Wings are from the Toy Biz Spider-man Animated series line from the 90s. The Vulture figure.
The Helmet is the Accel suit from Rise of Cobra but on backwards. The armor is Wraith armor with the shoulder pads and interior neckline trimmed off. The swords are from Paris Pursuit snake eyes. The gloves are from the same Wraith figure but put on backwards with the interior side trimmed down using a nail clipper to keep a small curve but leaving the outward longer curve on the opposite side. The hands are from XMO: Wolverine in the brown coat as you see in one pic. The base of the figure is the Desert Ambush Scarlett figure and the Head is from a comic two pack Scarlett figure. The final touch was the feet. It uses feet from Impact armor Duke from rise of cobra to make them larger and better support the balance of the figure.
It's pretty much my GI Joe cyber ninja recipe before I updated it to use an Alley viper helmet or Zombie viper helmet and either Renegade Scarlett head or Retaliation's Lady Jaye head. If I could get my hands on more of those parts, I'd troop build the hell out of that recipe.
She was literally my prototype, but I never managed to get more of those parts so I never managed to make more off-shoots. The alley viper helmet styled one was going to be my Cyber Ninja Jinx custom for my GI Joe shelf. The rest I was going to have fun with and go buck wild including Bubblegum Crisis colored ones. This is why I'm so adamant about Hasbro re-releasing Wraith figures, Alley Vipers, Zombie Vipers, Retaliation Lady Jaye, Renegades Scarlett and Desert Ambush Scarlet. If that was a solid case assortment, I'd buy at least 3 boxes of em if not more.
I didn't wait to tell that until the end of the competition because if others find unique ways to implement those parts into their design and manage to make it even cooler for theirs, more power to them! Plus if I ever get more parts to make more of these like I want to, I might use some of those aspects of how they made it better.
That's what I love about the wraith gloves. The peg on them for his guns is compatible to so much gear that finding new ways to use them can really enhance all sorts of designs and provide ample versatility to customs.
