Continuing what is becoming an unintentionally arachnid-centric week of MOTU customs at Nerd City is this sweet Black Widower MOTUC custom by Masterenglish. It’s cool to see such a simple, yet effective repaint done by someone who has mad sculpting/ customizing skills. The moral of the story? Sometimes a well executed repaint color scheme can be every bit as impressive as complexly resculpted custom figure. Also, stuff like this should show Mattel that there is still great potential for more original characters that are repaints of existing figures (much like Stinkor and Moss Man back in the 80’s).
And, his eyes freaking glow in the dark!

What? What?
More pics/links after the jump! (more…)

Check out this sweet new Stinkor from Madtinker76 based off of a Marvel Legends Tech Gear Beast figure.
From Madtinker76:
I am over due for a MOTU Character….was not a fan of the character as a child but I love the recent Staction figure from the four horsemen. So this is heavily influenced from the revamped design.
I added a little more color into his costume..I thought it would be cool in addition to smelling like a skunk if he could also shoot his stench. So I added the wrist blasters. It could be filled with water for a squirt effect but, I think I am going to come up with some sort of attachment that looks like the blasters are shooting off some green stuff.. I havent figured that out.. LOL

For as much as I love the wacky, anything goes designs of the figures and characters that Real Head puts out, it’s cool to see an artist use a custom of an RxH toy to pay homage to the line that truly set the standard for anything goesish wackiness, Masters of the Universe. I’ve been a fan of the custom work of Motorbot for quite some time (and have intended to feature some of his designer vinyl/ kaiju work on this blog for a while, now). This particular custom is a colorway of the mini version of the RxH Mutant Head is obviously inspired by the “Evil Master of Odors”, Stinkor. It is my understanding that this custom does not, however, actually stink.


Check out some more of Motorbot’s awesome customs and artwork at his flickr here.
