Something stinks... And it's my custom Masters of the Universe Classics Stinkor! If you ever had this guy as a kid you remember the terrible smell that would come from him and cling to all your other figures. Well I've recreated him using the body of Stratos, Mer-Man's alt head with added gas mask, lower arms from Skeletor, and Hordak's lower legs modded without the bats. His containment vest was made from Hordak's vest, 2002 Mek-a-Neck's front armor section, an Iron Man backpack tank, and various hoses/fodder parts.

There's absolutely no sculpting on this skunk to prove once again you can customize with just what you have laying around in your parts box and make a completely new character! A Sigma 6 scythe weapon and Narnia shield completed his look and he was painted with Formula P3 paints by privateer press. Enjoy! But enjoy with adequate ventilation... He even stinks thanks to a core infused with Patchouli oil, the exact same scent the original figure had!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Continuing with the Masters of the Universe 200X customs comes Roboto! This guy was quite a few people's faves when they were a kid. To give him full articulation I used the arms and legs of a DCU Lex Luthor and integrated the MotU Roboto forearms on to those. The knees and thigh pads were added and I fitted him with a giant axe that the original figure was missing made from a TFA Voyager and Deluxe Optimus Prime axes. His internal gears were kept working so when you turn his waist the organic 'organs' move and so does his jaw! To top it off I fitted his chest plate with a magnet underneath so it snaps on to his clear chest where the gears are. Roboto is now operational!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who's this? Is it an original character? Sort of... You see back when He Man figures first came out you got a large Grayskull art poster showing all the characters and vehicles on it locked in an epic battle. Well the Wind Raider, that green and yellow personal jet was smack dab in the middle. You know who was flying it? Well we don't know either! There's a guy with a blue head (or perhaps helmet) piloting it that was never made a figure. Kids everywhere wondered who he was.

Wonder no longer for I have given him a name, Air-Ro, captain of the Whirling Guard! Based off the upper-half seen on the poster art he was made from a Zodak body, custom sculpted head, Skeletor feet, and an animated goblin glider that serves as a removable wing-pack. He was painted with Formula P3 paints by Privateer press and turned out pretty accurate to the art. I had to make up the bottom part of him as I went along of course but hey, if Mattel ever makes a new Wind Raider it will finally have it's pilot!

I don't collect MoTU, but these are really cool!! I especially like Air-Ro, but the other two are very cool looking as well!
