Figures Retro Scrap Iron & Baroness

Hard-er Master · 12-06-2022, 11:20 AM

Almost done with my original Cobra Command lineup, here's Retro inspired Scrap Iron & Baroness!

Scrap Iron would've been a great Retro Figure IMO, and this figure came together pretty quickly once I figured out the Missile Launcher:

And Baroness was surprisingly more work than I expected; I sculpted the reticulated parts of her armor and made her a bit more robust than the 50th version to go with the beefier Retro designs:

Ebay (1 week only!)
Baroness: 175520673881
Scrap Iron: 175520678981

Enjoy!!

These are awesome. I get a distinct Joytoy vibe from them.

I second that. Scrap Iron is one of my very favorite Cobra OG?s. Lotta good memories of going to K-Mart when I was a kid and ogling the overstuffed G.I.Joe aisle (yes, the entire aisle) and pining for all the ?84 guys. I gravitated toward Scrap Iron cuz of that launcher.

Nice work on both of these HM! Gotta agree, that Scrap-Iron is tops, possibly the best I've seen, custom or otherwise!

I remember my brother having Scrap iron, and I really liked his launcher; I was tempted to use it for this project... Thanks again!
