This was made especially for a custom swap with SGCaper. I've been wanting to make a ninja for his ATR verse for a long time and this was the opportunity to finally get it done. There were a couple things from the original figure that I wanted to fix (that could be said about most of the Ninja Force figures).

I never liked the pink/purple for a ninja so I went with the more traditional dark blue. While the original mask is cool, again I went with the traditional hood instead. I painted the rising sun on it because he's a Rising Sun Ninja. I cut his signature ponytail off too. Didn't need any zombies grabbing a handful of locks. My biggest gripe was that the guy is a world premier nunchaku master, more so than even Nunchuk, but he didn't even come with a nunchucks accessory. Well, I think I fixed those problems and made it so he could blend in the ATR universe.

This custom is fantastic, but that hood is a thing of beauty.

I like the colors and the mask/hood is great. Only issue I see is the legs look a bit small looking compared to the torso

Everything rocks, except for that Duke head, really cool work on the mask.

Having this in hand I gotta say the pics do not do it justice. This thing is pure art. It's wicked.

I love how he's a rising sun Ninja with a blatantly Japanese mask, but then you take the mask off and he's this ridiculously blonde white guy.

I always have a hard time with the ROC Duke head used for anything but Duke.

However, this is a great figure and a massive improvement over the original design. I'm not familiar with your universe, but this figure (to me) also has a POC feel to it. Any plans for any of the other ninja to get a redesign?
