    Custom Cyborg

    Hello,

    I'm not much of a customizer, but I have wanted to put together a Cyborg for a long time. My goal was that it didn't need to be perfect, but I wanted to use only vintage parts, no repro items. I think I accomplished that although I did use some modern safety tape to trim it out and modern paints. Here's what I used:

    Body - Mego Type 2 Falcon
    Head - Mego Type 2 Falcon and Mego Type 2 Iron Man (don't hate me for cutting up an Iron Man head!)
    Gloves - Mego Type 2 Iron Man (painted)
    Boots & Armor - Mego Type 2 Tin Woodsman
    Body Suit - Hasbro Charlie's Angels Slalom Caper (legs cut down)
    Belt - Mego Type 2 Sir Launcelot (shortened and sword sheath holder cut down)








    I love him!

    Great recipe and I laud your approach of using only vintage ingredients.
