This wave is the last of the regular cast, plus a variant Security Guard:

Wave 3:

Captain Black:

Captain Grey:

(I will explain the item in his left hand at the end of the thread :wink:


Captain Magenta:

You have no idea how long it took to get that shade of paint how I wanted it :lol: :cry: :cry:


Captain Ochre:

Image


Doctor Fawn:

Image

I deliberately left the holster off this figure. Fawn would be considered a non-combatant under the Geneva Convention, and I am assuming whatever equivalent exists in 2068. I also did an alternate head with a Spectrum issue cap:

Spectrum Security:

Image

It was always my intention to do two Spectrum Security figures. I may still do a couple more and try to do a dio-story.


Mk II Mysteron Detector:

Image

I upgraded the pistol to an advanced model Heckler & Koch SOCOM pistol and gave Scarlet and Blue an advanced model Taser. The detector was next. I got the idea for the basic look from an episode of Mythbusters where thay were using a handheld thermal imaging camera. I Frankensteined three different accessories together and made a mold and cast the result in resin.

Thanks, but the whole set of 31 figures is actually the culmination of three months worth of customising. There are still 9 finished figures to showcase next week.

One thing I should explain here. When the Mysterons want to carry out a mission, they kill someone related to that mission and replicate the. The replicant can recover from most injuries, but can be killed instantly by electricity. They are also impervious to x-rays. If an x-ray is taken of a Mysteron replicant, it will show up as a normal photograph. That was how the detector was developed. My version is far less bulky than teh one on teh show.
