Ultimate Shock W.A.V.E.

I think this is my best Shockwave custom that I ever did, not to mention if Hasbro did this with the D.E.F. Shockwave figure, many collectors might have made him their default version of the character.

The tiger whale is tight, looks great and I love the shark (whale) mouth.

But has anyone tried to make a joe C-130 transport. the guys used it all the time in the comics and I kept praying hasbro would make one. I tried as a kid to make one out of a shoe box and failed miserably. just wondering there are a lot of talened people out there.

Here is a custom helmet I did for my Shockwave v3 figure. I repainted a Sky Patrol helmet that came with one of my figures and was inspired by this pic from Leonardo T. Dragon's 1992 Cutter review:

OK, I've told some people here that I'd put up some pics of a Raven I've been working on. It's almost finished. The idea is to convert it into a spy plane by getting rid of the missile launchers, drone, and rear facing gun. The bomb bay will become the "information storage compartment" (cameras would be between that and the front landing gear.) I just need to get modeling plastic to make some removable storage devices to replace the bombs. I should also replace the clear rubber band with a black one to keep the cockpit tray up. The top half of the fuselage is from the original Night Raven, everything else is from the Sky Patrol Sky Raven. This makes for an all-black fuselage. I'm thinking about using markings similar to the SR-71. Anyway, if you've got the parts to spare, this is actually a very simple custom to do. The last pic is a size comparison to 21st Century's Starfighter. I never realized before, but the Raven is a pretty good size. I'll get some more pics up when it's completed.
