Look in the back on the right hand side of the picture, a massive custom Roboskull! Looks like the wings are a bit saggy though. Would love to see some close ups of that bad boy.

Errre that might have been a little fib to wind someone up a little. In a friendly way of course...

little unfair to call it saggy when it is scratch built for 12" scale figures :shock:

It was amazing, built by Kate Kirkwood and was one of two Action Force customs entered 4" Black Major being the other by Simon Flack). Kate's Roboskull and Red Wolf placed third in the category it was entered in.
I took some pictures of it, of which will be posted in The Full Force show notes in a coming episode where she is interviewed regarding it's build :)

That's awesome! Looks as good as the original.
The wings look fine in your photos, must just have been the angle in the other photo.
