I started this back in 2005 for a friend of mine. Finally got off my butt and finished it this summer. However, my scanner AC adapter died, so the only photo I have is from my phone.

His face plate is removable and has a Comic Pack Zap face underneath. I’ll try to get my friend to take more pictures of him.

If this had come out in 84 I'd have freaked out. Good job.

awesome in its simplicity.

my only suggestion would be that the black eyes and mouth dont look as perfect as i know you are capable of. get it together Smelcer!

Tape them off perhaps?

Way the go, man!
BAT V2 head works very good on IM, I'm very curious for the unmasked pics.
Nice work on the Laser Viper torso too.

So this is your newest custom since, how long ago?

Every time I used my Secret wars Iron Man figure against Cobra, I wish such a figure got made.
Well done!

Too late now. Out of my hands. That's the last part that I did too. Really wasn't looking forward to it. I original was going to carve the eyes. That was even worse :D

Thanks. I carved out the original face plate. Put in the Zap face, then used putty for the mask.

I actually have at least three others that I finished over the past 6-8 months, but haven't gotten around to taking pics/scans etc. Now that my scanner is on the fritz, I'll have to wait longer.

I like that it's an older looking version of Iron Man done O-ring style, the older version of these figures. He looks really good.
