I’d be interested to know as well. Could we use the head on an articulated figure? I know often these are too small but a head might work.

It's worth a used cigarette butt, at least.

So I found some nice display cabinets on Craigslist and changed my setup a bit. They have glass doors that hinge in the front for easy access and aren't super heavy which is nice. Love the look of the figures behind glass.

Tough part was figuring out where to place everyone. Still missing some characters I'd like, so I may hunt around a bit to fill out the ranks. I had to fill in some spaces with random figures or characters which breaks up the flow a bit. But happy so far with it.

Those Nick Fury customs KICK BUTT!

I'm slowly getting back into custom figures after a couple of years doing mainly Star Wars models, but here's what I was up to before my break-

Some of the modern GI Joe figures can be converted into kickass SHIELD specialists- like Stalker here...

Ready to kick ass!

I also took the excellent Renegades Snake Eyes (my alltime favorite) and upgraded him into an agent of SHIELD and BPRD- 'cause nothing's cooler than a secret agent that's also a mute, horribly scarred, monster-hunting ninja badass!

I just painted his forearms black, added the SHIELD emblem on his chest and the BPRD emblems to both arms and then went over the black areas some, darkening them. I also added some Steel paint to his knee and boot armor. I Dullcoated him, greatly adding to his overall look- nothing makes a fig look better than Dullcoat- it takes off that plastic shine and really gives the fig a lookof having cloth on, instead of being a hunk of shiny plastic. I painted those damn leg screws as well...SO annoying that those never get paint on Joe figs!

Next is my favorite custom to date- a SHIELD armored trooper- taking the basic look of the Mandroids from Avengers: EMH, I used a deep Dive iron Man armor, added machine guns to the search light dimples on the gauntlets, a new unibeam, insane super gatling gun on his back, missiles on his shoulder and a new helmet from a Halo ODST micro figure thingier.
Then I went nuts with painting and weathering and added a bunch of decals and such...and a comms antenna.
Here he is next to Snake Eyes- you can really tell it's the right scale to hold someone 1:18th scale!
