I was looking at the extra 25th figures in my parts box and thought Flint would be a cool conversion into Falcon. I tired to keep as close to the original as possible, dremeling his forearms and sculpting new cuffs and the lower skirt of his shirt. The shoulder straps are heavily modified from Flint. I used the Flint head for Falcon as I really don't like it for Flint,doesn't have that hardass look. But now the trouble is my custom Falcon looks cooler than my Flint and that can't be allowed to happen, so Flint is back to the surgical table.

I am working on Falcon's radio pack, I just need to get into the attic and look through my parts bin.

That is so awesome man. I would gladly have put down money for that if you had said it was a production figure. The painting is super smooth and you have definalty captured the feel of Falcon.

Those two figures are pure gold. Falcon is truly a masterpiece, but I also love the small differences on your Flint. The red paint on his shotgun shells, the gloves, the paint on the belt.

Come to think of it... How small is your paintbrush?

WOW!! There's no way I'd even try to copy that one -- way too cool. If I make a 25A Falcon I'm just keeping it to myself - since you already set the bar to high.

Are you saying that the forearms were Flint's originally and you just Dremeled them down? 8O

Wow. That's exactly what 25A Falcon should look like. And look Chief, they both have berets ;)

Ditto to what Dream said. That is probably the best Falcon custom I have ever seen. If you need an antenae BP, I may have an extra Recoil one that might substitute.

He's just plain AWESOME, you should be working for hasbro, the extra apps to Flint is great as well, fantastic job on them.

D**med that is great! I agree with everyone about him appearing to be production quality. I truly do love this custom. Your tweaks to Flint really bring out the details on him as well.

All I can say is.... More! I wanna see more.
