    Captain America charity kitbash

    My wife has really become good friends with her hair stylist. She's coming out of an abusive marriage with a steroid freak, both physical and mental. They have a six-year old son who's a huge Marvel COmics fan and was also abused. He only wears shirts with Marvel characters all over them. They were over here a couple of weeks ago and looked at my customs. He mentioned to my wife how much he'd like a figure.

    His favorite is Cap, so I tried my best to throw one together as quickly as possible. I had an Austin screened suit I never used, an old head that went unused and a Famous Covers shield. The boots and glove cuffs are hand-sewn and I made the belt. It's not the greatest, but not too bad for a quickie.

    I gotta give it up for Megospidey Derek Combs for the box. That really put this over the top for me. He's actually on his way over here as I'm writing this. Hopefully he digs this.

    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

            He turned out really, really nice Scott. I know he's going to flip when he sees it (if he hasn't already)

                          He's great! That kid is going to be over the moon when you give him this figure!

                          Uh, it IS kid-proof and tough enough to be played with, right?
