custom customs

From the workshop of Shipshape1983:

“Sgt Slaughter was one of my favorite Joes as a kid. It was the Sarge who helped me get into Joes. I did a custom a few years ago, my second custom Joe ever actually. And for the time, it sufficed because of the parts available back than. Kind of a “best at the time” And he was great…

UNTIL

Retaliation gave us a figure of Roadblock played by the Rock!
This would give us customizers a larger new body to work with. Well it didnt take long for my fellow customizers to put two and two together.
But I was iffy about using the R body due to the skin tone. I would have had to paint the flesh. And that would mean potential paint rub off.

Well Vortious Customs Accessories and I felt the same way. And He created a conversion kit in Caucasian skin tone. The kit came with the head, torso, arms, hands, whistle, hat, and baton. I obtained one and went to work.”

Customs (use this one)

From the workshop of Shipshape1983:

“I am a BIG fan of the Mad Max films, my favorite being the first. I set about building up my Max custom figure last year, but had to put it on hold due to the lack of a proper head to use.

Well, recently, Hasbro released a couple of generic troopers in a K-Mart 2 pack. I saw a slight resemblance to Mel Gibson. I tried to replicate the look of the first film’s uniform as best I could.”

We all remember the days when we went to go buy the latest G.I. Joe and they were sold out or they hadn’t come in yet, but we could get the Corps Figure which was cheaper and was just that, but we still got them anyway and played with them. You probably even remember some of their names. Well Shipshape1983 has been hard at work bringing the Corps to the Modern age and wow, what a great job he’s doing! Give it up for Shipshape1983’s Corps…
