My Custom Major Mike Power

Hey guys, here is my latest custom. I recently picked up an extra Atomic man, after having him re flocked I still didn't like him, so I traded the head with Ralph for a Mike Power head, and sent both bodies to Ralph, who kindly re strung him and made me this amazing custom    (many thanks Ralph)






Thanks for looking   

It's indeed a very good custom! So evocative and adventure-filled!

I believe Ralph reversed the shoulder joint Jay, but you would have to ask him mate

Very nice Dal! He looks like an Amazon rain forest warden/security  

I was wondering about that cap, Is it a MAM cap? I had a similar looking cap that was for MAM, Ackie now has it, they're really hard to find

hey thanks Clive   , i am pleased that you like him mate. The Cap is a Power Team item, I had mine off Nate   , and it fits Mike's head really well   

Now this chap I like Dal, he looks well cool, with both arms and legs atomic, a brilliant custom my friend

     , thanks nate

The 'Quad Bionic' enhancements certainly give him a unique look Dal! As I said on FB, to me it's a look very reminiscent of the Dandy comic's robotic school boy 'Brass neck'!



  

What with this Mike Power and my own Cliff Sabre to his credit Ralph is definitely becoming the rebuild king around here!

..but the kit you've put Mike in really 'makes the look I think! Top Job Dal!

hey thanks Steve !, yeah Ralph is really good at this re stringing lark !. Great comic reference, haven't seen him in a long time   .

Thanks also on his uniform, mainly max steel kit, joe and dragon completes his look     

looks great

He came up really well Dal, I was nervous about doing it, at as I know that the figure is one of your favourites!

Conversely, my Mike Powers custom body is not going to have any bionic limbs at all, but I am going to keep as many original Mike body parts as possible. For now, the body is going to get a very nice restored Air Adventurer head...  

I have another custom project planned for the blonde bearded Mike Powers head that I swapped...  

Many thanks Ralph !, you did a superb job on him and I couldn't be happier with him !!     

I look forward to seeing your future projects too
