![[Blitzwing] Transformers Generations Voyager Blitzwing had a lot of quality control issues right out of the box, so many in fact that people started returning him. I set out to fix each issue and make him a decent figure starting with the shoulder assembly that falls apart when you move his arms. The mod is to unscrew all five screws in his back, open him up, and sand down the edges of his inner torso you see circled in red, about a quarter's width. Then sand down the peg posts the same width so the two halves snap back together with no gap. To fix the head not fitting in the nosecone take a large engraver (bladed ball) bit and Dremel out some of the soft rubber, then use acetone to wipe the rest of the purple plastic out from inside there so it doesn't rub. If his faces are stuck unscrew the head and sand the yellow paint off of the rod the faces spin around. Done! After all those mods I gave Blitzwing some panel lining, scuffed highlights, an additional secondary color shade, and added two back](userimages/customs/50000/49976-1.jpg) Blitzwing | ![[Baxter Stockman] The Baxter Stockman figure in the new 2013 TMNT line was cast in a dark brown-metal color and needed a paint job. I also added ball joints to the ankles where they normally snapped on without motion. In the show his hands also pop off and sprout mouser heads, running around and attacking the Turtles. Here I opened up his arms and modded the hands to be removable too. The fingers were made of a waxy plastic and needed to be undercoated with Kleanstrip Bulldog Adhesive Promoter spray before the silver could be added. I gave Baxter Stockman's armor a bright silver finish, metallic red detail, and some sewer-battle-weathering. Then I tossed in a few mousers for him to control as well. Baxter Stockman is ready to take on the green brothers once again!](userimages/customs/50000/49975-1.jpg) Baxter Stockman |
![[Gemini Armor Iron Man (Deep Space Armor)] Iron Man 3 had some amazing looking suit designs but unfortunately they're only being offered as un-articulated 3 3/4" or super expensive 12" figures. What about us Marvel Legends 6" collectors? Well here I've decided to make some of those suits starting with the Gemini Deep Space armor! To create this figure I started with the Mark 42 6" legends figure and sculpted detail on it using Aves Studio's Apoxie Sculpt. The backpack and armor came from some Lost Planet/Halo action figures and modded to fit. The paint work consists of a gloss white armor, semigloss black under-suit, and matte gunmetal sections for a neat contrasting look. The helmet was high glossed gold and given the eyeless-visor look of the design. Tony Stark is ready to repair some space stations with this one!](userimages/customs/50000/49970-1.jpg) Gemini Armor Iron Man (Deep Space Armor) | ![[Cobra Hunter Mutant] Another Batman TDKR Quick-Tek launcher box was used for this Cobra Hunter Mutant.

Designed to augment the strength/defense without sacrificing the mobility of the user, the Iron American suit features partial armor over a protective under-sheath. The Utility Sentry Automaton can be deployed from underneath the shield to scout ahead or act as a defense/offensive unit to the user. Steve Rogers now has just what he needs to answer the call when the Guardians of the Galaxy require assistance or the Avengers face an even bigger cosmic threat!

He's huge and heavy with the main body of a Walmart Avengers movie Hulk, Mecha Hulk lower arms/legs, War Hulk mask, Megablocks Halo backpack, and all sorts of steampunk-ish tubes, pistons, and vials. Different metallic effects, leather straps, and other fodder parts were used to detail him and he even comes with a banner that he can hold high into battle.

Lots of fan requests poured in for me to make her so here's my crack at Ser-Ket. She of course is made from a Transformers Beast Hunters Ripclaw and features a double ball jointed head as well as a new closed-mouth look which I very much prefer. You'll need to unscrew the head and do some cutting/fitting to get her mouth closed but it's pretty straightforward. Her elbows are also modded with ball-joints which greatly improve her posing. She was given a dragon-ish paint job using different metallic colors, weathered greens, mustard yellow, and gold. A semigloss sealer coat was used and now Ser-Ket is ready to rain acidic venom down on her enemies from above!](userimages/customs/49500/49224-1.jpg) Ser-Ket Transformers Primeby Jin SaotomeThe Predacon (Or rather called The Forged) Ser-Ket hails from the Transformers comics and is a downright lethal character!

