I remember about 6 or 7 years ago there used to be a site that sold gi joe casts replicas of weapons, heads and other accessories.
I know they were shut down, but i wonder if anyone still makes weapon molds? I'm specifically looking for replicas of the 1986 B.A.T's weapons. Thanks! |

Only things I know of are custom weapons/accessories, not ones Hasbro made, likely due to legal reasons.

I remember that site.
I forget their name. They sold many replica items, but sadly, they were told to stop by Hasbro. They had some sort of modular base/stands set in the works. I do know that the people behind it sort of got busy with other stuff as well. |

I think they were called J&R customs or something like that. I liked the Bat chest piece they created. Like others have said, they and others like them were closed down for making reproductions.
It would be pretty cool if Hasbro started doing this for older figures, but I'm sure the cry of outrage from fans would kill it. I figure a lot of them would have issues with the fact that their collections would start to loose value (However, I don't see it happening as much with the Transformers toys) |

I believe they were shut down by Hasbro much like Rick McMaster was for his card backs
