BFS delivered their Zorro wave earlier this month, so that got me to tinkering. First off, I did a Lone Ranger based on Dime Novel parts previously. But was never thrilled with him. Something wasn’t right. So I took a Zorro base body, swapped in some blue knee joints and blue tight sleeved arms, and then the head and accessories from my prior Ranger. The result is what I wanted from the start

And with the old body for comparison

With Zorro the main thing I’ve done so far is to swap in an Antonio Banderos head for a movie likeness

Other stuff - got this Mezco King Kong. In its designed scale, trust me, it’s sweet. But I really like him this way

Damn. I was going to use my single-carded Zorro for a Princess Bride Westley custom, but now you've got me thinking.. But best I keep my Ranger with the bib shirt, since it was already different from yours (and the tv show, clearly.)

Is that the Spy Kids Banderas head? I was thinking about using that, too -- but now I won't do it because you Chadmatted me

Lastly, now you've got me wanting to get that Kong. How big is he next to an MU/BFS/etc fig? Are there alt heads or just the savage-looking one?

the ab head is great. jou killed my fadgar.

tiny kong...donkey kong?

I’ll get you better pics of Kong in a second.

I don’t think it’s the Spykids head. It’s a recent shrink by Spartan 118.

2Dark - yeah I wanted a shot to show off his spurs... wait...

Here’s one I call “Securing the Cantina”

Chief, here are some details on Kong. And 2Dark, since serendipity had a barrel already on my desk, there’s one in here for you too

Nice. Guess I'll be looking to get that Kong.

And that Geralt is looking pretty great. I need to finish mine one of these days. I started it before the show came out, now I'm rethinking my design to make it more Cavill-y.

Check out Hot Topic online for Kong. There was a 30% sale on him when I got him but I think there’s a 30% coupon you can use if sale is over

It was a crossover episode that aired once on a local station in Akron. Some say it was later seen in the early '80's on eastern European TV but so far there is no proof to back up this claim.
