Great job on Meowcles. If I didn't know I'd say it was a factory figure.

I always thought a Cobra throne room would be a cool playset but playset customs aren't really my thing. But the Boss Fight Stheno would not stand up well even with a stand so I thought I would print this cool snake throne for her. But if I have athrone I should have a room and I had this foam leftover from a home project. I've seen videos and pics of people doing this, surely I can do it too. Man some stone texture would be cool, but I don't have the patience to carve this much foam, I should just print some texture rollers. But while that's printing I catch a tic tok of some special effects folks making tombstones from this foam and they used a heat gun and water bottle to get a rough texture so nevermind the 14 hour prints of rollers. Grabbed some Dollar Tree backsplash stickers to add some detail and threw some extra print proofs in for background.

Figured I would pose ol Emperor Serpentor and his Queen on her throne. Didn't bargain on the Boss Fight figure having the neat chain mail skirt that inhibited the hip movement, so I removed it and quickly fashioned a skirt for modesty. The Zealots are never far from Serpentor and Stheno, ready to give their lives if necessary.

Fantastic! I love everything about this from the floor and wall details to all the props, even the guard usage is smart.

Lots of fun stuff! I saw that throne in the background of a pic and thought it was a Harry Potter maze ball stand I've seen before.

Fantastic set piece.

Talk about the guards a bit. What's the build on them?

Nothing custom except for weapon swaps. Those are Dark Elves from Thor: Dark World. Wish I could have found more when they came out.

I dont even want to call this an lbc, I just want to show off a nice Dollar Tree accessory.

Bought a fairy doll for these neat wings and pleasantly surprised to find the plug was a perfect fit for the Boss Fight, Hasbro, Marauder, Spiro current standard. I really dug this BF figure with the batlike wings but the fairy wings really sets her apart and not quite as monstrous.

My daughter says I should paint them but I'm not sure about that, thinking a purple wash to bring out those details might help.

After escaping to Isla Sorna with his created son, Venomous Maximus, Dr. Mindbender continued his attempts to duplicate Serpentor in the abandoned labs on the island. Chaos says life will find a way and the island became home to hundreds of mutated beings. The new races split into tribes and evolution proceeded at a rapid rate. The tribes began warring with one another and soon the island was too small. GI Joe sent a scout team in who reported their strange findings before radio failure forced them to survive on their own. The Marauders were sent on the suicide mission to rescue the "Dino Hunter" team. In doing so, they nabbed the wanted Dr. Mindbender as well and left the monsters on the island to destroy themselves.

Once in custody, Mindbender was examined and nursed back to health, although there was no reversing the side effects of his own experiments. The government faked the mad doctor's death and wisked him away to work on their own super soldier program. They threaten him with death but it's not needed, Dr. Mindbender is glad to have all of the technology at hand to continue his research.

Batman lower half, Spider-man torso, Fortnite arms, Boss Fight hand, Corps head, and Rolo candy foil for the scaley skin.

The effects of experimentation.

Almost back to normal.

The sickly Doc that was taken off the island vs the new improved healthy version.

Python Patrol version renamed Tinkerer, sick Doc, healthy Doc, and the poor clone version that was taken with the fall of Springfield.

This thing has been in the works for years. A simple Halloween skull decoration and a Star Wars vehicle smashed together with some foam core and hot glue. I designed the cannons and swivels to replace the rocket launchers but my resin prints were too brittle. I finally got a PLA printer and successfully printed these as my test pieces.ImageImageImageImageImageImage

I love that. I like the more skull less bot look. Sized perfect with the ship too.

That is excellent. I love the size.

I backed the Roboskull Kickstarter but I just know it’ll stay in the box cause it takes up so much space. This is something I could actually display

Thanks, I'm still on the look out for a more robotic skull for a V2 drone

This started before any Kickstarter murmurs. I have a larger skull with a hinged jaw and a TIE Fighter I want to put together but I don't have room either.

I'm really not a MOTU fan but cleaning out my shed last week, I came across this Chap Mei relic from the days of TRU and disposable income. If I had to pick a favorite MOTU character Cringer is a top runner. A little paint and now I have a Battle Cat.ImageImage
