When the Evil Custom Shredder Attacks!!!...

[TurtleManiac]

I was gonna hold off til the new year to complete this, but I just couldn't help myself! This is my second custom Shredder, and I feel it is far superior to the first one. It's not as perfect as I wanted it to be, some little things about it still don't look right to me, like the arm postioning, smoothness etc., but i could always fix that kinda stuff later. Btw the body and head is entirely 100% vintage original 1988 Shredder from Playmates, as well as the upper body armor, obviously all with some serious re-construction, and the leg armor is from super shredder with the appropriate remodification. This is the '88 Shredder figure's actual height if it were not crouching so low. There is too many steps in making it to list all of them, but I will gladly answer any specific questions anyone has. Figure has removable cape, shirt, and belt. I might also make an alternate interchangeable purple shirt for him to match his Turtles in Time arcade appearance. Also, the shirt he has now might be too dark, might make another one using a lighter shade of gray.

I'm gonna have to make a new krang android, because the '94 android is way too small, not scale at all! I always hated that mini krang. not sure if i wanna use the custom Krang sculpt, or simply the '89 Krang figure. the giant Krang android actually didn't have to be that big if you look closely how much space he has inside the cage.

(I hate just having to link every pic, but I have no clue how to post pics directly onto a thread)

Look out for un-crouched, straight-standing tall Foot Soldier, coming soon!
