The Age of Apocalypse Holocaust (Nemesis) Build-A-Figure would have been amazing if Hasbro hadn't painted over its clear plastic with solid yellow paint! It took quire a few hours and a bottle of acetone to carefully remove the opaque paint. Fortunately I was able to restore the clear look to the armor and used Tamiya clear yellow, orange, and red to shade and add bubbles to it. The canopy was given a ball joint hinge in the back so you could spin it around out of the way and the shoulder pads were ball jointed as well for maximum poseability! I also hollowed out the weird vents of his left arm cannon and filled in those for a smoother look.

Great idea... Plenty of time to work on mine and clean it up- All I've done to mine so far was give him a larger skull- he looks more like a 4in figure inside the armor than 6in Legend...

ooh, hows that look? I hadn't thought of that. And I wonder if you could light-pipe the eyes so they glowed through the back of the head/armor?
