![[Magog 2.0] I never thought they would make this fig and so awhile back I made him. I was very pleased with it. Then came the announcement of him being made. SO I waited and picked it up. I was semi pleased with the new fig he didn't look like the figure I wanted but he did have some details I loved. So after lots of deliberation I made Magog version 2.0! First trick was taking the horns out of version 1 and swapping them on to a new fig easier said than done. then adjusting the knees so I could put on version 1's knee pads after that it was a simple repaint and version 2 was complete. but not wanting to lose version1's long hours and effort I placed the smaller horns to his helm, again add paint and it was done.SO here he is version2.0 along side version1.5 and his original buck.](userimages/customs/37500/37035-1.jpg) Magog 2.0 DC Universeby Bob-A-FerretI never thought they would make this fig and so awhile back I made him.

Just couldn't have that. And as I was slightly disappointed in the YJ version it was the obvious choice to make the DCUC version from. So I head swapped him repainted him to match made green stuff jewelry and there you have a comic accurate version of Aqualad. My first pic has him with the original figs he was made from though one is headless now LOL. the rest have him with the YJ version for comparison
for those who don't know this character here is a quick synopsis.
Jackson Hyde is an average student with a girlfriend in Silver City, New Mexico. Since he was a young boy, he’s been taught by his parents to stay away from water, because his true parents might be able to locate him and certain changes happen to Jackson when he gets in the water.
Jackson has kept this secret hidden for years, from his girlfriend about being afraid of drowning and unable to swim, and being in the dark about the mysterious](userimages/customs/37000/36946-1.jpg) Aqualad 2 DC Universeby Bob-A-FerretNo way could my collection not have a comic accurate DCUC style Aqualad.

![[Johnny Quick of the CSA] Modern Age Johnny Quick is from Earth-2, in the anti-matter universe of Qward. He is the counterpart of New Earth Flash, and most of his history and real name is unknown. What is known he killed his predecessor (the previous Johnny Quick) who was a Thunderer. He assumed the identity of Johnny Quick and extracted his blood to create a super-speed drug "Speed Juice" that he has to inject on regularly basis. He is part of Earth-2's "Ruling Elite" as a member of the Crime Syndicate of Amerika, in which the Syndicate supplies fresh batches of his drug, which sometimes is altered to be more euphoric. He was recently beaten by Owlman who slipped a inhibition chemical compound into Quick's "Speed Juice" which resulted in Quick having a small heart attack. It is unknown if this heart attack has impacted his speed and other abilities. When Quick faces Jesse Chambers, she says that "This Johnny Quick has my father's face", implying he alternate version of N](userimages/customs/37000/36945-1.jpg) Johnny Quick of the CSA DC Universeby Bob-A-FerretModern Age Johnny Quick is from Earth-2, in the anti-matter universe of Qward.

Paint in the photos is still wet. I was in such a rush I entered it twice once as a normal fig and then again as part of the contest cause I had made an error when entering the first time. Thanks for catching the post guys I am assuming Coder but who ever made sure that this entry was posted correctly Thank you. ANyway I have been working on this idea for awhile now.

![[General ZOD] So This is my Ultimate Zod he had to feel like every Zod combined into one. So I went through ever pic of him I could find. And was amazed that his face has been more or less the same in every version of the character even the movie version had a similar face structure and hair color. Going through my head bin I found a Dr strange head and it was the most reminiscent of the face. Then I wanted to incorporate each look in to the costume he has had several hats through out his tenure as Zod but the beret fit in-between 3 of those so I chose a beret. Gave him the Kryptonian glasses. Now I decided against the Armored body Zod as he never seems to have that when Non or Ursa are present and there is some debate if that is General Zod or his grandfather Zod. And as I really liked the coat in his new appearance but the movie one still seemed the most all inclusive I chose a Shawn Micheal's Body and repainted it to match the look I wanted and took the DC Direct Zod coat of repainted it and the](userimages/customs/34500/34297-1.jpg) General ZOD D.C.

I was very surprised to learn Ursa has no Kryptonian family crest. Though she is Zod's mate she is not his wife and has no crest of her own.

