Pretty cool. I like projects like this, it really brings out the creativity in some people.


Just a note for the creator of this though...just coz the figure came with a stupid looking spring loaded missile launcher, doesn't mean you have to pose the figure with it.

I seen people build bases out of old computer shells, but this is the first time I've ever seen someone do what JoeMichaels70 does but with household items.

I linked it on my D&J Toys page. I thought people on the list there might would be interested in this idea. It is pretty cool.

Upcycling should be a Group project. I've always wondered what this group could do with a will and the contents of a recycling box.

Aweseme idea and very solid execution. I should dig out my old stereo/computers and see what I can create!

The cool thing is, if I'm reading it correctly, he made this for his kids. So maybe kids DO play with those stupid launchers after all.
