I was thinking of doing the same thing, but I have no idea what direction I want to go in. I really like your take. Way better than that lazy Hasbro version.

I just wanted to take the character out of the accelerator suit. my biggest fear is that Hasbro is going to be over using the suits. I really can only handle so much of the suits. I like them but not enough to throw any head on an accelerator suit body and pass it off as an awesome new figure. I hope I gave a bit more character to the character.

I was thinking of the lower arms like an under shirt. I like the way it looks already. Thanks though.

great colors but the size of that head just makes his arms looks tiny.

Kinda. I wanted to use the same head that Hasbro used (Serpentor). It looks a little off I guess. Like a reverse "Greatest Battles" Duke.

I think it looks good. I actually hate that head. Looks like he's lonely. You make it acceptable for me. Except, for when you took the vest off.....then it looked like Bea Arthur. Don't ask me why.....

Oh, but I have seen the military grade under armour shirts that look similar to that, so good job.

Fantastic work (as always) MTN.
I like the desert-camo look. Quote:

Mind you, Speed Metal is the only accelerator suit guy I will be buying, and since he is named "Speed Metal" it makes sense for that to be his trademark when he's integrated with my army of REAL joes |