Those Quick-Tek figures are being discounted at Walmart ($5.00 for two pack at Big Lots now) and are pretty terrible so I decided to figure out how to use them. Ditching the actual Batman figure I focused on the armor-on cases themselves....and decided to make them into deployment cells!
First I cut out more of the bat-symbol silhouette so it wasn't recognizable and removed all the logos, then dirtied it up with a new paint job/weathering, some swivel hinges at the top and stickers. The bizarre claw/gun/laser/whatever action-feature was removed so just the locking armor remained and I added chains and manacles to it.
A cobra Zombie Viper was combined with a Cobra Viper and with his vest on he fit into the armor, the manacles attaching to his feet or hands. The zombie could now be loaded into the armor-launcher and transported that way until it was time to deploy him on the Joes!

This custom Steampunk Robin was created using the upper body of a Marvel legends Walmart series Bucky, lower half of an X2 movie Cyclops, Coleman Stryker hands, Peter Parker head, and various fodder armor/parts/pouches. Real metal gears, leather belts, and brass fittings were used in Robin's creation and Redakai Harrier wings were attached to poseable sections that can be removed from his power pack. His Tesla staff was created from different Spawn/GI Joe parts and given crackling blue electrical parts that matched his armor.

As promised I'm expanding my DC Steampunk line with more characters and the Brass Knight himself, Batman is up next. Batman's story is set in an alternate timeline within the city of Gothaven with the Joker leading the clockwork soldiers from Clownstein Castle.
This custom Steampunk Batman was created from a Marvel legends Steve Rogers upper body, DC Direct Batman head, and Marvel Legends Punisher lower legs. All the armor/goggle/detail was hand-sculpted with Aves Studio's Apoxie Sculpt and real leather straps were used.

But as we all know Skylanders are static statues so I had to give her articulation. The arms from a Star Wars 2-pack Luke vs clone Emperor figure had the right sculpting for her wrapped style and I used the hip joint from a Marvel legends figure to give her an ab crunch so she could lean back or bow. A shoulder joint provided her neck movement and for her legs....well she doesn't have legs so those had to be skipped.

Her neck mod involves buying a set of the double ball joints from Big Bad Toy Store and removing her old one, drilling down into the neck piece so you can glue in the ball cup. The other ball post end snaps perfectly in her head socket. For her ball-jointed elbows I used TF Movie Depthchage's elbows, cutting the originals off at the red swivel peg and drilling into that to mount the gold ball cups. While Ripclaw's bio mentions the character is a 'She' there's still argument in the Transformers fandom. Here I went to put an end to that buy sculpting a brand new chest plate to show off her new assets. They don't get in the way of her Transformation and with the additional mods she can look in any direction and put her claws on her hips!

![[Black Airachnid] It turns out the actual Transformers Prime Arachnid toy was pretty terrible and nothing I tried could save her from being a pile of jointed polygons. So I did what any customizer would do in this situation, kept her head and tossed the body. Airachid would soon be reborn as 'Black Airachnid'. To do this I used the Beast Hunters Starscream mold and trimmed down most of the body spikes, wing hooks, and hollowed out more of the inner chest. Airachnid's head was modded to fit and suddenly the figure started to look more and more like her. She's a jet in this format and I still needed to incorporate the spider aspect. Using Cliffjumper's hammer body and some Star Wars Spider assassin droid legs I created a drone that could be plugged onto her back to show the legs in robot mode and act as a separate robot scout when she was in jet mode.

I'm also sucker for civilian figures. But I'm an even bigger sucker for superheroes in their civilian attire so when I saw Wolverine sporting a black suit in the "The Wolverine" promo shots I just had to make 'office Logan'! He starts out using a repainted X-3 Wolverine head on the torso of a DC Universe The Blank upper body, lower body of a deluxe Buffy Angel figure, coat from Movie masters Ras Al'Gul (or Alfred) and some fodder fists. I resculpted some of the folds thicker and the cuffs as well. This odd mash-up gave me the most articulated, proportioned look for a suited body.

Two Street Fighter dragon-uppercut blasts were modded to fit on his smaller fists and I created a double ball jointed flight stand that's modular in nature.
