One of my favorite villains of the Marvel universe has always been Apocalypse. Ruthless and pure evil, Apocalypse has been the ultimate evil to me. He doesn't seek his own brand of peace, he doesn't seek his own twisted sense of order - he wants unending war and competition to be the best. And as soon as I saw the preview pics of the classic blue Iron Monger from the Iron Man 2 comic line, the first thing I thought of was making Apocalypse.
Now I know that Hasbro is giving us an Apocalypse figure later this year, but 1. I couldn't wait, and 2. I wasn't crazy about the design, so as soon as I found a second Monger figure I went to town. I repainted the Monger with different shades of blues mixed with some boltgun metal black for a more metallic look. I pulled out the chest symbol and was going to sculpt over it, but I found this little blue stone - an accessory from a Stargate figure - and thought it would be a cool piece of the armor to make it slightly more organic and mystical. Next I popped off the head, grabbed an Apocalypse II figure, the old Toy Biz figure with interchangable arms, and transpolanted that to the Monger body and voila - a malevolent self-proclaimed mutant messiah! Thanks for looking and as always comments and critiques are welcome. Last edited by Weapon XIX; 01-18-2011 at 02:21 AM.. |

looks great, the only thing missing is that cheesy A on his belt buckle.
