That's flippin' sweet, Tim -- what head did you use?

Love how you kept it simple, but added the little details to make him more Spirit-y. Those are Crystal Skull warrior forearms, correct?

Yeah, what head is that? Cool looking figure, Tim.

oh man. I'm not even a huge Spirit fan, but you just made my favorite custom of the week, and probably my favorite custom of yours period. This was inspired, and will end up as one of the top ROC customs we see, I suspect. I have to agree that I want to know what head you used, because this single figure might just have secured Spirit a place in the EXCAL verse.

thanks fellas, yep the lower arms are the IJ warrior guy as is the head just made him new hair. I think the head fits great for spirit and dennis thanks alot for the great comments and make him a part of your team......

Very sweet idear. You should pick up a set of 25th spirit gear for him, that'd be perfect.

LIke everyone else, I love the head choice, it looks like it would fit perfectly with ROC. Great figure all around, my two minor complaints would be the wrist/knife thingy seems kinda awkward - if you wanted to go a little different maybe the back of his belt or on his web gear. the other peeve(again just my personal thing) is the shirt - while it perfectly conveys the "sameness" of roc figures, I think a different color would really make this a simple but super figure.
that being said, I still would buy this if I saw it on the pegs, great all around work.

Would you go classic blue?

Maybe darker than classic(not too dark though), but blue could definately work and sergeant stripes on the sleeve would kick ass too. Matbe throw a some red in on some pouches or something too in homage to the original.

Always been a fan!! and that is a great update! People tend to forget that in the toon he went head to head with SS more than SE did! Since I refuse to acknowledge RoC lol I will dub him Resolute Spirit!!

Really well done. Fits right in with the new look and pays appropriate homage to past incarnations.

It's a very solid update and ROC-ization of the character. It's certainly a good look for him, and less corny than his original "Village People" look (not that I didn't love that figure as a kid).

all that's missing are an eagle and a giant bow & arrow missile-firing weapon.

You know what, this adds a level of realism to the character for me. Hands down this is how the character should have evolved. Back in the day Indians trumped both ninjas and pirates and I love the original design.......but this is how I'd like my grown up version.

So cool.

It's totally Spirit, yet it's such a twist on the normal concept.

Brilliant....
