Thanks. Yep that Wild Bill torso worked out even better than I thought it would. I just had to decide to either go cartoon or movie colors...I went cartoon to stick with the other customs.

Awesome! I'm glad. This whole project has been a blast of nostalgia for me. Glad to have another Sectaur fan. The cartoon and toys were so great and some of my favorites as a kid. Glad to add the final four to the incredible ones Zicatoys made.

I loved the comic especially. It was one of the few toy-based comics from childhood that just told good stories. It wasn't dumbed-down, it wasn't treated as a throwaway by the artists because it was just a "toy book." It's just a solid comic.

I wanted to add Jem to this project since the beginning. Sculpting the hair and the dress was a nightmare and I don't know that I'm 100% happy with it, but it'll do for now.

The comics were great! The cartoon was really good too. I wish we had gotten more than just the 5 episode miniseries.

Thanks. I really appreciate that. It was tough to envision how to go about it but once I got started it went pretty smooth.

that much hair isn't easy. i've done a couple, but they didn't look half as good. i have tried sculpting alice coopers hair about 5 times and still no go.

Spiral Zone was one of those cartoons I never really got into as a kid and never had any of the action figures. I really only gave the cartoon a good viewing because of this project and found it surprisingly really good. They would have been a great sub-unit of GI Joe similar to Battle Force 2000 in my opinion.

Thanks! All of the episodes for the cartoon are on YouTube. They are worth watching at least a couple of episodes.

The Centurions were one of my favorite cartoons and toylines as a kid. Always wanted them in scale with the Joes.

I'm especially happy with these guys as the gear comes from all over the place to try and match the vintage figures. I've tried to lay out the vintage equipment to really display everything.
