2D's custom marvel legends style GI JOE Dreadnok Ripper Figure

The 2nd member of my Dreadnoks used to be TNA wrestler Petey Williams with the head from Kraven the Hunter from the Spider-man line. The original figure had thick legs that I had to dremel down to get the build I wanted. Then I sculpted everything with Epoxy Putty. The shrapnel necklace were cut from a plastic bubble.

The power jaws (thanks J!) was made out of the thickest stripstyrene I could find. I cut them down, drilled the holes and dremeled them to shape. Then I glued some random parts I had and used epoxy putty to sculpt and blend them all in. The handles were an accessory to some Batman toy. The backpack was made from Alfred's dinner tray from Hasbro's old Batman animated line, a Gundam engine and the frame was made from the corners of a Gundam sprue.

He ended up being taller than I wanted since Petey Williams had flat wrestling shoes, and the heels I had sculpted on gave him some height. I wanted to give him a different right hand so he can better hold his jackhammer but I'm finally running out of usable hands in the parts bin. My only other regret was not making his tank top as ridiculously small as I originally wanted.
