Mockingbird - I never liked most of the Mockingbird hero designs and since I mostly keep the character in with SHIELD I wanted a different look for her than her traditional hero garb. I'll get to remaking her in hero attire later. After some research I found a modern design that I liked and made some slight tweaks. For her gear there's a pair of batons (they do split) along with a plug-in piece that I cut down which just sits in the top of the thigh holster. If I put the painted batons in the holster, taking them out again would destroy the paint job. Onto the baton holder I added an ammo pouch and on the opposite leg a holster & pistol. Added four pouches to the belt and sculpted the 'M' belt buckle. Lastly she has a staff in two versions: full extension and collapsed. Both can be kept on the figure's back where I added a clip to the belt - I wanted all of her gear to be able to be carried with her. To top off the figure I added a bit of sculpt to the hair. I don't know much about the Mockingbird character since she was "dead" for most of the Avengers runs I had as a kid, so my only real exposure came from the cartoon world. In taking a cue from A:EMH Mockingbird has risen through the ranks of SHIELD to become one of their top field agents. Due to her intelligence, tenacity and skill set she has tactical field command of most SHIELD ops, superceded only by the Black Widow. Unlike the Widow - and even though she is a part-time Avenger - Mockingbird's loyalties are to SHIELD first and foremost in every situation.

I really want a Mockingbird in the classic too big and impractical sleeves.
