New Custom Action Figures – Darth Knight 2.0, Dial Tone (G.I. Joe), James Bond (Daniel Craig) 3 3/4″, and Rene Belloq (Indiana Jones) 3 3/4″

Today I’ve got not one, not two, but 4 new custom action figures! I got them done quickly so I wanted to share them together. First up, we have Darth Knight 2.0. If you remember my first Darth Knight custom, it was pretty popular. I’ve updated the detailing on it, and added a couple of new custom accessories as well! Next, we have a 25th Anniversary style G.I. Joe Dial Tone. He’s a recreation of the G.I. Joe Club exclusive Dial Tone figure that is so hard to come by now. I figured out which parts were used, and got a cast head, backpack, and gun from my friend Alyosha over at Broken Arrow Toys, and painted it up! Then, there’s my custom 3 3/4″ Daniel Craig James Bond. He was made from the body of a Rise of Cobra James McCullen, and the head from a Golden Compass figure. And last up, we have Rene Belloq, from Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. This figure is a 3 3/4″ as well, meant to fit in with the other Hasbro figures. They never made a figure of Belloq in his white suit, so I took a Jazwares A-Team Face figure, painted it up, and gave him the head from a Rise of Cobra James McCullen with painted hair, and the fedora from an Indiana Jones.

Hey guys! I got some new customs for you. They’re both based on the movie X-Men First Class designs for Charles Xavier and Magneto, of them in their flight suits at the end of the movie. I had to modify an X-Men 2 Cyclops body, complete with a resculpted textured torso, and used the straps from a Movie Masters Survival Suit Bruce Wayne figure for the straps on the suits. Resculpted heads of an unmasked Ronin for Magneto, and a movie Blackheart for Xavier complete the customs.

That’s right, my latest custom takes Bruce Timm’s artwork from Batman the Animated Series and turns it into a fully articulated 6″ action figure. It’s meant to be in style with DC Universe Classics figures, but the head sculpt and paint job are distinctively based on the animated series style. He was given a cell shaded paint job, cartoon accurate head sculpt, and a cartoon accurate grapple gun as well.

Be sure to check out a couple of photos below, and click here to check out the full set of pictures, plus a detailed description on the process behind the custom.

This Animated Batman custom is also currently for sale on eBay for anyone interested. If you know someone who might be, pass the link along.

New Custom Action Figure Shows That I’m Batty

I’m really terrible at Bat-related puns, aren’t I? Don’t tell me, my ego is fragile. Anyway, it does elude to my newest custom action figure. The newest addition to the showcase is a movie concept for John Blake from the Dark Knight Rises as Nightwing. Don’t worry, it’s not a spoiler, but after seeing the movie I just couldn’t get the concept out of my head, so I had to make it.

You can view the entire gallery and description by clicking on the photo below. I even wrote up my own little story for incorporating John Blake as Nightwing into the Nolan Batman movie universe. And if you’re interested then you can bid on this custom right now on eBay. Don’t forget to tell your friends who you think might be interested.

New Radical Custom Action Figures!

This week I have a whole set of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures that I’ve customized with realistic paint jobs to help bring out the beautiful sculpts. Each figure has been hand painted from head to toe with washes and dry brushes and several shades of various greens and yellows to really help bring the new figures to life. I’ve also customized and painted all of their weapons, and given Michelangelo’s nunchucks and kusarigama real metal chains. I’ve done the same thing with Donatello’s trisected bo staff.

Click the photo below to check out the full set of photos, and be sure to scroll all the way down to see some comparison shots of the customs next to the original factory figures to get the full effect.

Also, if you’re interested in them, I have this whole set for sale on eBay in one lot, so bid often and tell your friends.

Sorry it’s been so long since I posted new customs. I get so involved in the actual creation of customs that sometimes I get backlogged with stuff I need to actually post on the site! I’m working on that though, and you should be getting at least one new custom a week from now on. This time though, since I’m so backlogged, you get four! Two G.I. Joe related customs, and two Marvel Legends related customs. Just click on the pictures below to go to their individual pages.

First up is an orange metallic repaint of the G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra Neo Viper Officer. Second for today is a version 2.0 of my custom Space Neo Viper concept, complete with a new spiffy jetpack. Then we have a custom Marvel Legends style figure of Ms. Marvel as Binary, and last up we have a custom Marvel Legends Moondragon figure.

Thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoy the new customs.

Holy New Custom Action Figures Batman!

Haha, that’s right I have four new customs posted in the archive. I recently did a few quick Batman related customs and wanted to share them with you. They’re all repaints, but I feel they’re pretty nifty. Click the pictures to take you to their pages.

DC Universe 6" Penguin in Black and white tuxedo Mattel Mint Condition Custom Action Figure John HarmonDC Universe 6" Robin Young Justice Teen Titans Mattel Mint Condition Custom Action Figure John HarmonDC Universe 6" Batman Mattel Mint Condition Custom Action Figure John HarmonDC Universe 6" Nightwing New 52 Mattel Mint Condition Custom Action Figure John Harmon

The first one is this custom DC Universe Penguin action figure, repainted in a completely black and white tuxedo. The next one is a Young Justice Robin action figure, repainted in Teen Titans cartoon colors as a mashup of the two designs. The third is a modern comics style DC Universe Batman. This exact version of Batman has never been done by Mattel and I never understood why. This is, in my opinion, THE version of Batman. And lastly, I leave you with a Nightwing in New 52 colors. He was a lot of fun to do, although it was also very frustrating ha ha. Click the link to his page to see what I mean.

Thanks for looking, and I hope you dig the new customs.
