Boil & pop was used to remove Cal’s & the Joker’s heads. Cal’s has a tiny barbell joint within whereas the Jokers was attached to a huge ball hinged in the neck molded as part of the torso....[See More]

It bothered me that the Vision made his bracers & boots the same hue as his skin. So I painted them gold to look more comic accurate. His weird non-belt was also gilded. I ended up repainting the...[See More]

The Scarlet Witch just doesn’t look like herself without her headband. Wanda’s iconic headpiece was cut from thin cardboard & glued on. I made it shiny so it looks nice in person yet vexing to...[See More]

Thea "Speedy" Queen is a Civil War Scarlet Witch with the coat removed. I snipped off her hair until it was chin length. Her removable hood is cut from red felt covered in white glue & paint to keep...[See More]

Ronan the Accuser's Captain Marvel prequel costume still isn’t green enough! Since I already had the GOTG version, I decided just to give that a full repaint as threatened instead of waiting to see...[See More]

I’m certain Tombstone was made in his leather jumpsuit costume so Hasbro could use a majority of recycled parts with a minimum of paint. This disappointed everyone who wanted him in a three piece...[See More]

Ocean Master is a repainted Justice League: Throne of Atlantis edition I scored for a whopping $8.00 Canadian. For some strange reason, DCC painted his armored bits icky ecru instead of gold. If they...[See More]

I made a season 4 Barbara Kean from DST's figure & Mezco's Sand Saref. I got Barbara’s head off after much boiling & tugging. I was only able to get Babs’s head onto Sand Saref’s neck after I pried...[See More]

I used the boil & pop method to swap Walter Peck’s head & hands for Edward Nygma’s. Peck’s blazer is open to reveal the vest underneath, so I went with The Riddler’s third season costume. It would’ve...[See More]

I thought Mattel’s Ares movie BAF looked familiar, but I couldn’t place it until I put a flaming sword in his hand. He’s the ideal base for a Shadow King! Did it have a fleece draped over his...[See More]

Gotham's Azrael looks much better in comic book colors. Although I spayed him matte, he still looks too glossy in photos. I sprang for the deluxe version so I could get the unmasked Theo Galavan...[See More]

I’m on record for wishing MCU Black Panther’s silver accents were golden. (Quit hogging all the gold, Iron Man!) A week ago, a digital modification of the Hot Toys figure tricked some folks into...[See More]

This custom began its life as an X-Treme Rogue, unfortunately afflicted with some broken joints. Once I got a replacement, I made this one into goth Rogue from X-Men: Evolution since Toy Biz never...[See More]

I was disappointed that Hasbro’s Marvel Legends Baron Zemo was made in an ugly modern costume. This is inexplicable since they’d just made a Marvel Universe one in his classic outfit. So I was forced...[See More]

The Michael Lane version of Azrael, who looks very Assassin’s Creed-ish, needs more gold fleur-de-lis. (There’s an alternate reality where Azrael has the popular video game franchise instead.) So I...[See More]

I disliked Toy Biz's Rogue, so I made one a few years ago from an extra LCBH Ann O'Brien. She's a bit obsolete now....[See More]

The last time Hasbro made an X-Men line, it at least gave us the first Marvel Legends of Jubilee … in her horrible new costume as a BAF. So not only did I have to resort to ebay for most of parts as...[See More]

I took advantage of the franchise’s misfortune to acquire the giant-size Rocksteady & Bebop for a quarter off at Toys R Us! Then I had to repaint them because Playmates barely put any effort into it,...[See More]
