Which version of the Baron? I'm thinking the version from the early issues of the Thunderbolts.

I think the Taskmaster body is great place to start. i still really like the Black Panther idea for the head. I have never worked with Apoxie sculpt is it difficult?

His upper torso has his pecks and two abs, and the lower body has the other 4 abs. Is that the one you meant? I still think its cool, but that character has really grown on me so I'm kind of biased.

So.... you're saying he should have been portrayed as more of a tall, powerful black man that can kick Captain America's ass in hand-to-hand combat? Ok, that's understandable.
I think Hasbro should have released a Black Panther/Klaw 2-pack.

47 too high for my taste and not including shipping.

Tiberius · 12-11-2011, 09:46 PM

Well, yes and no. Here, I'll get off my ass and take some pictures :P.

It still uses that old Daredevil buck- and the Steve Rogers buck s 1000% better.
Really, a few pages back someone posted comparison pics of the old DD and the new comic pack version and...it's an amazing improvment that would look just as great on BP.

Plus.. thee's scale creep- the new figs like Steve and DD are closer to 4" tall- making T'Challa's ostioperosis pretty noticable.

Ok, to me anyways. The newest highly articulated mold SCREAMS for a Black Panther. Any mold works, but I think DD being so dark and a solid colour would be easiest.

Just imagine the rest of the body black =3.

And yes, this picture is blurry as hell, but it is just for a height comparison. Panther is 6'0 and Cage is 6'6. So, to me anyways. This is close enough =3.

DogFashionDisco · 12-11-2011, 09:59 PM

I see what you guys mean. The original head with an updated body and the accessories from the Target 2-pack (staff and cape) would look great.

Tiberius · 12-11-2011, 10:01 PM

Exactly. Now, some one send me an extra new DD mold for I can make this happen. Also, send me a cape too =3.

Agreed the NEW DD mold rocks!

Jason Abbadon · 12-11-2011, 10:09 PM

UPDATE: T'Challa's head uses that damn big ball attachment- fixing that is such a pain!
The head wont stay on the new peg if you dont though...grrr!

I just used a piece of tape for the picture. For future custom, I will be making the joint bigger or hole smaller.

BigHanksCustoms · 12-11-2011, 10:14 PM

That does look pretty damn good.......

DogFashionDisco · 12-11-2011, 10:15 PM

I have a couple of the 2-packs, but one is a Christmas gift for a friend. If someone really wants the other, I can hook you up I guess. You gotta buy the set though, because I've given away enough random Iron Man figures to last a lifetime, and Toy for Tots doesn't take open toys.

By the way, why do Iron Man figures in sets consistently look like there is robotic piss blasting out of them?

Nice Photoshopping skills, I think I need to take some classes and find out how you did that. Thanks for showing us the results though, it will look pretty awesome like that.

Thanks fellas. I love that stuff, super fun.

Anyway, if you're going to use that body, you might need one:

Here's a link to a $15.29 comic pack of that DD, tomorrow it becomes $16.99 though.

Tiberius · 12-11-2011, 11:20 PM

Heh, I don't even want to see what shipping is...

I hope the Post Office doesn't burn me too much on your Ms. Marvel. Last time I shipped to Canada they charged me $40, but you're a friend, so fuck it.

Tiberius · 12-11-2011, 11:30 PM

That's not right...some one must of been ripping you off, you know, pay for all the bells and whistles..
