The Baron & Black Major

Post by buddusky »

As these were lost, I thought I'd repost my Convention Black Major and Baron updates. I've also included some pictures of a Baron custom made from a white Chinese Prototype Cobra Commander complete with filecard which I picked-up off eBay not long ago.

The head swap Red Shadow is Red Vulture but I'm still not sure if it's the right head. I plan to upgrade the Red Chrome Escape Armour with Shad. Decals to make it the Baron's personal Escape Armour.

Nice pics! Loving the Baron, I use Downtown v1 for my Red Vulture, looks a nice match to the comic and also suitably evil looking.

They do look great, which version of the Escape Armor is that? The metallic red really suits it nicely.

All these look great, particularly the Baron in the first picture.

Eddie, the Escape Armour is a custom by the guys that made the Canadian Convention Chrome Exclusives.

Loving the chrome escape armour.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I was'nt a fan of the Convention :major: but you've improved him massively with just a little work. Love the armour, :baron: and :vulture: as well.

Cheers Gents, the Escape Armour was the last one and has a bit of wear. However, I think it gives it a battle damaged look that's growing on me. I'll do an update when I swap the decals.
