The main goal of this project was to articulate an Armor Tech figure. I don't really mind the original figures, but the lack of articulation hurts them for me. I think articulation is what helped GI Joe stand out in 1982.
The Visonaries waist couldn't have been more perfect. The thighs and waist went together pretty well, and was far less work than I imagined. The shoulders and biceps were hard though. Mine and Chad's original attempt made the arms 1/8" too long, so we had to go back to the drawing board, moving the bicep and elbow of a JvC figure up inside the Armor Tech arm. Keeping shoulder articulation was also tricky. Unfortunately, only the right arm can swivel the way that it should. I really would like to fix that at some point.
