    Firefly--the villain not the show

    Another of my takes on a classic Bat villain!

    I kept the modern interpretation of the character as an arsonist, but added back ih his history as a special effects wizard. He is now armed with a flame thrower, along with several smoke, incendiary, and flash grenades.

    He has also, much like the originals light belt, added a light projecting system into his armor (the colored lenses on his thighs). this allows him to project blinding kaledescopic light shows, as well as 3-D images of whatever he programs into the system.

    the lenses on his mask are actually cameras which allow him to see in the dark, or through the murkiest of his fog grenades. They also allow him to be unaffected by his lights optical effects.

    The controllers on his left and right sides control the lights, can be used to detonate remote bombs and effects equipment, as well as ignite rockets in his boots, giving him either a built in smoke effect for escape, or allowing him to fly short distances.


    His head, arms, legs, and wings were swiped off of a Tron black Guard figure. His torso is a modified UFC figure from Jakks Pacific.
    the flame thrower and tank (on his back) are from Chap Mei figures. the rest is odds and ends from 12" military figures and Mego parts.

                      Very good. I like the idea. I saw the Tron figures today and I must say that you did a great job with it.
