The first photo of them in the boat kinda looks scary. It almost looks like the Hulkster is getting ready to give your diver a back rub. :oops:
Nice work though.

JA- You are RAD man! What can I say. I like the animal hospital boat too. That's the covert way to do business. No one would ever suspect a Naval Special Operation was taking place!!! Remember how you were asking about any figures I mod-ed? Well here they are with some quick explanations on how and why - enjoy.

The first one: R5D4. If any of you guys can figure out what I did and WHY I did it, your stock just went up 1000 points! :P

Image

Second group: Well JA, The stock rebel trooper (on the left) looked like he went into GNC (U.S. drug store) and picked up hella creatine or quite possibly went to IVAN DRAGO's steroid supplier. I couldnt go out like that! So I took a bunch of normal looking Han Solos and the rest is history. (Scroll to the right to see full picture)

Image

The Han Solo in Stormtrooper disguise was a limited edition (special order) if i remember right. I was late on the bandwagon so here is the poor man's solo (using a Luke version as the basis):

Image

HOTH Rebel Soldiers. Well the original one looked like a friggin Pedophile with gimpy ass legs. I couldn't build an army around that! So I took Luke in Hoth Gear, generic-fied his rank insignia and cut off the BEEF JERKY that was hanging off the right side of his head. Drilled a port in the back for the backpack...

Image

Image

Small Droid: Problem: The Damn droid couldnt stand up. The designer of this one was probably high on crack or a natural dumb-ass. SO. I cut a notch in the walking lever so it would "lock" in neutral. That way, the poor thing could literally stand up!

What woulda happened if I didnt notch the lever:

Image

Image

Now the droid with the built in notch:

Image

You will see in the pic with the Hoth Soldiers, our Droid is no longer on the disabled list :P

Well JA...these mods were done over 6 years ago. But with some of the bbi stuff forthcoming, theres a good chance I might start kitbashing again. You'll be the first to know! Keep up the good work at your end! I'm diggin it!
