G.I. Joe Classified Custom Discussion

I want to get rid of Budo's stupid dick-flap, but I can't find a donor belt that I like. And also I don't really love the idea of buying an entire figure to steal their belt.

Possibly a “duh I already considered that” question, but what about just cutting off the dick flap?

It kind of runs in between the main belt and the 'gunslinger' belt, so that would be a whole process, and I'd probably have to paint because making the cuts in between the belts especially would probably look bad. Also, I'm not 100% on whether I'd like it better, and I definitely don't want to have to buy this guy again.
 
I know he's arguably the most disliked figure in the line, but it bugged me that (OG) Falcon only came with a shotgun so I stuck a spare sidearm and one of those small khukri-style knifes on him with sheath/holster and it really does help make him look better prepared for anything coming his way. He was weirdly under-geared compared to every other figure in the line. I think I gotta do this for Lady Jaye, too.
 
Okay, I just wrote up a Bongo the Balloon Bear/Candy Appel file card and now I need a Candy figure. I figure this HAS to be doable, right? Bear costume maybe not (the Fortite figures don't scale otherwise I'd start there) but maybe Marvel Legends Moira MacTaggart with a blonde head swap? Or are there any civilian figures out there featuring women in skirts I should look into?
 
Marvel Legends Aunt May, Peggy Carter, and a couple of Jean Grey's also have skirts. But I think they make most of those figures statues from the waist down. I don't own them to know for sure. There was a Gwen Stacy too but I bet she's probably expensive now.

Yeah, Gwen runs $50-plus these days. The Jean Grey with maybe an arm swap would work. I think my cheapest option is to find a spare Emma Frost or Sharon Carter head and pop it onto a Moira Mac body.
 
WELP, I put in a bid on the parts to make a Candy Appel figure a few days ago, forgot about it, and casually just won the bid, so I'll have the parts for Candy. Are there any redheaded civilians I should make with the leftover parts? Cos oops, I have those too.
 
Current obsession: how to make a Kwinn custom. I wonder if there's a head I could pop onto a Jurassic Park Amber Collection Muldoon body?

Damn that's a great start!

I hate that I think a good start would be the Red Hood head because I hate screaming faces but he's got a close look. Or maybe the black-haired agent from the Shield generic two-pack.

With any luck, big bad work shop will do a Not-Kwinn figure soon though...

Y'know, I'd buy one from them in a New York Minute. It's the wait that kills me with that line though. We could be waiting so long for their version of Kwinn Classified would pop one out in the interim.

(I do want to pick up the guy you and I decided was Cobra's fashion designer though.)
 
Oh, Snakeskin? Fuck yeah. I still have that on my wishlist too heh.

Hell, by the time BBWS does a Kwinn, Hasbro may have done both a Marvel AND an IDW version.
