    Fear...Dr. MAN-tis!

    The doctor will see you now! This is my original character. Dr. MAN-tis (you have to pronounce the hyphen.) Once he was a scienist fooling with Mantid DNA (like you do), maybe trying to figure out how to turn his head 180 degrees, I don't know. He never told me.



    He's a combo of a Doc Mego body with a Xevoz Bonecutter figure. Doc coat, CTVT pants. Lots of paint, varnish and more paint, really.



    I was kinda surprised that the lab coat didn't cover where the arms connected, so I had to try to blend.



    Oh, and that's a Doctor Venture cast head under. Got that from a demon at a crossroads. Thanks demon, you know who you are!



    I worked hard on him, so be gentle! Anywhichway, thanks for looking!

              That's super cool. Excellent figure.

              Reminds me of an alien Green Lantern.