But I finally found one. Then came the hard part. Finding a cloak/ cape or jacket for him. Yeah One problem with the big show being so big. Their is not many characters in his scale that you can use parts from. But I found 1 in my entire bin of parts that would work Ronin's cape was perfect. Now I actually wanted elements from all his appearances just as I did for the other 2 of the evil cadre. But the movie version was what I wanted to make the basis of it. So colors where simple black, but black on black just doesn't pop so I went through all his designs and history and found that Silver was the official color of Krypton Science robes. While Military sported a red to signify the spilled blood. And as Non was Jor-El's Compatriot and a scientist I decided a solid silver would be perfect for him.

![[Power Ring Guard Guyner] I love alternate realities and the first one I ever came across in my life was the Crime Syndicate of Amerika I especially loved how each character was a mirror of the regular universe. However Power Ring's ring was not powered by will but a Jinn of sorts. Now as John,Guy, and eventually Kyle came into the standard universe I always wondered how did they come into the CSA Universe we have seen that John and Kyle both have existed. But no explanation as to how as their is supposedly only one ring. So I figured I would write a way and I have a huge story written but this is not the forum on which to share it. But Suffice it to say that Maltus in this universe produced multiple races the greatest here became the Qwardians who moved beyond the other races of Maltus and began life on Qward. Much like the Guardians did and began living on Oa. However a small group of an off shoot race disagreed with this decision and evolved into Jinn like creature's who also left Maltus to overtake the univ](userimages/customs/33500/33227-1.jpg) Power Ring Guard Guyner DC Universeby Bob-A-FerretI love alternate realities and the first one I ever came across in my life was the Crime Syndicate of Amerika I especially loved how each character wa...9 comments | ![[Star Sapphire] DCDirect made a Star Sapphire and I had two qualms with it 1st it was pink and boy do I mean pink somewhere between cotton candy pink and neon pink ScArY to say the least! 2nd problem it like all DCDirect figs had no where near enough articulation. So I had to rectify this. I started with a WW base and remodeled away the WW bra and then made the correct size breasts not trying to overdevelop themas I want her to be accurate to the references I used. then I removed the collar from and head from my DCDirect SS. and popped the head on my WW fig and glued down and puttied the collar in place then popped the DCDirect SS head on.

But Why is Space Ghost an Orange Lantern well let me tell you the story of how a hero died with honor to become the nightmare of 12 sectors. Space ghost was flying in his ship chasing some fugitive thieves their leader was one Larfleeze they had evaded capture for some time but he had heard rumors of the criminal in the vicinity and after verifying at the nearest seedy space bar he flew in the direction of an asteroid ignoring the warnings of the barkeep. As he approached he saw a orange glimmer and soon his ship was under attack by an orange head that began to devour his engines and he was forced to abandon ship.His nega-beams and ships weapons had no effect on the creature it seemed to be there and not there at](userimages/customs/32500/32406-1.jpg) OL Space Ghost Green Lanternby Bob-A-FerretMy wife went to a charity toy sale and bought me a clear Space Ghost that was in package for super cheap knowing I want any clear fig I can find to ma...11 comments | ![[GL Young Chaselon or Diamalon] This one has been a trial mostly cause it tool a lot of weird different parts to make. This is my take on Chaselon early in his career I say that cause he has become more rounded as he has developed and this is more the original oblong shape similar to that of Diamalon. My theory is as this species gets older the grow like any crystal and some in different shapes. But I will let you guys make the final call is this Chaselon or Diamalon?? Soon to how I made this crazy character I went on a cruise a few years ago on while I was on the cruise I saw this crystal glass that made me think of both characters. The guy at the Belize market sold it to me for $2. Then I had to figure out how to attach limbs drilling the glass is very difficult but I was able to make divots in the glass but nothing substantial enough to hold the limbs.

Problem is I think he has become way way way cooler in recent years since he got rid of his devil suit and switched to a black T shirt with his logo and black jeans. SO I had to do this fig but problem #1 He has bulked up since his original costume days so that fig is not big enough and he is technically bigger than sups now especially in the chest. SO I had 3 choices Parasite slightly to hunched, Demon I didn't want to swap out the whole leg set up so I passed on that and Bizzaro. I had a few extras and he stands right and though he is not taller than sups he seems bigger and his chest was bigger. The difference in height between Sups and Blue devil was important to me but my homework showed it was 3 inch difference. So in this scale with the head swap it was really close to perfect.
