Ha! So I lied! I knew I would repaint more of my old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle action figures when I stated I was finished for the year in my last post, and I fooled all seventeen of you. Evil Genius I am. Take that world! Anyway, here are the Rat King and Casey Jones. I dirtied up the Rat King a bit, painted in the extra details including that giant centipede on his chest (why was that not painted?!?), and gave him more of a mummy living in the sewer look. The original paint job was much too colorful for a sewer dwelling rat man.

Stay tuned for more repainted figures. Still tracking down the artists who created these toys and are responsible for helping to create the monster I am today. I promise my next post will be about something else. I'll be recommending three killer ventriloquist dummy movies along with a short film from HBO back in the 80s. I'll also be showing off my short shot-on-shitty-camera disaster I'm making with my family and custom painted Charlie McCarthy dummy. Happy Halloween!
Good efforts. All the best for approaching posts. I acquire bookmarked you. Able-bodied done. I apprehend and like this post. Thanks.

This makes me wish I still had some of my old Swamp Thing action figures. The cartoon was short lived and so were the figures I believe. but man would that be fun to try and make them more like the comics.
ReplyDeleteThanks fellas. Elyk, my brother had a few of those Swamp Thing figures. The bad guys were really cool. It seems like the late 80s and early 90s were the last good years for action figures that were actually made for kids. It seems they're only made for collectors now, and the ones that are made for kids aren't that cool, in my opinion.
