This is a custom for the greatest guitar player I have ever heard.
He's got a great schtick, being a country western troubadour and a gun-toting vampire to boot!

He's also one of the greatest fellas I have EVER had the pleasure of meeting too! My mother loves him too! He always asks about her and always spends hours talking with her about Ricky Nelson and Buddy Holly, he even singed a birthday card for her too. See? I told ya he was awesome!

He also does the voice for "Early" on the show "Squidbillies" on Cartoon Network as well!

Here's his myspace page and see for yourself! He's got some great songs too! (If you like that kinda stuff!)
MySpace.com - Unknown Hinson - Rockabilly / Psychobilly / Rock - www.myspace.com/unknownhinson
(http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=20063590)

So Mego people.........here's the recipe,

Head and shoes from a CTVT Drac got from David Lee at Megomeet,
Black suit from Doc Mego at Megomeet,
White shirt from Joe D. at Megomeet,'
Pistol made possible by Richard DiPompo (thanks again so very much mate!)
"CHiP's" Jon body also got at Megomeet, (can't remember where if I got it from you fess up so that I can thank you once again!)

He also has "Glow in the Dark Eyes and Fangs action" too!

I got this ready in a week to give to Unknown Hinson this Sunday. I'll post pics of him with it if I get the chance to get a pic!

Here's a pic with him and I after opening for him for our first show,

Yeah I looking at my Drac, and began to laugh and said "That's perfect!", then out of the blue, Roadblock (the fella pictured with the Mego in hand) asked me if I could ready one by June 22nd. I said not prob! Megomeet gave me the oppertunity to get the stuff I needed for him CHEAP and quick! I got both, it's been a couple of weeks since Megomeet and I had tons to do, so in a night I got the clothes done, in a day I painted the head, and presto! Plus, I don't like putting much into Mego peices cause they really didn't. I try to make with what I have for the most part. Just like oldschool Mego! Look at what they did with what that system! Whereas some of the others need more.
This was rather easy for the most part.

Thanks man, I really appreciate it!

Whoa man, thanks! From you that means alot!

Oh, I wanted to tell you this, the fella that's pictured atop in the pics Roadblock is the "proud" owner of Doc Stearn, he's always going off about how his one figure can beat anyone else's, I crack up! He LOVES that figure and considers it one of his prize posessions, now THAT is awesome work! I still have to fiddle with it when I go to his house.

Again, thanks for the wonderfull comment!
