I've collected a few POTC figures. The lack of articulation and the pea heads were a major let down, because this line could have been so great. So, I've decided to correct the problems. I started with Will Turner. He got a resized head and much needed articulation in the form of ARAH arms and new-sculpt legs. He also sports a Greedo vest. Will is play-ready.

Great stuff, man. You've really been kicking out some great work!

I like the newly resized head the most.

That's what I'm talking about! Great use of parts to bring ol' Will back from the land that articulation forgot. Not that I dislike the POTC figures. I love them a lot and have them all; and they're packed with play value, but they could have thrown us fans a bone or two like your Will.

Very nifty. Though like many, I bought pretty much all of these, but it would have been too cool if they were released in this format.

I would have gone all out on PotC customs if they had released a Flying Dutchman playset - I even made a Jack Sparrow MM (never got round to painting it) - but banished it because of the abortion that was At world's end. What a suckfest.

John,
Looks great. I thought he looked really cool in person and the figure translated really well from real life to the web. I love these shots of him on the ship as well.
Again Great Job!
Dave
