    No sleep til Manta

    I stayed up into the wee67 hours finishing this guy. I needed an excuse to make one considering that Mego will do so soon enough, so I made mine a little different.

      I forgot to add the recipe.

      Head, belt, hoses, and "tank" - DC $9.99 12" movie figure and a lot of freaking dremeling
      Eye lights - Pinewood derby LED kit
      Suit - hard to tell from crappy pics, but it's charcoal made by me. I wanted some contrast with the black plastic.
      Boots - Mego Batman
      Neck - PVC tube covered with silver fabric

      I also have Atlanna and Mera on deck.
