I really like this for SF. Zap out of Bazooka, then Grandslam using the same body looks great.

He's not. He's looking for his "Magic Wand".

The team captain picked Downtown before him in the Joes' pickup basketball game, so he's telling that guy off. :-}

Perhaps he is grasping for HIS "magical short fuse".

Regardless, the fig has potential, with the fuzzy pic its tough to see the details of the face. My moneys on it working out well.


Short Fuse kicks Downtown's butt!

added a better pic, really easy Bazooka body with a repainted US Harry Potter head, and he's not touching his t-hook anymore

I'd love to see a group shot of him with the Zap (Bazooka that came with the Quickstrike) and Grandslam

Nice use of the Harry Potter head.

I have yet to see any of the Harry Potter figures (probably only available overseas), I SOOO wanted to make a ZZ Top-loving Dreadnok from that Dumbledore figure...

Much better pictures. The only suggestion I could offer, would be to give him a gotee to age the face a little. Not sure if that would take away from the character for the purists out there. It looks good as is, I just imagine him a little more seasoned, however many do not.

Hey that IS pretty sharp... Did you have to do any mods to the head to get it to fit the torso?
