    Superargo!!!!

    Howdy all! I haven't really had much time for custom/kitbashing lately, been
    working 60+ hours aweek, with one day off! Anyway, I finally got this fellow finished. When I was a kid I use to really dig Superargo. He was like a combination of a wrestler and Batman. I haven't thought about him in along
    time. One day I came across him on-line, and found out he was from an Italian comic book and the movie I loved as a kid was from 1968. Damn it's
    as old as me
    Superargo was a wrestler who accidently killed his friend in the ring, quit
    the wrestling biz and became a supersecret agent. He had a bulletproof suit
    and could levitate thanks to the teachings of his mystic guru. Great stuff
    when you are a kid!
    I decided I needed to update Superargo, Mego-style of course He
    ain't perfect, but I'm happy with him! Thanks for looking and enjoy.

        Neat modernization! El Tigre should have known better than to have tangled with SuperArgo, friend or no friend.

        SuperArgo also had a healing power, I always wondered if it inspired wolverine in some small way.

                I like the work, it looks good. What kind of material did you use for the neck piece?

                        Now that is really cool.
                        And I recognized those shorts immediately as being Joe's

                              Very cool idea to update the character. The figure looks great and reminds me
                              that I still have to get around and do a custom Superargo.
