    Congorilla

    Frankensteined from Mego-type body parts and a head sculpted using the face from a Heroes of the Revolution head, a fully posablr Congorilla. He can stand either on all fours or like a biped. Feet from Classic TV Toys and the hands are from a Marvel Legends Mr Hyde build-a-figure.

      That is an impressive feat of toymaking. The body came out great! And the head looks like it was always meant to be an ape.

                I don't know what I admire more, the execution or the deep dive into one of the more ridiculous concepts in the DCU.

                        Put together a body using neck and arms from a CTVT 12" female figure, torso and hip from Maxx FX, and legs from a 7" Lion Rock scale figure for a fully posable gorilla.

                              They are female arms from a 12" Classic TV Toys female, built up with a little padding and a slight extension of the lower arm (a roll of paper and some kleenex taped around parts). Couldn't use anything too thick because of the thickness added by the fur.
