Thanks, guys! This is a project I started on years ago, slowly picking up fodder here and there. 2DARK2C gave me a box of fodder parts that contained an Indiana Jones Sankara stone in it. That because the basis for the head, so extra thanks to you! |

Awesome! I’ve had one parted out for over a decade. Glad to see someone actually make this guy |

Thanks, Matthew. Almost the same story on mine time wise. The parts took forever, maybe four or five years. I started with the Thanos body, but the legs were too short. Then I saw the Juggernaut legs... and finally the Thing hands. I never would have thought Toy Biz 90's parts would come in handy, but how about that? Mine also sat, stuck in idle mode, until I stumbled onto that piece 2DARK2C had tossed in a fodder box. I wasn't even looking for it. Just saw it and it clicked. What recipe were you going for? The hands are the most off-design because the fingers/thumbs are ridged, but it looked more reasonable than how it was drawn so I used them without any regret. |

I have had 2 Marvel Legends Tony Stark silver first armor figures set aside to attempt this one, one as the built one and the other as the dissected version. Nice work. |

This is really excellent. The WIP pic really showcases how much work went into the figure. |

Thanks, much appreciated! Go for it, Dark Jedi. What about making it with strong magnets at the joint so it be taken apart? Just a thought. |

I hadn't thought of magnets, but one would be the 'hero' version and the other the parts version. Hadn't progressed beyond getting parts and idea. |

Very cool idea! I love customs based on material from the comics and cartoon. So many inspiration out there waiting to be turned into plastic figure life... |
