This custom is based on this figure and is a female version: https://www.yojoe.com/action/03/coils2.shtml
I was elated to get Baroness. Didn't care for her motorcycle though. I was thinking of just selling it, there isn't much of a market for it as I think most people basically, like me, only wanted Baroness. However, the helmet was so cool and I was thinking it was a waste not to use it. Then I remembered that I had a Rita Repulsa body that I got from a seller in China that had no head, hands and feet. It seemed perfect and I raided my spare parts Marvel Legends bin. Now my Cobra C.O.I.L. motorcycle has a rider.

Thanks for the comments. I actually discovered something about the COIL cycle last night when I was playing around.
It can actually stand on it's own without the kickstand. Didn't realize until last night. The wheels actually have flat sections that will hold it in place.

I had to go buy one of those bodies on ebay, but at least I already have the ML parts. I just had the bike sitting on my shelf, but it will definitely look better with a rider. I really love the Cobra helmet and I have been trying to find a body it looks good on.
This was a great idea and I am stealing it. Thanks. |

That's really cool. How did you do the torso and arms? Did you have to split a MTF figure? I really wish changing arms on an MTF figure was easier.

Didn't have to do anything to the figure. Just added the parts.
If anyone is interested in this, just shoot me a PM with offer for the bike and rider. The boots are a little loose though as it was a failed custom experiment.
