Little is yet known about the background of the costumed criminal calling herself Yellowjacket, a name previously used by Dr. Henry Pym when he was a costumed adventurer, (Source: Marvel Directory).
She was a pretty easy custom, ML Wasp for a base, and some apoxie and fodder bits. I used the fancy dremel for this first time to make the grooves for the collar... so I'm only about 80% happy with this figure. But I hope everyone else enjoys her!](userimages/customs/17500/17427-1.jpg) Yellowjacket II Marvel Legendsby ivorygleamI haven’t seen this one made yet – however I might not have been looking in the right part of the customizing world.

![[X-Force Team] We were asked to create the X-Force team this year at the Fan Expo by several people. So without further ado, here are all eight figures; they took awhile let me tell you. Special items on each figure are: interchangeable head, hands and feet on Wolfsbane, golden skinned Elixir, completely tatted up Vanisher, Domino featured with double blazing guns, Wolverine decked out in the most up to date X-Force costume, Archangel in his updated black/silver uniform, and X-23 featuring razor sharp real claws (which were a pain in the butt to find)!

Again I didn't make Ryan suffer, for this one - just help on popping the head on the body. Random Buffy figure and a Tigra head, sculpting on the alternative arms and shirt - since Bella wears those Indian linen shirts.

I believe that NECA figures are pretty much untouchable -- except for the absolutely crud figures they released of Twilight. They are prototyping them and marketing them WAY to fast in my opinion. The Edward packaging even had spelling errors on it! Sad stuff.
So, I decided to make them -- I didn't even make Ryan suffer by asking him to choose base bodies, I did it all by myself.
Edward is a splice of Spike, and a Mr. Fantastic head sanded down like crazy and sculpted. It worked amazing, it was the strangest thing ever to paint this figure and watch it look more and more like Edward aka Robert Pattinson. My dad was over this weekend & when he saw the WIP he asked me what store I bought it from! Little ego boost even if it was just my dad saying it.
