    The American Crusader

    I have been working on this one for a while...
    • Phantom head from Austin Hough that I modified.
    • CTVT black cape that I modified as well to fit better.
    • Stickers by Paul Wasson.
    • Cast-A-Way red suit, belt, and boots.
    • Doc Swivel-Bicep Body and shorts
    • Gorgeous box by Anthony / The Toyroom

    The boots, shorts, gauntlets and hands were painted with Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric Coating.





    What do you think?

                  There a tons of Public Domain Superheroes on the internet. Many are comic book heroes created during WWII.

A colleague created a device called an atom smasher, but the initial test went awry when Masters, preoccupied in his thoughts went into the room where the device was being used.

                      That's excellent. Older designs fit Megoesque very well.
