I’m a fan of the movie Akira and I love Kaneda’s custom motorcycle-not only does it look sweet, it’s become so iconic. I had this spare Bullet Bike sitting around that I actually got here from the Realm store many years back and felt like taking that same style and making my own ‘Americanized’ bike.

Not too much was actually done to the bike. I didn’t want to repaint it because I liked the solid green color. I did do some light repainting, mainly the seat and the tail light, just to make them look a little more realistic. The biggest change I did was adding all the stickers and decals too it. They were just pulled from various books I had sitting around and were used to make the bike look more personalized (I like to believe that the world it’s from also has comics, which explains the Cobra sticker).

The bike still retains moving wheels, folding kickstand; flip up machine guns and two firing rocket pods with missiles.

The figure is a combination of different parts. He’s a FF4 Movie Mr. Fantastic body, wrestling figure head and an XMC Wolverine legs. Of course, everything was repainted and sealed to protect the paint a bit better. Finally, the figure also comes with a bat weapon, for smacking rival gang members.
