    Wonder Man

    Yup, Simon Williams.

    Here's almost a kitbash of sorts.

    I had all the components sitting around here, so I threw him together this afternoon. I always liked him in Avengers and felt he was never really used right or to his potential. After I took the pics I remembered he had some sort of jet boosters on his belt. I'll have to make those.

    This is another world debut for a head. I initially wanted to use this for a Conner kent Superboy, but this worked out pretty well. My head supplier has some cool generic heads that can be customized as needed. That's something lacking in this hobby.

    I thought the glasses were kinda goofy, but after seeing the pic I'll post it anyway. Pretty simple figure overall, nothing earth-shattering or all that impressive.

    for a throw-together kit-bash, that is sharp. especially like the eyes - with or without the glasses!

        Though I personally prefer the red safari jacket version of Wonder Man...that is an amazing figure! Well done!

                        That is one sweet custom my friend always loved me some Wonder Man. Although, I'll have to agree with Haggis on the Safari Jacket, He would look even cooler sporting it

                            Nice job, I particularly like his eye paint as well.
