Hey! Next up is a very fun take on a classic Marvel villain Arcade. Did you know that's actually his real name? This was definitely a test of my skill over the years. I grabbed a Fortnite Wildcard figure, a McFarlane Austin Powers head, A Marvel Legends Hydroman head modified to sit snug and higher on the neck peg, a Hasbro Legends AIM head also modded to fit much higher on the neck peg. I FINALLY made use of the Toybiz Pre-Legends Comcast air glider, Toybiz Legends Professor X instrument panels from his wheelchair, a giant movie Joker goon mask with Toybiz Legends control panel from inside Legendary Riders Cable vehicle, hat is from childrens toyline, custom sculpt cigar with translucent bulb for light effect, I used a Hasbro Legends Dr DOOM elbow, secured it to the steering column of the air glider and used that to secure the Joker mask to the front (can be removed and has some articulation). I secured 2 Infamous Ironman reupulsor accessories to the bottom for flight. Secured a t-shaped peg joint to the front of the bottom, then a NECA Terminator leg with a rotary disc peg on the tip where the foot was, then cut a what I think is a Clamp Champ/ He-Man figure cut it, secured it inside the rotary disc, then glued it back together, with a peg inside the shaft of the clamp. Secured a flight stand inside a base, made a hole at the top, secured to pegs inside the bottom of the glider and secured those inside a t-shaped flat bridge to secure the pegs in. I stripped and repainted the Silvermane r/c car gold along with all the other accessories. The laser pistol mounted on the r/c car is from Cap Quark from Ratchet and Clank. Bubble gun is from motu figure with orange paint removed, exposing purple plastic, then made the gun gold. Buccaneer sword is from pre-Legends Nightcrawler, stripped all the paint, exposing dark blue plastic, then I made it with a gold hilt and silver blade. Sailors cap is from WWE Tugboat. Laser beams are from translucent plastic rods with Tamiya clear red airbrushed on. Various Marvel Legends flesh hands and Mattel movie Dr. Sivana hands and 8 ball accessory. Walking cane is Daredevil billy club with hook sculpt from Procreate so it's also flexible. Red flag on rear of r/c car is from McFarlane Austin Powers female figure (Felicity Shagwell?), repainted red (use to be a mini British flag). I Dremeled down the neck tie, then sculpt the shirt, bowtie from Procreate so it won't break and the buttons. Remote control is from fodder, added a joystick from handlebar, painted gold w/ landscape painted onto monitor screen. Lots of areas had to be modified with my Dremel, sandpapered, the blazer had to be repainted due to a protective coat I forgot to remove prior to airbrushing. A lot of tedious work went into this one. I think this is my best villain piece, arguably my classic Thanos. Really pleased with the results, came out better than I anticipated. Thanks for looking and good fortune to you you.

My local Target had a bunch of these Wildcard figs on clearance so I snagged a couple just in case Hasbro doesn't give us a Arcade, Jigsaw, Moon Knight and of course Mr. Negative on the new white suited body. I was planning on using the Magus head for my Arcade but the Hydro-Man head also works really well. Awesome job !!! Love it !
