Another addition to my X-men collection. This time it's X-men's leader Cyclops. The X-men Classics version of Cyclops that was made was WAY too skinny. My custom Cyclops was made with a DC Universe Classics Gotham City 5 Superman body, with the X-men Classics Cyclops head. The pockets on the belt were taken from some extra belts I had from a Marvel Legends Bullseye, and the X on the chest came from a Marvel Legend Storm action figure. The optic blast in the posing picture was just some clear plastic cut from an action figure box and painted with clear red paint. Everything else was sculpted with Apoxie Fixit Sculpt.

Psylocke Action Figure
I started wanting to have a full collection of all the X-men in their costumes from the 90's. So I here now give you Psylocke. Although I thought Psylocke on the Marvel Legends line was decent, I decided that I was going to try to make a better one. My custom Psylocke was made from a Marvel Legends Psylocke head and a Marvel Legends Twin Pack Series 1 Elektra body. I made the Psylocke head to look more Asian and also gave her more of a ponytail style hair. The Elektra body was better proportioned as well as had hands that could hold a sword and psychic knife. The belt came from the original Psylocke, the sword came from the Elektra figure, and the hair and was sculpted. The psychic knife was something I bought on ebay while back and was repainted.

Killpack Action Figure
Another custom toy made from my friend Alex Smith's comic. The partner of Smith known as Killpack. Killpack was made from a Marvel Legends Sentry variant (the one with the beard) that I had on hand. I took a gun in holster and double barreled shotgun from a Marvel Legends Baron Zemo and Bishop. To check out more of my friend Alex's work check out the link below.

Goliath from Gargoyles Action Figure
I went on a phase of watching a bunch of Gargoyles episodes for nostalgic reasons. This inspired me to make my latest custom that went up for sale on Ebay. Here is my custom Goliath action figure from the cartoon Gargoyles series. I made it out of a Marvel Legends Beast, a Marvel Legends Lizard tail, and wings from the Marvel Legends build-a-figure Annihilus. This custom went on to a buyer in France.

Smith Action Figure
My most recent custom was for my friend Alex Smith. Alex has a comic book that he's been working on with characters based on himself and one of his friends. I decided to make action figures based on these characters. Agent Smith was made from a Marvel Legends Sentry head, and a Marvel Legends Bullseye body. Check out Alex's website below.
