Wanted to make some "ultimate" versions of some popular characters. Here's what I came up with. Head on Steeler is from Spartan 1:18, and was painted by him. Still need to find a communication pack for Dial Tone.

These are really well done. Simple, clean paint work. Nice parts combinations and usage including some parts you don't see often. And keeping Steeler's giant ARAH visor is a great choice.

These are all super-legit!

Spirit is awesome, but I agree with Tim - I'd buy that Doc!

All are great but that Doc is an update that needs to be mass produced.

a) All of it is super well put together and cleanly painted. Really great work. The figures are made extremely well. The following comments are character-specific and 100% opinion based ;)
b) Doc and Spirit are near perfect representations.
c) I'm not in position for input on Dial Tone. Never cared for the character, never had the figure.
d) Steeler was, is, and always will be my favorite Joe. And the original clean design always resonates with me, so modern interpretations always miss the mark for me. Here for me, that might be the best head choice I've ever seen for the character. From original on down through every custom I've ever seen. And we all know the 25th head blows. Helmet is great, figure is great, and is a fine update... but... I would kill to see that head and helmet on a modern figure recreation of the original outfit...
e) You've come a long way as a customizer in a short time. Keep it up, I love it.
f) That is all.
g) hi jm70

Spirit and Doc are home runs for me. Doc especially, I keep giving mine too much gear and then I don't like it. Yours really keeps that clean OG look. Steeler also solid, what head is that? Looks like a lice creepy tom cruise.

My only real critique is dialtone's vest. It just seems to sit weird on him, I bet if you boil it and put it on him it might shape to fit better.
