i love metal head. he is one of my favorite cobra characters. this is THE metal head figure and i only have one critique......which i feel bad even saying but i will anyways......with all due respect of course.......why no targating reticle over his eye on his goggles? i always liked the reticle on his goggles........that being said and out of the way where are the sweet a$$ fire trails from? did u make them or buy them from somewhere? are they from the iron man 2 toys? (i know they had alot of different blast affects with those which i love) well like i said hope i wasnt too harsh i love this figure and have been debating making my own 25th metal head and this deffinately inspires.

I agree. The mods to the head are great but that dio shot is a thing of beauty.

The blasts are from one of the Iron Man figures.

That's as 'bout as good as it can be.

Don't change a thing (unless you're thinking about adding the targeting reticule)...

Not a fan of the pink skin...looks like he's been sun-burned.

otherwise he's quite on par for what I'd expect from you.

I noticed the pinkish skin as well. It might be the lighting though. That is a great figure otherwise. Really good eye for parts as well. Also, the missiles firing are awesome and he needs a targeting reticule. Just sayin' :-D

I think it's a mix of the lighting and being next to red paint, the skintone looks normal in real life.

Your skin probably would look like that if you had rockets firing directly in front of your face.


Top notch work as always, I'm not a fan of the City Strike SE torso for Metalhead, seems too skinny or something, but the legs work a lot better than I'd have thought. What did you make the webgear out of?

It's a mishmash of webgear from various figures. I like how he turned out, but I should have used Death Adder as a base.
