That's one handsome Irishman.

  • Head, torso, butterfly joints, hands, boots and cape: Banshee (2023 X-Men 60th Ann. 3-pack)
  • Arms, midsection, pelvis and legs: Prowler (2018 Lizard wave)

Picked up the Banshee 3-pack during that Pulse sale a few weeks back, then nabbed Prowler (body only) off eBay for cheap. I chose Prowler since he's green plastic in the most places where paint rub would be a concern (e.g., knees, elbows, pelvis). The proportions for that sculpt are also fairly close to the new buck Banshee came on.

I pried open the torso and masked it off, along with the forearms and shins, then used a combination of Mr. Hobby and Tamiya acrylics to try and match the green (torso) and yellow (forearms and shins).

The color isn't exactly right since Banshee should sport a more saturated "kelly" green, but this will do until Hasbro gets around to their own GSXM1 Banshee.

Great work here, I’d buy this! Of course, Hasbro will unveil one in a week or two!

Why not post on the regular ML thread? I’m sure many regulars that make customs would enjoy seeing this…

Thank you!

I do hope Hasbro gets around to a classic Banshee sooner rather than later. It's just that their slow drip tactics when it comes to completing teams/groups can be maddening, and I get impatient sometimes. This is especially true regarding various X-squads (hence my avatar ).

I'll post this over in the Legends thread, too. I didn't want to interject in the middle of the Comic Con fervor (if you can call it that).
