Red bandana Figs

Just wondering if anyone else had this idea...When I first got my tmnt movie figs I decided to put Leos belt around Raph to get a good idea of what original comic book Leo would look like with the new movie's design. I thought it looked pretty cool and am now considering buying 3 more Raphs to put the other turtles accessories on, so I can have my own little custom mirage tmnt figs, Has anyone else done this with a tmnt line, or thinking about it? If so, could I see some pics of what this would look like?

Guy over at the Spawn board posted his custome figures last week. I bought an extra set of the figures so I could try to do something like this.

There are actually some customs on eBay right now. I know I can't afford them, but I still keep looking at them, trying to convince myself that it's only money...

Those do look really nice, but It'd be cool if they had someplace to store their weapnons...if they do, I just dont see it. Anyone on the boards done something like this?

These things are amazing!!! I only wish that playmates would look at them, think "Bloody hell! There's a market for these!" and start to make Mirage style, red bandana'd turtles. I mean, with no reservation, and only 7 bids, its already past $100...

Wow that's a business right there. it's up to 107 bucks. That person should make a bunch of figs. Those red bandana figs seem to be in high demand.

Really nice job plus you can pose them in different ways

looks like a mixture of real life objects such as small chains, small metal rods thats why raphs sais look so odd and the rest look to be either taken from the acutal toys and modified or made of sculpty.

They're really nice but too bright, they should have their individual shades of green. Raph's face was sculpted further. The belts looks nice. Mike's chains are too long though.
And yeah fingernails!! Woo! I thought those were FUNNY!!! Cos ya kow...Peter and no nails.. heheh...
they should have added tails, then they'd be perfect.
