Hi guys and gals! I just wanna say thanks for all of the great replies I get here sharing non-Joe stuff. It's cool and always motivates me to swing by and share any projects, like this one,the current-look cat-face version of Hank McCoy, The ever lovin' Beast!

When my loyal customer requested this figure, it really threw me. I literally had no clue how to go about it. The SS version wouldnt work as a base for this look, so I was clueless. I thought about buying a plastic cat toy and cutting off the head, I thought about trying to remold the animated figure (BAD idea, that figure has TERRIBLE articulation) and who knows WHAT else. After brainstorming for a couple of days, I stumbled across what would become the body: A Mark Henry WWE figure. It had the right body type, big, not fat, strong yet not chisled. I cut off his toes and fingers. I sanded his poor wittle face right down. He got a bit of a shave and hair cut, then I went to work with Apoxie Sculpt, forming new feet, fingers, face, ears, hair and fur all over his body. A few coats of paint later and x-symbols later and voila. It's pretty much a cross between his last two costumes. The current one was way too complicated for me to invest that kind of time into, and the last one always looked kinda creepy to me, so here's a good blend of the two. He has removable goggles, a high tech med-pistol of some sort, a wrist package complete with retractable saw and the techy backpack. Please do let me know any critisicms or critiques you may have. Thanks! IS aka Sentinel Prime |

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuude, you're like in my head. I literally just last night stumbled across this figure and bought two, one for the express purpose of making Beast, though I'm probably going to go with the Cassaday AXM version. Awesome work! I love it!

From the first pic I was thinking that was a Grinch (Jim Carrey) head. Looks just like it. Nice work on this. The BnB Wrestling line is a gold mine of custom fodder. I found a few at an out of the way WM last night for $3 each.
