But it is EXTREEEEEEME!

Yeah, so, I love the v1 Red Ninja. I have 12 of them now (...and always looking for more :shifty:). I usually shy away from doing direct recreation customs, since it just leaves me with an obsolete custom once Hasbro gets around to releasing an official version, but I figured this one was pretty safe. I added a few design tweaks.

And with some friends...

Very nice update. Exsactly how I would envision one in 25th style.

Brilliant part choices, for sure. The legs, the chest (did not expect to see that), the arms, everything just works together perfectly to bring him to the 25th style.

That is really impressive, man. You've managed to take a figure that was always a little weird and update it perfectly for 25th style.

Wow. I thought for sure you'd do something funky for the knee pads. You didn't and it actually made him look cooler. The torso is a great choice. I really addition of the elbow pads. It breaks up the length of the arms but fits the outfit design pretty well.

Oh and I think you're safe from Hasbro making him. :D

Somehow I've left this guy off my enormous to-do list but your take has compelled me to add him in. That's a really striking figure. Sure the colors are weird, but they really pop and go together well somehow.

The Quick Kick hands make it perfect.

I believe the french have a word for it but it escapes me... "ugly beautiful"
