I've had a busy weekend this weekend, and I got several things done. A couple of familiar faces finally finished off, and my first ever 25th Anniversary custom:

Dr Mindbender

Image
Image

I also applied some of my previous feedback and finished off Airtight, toning down the crazy a bit but still maintaining some of his personality I think:

Image
Image
Image

I also went back and made my Snow Job's hood truly removable:

Image
Image

This one, my Cobra Internal Affairs agent, I conceptualized a few years ago, melted the original on accident, and just finished up this weekend. Nothing flashy, but he fills a spot in my army:

Image
Image

And yet another Wild Weasel... I don't know why I keep making new versions of him, but it's a character I like to mo. This is just a simple hollowed out helmet for him

Image
Image

Unless I get anyone pointing out some glaring mistake I made, I think they are all ready for the gallery... What d oyou think?

Well I commented on these before, but your Mindbender Rocks!! (gay as he may be.... :P)

Love what you did with SJ's hood as well -- I think I'll give that one a try.

But yeah, I think they're all ready for prime time - submit them [LASER BLAST]!

Very nice work on these. Mindbender and Wild Weasel look almost like production figures!

Mindbender is exactly how I hope Hasbro does their 25th version of him. You made an awesome fig there.

Beautiful job on Mindbender. Looks excellent. Might have a go at something similar.

Nice job Lance! I like them all but my fav has to be Snow-Job. Love how you adapted the hood. Got to share your secrets. I've been contemplating using balloon rubber to try a similar effect but not too sure it it will work.

Mindbender simply rocks my socks. Flawless work.

And you know how much I enjoy this Airtight. With the tweaks, he's even better.

Removable hood on Snow Job is inspired.

Great work all around.

Wow, Mindbender is even more ripped than his original figure. I always thought it was kind of odd he was so built, but then what do I know about orthodontists?

Thanks for the comments everyone! I was very pleased with how Mindbender came out, and I was lucky I had that cape on hand...

Actually the hood is the findertip of a rubber glove that I swiped from the doctor's office... :D I have been a big time proponent of balloon use though. They work well for a lot of things. I've done t-shirts, skirts, Snow Job's ski cap and hood, a bandana on my alt time frame GP Breaker, the neck piece on Airtight up there, pants on my alterna-joe Domino and an entire outfit for this... thing:

It can be sort of hard to work with, because if you stretch it too much it'll rip, but you sort of get the hang of it. If you get the long skinny balloon animal balloons, they make good caps, and I should think it would be an easy way to add balaklavas to just about any figure...
