Matthew Jaycox Customs
 

 

   Batman and Robin: I got the ideas for these customs one day when I was washing my hair. As a gag gift, people at work had gotten me Batman shampoo for my birthday. The head was approximately the right size, so I lopped it off and made a recast of it. I like the Animated series look so much on him that I decided he needed a partner. Robin's head is an original Super Sculpey work, and he was modeled after the most recent animated series version (Tim Drake). The body is a Lion Rock 7". Batman's pouch belt came from a Lion Rock soldier as well. (I'm not sure which one). Bat insignia on his chest is black Contact paper. I have no idea why the lining of Robin's cape came out white in the scan It's yellow in real life. Boxes were designed by me and have a wrap-around cityscape on them.

Two Face: This unfortunately is the best scan I have of this guy at this point. I 'm ambivalent about this, one of my earliest customs. His suit is great, but I don't like the head anymore. I'm working on a new head. This one is from a candy dispenser (not Pez). Shoes are one Penguin shoe, one Boss Hog shoe.

 
Flash: Completed this guy shortly after Batman and Robin. Tried to get him 
in the animated Series style as well, because I liked how he had looked on 
the cartoon. Head is an original sculpt. Wings on the head came from grappling prongs on a BTAS Batman grappling hook gun (In the Batman/2-Face 2-pack I believe). Suit is handsewn, lightning and decals are yellow contact paper and white electrical tape. Shazam boots of course.

 
  Spectre: Though not my first custom, this was the first I ever did with my 
own sculpt for the head. I tried something easy because I knew that hood would hide alot. He's basically just a bald guy with no ears (shhhh, don't tell him).  I like the idea of the white body suit because I think it's 
what Mego would have done. The idea for Spectre's box is a blatant rip-off of Scott Arendsen's 
Spectre box (as is the  Flash). But I didn't know you guys when I made  it, and consequently never thought I'd even come in contact with you. (Don't sue me Scott)
