    THE BLUE KNIGHT (Astro City)

    Have I ever mentioned how much I love a kitbash?

    This is the BLUE KNIGHT from ASTRO CITY. He's sort of a combination of the Punisher and Ghost Rider with a slain-cop-out-for-vengeance theme. Some combination of high-tech gunslinger and supernatural demon. For non-Astro City citizens:



    This is my custom/kitbash of him...



    Mostly G.I Joe and Real Hero parts. CTVT skull graciously provided by TrueDave. I sanded down the FC neck and dremeled out the body so that the skull fits in just like a mego. I actually put the helmet together from several different parts.







    Thanks for checking him out!

                              No, actually he is just a large-body Famous Cover. He just has a lot of 1/6 scale gear. The helmet is a combo of 9 inch scale helmet with a 12 inch scale faceplate.
