He's tangled with the X-men, slugged it out with the New Mutants, gone toe to toe with Nick Fury, and wears a suit of cybernetic armor. No, it's not Dr Doom....it's Baron Karza! This body-stealing tyrant hails from the Microverse and has caused all sorts of trouble in the Marvel Universe. His head is a Trigate Creations custom cast, main body of a Superhero Showdown Colossus, lower legs from a M.A.R.S. mech, and various armor fodder. His Andromeda centaur form was created using a Master Gundam Horse body and fodder parts so his upper torso can pop off and attach to it. Add some cool details like a bendy whip tail made from a Creech hair tendril, some spikes/plugs from Koto's Modeling Support Goods, and he was ready to do battle!

"Death was no longer an obstacle for the Axis forces and the Japanese were working hard to develop new technology, even if that meant going back to the mystic arts. Combining ancient magics, dragon DNA, and Darwin's lost Evol-serum, they revived Hideki Tojo. This 'Dragon General' was more ruthless than before and required the spinal fluid of his victims to constantly regenerate himself making him almost impossible to kill. What new horrors would await the Allied forces next?"

This figure was made from:

Head: Custom Trigate Creations cast
Body: Indiana Jones Russian General guy
Hands: FFVIII Bahamut
Lower body: Resident Evil 4 Verdugo

I wasn't sold on Karza until I saw the centaur pic. That sealed it. Colossus works really well as the base body for him.

General Tojo as a Dragon? You win. Hands down, you win.

I am a very long term Micronauts fan and I love your take on Karza. That armour just rocks. The centaur version completely blew me away.
How did you do the red bits on his chest and abdomen? They look incredible.
The only critique I have, and it isn't something you did, is that the lower portion of the Trigate head seems to look a little bit like a beak.

General Tojo is one of the more interesting customs I have seen for some time. It looks really excellent. .

I am really looking forward to seeing your takes on Acroyear and Churchill.

Thanks! The red bits are just the Koto Modeling Support goods parts (gundam ports) painted silver and given 2 coats of Tamiya clear red. The lower mouth is a grate, like a knight's helmet I guess? Looks regular from close up.
