    Snake Armor King Grayskull

    Hey guys, this is my first time posting here but I've been customizing on the fwoosh for a few years now.
    Snake Armor King Grayskull

    This custom was really more about planning than anything else. Planning and expensive action figures. Not to worry though, the only figure I completely destroyed was Snake Armor He-man. I used Tri-klops as the base body so I could change him back into normal KGS if I want (which I doubt I will).

    This is based on the first five minutes of the episode "Power of Grayskull" in it you see Grayskull battling the snake men in his version of the Snake Armor. KGS has no armored sleeve, armored leg or lower torso. I specifically tried to go for all of the specific differences of Grayskulls armor because when the 4H get to this they will more than likely do He-man's version.



    Recipe:
    Base body: Tri-klops
    Head: King Grayskull
    Shoulder Guard: weapons pak beatstman arm guard attached to Snake armor he-man shoulder guard
    Arm guard: trap jaw
    Everything Else: 200X Snake Armor He-man

    Really nice use of parts! I'm guessing this is how the big man defended Eternia from the Snakemen before The Horde wasted them.

    Do you plan on altering the paint scheme to make him more original?

    I think I'm going to leave him as is for now. I couldn't really bring myself to change it at this point. He wears this outfit in the episode The Power of Grayskull. Thanks for letting me use your power stat btw!

    very cool! what head is the zodak from? funny as it looks a LOT like my friend's sister's boyfriend.

    quick queation about KG (not a crit or a nitpick just a curiousity) how come his emblem isn't in the middle of his chest like the cartoon pic? its to the side like the He-Man version.

    Shame in the screencap the animators mis-coloured his armour part in flesh-tone. But you corrected it in the custom the way it's supposed to be.

    The Zodak head is from a UFC figure Cheick Kongo. You totally got me on the symbol not being dead center. I put it off to the side like He-man because I wanted it to be as secure as possible. There was more flat surface area on the arm guard, for the glue to stick to, than there would have been if it had been placed more center.

    Really? I wonder who posted it there. Could you link me to where you saw it? Thanks for the comment!

    Great Figure and excellent work! This was the version that I was expecting (or hoped) Mattel would release at the end of the year and not SANTA GRAYSKULL (YUCK!).

    Keep up the good work!

    No problem! May I ask if you can take a few pics with the standard He-Man head on this Snake Armor body? It would be nice if you could post a few.

    Just asking....no biggie.

    Great job!

    I tried this a while back and frankly it didn't look very good. It's also a pain to get the head off of the body because KGS' head isn't designed to be removable like the others. i'm going to swap on the new KGS head and then take some pics. Thanks everyone for your comments!
