chump too. Your imagination runs wild. Your bios are still great, I am glad you keep adding them in. Now when can I expect Jim Oakes the truck puncher (complete with ninja sword)?

[A.V.A.C.]

Wow SB, these are awesome! I loved the use of the parts man, I wasn't expecting such obscurity, I love it!! Very clever. I like helping you with your parts because they're always going to end up on great creations!

I've been a hermit, I need to check in here more, lol.

Robocop and the Future Police.

Yay! More Sucklords!
I Usually favor the ladies when you make a drop but The Waterbug is definitely an awesome build. Keep cranking em out SB!

These are all great, SB! This line has turned out to be so much fun. Waterbug is of course, a standout in this line, but I think my favorite is Colecovision. Great use of that CG Immortal head.
I am sorry I have not posted before now (we had a death in the family).

Always love seeing you here Itch! You're "Right on" about the "Knight Of Darkness" reference, that's perfect! Thanks I like that Karate Chump figure too, as there was a couple unknowns with the new pieces fitting when putting him together! Thanks for still reading the bios, they've been here since the beginning, & I feel it gives the thread a fun extra something if you enjoy reading them.

So great to hear from you in here buddy! Your catalog has been the "secret sauce" as to creating so many of my recent waves. I have 3 more Chinatown/Sucklord waves in the works already, & you have been integral with everything that's coming up! Thanks again, hope to see you around these parts more often with some more great customs!

Robocop and the Ultra Police... Oh I think those could be done with Marauder stuffs, you would need some custom heads/helmets, & would have to be creative with the gear. Maybe some paint work for added accuracy (if you really wanted too... like Nitro's pants or Headhunter's hair.) Also certain things would have to come back in stock at MGR, (like the yellow "Shock-Ops" bodies for Birdman Barnes.) There's even a gal in there with Officer Anne Lewis! It would be a great 10 figure project for someone to tackle. ;-)

No worries buddy, I'm so sorry for your loss!
Yes, this line has been some of the most fun I've had building which is why it went from 2-3 waves to 6 waves quickly in the planning process lol! I really like ColecoVision too, his head+soft goods combo is a real winner for me! Thanks for checking in!
