spuda's misc. (half tracks pick up, knox)
« on: May 20, 2010, 08:09:00 AM »
I know I've put most of my non-star wars stuff in my normal thread but here lately I've been doing more and more non-star wars stuff so I thought I'd start my own thread in this section....

In a mash-up of the joe-verse and marvel's Iron Man...

Hammer's company fails to secure a military contract after Vanko destroyed his drone's at the stark expo... however the para-military organization known as COBRA was watching.  Cobra already had their own drones, known as BAT's, and had been waiting for the right opourtunity to aquire stark's Iron Man technology to incorporate it into their own mechanized army...

thus a new version of Battle Android Troopers were created... The Hammer BAT. 

This new version of the BAT combined the best elements of the hammer drones with the best features of the original BAT's.  The ARC Reactor energy source and advanced Hammer (stolen stark) robotics created the heart and brawn of the machine....  The modular weponry and the artificial inteligence was inspired by the original BAT design.  All the classics of the BAT armory is included, as well as a few new items. 
Most notably the standard hand is replaced by a flight stabilizing palm repulsor unit.
The stark Repulsor design incorporated into this version of the BAT makes it flight capable as well.

pics:
comparing it to the 25th BAT figure:




The optional 2nd head (which I do not like as much):


the mandatory BAT back-pack:


the chest plate is removable, a small pin was used to hold it in place and is the reason there is a small hole in the arc reactor...



Arm attachments are made possible by using the 25th BAT's elbow joint and modifying the forarms of the WM figure to fit onto them:




a new attachment:

the main head that I have on there is the BAT from the 25th aniversary line, but the other head is also a version of the bat from one of the older lines of joes.  I believe it's called the "version 3" BAT... that, coincidentally is also the same figure that the chestplate came from.

here is yet another IM custom... been doing alot of these lately...

I fixed the glowing light up iron man mark 6.  The bleedthrough of the LED in the torso was more than I could handle.  Other than that this is an amazing figure with amazing articulation dispite the electronics.  I'm realy impressed with this one.... and for me to be impressed by a stock figure is hard to do.

but alas... there is always room for improvement.   
I took the figure completely apart by cracking the torso.  I then painted the insides of the figure to prevent any more bleed through of the light.

here is the result:



and if your interested here are my stock iron man figures that I've collected so far:

Dr. Doom obtains stark tech. and builds his own mechanized army of Iron-DoomBots.... Or "doomstarks" or "dark iron men" whatever you want to call them...

Doom is a marvel universe doom with a working holster (roc scarlett) and a custom swoord (handle from res. CC's and blade from Indie. Mutt) and scabbard (from res. CC).

Doomstark is a re-LED and Repaint of the mark6 power glow armor.  A green LED has replaced the original as well as a full repaint in Doom's green and silver (pluss some red paint where in the joints.... ??? )
