I really hadn't planned on doing any kind of customizing to the new 25th anniversary figures. However the more I looked at them the more I decided to do some alterations...Namely the heads. I still plan on doing most of the my customs in the JvsC style and see the 25th anniversary figures as a line that gives me cartoon/comic accurate versions of the characters and my customs are more real world/modern version.

Anyway, not much done here just simply turned these two heads into ball-joints and then repainted them. I went for a less gritty style on these to match the more comic look of the line overall

Enjoy

Nice!

I thought about using that RB head to fix mine, since I like it so much, but went with the Comic Pack version instead (I use ST Roadblock heads for too many customs already.) Duke looks 1000% better with the new head.

If you beef-up Duke's neck, you'll have a winner for use.
Roadblock looks great.

Nice Roadblock fix. I'm debating on whether to use that head or the comic pack head on mine. They both seem to work well.

Duke's head is good too, but the neck seems a little long. Not sure what you can do about that.

Thanks guys, glad you like them. I think you could really go with the comic pack head and it would look great too. I had considered using that one first but couldn't find one online to buy so decided to go with what I had available.

All in all I really love these figures,with and without my changes.

Like I said elsewhere. This pose is so the Marvel Issue 22 pose from our youth. Great job on these guys. You made them great. I can see them as no nonsense, tough as nails butt kickers.
