    Thanks! Here's one I snapped of Union Jack and Spitfire:



    UJ was made with my leftover Golden Age Flash (after using his boots for Captain America and belt for Bucky), and Spitfire is Black Canary with a breast reduction (I used the more ample bosom for Miss America with Zatanna'a head). Union Jack's mask is removable.

            Hey, Warlock664 how did you take the head off the Marvel Icon body? Will a blow dryer enable the head to come off the neck stud without breaking? I ask because coincidentally I went thru my collection of toys a while back and noticed I could save space by popping off the unmasked Captain America and Wolverine Icons I own. (Too bad the toys were issued as a variant instead of making swappable heads.)

              My "tried and true" method (in use since the days of my Famous Covers customs) is to immerse the head and upper torso into a pot of boiling water for a minute or two, the plastic will soften and the head usually just pops off. If it doesn't want to pop easily, just dip it back into the boiling water for a bit longer. I've never used a hair dryer, though I suppose it would work as well.

                  I am totally digging the Union Jack figure. I've been wanting to do him in 8-inch scale for a while and just never figured out how. Seeing this gives me some ideas...

                  Very, very nice work.
                  I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

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