you have 120 RIA figures? wow!

Anyways, some of these look really cartoony. Maybe repaint some of the heads to look a bit more realistic, more human-like.

Impressive collection. I really like the guy with the SE54 body and red headband in particular.

That red-headed guy to the right of the blonde girl looks just like Jimmy Olsen. Who's head is that?

not sure. I got a handful of heads from Broken Arrow toys and Killuminati at Joecon. these are the result. I think the USE head witht he red bandanna is supposed to be Solid snake. another head in there is Ash i think. Most of the female heads are from the Guru planet Spylounge Agent Anika line. (a little dremeling)

when I get some paints I will be adding some highlights to the uniforms, and maybe correcting the heads/ faces.

now that you mention it NFC, some of the faces do look a bit cartoonish.

sorry if that sounded really critical, I wasn't intended that way. :-/



I'm still floored at the idea of the 120 reactive impact figures in one place. That's crazy.

isnt that the point of the critiques?

Im thinking maybe the whites of the eye are a bit too large, plus I used a technical pen to do the pupils. So maybe some slight adjustment of the area around the eyes and smaller pupils.

but yeah, It started with those first five (the bottom pic) and just spread from there. when they got discounted at TJX, plus a chinese seller had them for cheap, i just went to town. and between head swaps, reapints, star wars heads Broken arrow Toys and Slayers designs.. I had an army.
