I wasn't happy with the offering of Spirit that we got with the new PoC line so I gave him the "treatment." I corrected his eyes so that he no longer looks like he has been affected by Crystal Ball, and gave his bow a string ala fishing line. I like the impact armor look personally, as it gives the Joe team a more uniform look imo. Swapping out the lower legs for the Wolverine Sabretooth ones was a bit of a chore as I had to dremel them out to get the knee joints to line up with the pin holes. I thought Duke's webgear looked a lot nicer on Spirit too, and I snipped the knife sheath turning it into the axe holder instead.
Recipe: Head, arms, upper legs= PoC Spirit Torso, webgear= PoC Duke Lower Legs= Wolverine Origins Sabretooth Feet= RoC HD

Thanks for the compliment! Yeah I was fortunate enough to happen upon him just 2 days ago myself.

Very nice work. I found mine about a week ago, first time I saw them hanging at a Toys R Us.
I like how you brought in elements of the original figure's coloring with the blue shirt and tan pants. Nice way to touch back to the original |

It is actually a very, very good take on the Sigam 6 Spirit Iron Knife - that is a compliment, by the way. Less comic-manga and more realistic.

Stronox, this is awesome as usual. The face looks great and the paint work is top notch as always. I like all of the modifications especially the bowstring. Now don't get mad at me on this one (LOL), but compound bows have several strings. I know I'm nitpicking like a mo on this one, but I've included a picture. Don't hate me on this one. This custom is awesome!

That is not an action figure, it's a work of art. This is by far one of the best paint jobs I've ever seen. Major kudos to you for such a great job.
