Very interesting design! Quality paint job with awesome details. I get a small movie Skeletor feeling, but it definitely stops with the "inspired by" part. In my mind, when it comes to costume design, Movie Skeletor is more of a mage than a robot.
Here is a Commision I did for my fellow .Orger and Friend STPrime. We collolaborated on the design and features, I did all the grunt work and he cracked the whip. Let me/us know what you think!

Mark you've done an amazing job and have far exceeded my expectations. Thank you for ALL the hard word and extra requests. I can't say thank you enough.
This was my vision of a movie Skeletor using existing parts with minimum modification. I always saw him not as a robot but wearing bionic armor that increased his strength physically and magically. He did have lights and wires on him if you look after all. Most importantly I wanted a version that was different than anyone else to date.
So, after finalizing my design I thought why not have some fun with it. I talked back and forth with Mark about "What if after he returned from the ooze at the special ending" that they made special modifications. So yes, kind of Darth Vader if you will, but not my original intention. Since there was a Roboto base I thought it would be fun to have various attachments and of course using Spy Monkey Creations too which he'll have more off later. Then i thought, why not a metal skull AND to take it even further, why not a robot one.
So like it, love, or hate it, this is all kinds of awesome! How can you not like 3 faces, 5 arm attachments, awesome moviesque sword and sweet staff?
Is it 100% accurate, no, but it's 100% more then I ever expected and my FAVORITE toy, custom or factory, EVER!
Thanks Brother, GO TEAM VENTURE!!!
