These are cool each time I look them over.

One question, is the Lady P you mention actually Lady Penelope from Thunderbirds?

nicely done, alot of work with all that red.I think this is the neatest team you've done so far, all look like production quality work.
How long did it take to finshe them all btw?

The color is actually British Crimson. Thanks for the comments, it took about 2 weeks off & on to finish & about another couple of days to "touch up" missed spots.

"Critique" would be the wrong term; "adoring praise" is more appropriate. I love everything you've done with these customs: the color scheme, the paint, the character designs, the consistency of the overall look...the whole thing is fantastic. The concept is really cool, too, and incorporates a bunch of interesting elements. It definitely encapsulates what made the first year or two of the Joe line so great. I really can't say enough good things about these figures: they're production-quality, except that it's hard to imagine a present-day toy company releasing anything this ambitious. Outstanding work, and I'll be looking forward to the rest of the individual shots.

Oh, and what head did you use for Dylan? That's an excellent Carl Weathers likeness!

Thanks for all the nice adjectives, I really mean it. You humble me, I appreciated. The head is a cast from OnyxPhoenix. He does an excellent with his casts. Check him out.

Not really, but that is an excellent idea. I like it.

This is a super fun idea and I love the Bond over/undertones.

Just how many of these commandos did the old man sire?

Finally here are the last but not least 00 Commandos : The Staff
Image
1st up : Lady Penelope Sansfield aka Lady P (002) - Director
Was the 1st female to receive the top 00 status : 007. She is a no-nonsense , bottom line, no excuses & end results type of person.. She would rather be out in the field dealing with the enemy than behind the desk dealing with the bureaucrats. Although, she is a master at handling both, her heart lies out in the trade while her head keeps her in the office. All of her inner circle carry modified lugers which can be only fired by its owner.
Image

Image
Image
Next : Valya (The Terrible) - Bodyguard
Personal Bodyguard of Lady P , never leaves her side & would gladly die for the Lady. No know what her background is although speculation is she was rescued from a Russian sex slave ring by Penelope on one of her last missions or she is P's daughter by an Russian agent that P had to get out of Russia once the agent was killed. One thing is certain, you don't want to cross her . Expert in the Russian martial arts: Systema & Sambo as well as other fighting techniques. One mean lady!
Image
Image
Image
Image
Last (for now) : Sansfield - Director-Q Branch
Former retired head of the British Army Science Division. Was happy tending his garden where his sister called him persuaded him to run the Q branch of MI-7(actually she told him she would release his naked baby pictures out on the internet). One of the most brilliant scientific mind in the world. Inventor of the "Omega Chip" - all commandos have this "chip" implanted in their system. With this chip the body can be shut down to resemble death or it can actually kill the agent if necessary. If the chip is removed from an agent's body by force, in 5 seconds it will detonate with enough force to level a city block. Only both Sansfields have the code to deactivate the Omega chip.

Well, here is the group for now. Look them all over & let me know what you think.

Sansfield perfectly looks the part. What is the head? And did you sculpt the hair? The look is just so fitting

I appreciated you saying that. With all the great customs on this board, I humbled you think that about this project. It is one of my favorites as well.
