Custom of the year, right here. This is absolutely beautiful! This is what I wanted the Toxo-Lab to be when I saw it on the shelves, and even more so after I saw that concept drawing for it that's been floating around for a while. The parts choices, the paint job, the labels...everything about this is perfect. I would sprint to the car and break every traffic law to get to the store if this was available. I hope you don't mind having this idea duplicated, because I need one of these in my own home. Amazing work!

Have at it man.

I really only make customs to fill holes in my collection and crack recipes for others to replicate them.

I really can't rave enough about the Industrial Complex set.

Very versatile easy to configure in any way you want.
And painted fairly easy.

Granted neon green and florescent orange aren't easy to begin with...both needed a base coat of white...but the purple was a dream.

:slow clap:

well done, sir.

That is fantastic. My biggest issue with the actual toxo lab is that it feels like half a playset. This goes a long way to correct that.

This is a perfect use of the Fresh Retro Scene In Box set. Well done.

That is hideous and burns my eyes - in other words, you nailed the '90's Joe aesthetic perfectly! Great job!

I freaking love it. You're tempting me to buy neon paint and go to town on my Joytoy modular play sets. I do love the eco-toxo-90's kitsch.
edit to say:I don't mean "kitsch" as an insult. I do honestly freakin' love the weirdness of that time period. As a kid it made me stop collecting but as an adult I see what they were going for and I love it for how unique and eye-catching it s.
