25th Eels Custom Figure

carnage717 · **Posted:** Sat Jul 05, 2008 6:47 pm

I got some cast parts in from Mastergunz I got off of ebay so I went ahead and finished this one up today. I had originally planned to make a Plauge version of the Eels but I went ahead and just made the normal figures. If at some point we get an actual Eels figure Ill probably change this one over to the Plauge version.

Parts:
Head: Storm Shadow 25th
Arms: Armor Cobra Commander 25th
Legs & Torso : Seal 25th
Acccessories and Helmet: Mastergunz cast parts.

Fantastic work on him. Hope we get one as good from Hasbro (I know this is said a lot but I totally mean it).

Ah, the Eel. That was one of my childhood favorites. This custom is excellent.

the Eel is my favorite Cobra fig. And you did him proud Carn. You didn't happen to make molds of those parts before you used them did you? :shifty:

The arms are an inspired choice. I was sitting here looking at it trying to figure it out before looking at the parts list and all I could come up with was, "Now how did he do that?" I like the way the SS head gives him an additonal frogman mask along with those evil eyes. One of my favorite 25th customs so far.

Very nice! The choice of arms makes the fig IMHO.

I hope Hasbro takes a page from your book for the wave 11 Eel that is coming.

Heh, when I first got BACC, I think I posted in a thread about him that I could see Hasbro using his arms on the Eels. Now that I've seen yours, I think they could use your exact recipe and give us a killer figure. Great job!

Carn needs to quit the engineering business and go to work for Hasbro! Great work!

He`s perfect! Great choice using the BACC arms! Hope Hasbro makes one down the line, he was always a favorite of mine!
