    I am continually amazed by the work of some of the customizers on this board. This figure is truly inspiring.

    I'd say, "If only Mego had made these when I was a kid..." but lets be honest... if Mego made these when we were kids, they wouldn't be anywhere this well done.

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                        Wow! I don't think mattel, BBP or EMCE could do better. That's perfect.

                                Yeah,i like the look and articulation of the Zica body.Some dont like that it doesn't bend at the waist,but that dont really bother me,side to side is good enough.Stormtroopers dont do much sitting around.Some lay around... The only problem was the bulkier arms and legs,so i made slimmed down arms and legs.This helped to make the armour fit better,more streamlined and not over bulky.It also allows the leg armour to slide for better poseability.The lower leg/foot joint was also changed to the Mego like tongue and groove joint.Of course those will be included with the kit.You use the boil and pop method to pop the upper Zica arm and leg joints off and pop the new ones on.

                                                When it comes to "Do or do not" you "did". Amazing! Please sell this is a kit.
                                                If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                                                    Late to the praise party, but let me chime it on how great that looks! Bravo sir! It's the toy I WISH they made when the movies originally came out.
