Here's a new custom figure I've been working on this week... ![](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/raggletag01/MattTrakkerResize.jpg) Matt Trakker from M.A.S.K.! I always thought the original MASK figures were a bit too small, so I made this custom in the 3 & 3/4" scale like a GI Joe figure. In fact I used various GI Joe figures to create the body (the upper torso and arms are from a Tripwire, not sure about the rest), then I cut up pieces of a watch band to make the strapping for the flightsuit. I used some artistic license and painted his belt line black because I thought the whole suit being light gray looked off. Also I went with the red neckline for the same reason, though occasionally they colored it on the cartoon like that too. Finally the head came from a Robotech Roy Fokker figure, which I used an exacto knife to carefully cut the excess sideburns off of. ;P (The head came off of an extra Roy figure I had, but I wouldn't mind getting a new one to put back on the figure. So if anyone can help, give me a holler!!) This is still a work in progress though, as I'd like to add a bit more strapping to the flightsuit and definitely want to make a Spectrum mask for it. I'll post an updated picture when I get around to finishing the project. -Tony
