Well I had to do something to Grand Slam and Crankcase to make them better. Here's Grand Slam:
Crankcase got a more extensive tweek. I switched his over sized melon with Ace's more normal sized head, added Rock N Roll's Helmet and switched out the popeye arms & hands with one of the Twins' arms. I like the Popeye arms on Shipwreck, but not so much on Crankcase. Anyway, here's the pics: Without the helmet he kinda looks like Ed Rooney from Ferris Bueller's Day Off Driving with both hands!

I really like the arm switch. Im not sold on the flash head because even with a mustache and different color hair he still has that crazy look in his eyes.
Im not crazy about the pop eye arms either.

Haha, he does look like Ed Rooney...
i think this head looks miles better than the "Breaker" head...but really, you need to do the Darthbrett eye treatment to him and put the brown line on his upper lid... i also plan to give GS a jet pack once i get jetpack Duke...GS needs a new head BTW |

So is the grand slam's head a complete repaint of Flash or did they at least give him his own head?
Also, I use my Ace head for my Cobra machine gunner. I made a vinyl mask to go over his nose and mouth so all you see are the crazy eyes. It's pretty cool. |

Yes Grand Slam is Flash with different colors (I don't mind this BTW)
Here's Crankcase with more mellow eyes: I was hoping to not have to do it, it's just a pain and I'm lazy but he looks better now Caliburn, We have a thread here somewhere with a few charts showing all the seperate parts of a figure and many different way explained on how to crack the figures open. As for the lower arm swap, hold the elbow under some hot water then pull it out (It'll take a bit of effort) |
