Okay, wow...totally didn't see the Hitler thing with the original stache.
Is this better?

Thanks for pointing that out, guys.
As for the questions...

I kinda wish I'd have made a removeable harness for my Zap & SF instead of sculpting them on -- how did you do yours?

How did you make or what is the harness from for him and SF?
Those harnesses started out as this accessory...
http://www.yojoe.com/access/d03/203.shtml...and the one I made for Fuze isn't quite as cool as Zap's (Zap's can actually be fastened with the jury-rigged clasps, Fuze's is Krazy Glued together). I consider Zap's the way to do it.
Essentially, cut the straps off the chute with a little extra flap of thin plastic on each. Then cut the rounded knobs off the bottom of the chute with little anchors of plastic left at the bottoms. Then drill holes in those thin flaps and insert the anchored knobs. Instant fasteners. I also dipped the whole rig in boiling water and shaped it to the torso a bit before hitting it with some cool water to lock the shape in. Then I spray painted it. I'll be doing Fuze's harness over with the improved method, so if anyone with casting ability wants that prototype (I think a cast version wouldn't need to clasp if it was a flex material), give me a holler.

but where's the bazooka from?
That's a Microman Chirico Cuivie (SP?) accessory. I just spray painted the blue/gray parts OD.

you're planning on doing the whole O13, right?
Nope. I did these two because I haven't seen any accessories Hasbro could easily repurpose in order to knock out their own versions any time soon (probably won't stop them from doing the figures, but I should have some time). I'll be doing Clutch and Steeler next, since I'm just not sure how the big H would tackle those two. But there's no need for me to do a Grand Slam or a Wild Bill since I've already seen how great Hasbro's will look. I'll probably tweak their Rock n' Roll (like I did their Hawk) and their Breaker (before replacing my own custom with that figure whenever I find it), but honestly the stuff Hasbro has been cranking out makes me wish I weren't so impatient so I wouldn't have to customizze the characters they haven't gotten around to yet.
I love this line.
