I have wanted to make this custom for a long time. I always liked Firestorm's design even though it is a bit dated today,I tried this before with a Microman body ,But once I seen the new MU Dr.Strange I knew that I had the perfect base.(Just had to wait to find one.)Recipe is SDS Head,Upper body Dr.Strange, lower legs are MU Falcon and MU Cyclops.Hope that you enjoy and leave comments.

Enjoy, I do indeed.

Very impressed by how well the red took to those Cyclops calves and Doc Strange arms.

That is some outstanding paintwork, both in the application of uncooperative colors, and the very well done logo. Nicely done!

Totally agree. I was sitting here trying to figure out where the yellow and red parts came from.

Very nice. I'm a big fan of (Ronnie Raymond) Firestorm and this is a good one. The Strange fig was indeed a perfect base. I just may steal this recipe. Btw even though the costume is dated i still prefer it to the new costume.

Thanks for the comments everyone! I would have preferred to have had a clear Dr.Strange to work with but at $30+ dollars I went with the far cheaper retail version. Also forgot to mention that I used Nightcrawler parts on the torso as well, Grafted to the torso with super glue and Aves apoxie sculpt. And Robulus I also prefer the original to the suit being used now.
