Vintage customs: Zardoom, Beastos, and MIGHTY SPECTOR with goofy slideshow!

**Tyke** · September 3, 2012, 07:04pm

I made three customs, two of which are NOT controversial:

ZARDOOM THE IMPALER (some elements of the design based on COTU):

BEASTOS (based on the MOTU mini comics and a custom by snakeeyes0217):

and this third one IS controversial: a fan-created character by Toyguru of Mattel. His MOTUC figure got some praise but a lot of hatred, as well. I made him as a vintage custom.

THE MIGHTY SPECTOR (based on Toyguru's character design):

CreeMation presents The Mighty Spector in TIME TRAVEL TO RESCUE!

"Release King Randor immediately, for I am The Mighty Spector!"

"Ouch....Vortex Suit, not protecting....sharp...carrot...."

"Spector, my royal Time Agent! Save yourself! Use your Cosmic Key Wrist Controller to time-travel out of here! Go find He-Man!"

**Tyke** · September 3, 2012, 07:24pm

Thousands of years ago....

"Be prepared, Megator, to meet your doom! My vacuum has been replaced with the Chalybeous hammer!"

"Uhhh...hey guys....do you know where I can find He-Man?"

In an alternate dimension....

"Wundar, I give you this loaf of bread. It will become the invincible Bread-Basher to carry you through rough terrain."

**Tyke** · September 3, 2012, 07:34pm

Thousands of years ago (again), Vikor and Ton-Draugh confront Demo-Man and Red Beast in front of the Preternian Snake Mountain....

"Ok, I am having a tough time here: PLEASE tell me where I can find He-Man! King Randor is being held prisoner by ol' skullface and his minions! Time is of the essence! I am the Mighty Spector!"

And so our tale ends...as does the Mighty Spector's...King Randor never made it back to the palace, and those who know the fate of our purple pal are since dust in the wind.

Stellar job as usual! Your Beastos turned out great. Thanks for the nod.

Vintage Spector LOOKS PRETTY COOL! I Love the Bane head on him... the Venom tubes and the Full TJ legs make him look better!

Awesome work as usual my friend! And poor Spector doesn't have any luck!

Whoaaa, this had me waking up with a huge smile on my face this morning! Apart from the fact that these customs are really cool, that slideshow really had me laughing out loud! Awesome job

P.S. I actually feel The (not so) Mighty Spector is amazingly cool as a vintage figure...

**Charlie Brown** · September 4, 2012, 03:46am

totally love the goofy spector slideshow!

...oh, well, congrats for all the amazing customs, of course.

**motumulder** · September 4, 2012, 12:25pm

Great slideshow Tyke. Was sniffling all the way but the bit with the Swedish Chef was just too funny and I think I scared my neighbours with my laughing out loud.

But back to order, great customs and especialy Mighty Spectors crazy cool custom gun rocks!

**iron_pride** · September 4, 2012, 05:41pm

YUP!

and thanks, Definitions! I am thinking of doing a sequel with Preternian-Disguise He-Man finding the bones of Spector and in the remains finding the time-travel mumbo-jumbo junk....I will definitely have him visit the Swedish Chef! lol

**eternian phoenix** · September 7, 2012, 06:04pm

**hadley** · September 9, 2012, 09:51pm

THANKS, hadley! I never had a chance to thank YOU

**bizzysim3** · May 4, 2013, 12:26am

what is the name of those little cavemen figures you have? I used to have them but I never knew where they came from.

**Tyke** · May 4, 2013, 01:14am

"OTHER WORLD" bendable figures by ARCO in the 1980s
