Let me start off by saying...this custom is ridiculous. I know that. It was created as a gag to blow off steam while doing my other customs. It's a joke, so Channing Tatum/Magic Mike movie haters, custom action figure purists (are there really such a thing?) relax. This custom kind came about after I dumped out some GI Joe custom fodder out and the pieces fell in close proximity to each other. I kept the pieces together, not sure if I'd make such a silly custom. When I saw that Hasbro (during a panel at Joecon 2012) made a joke showing a pic Magic Mike as the new "Ultimate Duke", I knew I had to make a Joe custom of Mike. The figure uses the torso of Pursuit of Cobra Quick Kick, the legs of GI Joe Rise of Cobra Cobra Commander, and of course the head of a Rise of Cobra Duke aka Channing Tatum. His various accessories from different GI Joe and a Pirates of The Caribbean figure. I was going to simply take pics of the figure to show him off...but c'mon...he needs to be shown working a crowd of Female Joes:) ![]() |
Positive or negative, Thanks for the feedback! As the description says, it was all in good fun, I had a laugh, others did as well, so my job was done, heh. It was featured on Toycutter...and then KOTAKU!...It WAS on http://www.ebay.com...but alas, it has been SHUT DOWN by Da Man! Yep. Warner Bros, pulled it from the 'bay. Hey, their movie, their character. It got a little more attention than my customs usually get, so it's all good. To all those I may have offended...sorry 'bout that...but how the hell else am I going to get rid of all the GI Joe Rise of Cobra Duke heads I've got!?
Thanks again!
Good Night Everybody!
anyways, nice work man! great pics too.
Thanks for that. Thanks a lot for that.
