Hound Dog (G.I. Joe) Custom Action Figure

Here is Hound Dog, yet another unproduced character from COPS n Crooks (I put GI Joe in collection as is the closest thing). Most complicated was doing his strange harness weapon with molten plastic, and his removable helmet. It seems Hasbro had well prepared the next wave, judging by the amount of prototypes ready. #custom #customfigure #argenta #argenta2008 #copsncrooks #hounddog

Spigot (G.I. Joe) Custom Action Figure

 

Here is Spigot, one of the "Pranksters", the new enemy of COPS n Crooks that never made it past preproduction. I attach one of the dealers catalogues where the prototype appears. I got a COPS n Crooks figure, and modified extensively. Most complicated was his two bazookas. Mask is removable. #custom #customfigure #argenta #argenta2008 #copsncrooks #spigot

Jolt (G.I. Joe) Custom Action Figure

Here is Jolt, specialist in electronic warfare. With a very ARAH GI Joe style, possibly my favourite of the unproduced figures. It was quite complicated to sculpt all the thunders in him, and to do the removable helmet. I engineered his head from a Power Rangers, which had a weird look in his face that was just what I needed. #custom #customfigure #argenta #argenta2008 #jolt #copsncrooks

Sewer Rat (COPS n' Crooks) Custom Action Figure

Here is the last (for now) of the COPS n Crooks unproduced customs I made. One of the coolest, this is Sewer Rat, specialist in underground burglaring! He seems to be screaming "Cobra!" all around. The client who asked me for it wanted a black african head for him, although I think the original was going to be white (maybe in the cartoon he was going to be black, they did some major changes to the aspect from toy to series, I don't know). I used a small hulk head engineered to make it. The tunneling machine is a Cars car heavily modified. Most difficult was making the head, but it still turned out quite well and quick. Matching the magenta pink was a challenge, and it still could be more pinkish, it is hard to find such a bright colour. #custom #customfigure #argenta #argenta2008 #copsncrooks #sewerrat
