As many of you know here, one of my main hobbies is customizing action figures. Unfortunately, creating web pages is not one of my hobbies. So... every Spring and Fall the Customizing Community comes together and puts on mock conventions and this is how I display my work. I have a few threads around here somewhere that point to them, but now that I have enough work on the web, I decided to dedicate a thread so you can find my customs in one convenient place. smile

Starting back in October of 2003 I debuted many of my Legion figures in Custom Con 9.
-Links to follow (for those of you that weren't here at the time)
Legion Muscle Squad
Legion Espionage Squad
Legion Casters/Elemental Squad
Legion Others
Legion Villains

Next came October 2004 where I pretty much completed my reboot take on the Legion and some peripheral Legion teams.

More Legion
More Legion Villains
The Amazers
The Work Force
The Subs
Not the Legion

For October 2005 I decided to do something a little different... I call it: Adventures in the 5 Inch DC Universe. It seems that the Customizing Craze has moved into the 6" super articulated scale or into the Mini-mates/Pocket Super Heroes. I decided to stay out of both of those arenas for now and to stay in a medium that has already been thouroughly explored... only I'm trying to do things a little differently.

First up... Batman Rogues

As usual... there is a link at the top of each page that will take you to a "recipe" write up for each figure.

And if you get the chance to check out some of the other Customizers' works... you shouldn't be too disappointed.

Just got a question: What is Skeletor (figure in the middle of either side of Deathstroke the Terminator and Chronos) doing in that crowd scene?

That's not Skeletor... it's Dr. Destiny from his recent appearance on the JLU Animated Series. I'm trying to find a reference pic for you, but am having no luck.

Thats ok, Minesurfer, its just Dr. Destiny looks a little different from when he made his first (skeletal) appearance in JLA (Vol.1)154.

Found one for you but the web page won't let me "hot link" to it or post the picutre here. Sorry about the cut and paste but I can't get around it.

Wow! These are amazing!

I zipped through the web site and really like the JLU classic Aquaman and that Elsewhere Wonder Woman.
