Custom Type:Action Figure

Base Figure:See Recipe

I've been wanting to make this guy for the longest time, and really just had to when I saw him show up on Netflix Daredevil, really hope to see more of this guy in season two sporting some version of this costume. Don't want to spoil it, but I bet something happens to his Betty sending him over the edge.

Anyway, Melvin here (not to be confused with the purple Spacejammer Gladiator) was made using the following parts:

Torso- ML Infinite Sentry
Head-Shrunken Bowen Statue by casting cave
Arms-NECA Ken
Legs-ML Infinite Movie Drax w Ultron Legendary riders elbow spikes on boots
Saws-Real metal Dremel Saws secured by silver thumb tacs, he also sports a large saw hidden on his belt behind his back.
,
Finished him off with a mostly highly metallic paint job and repainted yellow torso and airbrush shading.

Thanks as always for checking my work out. More can be found at the link provided and more pics of Mr. Potter over at the auction site which is live now.

It is awesome.
one question, is it playable? I mean that saws and whatnot.

It is poseable, playable if you're in to that sort of thing, he is joint rub free. Saws aren't all that sharp, won't take any fingers off.

This is so awesome. I always wanted to make this guy. You Sir, have excellent taste to bring this to life! How do I get that headcast? That sounds like an awesome idea, shrinking down statue heads...
