Another fusion, this time of the unproduced '97 Cobra Commander (a repaint of the battle helmet ARAH figures in darker colors and a bronze faceplate) and the GIJCC Cobra Commander (in a flight suit).

That is really slick looking. I even like the use of the Naboo Guard pistol here.

Love it. Been trying to decide how I'd want to tackle the protoype colors Cobra Commander, this is a great take.

Thanks.

I didn't even know what the pistol was, so I'm glad you knew. I just looked into my fodder pile for the thing most "Megatron" like in appearance.

At 50, I've come to the realization that I've probably got another decade or so left in customizing. (Hopefully more, though.). There are some characters that I want to make multiple versions of, so it occurred to me that combining them might be a good way to speed things up.

Plus, others have already put the unused '97 color scheme on battle helmet CC (in every format), so it just made sense to try it on a different uniform.

I might have better using up one of the 25A heads to fully lock it in as CC. But they don't look that great, and this one is somewhat unique as it doesn't have a helmet.

It looks enough CC but there should be some helmets that would work on it.

I would of never gotten the color and figure tie ins. With that info it totally becomes CC.

If you ever make metal ARAH V1 Cobra Commander heads, like you did with Destro, let me know. One of those would look good on this figure.

I think this is pretty cool. The orange face shield is really fun

I don't think I'll be able to do any metal casting. There is too much that goes with it to just do it on a small scale. I was just showing my oldest granddaughter my metal destro heads, and explaining how rare they are.

Even if someone wanted to get a jeweler to make a mold and cast some, I don't think it would be worth the $$ they would charge. I was able to do it because I had access to all the equipment and master jewelers to guide me.

I think I only sold 2 brass heads both rhodium plated.
