Batman, Nick Fury and Alan Scott Green Lantern Playing Mantis AJ Project Pic Heavy

[Bronxboykev]

So about 5 months ago I found an AJ Playing Mantis lot on e bay, I had wanted it Mainly for the Suits for my AJ GI Joe project, but it came with the 3 bodies as well (In disrepair as you will see from the photos)... Wanting to make the most out of the lot I looked to see if the Bodies could be restrung, it wasn't that hard being they had a similar set up to the Muscle Body GI Joes of which about a month before this I had successfully restrung a Bulletman... I gathered my materials and set out on a Project... set out to Joanns and picked up materials and thread... Now what figures to turn them into... I knew what I wanted to do with 1 of the figures, but I turned to Facebook suggestions on the other 2.

This was far and away the most that I have put into Customizing Figures to this point from Restringing the Bodies to sewing the Suits and Capes myself by hand, an easy paint touch up on Nick Fury's hair and emblems from Paul Wasson and parts from Doc CTVT and the Batman's Boots from Ariel aka Boywonder... I hope I did them Justice
