    the Atom

    Another in my Atomic Age series of "what if the Justice Society were still in print in the fifties" figures.

    Al here is a pretty much the original version, with some elements from his Cyclotron charged days.

    I made his belt bigger to act more like a weight lifters belt. I also decided to re-use the hands the source body came with, and repainted them into new "Atom Smasher" gloves.

                Thanks everybody.

                Yep, your right Ed, UFC body and head.At 5-7 bucks a piece right now, its hard to beat them. Plus the articulation is fantastic.Mattel should look at these!!
                I forget who the guy was/is, but he stood a bit shorter than the other fighters, which made him perfect for the Atom. I just made the mask, and left the Jakks head on the body....removeable mask Atom!!
