I just wanna know if the helmet fits well on that Astro-Viper head??

Yes it does.

It'll work with a TRAHC Sidetrack or Duke helmet, but not with a ARAH Duke helmet (harder plastic).

You have to wrestle a little bit with the head of Astro-Viper to rest it into the right position.

These are all great! My favorites are De Aço, Sundancer and Big Lob (this is the figure that the club should have made).

Great work!

Thanks OB. Cobra the Aço is one of my personal favorites as well. As for Big Lob, I've been receiving a lot of good comments about him and all I can say is thanks guys. I own the club's version too, and, beeing a fan of a few movies that the late Burgess Meredith appeared in, I can tell you that I was really disappointed with their offering, but very very glad I had mine as a consolation prize. There's no better way to describe the satisfaction and pride I feel about my Big Lob custom. But to tell you the truth, I tried to aim higher at first, and thought I had failed when I finished it. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder in the end, sometimes even the customizer is too demanding of his own work he can't start appreciating what he has accomplished.

What you guys don't know is that I recently worked out a trade with Grunt4mvp and he'll be the new owner of my Big Lob custom. He originally asked me If I could make him one, but I gladly offered him my original and only one since this would also make him happy. Since my two hands and my lucidity haven't given up on me yet, I'll make myself a new one, or learn in time to appreciate the Club's version.

Nothing really worth mentionning...It was a cash value trade in reality, but that's the way the man preferred to go and I got what I needed anyway and he got what he wanted so I'm expecting it was a fair trade. He's getting a piece that I am still very proud of so I am hoping it is going to a good home. But It's no custom I cannot redo again, and I will, and the picture will be updated to reflect the v.2 custom down the road.

Yes, I am known to talk a lot lately about upcoming projects and not getting much done. I guess it would be proper to announce something when there is something to show... and that won't happen until after the Montreal Toy Con. But will do, 5h4rk, that's a garrantee  :wink:

Newest custom: ARAH style Action Force's Moondancer v.1

Needs some last touch-ups and painting the neck and hood area, and the neat Action Force space force faction sticker, but I couldn't wait to show it now that it's almost complete.

I'll update the picture when he'll be all done. As always, let me know what you think.
