Figures Backhawkdown’s Classified Customs Master Thread

ARBCO Avenue · 03-02-2021, 04:06 PM

Tons of work put in everywhere but my favorites so far are Burnout, CLAWS, and Darklon. For The Cobra insignia on Ghost Bear’s abdomen gets an honorable mention as well. Topside is solid - Great work as always, blackhawkdown! It’s great to see them all in one thread - Keep ‘em coming!

I initially wasn’t that into Classified at first reveal and figured I’d just buy them for my boy to play with as well. Customizing them changed that for me; but they are definitely very playable figures for kids.

So much noticeable work and solid representations that I would love to add to my collection. Awesome vision to design this many different characters with the available parts. Gridiron steals the show for me. Can’t wait to see what else you drop and I’ll be keeping me eye on this.

Thank you! Figuring out which characters will work with the few base figures available is certainly part of the fun.

Fun backstory if you’re interested; Burnout actually started as Darklon — I tried engraving the cross-hatched pattern on the torso instead of sculpting it, but after butchering it I needed a character that Had a shirt that would be simple to sculpt to cover it. There is still a bit of a “scar” on the visible part of his chest from my poor dremel work which works for the character.

wow.

these are fantastic, and how you got enough "stock" to work on? again, I say wow.

the work you put in and the time frame?, you deserve a major award.
