25th Style FOOTLOOSE

Footloose was the first Hasbro AF figure I ever bought (it was pre-MAF comic by some weeks) and I remember buying him in York when I visited with the school. Anyway, made from a Tiger Force Flint I had spare, an Indy Jones head, a spare Dusty helmet, some Nazi hands, and the rest sculpted. I started this at 4pm today, and continued it after the nipper went to bed...

COOL.
cant believe you knocked this out so quick.
dont know the character as i was always into the bad guys.
altho my love for sas is justified as they are pretty bad for good guys.
once again my hat is well and truly tipped.

HOLY CRAP, that's an incredible recreation of the '85 Footloose figure!!
I'm a big fan of that character, he's somewhere in my Top 10 favorite Joes and seeing that makes me damn proud! You did an amazing job with that custom, Malcom!

Thanks guys.
Yes, the nappy figures are crap at sitting!
Here's the WIP pic - the moustache was sculpted.

In the end, Ironblood was quicker (though I already had the helmetted head) 2 hours to cut and sculpt, 2h to paint!
