    Dr. Octopus

    dr. octopus.jpg Just finished carding Dr. Octopus. the body was originaly a Boss Hogg figure The suit is from Tmanstoys, the gloves are from a retro Darkseid painted yellow. The boots are pirate boots painted yellow. The belt is a section of belting from a Famous Cover Cyclops. I think the head was sold to me by Magyar64 and painted by me. Finally a custom backer card was printed to seal up the Doctor. This was a fun one to make.

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news dude, but your Octopus is missing 4 of his tentacles.

    We may have to re-name him Dr. Fouropus.

      Dr. Octopus merely has his tentacles retracted while he is sealed up on his backer card.

              Yeah. OK.

              I'm calling him Dr. Fouropus anyway just to antagonize him. Maybe I'll get him angry enough he'll un-retract them and attack me with them LOL

                I don't think he'd get thru that bubble. I agree with Austin, tho. Kinda missed the boat with no tentacles.

                  I could always unseal him and add some tentacles behind him in the future if I were to find some tentacles in Mego scale. As for now I am sticking to the story that his tentacles are simply retracted. Thank you to those that pointed out his flaws. It makes be a better customizer.

                    really nice old school Ock!
                    but no tentacles??? do a google search, lots of people have used lots of different things for tentacles.
