CUSTOM MOTU CLAWFUL

This was one of the first big hand figures from MOTU.  Fisto was second then the chinaman.  I forget his name.

He needed a new chestpiece so Ray went to work
Clawful is basically a giant crab.  Had Ray add this shell to his back.  I think he looks much more distinct now.  A true MOTU warrior.   Wish I could have even made his claws bigger but I thought it might destroy or hinder the original one.

CUSTOM MOTU STINKOR

PEEEEYEWWWW!  What is that smell?  It is none other than Stinkor from MOTU.  He had no armor either.  
Ray did a great job.  I had him do a combination of the MOTUC line and original to make the armor look better.  What is that smell though?

That is right.  I found that when mattel originally made Stinkor they molded the plastic with pacholi oil.  So I had Ray track down some and rub it in Stinkor again.  He is twice the stinky!
WHEEU!  I gotta take a bath now!

CUSTOM MOTU TRICLOPS

Skeletor´s second in command gets his gear back courtesy of Ray.  His chest piece and sword.  He is ready to do battle with Heman...If I ever get him.

CUSTOM MOTU MECHANECK

Stick your neck out!  I got 11 Motu figures at the pulgas.  However they all had no armor.  All were naked.  So I had Ray fix that problem.
 Looks almost original!  Great stuff!
I had Ray make sure he didn´t block the mechanism that Mechaneck uses to extend.  LOVE having the MOTU collection back again.  Granted I am missing alot.  But the pulgas has paid off for me in the past.  Who knows what will be there in the future?

CUSTOM MOTU MERMAN

So it took Ray a month.  But he delivered.  Thought I would do these 1 by 1.  First up is Merman.  Remember I bought these at the flea market with NO armor or sword.  So yeah.  I am stoked to restore these great toys once again.  

Ray did an awesome job as usual.  Merman was in the first line of Motu figures.  I remember getting a few of them at the now closed Service Merchandise store.  So glad to have some of these back.  And restored is just gravy.

PULGAS RUN! Shin Tzu and Mad Bomber!

So Wifey and I went to the flea market last Sunday.  We are doing it once a month now which is great.  We went at 5pm and I didn´t expect to find anything.
 Dang it...He is out of focus!  This is the Ra´s substitute from Batman Begins.  Since I want the animated one as MY Ra´s...I think this guy will be Shin Tzu from some batman video game.  Leader of Chinese ninja clan or something.
Lex Luthor from Superman Returns.  But he doesn´t look like how I imagine lexy to look...So I have renamed him the Mad Bomber.  I am willing to have a better name for him if someone comes up with one though.

Like I said...it is slim pickens at 5pm...but at least I got them.  They were on my list afterall.

The next coming posts will be about the naked MOTU I found with Ray´s fixings to em!

TOYBIZ GAMBIT STAFFS!

Since I was looking around for Ray to do more stuff...I came across some Toybiz Gambit figures I had.  I had made the Famous Covers one so why not?
 The first Gambit staff I had made was the first Gambit figure from Toy Biz.  I do not think it is the first Gambit figure ever made.  I believe Applause holds that distinction.
He is ready to pounce into action!
 This guy was my go to Gambit.  I liked him much better than the first one.

He is ready for the danger room!
