Ted Kord-The Astonishing Blue Beetle

[Hulk]

Tbolt, so if it's 1/6th then it's a 12" figure?

Some of the gear is 1/6th (designed for 12 inch figures). The figure is 1/8th (Hasbro 9 inch figure), slightly larger than the typical 1/9th Mego scale (8 inch figures).

Another nice old timey look Joe.

There's a MIke Mignola vibe going on there...and I like it!

Man Tbolt that's fantastic work! I'm so tempted to pick up some of those cyclops for customs now.

I wanted to take the Beetle and turn him into a serial character of the 50's. I was heavily influenced by Commando Cody and Spy Smasher on this one. His backstory is that Commie industrial espionage agents are trying to raid Kord Industries. Ted throws together a costume and incorperates a few of the weapons he's working on, including a blaster gun. He carries a lot of his oddball inventions in a pack and pouch belt. Eventually I'll get some group pics of the League, when I finish up Supes and a few others.



The base body is a Hasbro Cyclops with a Leitner Flash head modified. All the gear is the usual 1/6th stuff along with a few Sigma Six bits.


Next up is a Aquaman based on the Captain Action comic book ad.
