Yet another Deadpool. This one is loosely based on Deadpool from the Wolverine movie. I say "loosely" based because for one of the alternate heads I used the ML 2 pack Capt. America unmasked head. And I thought it looked a little like Ryan Reynolds. So there's the big connection. OK, the base is a Spiderman 3 New Goblin body. I was originally going to use this for a Sam Fisher custom. And then a Snake Eyes custom. But since there's so many Snake Eyes customs out there and not nearly enough Deadpools, I decided to even the odds ;) The first head, as I mentioned was a Capt. America unmasked head. I'm not completely sold on the hair and I may go back and repaint it. The second is the original New Goblin head, repainted with Deadpool's colors. It already fit on the huge ball joint, so I added it for something different. The third head is the masked Ronin head. Again, repainted in Deadpool's colors, but still different from the standard Deadpool mask. I cut the blades off of right forearm, but was still left with the straps. So rather than dremel them down and resculpt the forearm, I just decided to glue something where the blades used to be. I wanted some type of comunication/small computer-type thing. So I used the cell phone from the Heroes Noah Bennett figure. Too big to use as a standard cell phone for this figure. But perfect for a forearm-communication-computer-type thing. The pistol/holster came from a McFarlane military figure. The rifle came from a McFarlane Al Simmons figure. The shotgun came from a Neca Hitman figure. The sword and sheath came from a Sin City Miho figure with a different handle from the fodder bin. I attached a small peg to the sheath so it can be attached to the hole on the back of the figure or removed. Just wanted a Deadpool in something other than spandex.
Mine looks like the 2nd picture I posted rinky-dink size initial release. Similar, but with came with the Sandman's BAF Torso, and had single ball-joint arms, a very thin pelvis, and boots that don't have that armored look to them. I wish I'd held off and picked up the superior reissue. It looks like a great base figure.
It's strange that the rerelease was so very different from the original Hasbro Spider-Man 3 figures that we got in Canada. I only saw the 2008 version at a Comic store for a week, then they were gone.
You're using a "Spider-Man 3 Unleashed 360 New Goblin", not one of the standard 5"-ish movie figures.
vs.
^_^ Good work on your custom though. If I ever some across a 360-version of the New Goblin, I'll have to make a rendition like yours.
Also: Is this figure a little shorter than the typical 6" ML figures? I seem to remember all of the Spiderman 3 figures being 5 - 5.5", making them all look like teenagers or tall children next to anything else. Is this the case with your Deadpool?
