Hey folks,

Here's my take on Flint in Cobra disguise, inspired by the 25th version.

It required some modding to get rid of the neck ball, and a few coats of paint as the original figure had yellowed over time.

I can't seem to apply the stickers nice and smooth - how do you guys do?? It always looks a little bubbly on my figures, I don't know how to lay it flat.

Anyway, I hope you like it!

Nice execution on this one. The idea is so simple it betrays the seamless modifications that went into it.

Very simple and extremely effective. Can the head be moved? There is a way to do it, I have done it with some of my customs.

Yes the head can be moved laterally (like the first vintage joes). I just got rid of the neckball and put Flint's head on a vintage neck joint.

A removable/alternate head would make this thing amazing. Its a great looking figure. I love how even not looking at the head, you can tell it's Flint.

Very nice, even better there is no visible joint where the two were joined.
