Orko (Masters of the Universe Revelation)

Orko

I wanted to make an Orko figure that resembled the character from the beginning of MOTU Revelation. He looked similar to the classic 80’s character but with a little more detail. I printed it in resin and I like how it turned out for the most part, but I had to do it in multiple pieces so there are some spots I had to putty.

Slash Custom Action Figure

A friend commissioned me to make some figures from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. The second figure I finished was Slash, he is created with a silicone mold that was soaked in mineral spirits to increase its size and then resin cast. This process is rather difficult and I had to build the hands and spikes from scratch. What do you think?

Leatherhead Custom Action Figure

A friend commissioned me to make some figures from the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon. The first one I finished was Leatherhead, he is completely 3D printed, but things like his teeth come out underwhelming so they needed to be fixed. Oh yeah and he is bigger. Way bigger. What do you think? Did it turn out okay?

Custom He-Man & Skeletor

I found a good deal on a few Masters Of The Universe Origins figures so I decided to make some custom action figures. These ones are heavily inspired by the Mondo action figures that were released a few years back.

12” Custom Action Figures (work in progress)

  • This piece will need a lot of work.
  • The smaller finished He-Man figure in the middle is about 8” high.

I just thought I would share some of my progress on these 3D printed 12” Masters Of The Universe action figures. These came out with a lot of layer lines so I have used a lot of filler, sand paper, and resin, but in the end they are stating to look pretty good. Let me know what you think.

  • I messed up the eyes😁
    Definitely need a fine brush for these details.
Adding some of the final details.

Kenner/Hasbro Real Ghostbusters

The Real Ghostbusters

Last year Hasbro rereleased the original Kenner Real Ghostbusters action figures and not only did I preorder a set but I also went out and purchased a set because you can never have too many. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with the extras but last night I decided to open them and compare them to the originals I got when I was a kid.

  • Peter Venkman
  • Winston Zeddemore
  • Egon Spengler
  • Ray Stanz
The figures on the right are the 2020 rerelease, the ones to the left are from the original 80s toy line. Some of the figures I have painted the collars, straps, and belts.

Other than the obvious dirt and grime build-up they are almost identical to the originals. The only real difference I can see is the plug that connects the Proton Pack to their backs, it is now just a round peg that fits in snugly and I think it’s an improvement.

The opening of the figures was a fun experience with some warm and fuzzy flashbacks to when I was a kid and the carded figures look great on my wall.

Custom Real Ghostbusters action figures

  • The Real Ghostbusters from episode Citizen Ghost.
  • Winston Zeddemore
  • Peter Venkman
  • Ray Stantz
  • Egon Spengler
  • Proton Pack with Ghost Trap
  • Side view of Ghost Trap
  • Proton Pack and Neutrino Wand
  • Ghostbusters logo
Citizen Ghost is one of my favorite episodes of the cartoon series The Real Ghostbustes.
I have wanted to customize some figures to look like the movie Ghostbusters and finally found some rough looking figures for cheap. The Neutrino Wand was made from scratch using wooded dowels, craft foam, Milliput, and cardboard. I used rubber molds and plastic resin to make copies of the Proton Packs, Neutrino Wands, and Ghost Traps.

Custom Masters Of The Universe action figures

  • Teela done in the style of the original Mark Taylor concept art.
  • Mark Taylor concept art.
  • Front
  • Side
  • Back
  • Snake staff
  • This sword is originally from the Funko Primal Age Wonder Woman.
I wanted to make a Teela action figure that looked like the original concept art by Mark Taylor, the artist that helped create He-Man.
I used a combination of Milliput (2 part epoxy putty), hot glue, and feathers to make the armor and headdress. I also used Milliput to make the hair bigger in the front and add a larger ponytail in the back.
Next, I would like to make the original He-Man and Mer-Man.

Custom Action Figures (batch 2)

I managed to get my hands on a cheap King Randor action figure, it was in pretty bad shape, but the head was in good condition and I was able to make a mold of it. I already had a mold made of Battle Armor He-Man so in an ultimate act of laziness I made Battle Armor King Randor.
I wanted to make a Skeletor figure, but once I got the King Randor head mold made I thought with a little customization it would make a really cool Keldor. The hairstyle and beard give him more of a 70’s or 80’s vibe, which seems very fitting. I wanted to use the darker blue on his face to highlight his skull, but then toned it down when it looked way too cluttered. Keldor’s armor is made completely out of foam, toothpicks, and hot glue. I eventually made him a Havoc Staff too.
I honestly just wanted to see what it looked like to mix glitter into the plastic resin, I was not disappointed.
I give you Glitter Sparkle He-Man.
There was no way in hell I was going to drop $200 on a vintage Scare Glow, so I made my own. I even used glow in the dark paint. Lots and lots of glow in the dark paint. I modeled my version of Scare Glow on the Mondo Scare Glow figure.
