Small Scale Military Headquarters

Here's my 1st try to add wrist articulation to a fig

base fig is a BBI combat command with painted face (no more mustache) and arms (to hide the ugly black elbow articulation)




since i couldn't manage to unscrew the damn torso, i cut his wrists and try to add some articulation. Otherwise i'd have just switched the arms.

I think it turned out ok for a 1st try (i don't have a dremmel so it was a pain to make the wrist articulation )

lmk what you think about him

Looks like he's right out the movie (and about to get zapped by the predator)..

Nice work. Was there ever a predator done in 1:18 or 3 3/4 ?

takar made some very nice 3"3/4 alien and predator figs from the AVP movie

Hot Toys made a bunch of 4" Alien and Predator figures a few years ago and last year released several of the Aliens Marines plus Ripley. Most are pretty expensive now but Ripley and Drake are still reasonable.

i thought hot toys only made Aliens (the cameron movie) snap kit figures

no they also made alien vs. predator figures a few years ago. 4 diff't predators and 4 diff't aliens.

cool, how do they compare to the takara preds ?

update :




on the last pic you can see my WIP Dutch custom

"If it bleeds, we can kill it"


Nice customs.

What about Jesse "the body" Ventura?


21st Century needs to jump on this:
Action/TV/Movie Stars that have gone into politics:

As already mentioned, Arnold and Jesse
-Ronald Regan (wasn't he in some WWII pics?)
-Fred Grandy (Love Boat's "Gopher")
-Hillary Clinton (Terminator IV: Kill Bill)
-Clint Eastwood (Was or may still be Mayor of Carmel, CA)
-Fred Thomson (TV star)

Anybody think of anybody else?

i was more planing to make a dillon custom, gotta find a appolo creed head (maybe purchase it from JFAK)

here's an update pic of Dutch

Nice customs hope to see the rest of the team!

thanks buddy

gotta finish these two guys and then i'll try dillon (i've ordered a body and a head)

they're almost finished and they're starting to look cool

Damn, that dutch has some big arms! what did you use for him?

that's a Gi Joe Major Barrage fig painted with a GTG custom head

another team member on the way : blain

here are the pics :

Man those first team member look really good.
And thank you for the tip I will now look with a new eye Major Barrage.

thanks buddy

and good luck on finding a Major Barrage, it's a pretty expensive fig

that's why i use 25th anniv figs for my customs now (blain is a gung ho head on a roadblock body)

here is the 1st pic of my try on Blain, still gotta finish paint details and give him old painless (and a MP5) but he's almost done



recipe :

head : 25A Gung Ho (modded)
Body : 25A Roadblock (modded)

gear : 25A RB's harness (modded) and backpack, BBi MP5 and hat and MJ Minigun

Great work Blaster! am looking forward to seeing him with old painless! if you are using Marauder inc's one you can easily add elastic straps to the back pack.

Looking forward to the rest of the team!
