Another 80's/90's legendary villain: The Shredder!

This look is based on his appearance in the cartoon and his original toy. He still needs some more spikes added (any suggestions?) but I'm really happy with how he looks.

Arctic Storm Shadow was the base with a PP Storm Shadow head carved down a bit so the Mars Trooper helmet could fit over it. Slowly trying to improve some sculpting skills so the crown portion of the helmet is green stuff.

The shoulder armor is part of a ROC Viper armor cut in half, with a waist belt from a Ms. Marvel figure.

I probably won't do too many TMNT characters, but I've got an idea for Krang and his android body...

Looks great so far. For added spikes try cutting the tips off of the bullets from a Roadblock bullet belt.

I think Raven Spawn has hook like spikes that would work well for this figure. Nice work. Looks very classic Shredder. Maybe a MU Magneto cape to finish?

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

His hand-claws are the three-claw weapons from the Arctic Storm Shadow cut down. Tried cutting up the left over blades into additional spikes but they were just too small to work with/glue to the armor.

Not sure if I want to do a cape, it would have to be plastic as I abhor fabric on my figures. I used the neck piece to at least suggest it if I don't end up adding a full cape.

Magneto is a good suggestion though!
