Mini comic Stratos with staff of Avion

**Hunter Knight** · June 26, 2011, 08:00pm

Hello guys, First of all to thank for the success of the "he-man green lantern" crossover figure, due to the huge amount of mails, requests and suggestions, I will make a couple more characters based on this concept....Stay tuned for the next mini-sode!!

But since I make my figures with weeks of advance, the one I have ready for this weekend was STRATOS! I made some research on the vintage mini comic style and found a rich variety of re-decos and sculpts, that can be applied in Motuc

The one that caught my eye was Stratos, he had one of the most radical changes of looks so I translated that into the Motuc line, but with some upgrades: Modded neck so he can look up when flying, rotating wings, retooled left hand so he can actually hold accessories, and since he did not came with any weapons, I gave him the fabled "Staff of Avion" seen in the episode "Reign of the monster" of the classic series. It was airbrushed in gold paint for a smoother look. The figure then was repackaged with the classic HKC badge. It's listed on "The bay" now.

Here is the video:

Great job, that looks really natural like it was designed to be that way.

hunter, are those mossman feet? i've been wanting to give my stratos toed feet and i don't think beastman or carniverous would look right.

Nope, those were casts of the 200X Skeletor, modded to look less "veiny" and adapted into the motuc socket

Great fig. Since Stratos came out, I really wanted Matty to come up with this figure. Yours is definitely pro-grade.
