    Custom Card and Bubble for Nurse Jill Danko

    Hello, Everyone.

    I posted my custom Jill Danko from The Rookies awhile back: http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=1128

    Since then, I've searched high and low for a recloseable bubble/clamshell that would accommodate my Jill Danko's hair and hat.

    I couldn't find one, so I made a makeshift card and bubble myself. The bubble is removable. Overall, I'm happy with it and I like how the figure looks inside it (I haven't put her accessories in it yet).

    I took a bit of creative license and used bolder colors for Jill's card.



    1. Here is a comparison of my Jill figure and card with an original carded LJN Terry.




    2. It was hard to get good closeup pix without the flash glare so I took a closer shot from an angle to reduce the glare:



    3. Lastly, here's a closeup of the figure through the bubble, as taken from the other direction.




    Thanks for looking!

    The larger card definitely looks better w/ Jill in it. Good job!

      The card looks great. Size is a little off compared to an original, but you did a nice job

        ^ Thanks, guys. I appreciate the feedback.

        Meule, You're right about the slightly larger card than the original LJN card, but I had to do that to accommodate the bubble I used. *shrug* It would have been nice to have been able to use a Mego-sized card, but Jill just turned out too tall!
