    Lightbulb Rambo, Mego style.

    As soon as I got a couple of the newer bandless mego bodies in hand...I knew it had to be done.

    Fun fact: When the company Coleco first released their Rambo figures line, they accidentally made the heads a bit too large. Later on the sizes would be corrected.
    The larger heads size pretty ok to Megos. Specially the newer bodies.

    Head + knife: Coleco Rambo
    body: Mego Shazam
    outfit + rifle : CTVT

    And here he is wearing the M65 jacket that originally came with the Diamond select Punisher set.
    I truly WISH classictvtoys would release one, or mego could release one... the possibilities are endless...

    I'd love to get 2 or 3 more of the jacket. Would love to do a Travis Bickle.

    So not only does this look great but you've opened some possibilities for other customs. The Rambo line has great head sculpts that include ninjas and more importantly people of colour!

    The figure looks great. Nice job. I like the idea of the Travis Bickle figure. Bickel is my last name so any figure with that last name would be awesome.
