Miles Mayhem: VENOM Commander Head: Trigate Torso: Bazooka Modified Arms: Crimson Guard Legs: Tunnel Rat Jacket Skirt: two skirts from and Indiana Jones Russian Trooper glued together and cut Viper Mask: Trigate Sly Rax: VENOM Mechanic Head: Heavily Modified Beachhead Torso: Snake-eyes Arms, jacket: Indiana Jones Mutt Williams Legs: Gung Ho Chains: craft store chain Stiletto Mask: Trigate Just for fun, the future Piranha 2.0... Once an ally of Matt and Andy Trakker, Miles Mayhem founded a private military company devoted to maintaining peace and working with the world governments. Mayhem became consumed with the pursuit of power and decided why aid the governments when he could use the technology their company possessed to carve out his own piece of the world. Caught in the act of downloading the company's vehicle and gear schematics, Mayhem slew Andy Trakker and escaped with only half of the schematics. Establishing VENOM, the Vicious Evil Network of Mayhem, Miles came to the attention of Cobra Commander. The Commander desired to replace his longtime collaborator Destro, but did not want to lose access to the weapons of Destro's MARS organization. Mayhem, along with his chief mechanic Sylvester "Sly" Rax created some of Cobra's deadliest vehicles, such as the RAGE tank and the Condor jet. |

Miles looks fantastic. I'd buy that right quick. I don't like how high the mask sits on Sly's head. Actually, I think that might be the mask's fault too since the goggles of it are so high on top of the mask. It would have to sit way lower on the body for it to look right. |

Those are both top notch figures. Perfect heads, too. |

Both re perfect imho. I would buy them both if they were in stores. Any plans to try your hand at a switchblade copter for Miles? |

Beautiful work and that Sly Rax beats the hell out of the custom one in Toyfare. |

These aren't just a lot of fun, they're exceptionally done and truly faithful to their inspirations. Can't wait to see their rides when finished. |

Awesome. The sculpting (not surprisingly) is out of this world. If not for the size of the Miles torso, I might not believe Bazooka was the base. On Sly, that's the unmasked BH you used for the head, right? When I read a modified BH, I gasped... then realized I can see the comic pack unmasked version in there... I think. |

Great takes on both, but Miles is my favorite. I too would buy him in a heartbeat if he was available at retail. |

Awesome work ! You didn't miss a detail. Mayhem is my favorite of the two and thats not taking away anything from Sly Rax. Just the amount of work in the torso alone gets you a round of applause I hope to see more M.A.S.K team members from you and hopefully an updated trakker the way he should have looked. |

Yep, the Beach Head head is the unmasked comic pack, with the shades and hair sculpted on. Is the one in Toyfare the Kyle Robinson version? I haven't seen it yet. There will be more coming. I have a nice selection of Trigate's MASK parts, just need to finish the figures. I got the Blaster helmet for Hondo, so I should have him up soon. |
