Gsptlsnz (Reclined)

Gsptlsnz was a labor of love. Repositioning a figure’s limbs like this is usually the work of Climax1. I guess I was following his style on this one. Gspy is mostly a Hawkgirl figure, with her limbs removed and repositioned. She’s also been repositioned at the waist. Her lower right (read more...)

Mala

A Mala custom is a deceptively tough nut to crack, and that’s probably why it’s taken me so many years to get around to making her and Jax-Ur. She’s certainly a beefier shape than the usual wispy female character designs of the Timmverse. That meant having to Frankenstein some parts (read more...)

Jax-Ur

General Jax-Ur was built on a Mattel TNBA batman body. I felt this choice provided the best proportions. The shoulders were Dremeled down for a more rounded look, and the belt blasted off. The torso order was shaped out of Super Sculpey (in the interest of time), and the remaining (read more...)

Annihilator

Climax1: Going where no other customizer will dare to go. Just look at this beast! I doubt I ever would’ve tackled such a project on my own. But C1 didn’t blink. He dived in head first. I don’t know what or if there was a base figure, but that’s a (read more...)

Poison Ivy’s Kitchen

Maybe I’ve watched the episode “Harley and Ivy” too many times, but one day I was struck with how easy it would be to convert a Simpson’s kitchen playset to Ivy’s suburban kitchen in Toxic Acres. The effort consisted primarily of paint, with new graphics for the window and refrigerator. (read more...)

Poison Ivy with Flower

Many moons ago, I crafted a Poison Ivy that I hoped would be end-all, be-all of Poison Ivy head sculpts. Sadly, I fell short of that goal, but she still pretty worked well. The primary shortcoming, once all was said and done, was her tiny face. I should have used (read more...)

Harley Quinn with Hammer

Climax1 is cranking out some great work lately! He bends limbs like they’re wet noodles, creating all new characters and variations. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next! When Climax1 revealed his Harley with a hammer, there was no question. I had to have her on (read more...)

Blockbuster

Blockbuster is one of those characters I figured I’d get around to making someday, but he never seemed to make it to the top of the list. He requires a good deal of character-specific work. So I constantly put him off. But when someone else does the heavy lifting for (read more...)

AMAZO

In 2008 I created a properly-scaled AMAZO from a bootleg Flash figure. It was adequate enough, but I recognize it was too thin and a little off in the sculpt. Jump ahead five years, and Stew developed a kit. I assembled new gold and grey versions using magnets for the (read more...)

Harley Quinn 1966

After waiting all my life, I finally have some halfway decent 1966 Batman toys on the shelf. But as I set them up for the first time, something seemed to be missing. Harley, of course! But our dear kookey gal didn’t exist back then. So I asked myself what she (read more...)
