diosoth Posted June 30, 2010 Incomplete, unassembled and unpainted so far. It'll be based on the classic Doom marine. Legs from Bazooka, Hips and arms from Ripper, torso and armor from Wraith. The head will probably be taken from one of the 4000 Duke figures made http://yojoe.com/action/08/duke26.shtml The helmet I plan to steal from a Cobra Eel as it's "close enough" http://yojoe.com/action/08/eel4.shtml I have a pistol and rocket launcher. I can buy a chainsaw and double barrel shotgun from Marauder Inc, a parts supply site that makes accessories for smaller figures. The Plasma gun and BFG will need to be scratch-built. 0 Share this post Link to post
MmM Posted July 2, 2010 Your base body choice looks good--I look forward to seeing the completed figure. I hope you'll consider making some demons to go with him--the Montezuma skeleton from the Serpentor DVD pack (although I believe that set is somewhat hard to find, so it'd probably be a bit costly) would probably make a good starting point for a Revenant (Hasbro might have made some skeletons for the Indiana Jones line in that scale too). http://www.oafe.net/yo/gij25dvdasa.php 0 Share this post Link to post
diosoth Posted July 2, 2010 I have a spare Ripper/Torch 2-pack that was sent to me damaged and a replacement mailed, I plan to use both of those to make a zombie and shotgun guy. I made a Lost Soul last year which is to scale- I found a suitable base body for a Cyberdemon today 0 Share this post Link to post

Although I wonder what the TS would have to do for the visor. 0 Share this post Link to post
diosoth Posted July 3, 2010 The Cobra Eel helmet is already close enough to the Doomguy helmet that it won't need to be modified very much. If only I could find the Eel in the Family Dollar assortments... WIP on the Cyberdemon. Hulk figure with a GI Joe movie big gun weapon 0 Share this post Link to post
MmM Posted July 7, 2010 I think you posted that Lost Soul here before. The Hulk Cyberdemon is looking awesome--gouge out that abdomen and fill it with wires! I never see the Eel in Family Dollar either, just bazillions of Snake-Eyes and Baronesses. 0 Share this post Link to post

diosoth Posted July 9, 2010 Bank said:His hair's not green! If I get a more game-accurate head(Duke, probably) I'll do that. I've ordered a spare Eel helmet from another customizer. I also chose to use the Torch/Gung-Ho muscle torso for Doomguy as the neck sticks up a bit further, it'll help with the helmet's fit. 0 Share this post Link to post
diosoth Posted July 11, 2010 Shotgun zombie. I don't have a shotgun yet. The head isn't bald but it's all I had at the moment. Taggart. The head is temporary until I can get a Resolute Duke head. I'll have a helmet shortly though. 0 Share this post Link to post

diosoth Posted July 19, 2010 My camera died on me last week so I have to use the flatbed scanner until I get a replacement. Updated Doomguy with helmet and plasma gun I've since made an exploding waste barrel. Dollar General carries a black play slime called "Dr. Wacko's Silly Sludge" that comes in a black plastic container made to resemble a metal barrel. I painted it gray with a silver coat and filled it up with "slime" by tossing in bits of junk and slathering hot glue over it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Clonehunter Posted July 19, 2010 Hey maybe you could be these up for like a Doom Toy Line... Toys from Doom, Doom 2, Doom 3, Doom Movie, even the guy from the comic and bloody fist o' guts. It would be epic! :) 0 Share this post Link to post

Make sure you add the supershotgun with it,just get like two wooden dowels as the barrels and spray paint them black,the stock you can easily forge it from basic small semi-thick piece of wood. 0 Share this post Link to post

diosoth Posted July 28, 2010 Pounds of WHAT? Those look terrible. Maybe a few pounds of dog poop, but not currency. Completed Sergeant. The shotgun was donated and I used the secondary head of Beach Head for the bald look. 0 Share this post Link to post

When i was young i never came across an action figure with a shotgun that detailed. I've heard of GBP, I just don't see those things being worth any actual money. Terrible wax lumps based on the movie of all sources, when will Id finally wise up and give some company a REAL Doom character license? The shotgun is from the company BBI which makes 1:18 scale soldiers and guns. It was donated to me by a member of Joe Customs. There are very few standard shotguns at that scale, Hasbro preferred to make ones with pistol grips for the life of G.I. Joe. 0 Share this post Link to post

40oz Posted July 29, 2010 I don't think Hasbro makes arachnatrons These are really cool. I think I still have a bunch of these guys in my basement somewhere, but I'm afraid to dissassemble them because I'm afraid I might not know how to but them back together. They don't really sport the doomish assets either. 0 Share this post Link to post
diosoth Posted August 1, 2010 BFG-9000 I used the big stupid disc launcher from ROC Storm Shadow with pieces cut off. The front end is a trimmed Ripper backpack and USB device cap with the handle from ROC Cobra Commander's big stupid gun grafted into the side(carved an L-shaped groove and glued it in with epoxy). The side handle was necessary to even hold this thing. Display requires two stands. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doomguy458 Posted August 3, 2010 Awesome work on the BFG,but you forgot the the buttstock with a curve thing that looks like it's supposed to go on the sholder,what happened to that? Also,what are you going to use for the Robotic Goat leg for the Cyberdemon? 0 Share this post Link to post

Also,what are you going to use for the Robotic Goat leg for the Cyberdemon? The folding stock piece would interfere with the ability to hold the BFG so I left it off. The back end has a hole though, from where I cut off the original stock end so I can always build one if I wish. The 2nd side handle shouldn't be there either but it's necessary just to hold the gun. It weighs a lot and the back end is up to the chest. See the original launcher I cut up- http://yojoe.com/action/09/stormshadow32.shtml I'm trimming down the PVC of the leg and will be gluing spare bits to it to mimic a mechanical look. It's probably easier than trying to buy another toy of the same size. It may not be totally game accurate but should be good enough. The hoof will be the small screw-on end of a kitchen faucet. 0 Share this post Link to post
diosoth Posted August 7, 2010 Finalized zombie soldier with proper game-based head. The head is from one of the 400 or so variations of Duke, the one I used had some minor damage anyway which was turned into one of the facial cuts. 0 Share this post Link to post
