Nah just the 25th style, got back into into joes with the 25th release , my goal is too have every produced and some non produced (Vance Wingfield, Phoenix Guard etc) in my collection. As for vintage figures, if you look close at some of my customs, you can see I dremelled AKA Destroyed a few vintage fig in the process.

I see that now, Overlord rocks, what did you do for his hands?
As for suggestions, would love to see Firefly

I've been on the lookout for Rex, no luck as yet.
having trouble thinking of a colour scheme that hasn't been used by any of the various moulds over the years.
maybe something along the lines of what if he had come over to the Joe team, similar to what Stormie did.

Nice idea, what would he look like as a Joe? or how about a Shadow? I might have an extra pair of those REX hands, I'll look for ya.

Hi Mike and welcome.
Like the customs. I know what you mean about the Mutt figure. Although then again his face looks a lot like Dennis Farina playing Mike Torello in Crime Story. With a trench coat and a trilby (and maybe a leg swap if they show under the coat) another cool Mutt custom might be possible.

wow, your right the likeness is uncanny. SDCC Destro body, trench coat, indy fedora and Mutt head
