I really love making customs of Red Hood, and there's a bit of a backstory to this one. I watched a video by the YouTuber Ashens in which he reviewed the Final Faction line of action figures made by Dollar Tree. The character Scope really jumped out to me as a potential base figure for a Red Hood custom. Sure, the articulation is really limited, but the sculpt looks great and he even comes with twin pistols and holsters. I live outside the US and when I was in the US on vacation and passed by a Dollar Tree, I went in looking for Scope and was happy to get a hold of one. The head is from a DC Infinite Heroes Shadow Thief Demon, sculpted over and connected to the neck joint. I sculpted on the Bat-symbol on the chest and painted everything up. Thanks for looking!
Very nice custom Jedd! I can see from how the base figure originally looked that you saw potential in it to become a cool Red Hood. Amazing transformation from a Dollar Tree figure, well done.
Thank you for the kind words Ric! I think for me part of it was that this would something that would be relatively to get in the States or Canada but not so much outside it, so I was happy to get a hold of the base figure and turn it into Red Hood!
