Nice! You know, I was gonna go classic, and I could've probably used just about any average human sized base for him, since he's all armor, essentially...but I dunno. I've just always loved this particular costume. It pops to me, and the transluscent torch was pracically begging for it Thanks for the comments, guys! atgscl, They'll both probably end up on the 'bay eventually, it's only really a matter of time Drop me a pm, if ya want. More on the way, guys...i'm off for 3 days, so i'll have time to work, and probably wrap a couple up...

Maybe I missed it, but what's your eBay ID so I can keep it bookmarked?

Hey man...It's actually my Dad's username, he lists my customs for me as I don't really use ebay for buying, but it's Rattleme1. As I said, I'll probably be putting up the next batch this week...it's looking like Beta Ray Bill and Sasquatch at this point. Unless I'm feeling saucey and want to list these last couple as well.

Ok guys...sorry for the semi-long wait. But, it's over now, and here are the two newest customs I've been working on. Up first, one of the few figures I see EVER making it into SHS because of his very character...I'm guessing Hasbro's not big on Nazis in a kid's line Anyway, here he is,The Red Skull: And finally, Man-Thing. I really dig the Marvel Monsters, so I'm thinking I'll do more of those at some point. But for now, here's the shambling mockery of a man known as Man-Thing: So there ya have it....for now. I've got a couple of more going right now....Hopefully they'll see fruition soon. Thanks for lookin guys!

I like the the Red Skull...especially the recipe. I don't know if the head clicks well with me. I like it, but I dunno. Maybe it's the mouth. I like the cigar, nice touch! I do think they will make it, but it will not be any bit of Nazi like whatsoever. However, it might just be my wishful thinking.
The ManThing is awesome!

I like the Red Skull, like Philibusterpro said the head is kinda off, but I think its just the mouth, I still like it though, great work. The Man-thing is heavenly.

WOW! man thing is so god! you are really really good at sculpting things from scratch (im guessing thats what you did)
and red skull is good to but yeah, i think his mouth that doesnt go across his whole face makes his head look a little awkward

Well, the pic is hard to see because enlarged its blurry, and the thumbnail is too small. The mouth doesn't go all the way across the face, as was mentioned, it's a sinister grin that curls up to one side, while still giving the semblence of skeletal jaw structure. I did it to fit the style of the line, rather than to take it straight off the comic page ( because, well, there's not a single SHS figure that looks exactly like his or her comic counterpart). It was all in an attempt to give him that sinister but 'cutesy' element that is the staple of the line. So yea The pic really doesn't do him justice...if I had my good light, you'd be able to see that part of his face better, but it broke yesterday Man thing is actually a Venom base, although he's heavily modified, obviously. I'm really happy with how he came out...plus he was super fun to make! Thanks for lookin guys!

Wow, Man-Thing is really good, too bad Hasbro probably won't make him.

Maybe I was just wanting teeth, or something. Or lips...I do like the brow and eyes. BTW, I wasn't trying to "dawg" you , I was just replyin! ;D
