Here's my collection of 12in KISS figures - Eric is a complete custom made from a Paul figure, Ace's head was from a Paul figure as well with reroot. Peter has had a complete reroot, and I am now in the process of working on a custom Vinnie Vincent figure also made from a Paul figure - complete with reroot. I handpainted Ace, Eric, and soon to be Vinnie myself. Pics to come when Vinnie is completed.

they look great. The Carr figure is especially nice. I gotta say I like the vintage Ace head, tho. Not sure why you would use the captain for that figure, but the suit looks great. Looking forward to the Vinnie. Would love to see these in the 8" scale as well. Are these on vintage bodies or the new CTVT? or a mixture of both?
again, good job

Thanks.. I didn't have an original Ace and they are hard to come by without paying an arm and a leg for..at least on Ebay.. They all have vintage bodies. A few are not from the "original" KISS line, but all in all the bodies are the same nonetheless.. Hate how fragile they are tho. Especially when trying to get those boots back on. :)

Good job. I like your enhancements to Gene with the arm and leg bands. I also like the added crosses on Peter's arm bands. Nice touch. All the outfits have a nice splash of glam rock to them. You do good work. Can't wait to see your Vinnie Vincent. Great customs!

It would be kind of fun to see a no- makeup set of Bruce and Mark hanging out with these guys.

Musically Eric Carr was a way better drummer anyway! RIP

I really LOVE the work you did with these. I know I'd love to have that Eric Carr. Great job indeed!! :yes:
Oh, and I'm happy you did not mix Vinnie with the boys. The guy -incredibly talented guitarist that he is- just doesn't belong there.

This is probably why the Daryll Dragon loose bodies and heads have had their prices rise. Everyone is using them for KISS figures!! LOL
Great work!
