I thought it would be cool to see how many of us here have Black Major Custom Figures.

Here's a few that I own.

Starbird playset! I so want one of those.

Is there a complete list of these Black Major figures out there somewhere?

I saw some of these at C2E2.
Could it have been Black Major himself?
They are really neat. However I really didn't want any.

what exactly are these "Black Major(s)"?

Bootlegs. Factory paint. They are well done. He's focused on Cobra soldier variation army builders but has also done Snake Eyes and Crimson Guard Variations.

I own one of the green camo ones on the bottom.

I want a few of the jungle camo Cobra troopers. That desert Snake Eyes is neat though.

Wish his De Aco variants had swivel arm battle grips.

Exactly. They are called customs on ebay because the word "bootleg" is a taboo there and will get your auction pulled. But here on JoeCustoms, I think we can call them what they really are, bootlegs. Pretty decent ones at that.

unfortunately those aren't made anymore. Plus IF they were cheaper I wouldn't mind a few....but most run $25 to start.

What is that white Helicopter in the middle pic? I want one of those.

Black Major makes some really groovy figures. Sadly they are typically too rich for my blood. I've tried to score them via Ebay, but have yet to win any auctions.

Pretty sure it's a GI JOE Extreme vehicle. it was only released for the 3.75 figures in India, but I thought it saw release for Extreme here in the states.

That's actually the Robo-Copter from Kenner's Robo-Cop and the Ultra Police.

Very much available in the USA.

Nope, the Tiger Hawk went unreleased in the states. They only released it as part of the diecast hotwheels-esq 4 pack.

Edit: HOLY CRAP! Someone tell Mysterious Stranger that for once the answer actually was Robocop's gun.

Just watched a commercial for it on Youtube! That thing is pretty sweet looking, and could make an excellent custom (which may already have been done)...Off to Ebay!
