Armored Black Power Ranger (MMPR) (Power Rangers) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:84962
Name:Armored Black Power Ranger (MMPR)
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Power Rangers
Creator:Henchmen4Hire  
Date Added:August 23, 2016
Height:6.30 inches
I was playing Chroma Squad again recently (it's a PC game/loveletter to the Power Rangers franchise) and got the hankering for a Black Ranger custom.

Parts:
•Iron Man Model 45 body (Galaxy Armor?)
•Old Iron Man figure's upper arms
•Marvel Now Captain America hands

Not too complicated of a custom, the arms fought me the whole way though, none of the parts wanted to fit together and had to be modified. Helmet and shoulder armor is sculpted, the center of the chest was modified to fit the Mastodon logo printout. Paint rub isn't an issue because conveniently most of the figure's joints had enough clearance to move without scraping. Used varnish to protect certain areas, especially the white parts so they won't get dirty.

Belt is made with folded tape, I'll add a holster when I get around to making the axe/pistol. The morpher is a printout, I'll replace that with a cast from the recent MMPR Legacy figures eventually.

Most of the black parts are Satin, but I painted some of the recessed areas with Flat Black so they're like "flexible parts" of the suit. Sorry for the bad pics, but you get the idea lol.

Can't believe it's taken me so long to see this, but Awesome work Night!

All he's missing now is the battle ax.

Thanksssss

I see a lot of customizers do solid sculpting, but they don't sand away the imperfections, like fingerprints and uneven areas, so it doesn't look as good as it could. When you have lots of sharp/hard surfaces like here, it's important to refine all those angles.

Normally you can still envision the base figure but when someone changes it just enough, adds just enough twist and their own touches... man it comes off looking like a Power Ranger... Iron who? Great Job!!

yeah, I think if I had made more panels white or silver it would be too obvious what the base figure is, all the black helps hide that

Awesome Black Ranger!! I've seen the IM base used before and it works perfectly for a Power Ranger! On the subject of an axe have you checked out the Dawn of Justice basic line? They've released a couple of Supermans with some kind of axe weapon that I thought would look really cool painted up. Great job!

Toys are too expensive to buy for fodder unless theyre like 90% off, wish bootleggers would make weapons too lol

Check the forum, I posted a WIP of the axe there

This is really cool. I'm actively working on a set of stylized MMPR using some fodder and Bucky Caps. I hope it comes out half as good as yours. The armor gets rid of the muscles that the MMPR don't really have in their design and it keeps the sleekness of it intact as well. Great job!

For my power ax, just as a suggestion, I fused the ax that came with the recent BAF Odin wave (I think Captian Marvel comes with the ax) and the futuristic tommy gun that came with Chameleon It came out pretty awesome looking in that if he's holding it like an ax it's clearly an ax, but if he's holding it like a gun it's clearly a gun. I'll post picks soon to give you an idea.

Yeah, I like that this guy looks strong without shoving muscles all up in our faces.

Definitely want to see the axe you made, if I had bits to cobble together I would just do that, but I'm going to have to build it from scratch with styrene

Thanksss, I wasn't basing it on anything but I like how it turned out. The hard part is going to be making the other rangers with similar armor to keep them uniform lol
