Iron Tiger Seven was a 70's Japanese TV show. I thought it was a fun visual.
The hands & feet are cast. Still need to make the belt. I might make a second hand. One of the characters gimicks was that he had a "special" black glove that would fly off of his hand and karate chop his opponents in half.

It takes a good 3 hours to paint that head. As for total hours, I'm not sure. I've got so much other stuff going on during the summer that it's hard to get consistant toy making work time in.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys!

I'm not familiar with the character, but the head sculpt & paints are awesome.

(Suddenly, I'm mulling over a DC's Bronze Tiger custom:wink:)

Great work, Troy!

I'm not familiar with this character either, though he seems right up my alley. I love 70s and 80s anime. He's so cool.

Anyway, its an awesome looking figure. Good luck with it and please post pics when you finish.
