code red shockwave

How many submitted their entries on time for the contest, Alyosha?

I know I haven't posted in quite a while, but have been busy with physical therapy to strengthen my knee and summer school. This is one of the only female customs i'm adding to my L.A.M.E. Brawler Squad. Yes, I actually used Buzzer's head, but don't blame me if you get nightmares. For those of you who watched Mrs. Doubtfire, you'll remember that song that goes, "Dude looks like a lady...yeah...yeah...", LMAO. @loll@ Well, hey, using Buzzer's head has to be loads better than that ugly Zarana v1 head, am I right? Besides, I use the comic pack version of Buzzer as my default version anyway.

Well done Xhairs, sorry I haven't posted that much lately. Been busy with summer school.

Well done. Did you try using a primer to seal the paint?

I submitted my entry to you via PM, Alyosha.

"There really isn't a new sculpt army builder that is really better than the RAH army builders. " Well CT, i'm afraid I will have to disagree with that. The Tele-Vipers are much better than the originals. After all, their noggins are big and make them look like eskimos.

Wow all these figures look pretty cool. I can't believe the Gasmask trooper, valor vs. venom COBRA Commander, and valor vs. venom Storm Shadow are all being redone. I hope that more characters(like Shockwave, Mutt, Lightfoot, etc.) will all get figures next year.

Come on now, Hardy deserves the title a million times more than Khali. This is exactly why WWE is worse now. Shame...

About time! Kaz is one of my favorite underrated wrestlers and deserves a good push!

Nooooo! I was supposed to have a better custom. D'oh! Just kidding man, yours makes mine look amateurish.

I'll turn in my submission when I take pictures of my LBC. Then i'll send in the pictures to you via PM at joebattlelines, Aly. Thanks for the contest.

I am agreeing with everyone else that the parts used were good choices. I think it's the first time i've seen a Metal-Head custom without any headwear.

Mugen is a 2-D fighting game like Mortal Kombat, except you can do all sorts of cool things like add in your own stages, make your own characters, create alternate costumes that don't already exist, and use your own mp3 files for music. You can fight anybody from Super Mario to Ryu from SFA to Sub-Zero from MK to Goku from DBZ. The possibilities are limitless, as long as you can find the right place to download each character. If you want to know more about Mugen, go on youtube and under search, type "Mugen". I was even able to find some GIJOE characters(COBRA Commander and Snake Eyes) and create my own GIJOE characters(Storm Shadow(using Hanzo from Samurai Showdown), Shockwave(Half-Life Grunt), Big Boa(Bane), etc.). If you haven't tried it out yet, download it now. Just make sure your hard drive has enough room for it.

I'm absolutely for having Orton win the title. As long as he doesn't mess up this time, he'll finally get his wish.

Big Show as a boxer? More like a big target! @loll@ Seriously, he should go to TNA instead. TNA could use an extra big guy.

Snake Eyes and Scarlett capture a pair of criminals. They point their weapons at them while Scarlett questions them, showing they mean serious business. Please note that these two "criminals" are not Alpine and Faces(Faces is dead in my universe, plus I use the TF version as the real Alpine).

Fourth custom I have is another LBC---Wild Bill. I felt v1 was so-so(but wanted the ball jointed head), the other Battle Corps versions looked too much like Calvary scouts, and the new sculpt versions just didn't quite cut it for me, so this is my solution. This will become my default Wild Bill. My fifth custom is Stalker. This custom is designed to be a homage of the valor vs. venom version. Not too bad of a figure, especially since I know some collectors liked the comic pack version that came with Classified and Tommy Arashikage. Next up is Lock Down, one of my S.W.A.T. characters. The one I previously had was good, but I felt he needed a torso with body armor. The Sonic Fighters Dial-Tone torso inspired me to change him into this new look. I also think this would have been a better look for Bullet-Proof. Last, but not least, is my latest Shockwave custom. You're probably wondering, why so many Shockwave customs? Didn't you finish that army building craze a long time ago? Well, I think if this particular custom was released by Hasbro, I think a lot more collectors would buy him like crazy. I know many out there associate the baseball cap with ski mask as a "trademark" of Shockwave's, thus I used the v1 head. The v1 torso was a better idea to me than v3's because it looks like it could stop bullets no matter where on the torso he got hit while the other one had weak spots at the upper torso. The rest were all v3 because I felt the arms made him just a tad skinny and he needed knee pads for extra protection. Hope you all love them...let me know what you think, as always. Thanks, and peace out.

Wow, after four weeks of waiting for my knee to heal, I am back and I got customs to show you! First up is my Battle Corps Law. I felt the one Hasbro released was good, but the yellow plus the chest mold struck me as one that I don't think would be used in an urban assault situation. So, to fix this I just did a simple LBC swap using the BC Law head on the Star Brigade Duke body. Second, I have Beach-Head. Now there are those who love the original to death despite the large noggin, while others out there say there hasn't been a good version of him released yet. Well once you see this custom, I think you would love to make one for yourself. I used a pair of scissors to cut off the neck joint(otherwise his head would have looked too tall, unnatural, and it wouldn't have fit) and I repainted the entire head using the forest green paint color from Apple Barrel. This will become my default Beach-Head. Third one is simply a generic mob gangster, using the same green paint I used for Beach-Head's head. I got the idea from playing the arcade game(also on my arcade emulator) the Punisher. There were thugs in suits with top hats on and I couldn't resist creating one of my own. I used an original Muskrat head and repainted a v2 body(including the hands to create gloves...plus the flesh tone would have not matched the pale one had I not done this).

She is wearing the same color scheme as the Brazil Mission team's Mainframe. Weird...guess Mainframe wanted to come out of the closet after he found Zarana to be too ugly.

I couldn't believe until my dad told me about it when I was watching the second hour of Raw. R.I.P. Benoit.

Thanks for the Imperial Ceremony Guard prototype Joe! I can use him as a mutant in my universe!

Xhairs, You once again blow me away with your greatness! As soon as I recover, which will be in one week, I will definitely post some customs of my own to show!

This PPV was pretty good actually. I think the only three flaws were that Shelley lost to Backlund(but I guess that's just to set up a Backlund vs. Nash feud), Killings was Storm's tag team partner(what the heck?), and Team 3-D still retaining the titles(even though they should have lost).

This is exactly why TNA is doing better than WWE for me right now. For crying out loud, the WGTT needs to be pushed. They got a win over the Highlanders on Heat but they deserve better. Umaga is boring...I'd rather see Big Show than this chump. I'm glad Orton's winning again...can't believe he jobbed to RVD at the PPV. Not a bad show, but needs a lot more improvement.

Wow they look better except for Roadblock. His arms are too thin, which was my biggest peeve about the original. Scarlett looks to be the best out of the bunch though.
