I actually found a few extra Stalkers that I've been using as custom fodder. A little Goof Off and some Star Wars parts yielded General Hawk in his flight suit. I have a few more customs i'm working on using Stalker as a base also. [img] Attachment: Joes%20008.jpg [/img]Attachment: Joes 009.jpg [ 27.5 KiB | Viewed 2095 times ]

Utterly fantastic. Great great job on a figure they probably won't touch. |

I was never fond of the RAH fig though I had two of them as a kid but you did a good job of representing and breathing life into what I see as a stale figure. |

This is brilliant. I love this version, and you nail it! How did you make the helmet? The fighter pilot look is great, perhaps a bit dangerous to have all those straps around while using the jetpack, but at least he looks the part

Fix the first pic as I wanna see more of this teh awesomesorzz fig! I see parts from a lot of diff figs, StarKiller's hood/helmet and chest straps, Payload v1's helmetdome, Barrage's vest, Bossk or some other X-Wing flight suit guy's leg straps, and the jetpack from one of the ExoSquad Jump Troops. Friggin' beautimous. |

he looks great, I don't like the leg straps hanging but the rest is very cool. Does goof off remove the camo stripes pretty ez and not touch the base figures green color? Thanks |

Attachment: Joes2 001.jpg [ 21.9 KiB | Viewed 1536 times ] Attachment: Joes2 003.jpg [ 27.37 KiB | Viewed 1537 times ] Sorry it took so long for better pics. Had to unexpectedly go into work this weekend. Hopefully, I'll get Sci Fi and a few others posted tonight also. Thanks for the kind words. This is the first time I've shown any of my customs. I used to be a great fan of LBCs but now I'm trying my hand at painting, castings, etc. The stripes on the soft plastic (arms, lower legs) came off easily. The torso and upper legs were a different problem. I just kept applying a little Goof Off, rub, then rinse (multiple times.) I almost ran out of Q-Tips...

 Specgoddamntacular! As much as I love obscure characters and obscure versions of main characters, jetwing Hawk is easily overlooked and I'd never have imagined him done 25th Anniversary style. But I'm sure glad somebody DID think this up! And I LOVE the parts list, it's ingenius. There's nothing more satisfying to ME as a customizer than taking a lot of random elements and piecing them together to make a who'd-a-thunk-it work of art.  "LASER BLAST" yes, dude, this is way outside the box type thinking and I give you many many kudos on it. |
