Commander Straker

Want to open up with this, even though this is a custom I had little to do with it. The majority of the credit goes to Martin at distinctive dummies. All I did was make the packaging.

Since I was a kid, I've been obsessed with the tv series UFO. I've always found the characters lend themselves to action figures but there hasn't been much on that front. I've made my own customs in the past but they never hit the spot, so I just finally had more talented folks do it for me.



Thanks to my friends Ed and Sean, I managed to even get a little replica pistol out of the deal.







Overall, this has been a remarkable experience and one I hope to repeat.

I made a few extra that I will be selling here as well. Thanks for looking.

Looks amazing! Nice job.

Not familiar with the show but the figure looks to be dead on to the picture. Well done.

When I was watching the show, I actually took a surplus Action Jackson head and gave it white hair and a little repainted and thought it good to pass for Straker. This one is much better, of course.

Heh, I painted Hutch 18 years ago, it was passable but you know.....

Looking good Brian. Love the packaging

Love the clothes on that guy. he is looking mod.

He looks more like he'd be more at home in a show of Avant Garde artists than hanging around UFOs!

Nice figure

looks great ..

but is it just me or does that head look like it would make a great Thomas Jane?

I'm unfamiliar wit the show, but I think the whole effort looks marvelous--great likeness, quality clothing, perfect Megoesque packaging.

That is cool! Luv the card art.

Got one off Palitoy this weekend ... it is super great in person. Top notch custom work with both the card and the figure. Definitely going for the set.

Also picked up a Christopher Lee Sherlock Holmes from samurainoir and it too is fantastic. Love the suspenders!
