Based mostly off the armored design from the movie here's my armored Red Ranger figure. I'm a huge Power Ranger fan, and after countless seasons and revamps my favorite ranger of all time is the Original red ranger, Jason.
I wanted to do a figure that brought the classic design and added a modern spin on it. I used the Bleeding Edge Iron Man figure as a base and gave it a metallic red paint job. The helmet if from a vinyl 10th anniversary red ranger figure and the hands came from an Iron Man 2 War Machine. I didn't do much to alter the original figure aside from sculpting his belt and adding the morpher. The diamond pattern was achieved by cutting the same onto computer paper and applying it like a decal. His power sword was custom made and has a magnet so it can attach to his back.
Cool, I just got two of those IM bodies for 8 bucks, they look great for "teching up" other plain characters too. If anyone is interested, the Groot series and Iron Monger series IMs are almost the same fig. They have different forearms and the Groot series has removable shoulder pads.
I'm actually in the process of getting a few more of this base figure, lol. It's really cheap on ebay no that the Guardians of the Galaxy repaint warmed shelves for so long.
The red is just clear acrylic red from model masters. The figure was base coated silver and with red on top.
Search Ebay for Power Rangers Vinyl, or Super Sentai Vinyl, there's tons up there atm.

What kind of red is that? I like that its more pearl than metallic.
Also, any chance you can point me to where to get PR heads? That one looks like its in scale, do I just search for 10th Ann. Rangers?
