Custom Marvel Legends Green Arrow by collectablekid

Posted by Mig on Tuesday, December 11, 2007 @ 5:19 AM | PERMALINK | More Custom Figures: Custom Transformers | Custom Marvel Legends | Custom Star Wars | Custom GI Joe
I have always admired collectablekid's ability to sculpt figures as he has taken customizing to the next level. His Custom Marvel Legends Green Arrow is no exception! Crafted after the Smallville appearance of Green Arrow, collectablekid has done an amazing job bringing this one to life. Here are some of the details from the auction:
  • ONE OF A KIND Green Arrow figure based on his look in the CW television series SMALLVILLE- detailed, re-sculpted, repainted by hand custom figure

  • 34 points of articulation (neck, fingers, wrists, shoulders, elbows, hips, waist, knees, feet, ankles...)- in scale with other current DC and Legends figures (approximately 7" tall w/hood

  • Custom made accessories include: high-tech longbow, 2 longbow arrows, crossbow, 1 crossbow arrow
There are a few aspects of this custom that really stand out. First, the costume design is one of the high points of this custom. I especially like the way hood lays on the figure as it is very natural and flows with the figure. The colors are perfect for this figure as the right shades of green were selected and applied in stunning detail. The signature 'G' on the front of the figure rounds out the costume and it is this level of attention to detail that makes collectablekid's customs special. Second, this custom actually looks human as the figure is proportional and the face of the figure has an element of mystery and emotion, something very hard to achieve in a custom but collectablekid has talent! Finally, the weapons complete this figure. The high tech long bow and crossbow are to scale with the figure and how the character on the show wielded them. To put it simply, the weapons are bad ass!


This highly detailed one of a kind Custom Green Arrow is up for grabs on eBay so place your bid now!
