I'm not giving out any other information on it yet..... except that he'll be limited, and he's ONLY available if you attend the meet.

I'm looking forward to the figure. Hell, I'm looking forward to the filecard.

Very very nice. Fantastic artwork, even by Loop's standards. The only pieces I know for sure are the Mirage legs.

Mirages Legs are a part of this - mind you, you won't know they were from him when it's done. ;-) Plus, keep in mind that the first JoeCanuck figure had a hand sculpted head...... does this have anything 'hand made'?
Maybe. :-)

In any case, will this guy come with personalized filecards? This way I can be JoeCanuck, or CoCanuck.

The filecard is NOT going to be personalized like JoeCanuck was.
There's just no way I'm doing that again.
You'll like it.... I actually think everyone will like 'who' this guy is, and 'what' he is.

Head : Sludge Viper or maybe a custom cast?
Arms, waist and legs : Mirage
Torso : Incinerators
I'm guessing Incinerators because I just repainted one myself. Then again I could be wrong.

I'll share this much..... you guys don't know WHAT colors are going to be involved with this guy, but I will tell you this - some parts are being casted.
You also don't know if his 'helmet' comes off or not.
So there....... All you 'really' know is that he's a Cobra..... or is he?

No... I wouldn't do that to army builders like PeteTheGreek. :-)

Head: Sludge Viper (hollowed or not)
Torso: Vapor (100% sure. He's the only one whose Cobra logo wasn't surrounded by a circle)
Arms, waist, legs: Mirage
Interesting choice of parts, I'm curious what this is going to turn out to be.

Well, after checking Yojoe, I can positively say this:
Head: Sludge Viper (hollowed or not)
Torso: Vapor (100% sure. He's the only one whose Cobra logo wasn't surrounded by a circle)
Arms, waist, legs: Mirage

Incinerators don't have a circle around the logo.

Um, yes he does. I have him right here and he has a circle.
Post by: BHMike on February 14, 2006, 02:03:33 PM
Seriously. I'm looking at one right now, and while there IS an outline around it, there is NO circle around him like the others.

So it *is* Vapour. Damn, I'm good! (and so is the drawing)
Looks like Vapour but that is an expensive figure to use. So it won't be him.

Mike said he was using casted parts, and in another thread, he mentionned he was in need of someone to make torso casts for the exclusive.
My guess as to how these figures will be made:
Head and torso: casted replicas
Arms, waist and legs: leftover Mirages from Raptor's "anti-army-builder" project.
This is just my guess, so I could be wrong, mainly about whether or not the Mirages come from Raptor or not, but it does seem like the most logical source since he has, like, 50.

I wasn't sure about the name, but after I did the bio, I'm convinced.
File Name: BLACK ICE
(Not the beer - the weather condition)
Finished pic should be coming soon, AND a sample pic of the figure.

I will have 30 of him available.... should be enough for all, but just in case I may do an 'online pre-booking' kinda thing.
Not sure yet, I have time to think about it however.
They're on the way to me now, so once they get here, I'll paint one up and send Loop the pic - then he can fill in the B/W sketch on page 1 and email it to me.
Then I'll post that for you all..... who knows.... maybe I WILL hold off from showing them to you before hand. ;-)
Now we gotta get more folks to actually SAY their coming.
I'm explecting some 'non-posting' folks that read this site to just 'show up' and get one.... so.... yeah.... gotta figure out stuff first.
