    New For 1976 WGSD Kojak!

    Hot off the Workbench it's Kojak of the World's Greatest Super Detectives series 1!



    I hope you like it!

    The head is from eBay with paints by me on a Zica type-S body.
    The suit is from FTC's KISS line.
    The shoulder holster is from an AJ spy outfit
    The lollipops & Cigar were made by me
    The sunglasses are from Dr.Mego
    All other accessories are from CTVT
    Last but not least is the incredible box from The-Toyroom.com

    This was a fun figure to make. I had a original from Excel but sold it off in the early 2000's. Of all my figures that I purged, this was one the one I missed the most. I was thrilled to be able to make my own and Kojak was the first head I bought back in February when I decided that I wanted to start customizing.




    That's quite a grip he has on that lollipop...



    Telly shouldn't play with guns after a visit to the eye doctor...


    Some accessories sold separately...


    The top vest button popped off during the photoshoot/gun battle. Hey FTC, you might want to sew the buttons on before putting on the velcro! Would you believe I'm out of black thread at the moment


    The box is the cherry on top of the cake!


    I loved this show as a kid and even had the board game. I'm so happy that it's running again on MeTV.

    I have a few more WGSD's planned for the future but for now it's back to WGSH's

        I think the Excel Kojak is a great figure, but good gravy... you really kicked it up a notch. Great paint job, great box, and love all the extras.
