    The evil mutant, "TOAD"

    Well, I have been busy with music and haven't had time to make anyone new. I have had this one on the backburner for awhile. I bought a Famous Cover's Toad from someone and I was going to shrink the head until I read some X-Men back issues and noticed that Toad is sorta short, fat and appears to have a fat head so I decided to keep the head the same.

    I took in the Famous Covers suit to fit a Gymnastic Skipper body I found at good Will that I use from time to time to make "teen" figures (goto my figures and check out my Stargirl and Wondergirl). I had to literally dig out the neck and replant a new head base/neck made from sculptey and an old pen cap so Toad's head wouldn't sink into his shoulders and make him look neckless. That was the hard task.

    Then I created the purple lilly pad looking thing around his neck along with his custom booties I made from the same material. I wanted to keep Toad closer to the comicbooks. He has had so many incarnations and since the X-Men movie, they are now making him appear more like the character from the movie, which is sad.

    Here he is....The evil mutant, "TOAD"



    Tada!
    MAMMY!

      He is rather toad like. I like him. I also think it would suck to have his mutant powers. They aren't really all that appealing.

                Hey Cat,

                Have you posted any closeups of Mystique? I wanted to make a Mystique using that FC head like you did.
                theToad looks good. I did something similar. FCs make great custom fodder.
