New Custom Tuesday is a weekly, creator-submitted list of the latest custom action figures. This list provides a convenient way to check out all the latest custom creations posted in the galleries without having to search each individual thread. For this week’s customs, read on!
First up this week is an astounding Blade custom by Lestat. This uses an exceptionally well-articulated base body and a Sideshow head sculpt hydro-shrunk down to 7-inch scale. It’s extremely effective and the NECA base body has this interesting texture that makes the usual dull black bodysuit a little more interesting. I’m fascinated by the hydro-shrink process, and I’d say the result here looks like it is worth the effort.
Next up is a great new Hordesman by mkULTRA: Buzzkill! It’s a clever reuse of the Hurricane Hordak base body and the Iron Monger head. mkULTRA has great facility for designing new characters from the existing MOTUC base bodies, and Buzzkill is a great example of this. I swear his thread is like a customizing to-do list for me.
St. Prime shared a really cool version of the Spirit of Grayskull using the glow-in-the-dark Scareglow as an unconventional and effectively ghostly base. I love the metallic green paint job on the Jitsu armor, and it makes me wish there were more characters using this armor. It’s just too cool.
I couldn’t quite pull the trigger on the latest Red Skull in the infinite line, but Rider’s modifications make me see the potential that I didn’t before. I like how it has a classic vibe with a slightly modern updated feel.
Thanks for reading, and please remember to pop on over to our custom galleries and comment on the fine work on display.
