Your Havok turned out excellent. That's what he should look like.

Truely masterful! I love the head piece! Aluminium foil?

Thanks. Yes, I used foil for the headgear. I was going to use paper, which I
could have cut thinner, but the purist in me insisted the vanes be silver.
Have to find a better way to do the chest effect.

JB -
What character did you use for Havok? Might be a good one to stock up on.

Nice Havok JB.
Now there is the version that deserves the Classic Marvel figurine collection treatment.

JB,
Great figurines!!! I've always wondered, do you have a soft spot in your heart for what I call Marvel's "70's chicks" --- Spider-Woman, Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk, Red Sonja, etc.? Whenever you work on them, people fall in love. For example, your Ms. Marvel on Avengers, Red Sonja in Marvel Team-Up, and of course, the impact you had on She-Hulk in FF.

What character did you use for Havok?••• Iceman! And I bought two spares, in case I get inspired again. He's the least detailed -- for Havok I just had to scrape off his belt and his ears, and cut off his icicle "dagger". I mentioned previously, too, that Angel might make a good Guardian/Vindicator conversion, albeit with a lot more work on the head. If I get really industrious, I might try converting Juggernaut into the Rhino, since I am not thrilled with the Eaglemoss version.

Havok looks great, JB, I'll have to add a couple of Iceman figures to my next Midtown order. The Surfer is nearly the same pose, and a bit taller, so he'd work well for conversions as well.
Free Time, wherefore art thou?

Finally surrendered and bought a Wolverine. Not sure about a conversion, tho.
