Blood for the Baron!

As per the same brief which led to our straight-limbed Gaucho figure... viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3231 ... my buddy Mark and I decided to make a Z-Force Jammer using ONLY Wave 1 parts, to show what the figure may have looked like if produced soley by Palitoy and not by Hasbro. We used a British 2Para as the basis for Jammer . The overall shape worked well, but his uniform didn't really lend itself to a big logo emblazoned across the chest... hence the tiny on our Jammer's chest..., ha ha!

Here's what the bendy-limbed Hasbro version looked like;


And our version... will appear as soon as Mark gets the images online !

And here's ours! Wave 1 stylee A bit of a scruffy rush-job, and you'll notice the diddy sized , but I'm happy with the finished product none the less

Another job well done ! The Jammer head is fantastic.

that torso is ideal with the black braces, shame there isnt much room for the Z logo.

I must admit I was amazed at how well Mark was able to 'build' a moustache from scratch for Jammer!

He's a clever chap

very cool to see this, while I love the poseable one, its cool to see what it might have looked liked had palitoy continued

Looks great, the face is particularly well done! Bravo!

I agree, I think it gives him a seasoned look, opposed to the fresh faced look of the original. A job well done.

Loving this, its the exact opposite of what I like doing but great custom...

ya know what? that's better than the Hasbro figure. it's a LOT cooler than the official one.

it fits in with the rest of the Action Force line's tradition, the detail in the Palitoy sculpt is much more impressive, and that's how the character looks in my 'verse anyway (like soldier who has stories to tell and ribbons aplenty on his dress uniform back home).

Thanks, mate. I think Mark did a particularly good job of the face and the colour-scheme... especially when you consider that he started out as a brown uniformed, clean shaven, white guy, 2-Para !
