Cobra REAPER, custom contest entry #2!


Jin Saotome

Recommended Posts

Here's the fellow who didn't make it in the top 25, my Cobra Reaper. Back of the bus and all but still pretty deadly.

Parts used:

 

Head: Ben 10 'Ben Mummy'

Main body, arms, legs: 25th Anniv Storm Shadow (80%)

Hands, feet, cape: Superhero Showdown Dr. Doom

Cape blade tips: edges from Skeletor power sword

Belt: fabric strap

Chains: jewelry chain

Scythe bade: modified Spawn Sword blade

Scythe handle/hilt: two Medieval Witchblade axe handles

Blood-Fang spear: two Christmas ice sickle decorations

Base: Cobra Commander base with new wording

 

He was probably too wild/mystical of a character for the regular Joe series, heh. Full spread of pics can be found here: http://www.angelfire.com/mech/jinsaotome/J...obraReaper.html

 

Enjoy!

Great custom Jin, but I got to agree it just doesn't seem G.I. Joe to me.

Sorry Jin but this one I don't like as a G. I. Joe related character. It's a great custom but looks more fitting for Star Wars to me.

 

I agree....but a great effort nevertheless and 100% original.

omg, please tell me English isn't your first language...

 

It's definitely a sharp figure. I don't know about Star Wars but it's definitely pretty fantasy-ish. Too much for GI Joe, in my opinion, but it looks nice!

Couldn't agree more.

 

Guys, I like it as a Joe villian. I think he fits in with Crystal ball and the 90's joes. Jin that is another amazing piece of work. You really need to hit up Hasbro for a position as a figure designer or at least in the concept department. I think you live in the bay area, if you ever come buy Monterey. Please come by one of my shops or give me heads up. I would love to meet you in person and show you some customs I have done.
