I don't know who Skymate is, but good work on him.

Skymate is the one Aussie Joe. I thi k he was in the Sky Commandos line that came with gliders.

Very cool. Funny thing is i'm making a super mario, and that skymate head would be perfect for a non arah version.

Yeah these guys were sold with those gliders that came out in the 90s. Great job on these. I really wouldn't mind seeing them updates.

Very cool...and I like the use of the foldable Retaliation Storm Shadow bow. I've been putzing with just formulating parts recipes (since I don't really have the budget for real-life customizing) and that bow really sold me on trying to do something with Skymate. The accessory choices on both figures are amazing and really capture the looks of the originals perfectly.

Those are cool and I never expected to see a SkyMate done.

The bow is what got this moving when I was asked to make a Skymate. The fact that it folded and had the peg on spot sealed the deal.

It really is a very smart use of that accessory. It fits the character very well. I'm not sure the red is that much better than the hot pink but it is a step in the right direction for sure.

Night vulture is good. The sculpting on the shoulder looks really well done.

I originally was going to do the flip up visor on Skymate, but it looked sooooooo bad. Hence the goggles.

All your choices with Skymate were spot on. You made him and Night Vulture -- two characters I was worse than apathetic about -- look quite enticing.

Wow! These are both awesome! Definitely a 2 pack I would pick up!!
