Steampunk Captain America and Tron's Rinzler
 

Here's Captain America Steampunked with gears and cogs for you. His base body was Air Strike Wolverine with Loki legs, Lex Luthor right hand, Medieval spawn left hand, X3 Juggernaut feet, and a DC Direct Dr Midnight head. His shield is pretty much scratchbuilt using a circular base, fitting all the gears/cogs on to the face, and building a styrene frame around that. Different modifications attach underneath it to give the illusion all sorts of machinery is folded up inside waiting to pop out! You didn't think those gears were just ornamental did you? I even used tiny gears for his helmet wingtips.

**Tron Legacy MOVIE SPOILERS AHEAD!**

The Spinmasters Rinzler was great in sculpt, terrible in articulation tho. You really can't pose any of the figures doing anything that the characters did in the movie. I aimed to fix that. To do this Rinzler's joints were reworked by removing plastic behind the knees, ankles, front sections of the hips, shoulders, and elbows. Some had to be taken out and carved down and the neck needed to be completely replaced with a double ball joint.

Fortunately the figure pops apart after removing three screws from his back and allowed me to get to the inner light-up features. There I replaced the orange LED with a blue one and filled the light-holes with clear blue epoxy. Now Tron appears as he did in the final moments of the film, where he proclaims, "I fight...for the Users!" turning blue. His weapons were modded blue as well by replacing the orange plastic and detailing everything with bright light blue/white.
