The body is a CTVT altered, new hip joints, ball joint neck, and hands and boot feet. hands and feet from a TNA wrestling figure. perfect size for Mego scale. Gear and belt from Monkeydepot. I decided to give him a hood instead of the collar, since it probably gets cold on rooftops waiting for Two Face to show at the Second National Bank. :grin:

Very cool, Thunderbolt. The body is the perfect size to fit with Batman. How did you alter a CTVT body?

There's a pic before I added the hands and feet. The TNA Wrestlers have ball joint hands that with a little work will adapt to Mego. The feet took a bit more engineering. I cut off the molded hip joint and dremelled it out smooth. I restrung it with the wooden ball strung thru. I am going to do the shoulders like this next time. The head is doen sort of like that with the ball joint at the neck.

Very nice swashbuckler look to him....

[fallensaviour]

Holy Moly,That looks freakin great T-bolt.I mean that looks awesome.The only thing I'm not loving is the "R" on his chest but other than that pure excellence!!!

P.S. Where did you get that excellent belt and how much are they?I need belts and buckles but no pouches.

[thunderbolt]

^^^ Monkeydepot.com. Search for Female police Belt, its the right size for Mego.

Tbolt those look fantastic,,I really like the b and w pic, puts them in contex. Looks like an Old movie pic of some bat show you missed. Nice work dude.
Your surfing the frenge out side the box and Luv N It :)

[GSPUSA]

Very nice job, great detail.

[Earth 2 Chris]

That design is really cool. Kind of a gritty reimagination of the Golden Age Robin! Looks like something Howard Chaykin might come up with.

Now that I think of it, there was a Robin redesign that was published in a Batman Gallery comic back in the 90s that had a hood and more medevial look like this. It was a proposed design for Tim Drake's Robin costume. Great minds think alike!!!

Great work!

Very interesting interpretation. I especially like the hood on the cape

[batmanmc]

i like the robin head .. he looks good next to batman.

[MIB41]

NICE customs T-Bolt! You have a true gift for the craft. Great figures from the classic serials. Well done!:yes:

[kingdom warrior]

That's the best Robin I've ever seen really gives him a Retro/modern swash buckler look...great Cloak!

[BlackKnight]

You know when you origionally shared your work inprogress pics of him,.. I absoultly thought you droped the ball on your figure. I thought he was horrible.... & was kinda wondering what you were smoking down there... :yuk: However , now since you shared your completed figure, I must say he looks Outstanding. :yes: Your interpretation of the character looks Fantastic,.. I love everything from the hoody, to the costume itself. He has kinda a Serial / What if / Robinhood kinda vibe. Congrats on a great vison,.. very creative & well done. & Your best at your new direction of figure making. :smile:

[monkeyboy]

Def 'something out of elseworlds.looks like a robin hood version not the innocent dick we all love!obviously took alot of time to make!not sure its my kinda robin but i appreciate the labor and effort!lot of folks like the darker versions!

[palitoy]

Cool and Piratey, if that's a word. If you had told me it was from an elseworlds comic, I'd have believed you.

[QDOGG]

Just another AWESOME custom T-Bolt! I love the 1930's style you invoke. After this you forced me to go spend some money at the Monkeydepot:grin:
