Cyclops (Jim Lee) (Marvel Legends) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:64035
Name:Cyclops (Jim Lee)
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Marvel Legends
Creator:newcollector  
Date Added:July 26, 2014
Base Figure:ML Astonishing Cyclops
Height:6.50 inches
There are lots of great Jim Lee-style Cyclops on this site. I wanted to try something a litle different with the head. I took the lower half (visor and face) of the astonishing cyclops head and combined it with the upper half (forehead and hair) of the ML Modern Hawkeye head. I loved the way it turned out.

For the base, i used the ML astonishing cyclops. Used a combination of rubber bands and fixit scuplt for the straps on the body and the boots. The belt is a modified ML Fantomex belt.

Thanks for looking.

Update: forgot to add that I replaced his wrists with the wrist straps from ml fantomex

Thanks, I got the idea from a cyclops custom on this site where someone used the whole modern hawkeye head as an alternative (maskless) head for the figure. I really thought the head looked like Cyclops, so tried to think of ways to use the hawkeye head for this custom. Was going to try to sculpt a visor onto Hawkeye, but didn't have enough confidence in my sculpting ability. Decided to merge the two heads, and it was actually pretty easy.

Hey, he must have a splitting head ache. Ha, splitting head ache, 2 heads split and joined together, funny, ha. Anyway, nice figure, well done and well constructed. Did I tell you the one about the splitting head ache?

Ha! You should have seen my wife's expression when she walked into the kitchen and saw me taking a butcher's knife to poor Hawkeye's head.

That must have been tricky to get it set just right. Came out nice.

Thanks. I got pretty lucky and it fit pretty well on my first attempt. I did need to cut some thin extra pieces to slide in and make it all fit.
