Well why we are waiting on classfied GI Joes and reveals from hasbros Licensees,
Figured I?d keep the trend of updated and reimagining of Joes alive by venturing into figures who don?t have a lot of variants . Billy Kessler is one of those guys. I appreciate the concept of him . Kid with dad problems looking to prove himself. He isn?t a favorite of mine, but he might be one of your all?s , so I added a very much needed reimagining across the board while honoring little nods to his comic art. As you can see, bionic leg since he lost his ( Griff approved) , all hand painted, real materials here and there. Just a fun character to update. Here is Billy Arboc Kessler: Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr Untitled by Slice's Customs, on Flickr

Ooohh that’s nice!! This is what I’m talking about! Beautiful reimagining of said character. Love the effect of the mechanical leg and this is also the first time I see this head for a Billy custom. Flawless!!

Love that robotic leg and the way the pants cut off just above the right knee.
Whose head was it?

That's the best Billy I've ever seen. It does look like you were able to capture what someone would look like growing up knowing that your dad is the leader of a worldwide terrorist organization.
