I had these guys on my work table when the announcement came that they were going to be the con exclusives, so I decided to finish them up and post them.

Here they are!

Are they on a mission to find Dial-Tone?  ;D
Or were you not making a custom of him?

Thanks fellas!

Good question, I had intended on adding Dialtone but decided to go ahead and post them since the con exclusives were supposed to get revealed starting today.  Speaking of which, you guys see the two figures revealed today?  I posted links in the convention thread and a comparison pic of the leathernecks.

I've been addressing the joint rub on my customs, I've been cutting and dremmeling the joing swivels down to reduce the rubbing.  On these guys, I put the rush on when I saw the convention sets were about to be revealed so I skipped that step.  I might address it later though.  I figured when the con figures were revealed, I would have no reason to do this project, but based on the green mainframe that was released today, I may go ahead with this one and add Dialtone at some point.
