Scarlett, on of the leading ladies in the GI Joe comics and cartoons, is given a fresh look by BoskoesToys. Thier Custom Sigma Six Scarlett GI Joe figure combines an anime look to soften up the hard lines of the Sigma Six type of figure. Although a figure was never produced for Scarlett in the original line, BoskoesToys has translated her cartoon version to a figure and did an excellent job! Looking much softer than most of the figures in the Sigma Six line, she retains her cartoon appeal and would be a great addition to your Sigma Six collection. Head over to eBay and check out thier Custom Sigma Six Scarlett GI Joe figure.

Typically I see Custom Golobulus figures made in Marvel Legends scale but WaysCreations decided to beef up the GI Joe 25th Anniversary line and create a the Supreme Leader of the Cobra La in a smaller scale. This Custom Golobulus figure is one of the best I have seen. The massive tail is coiled to keep the figure standing tall and he fused it to the body very seamlessly. Overall, WaysCreation paid a really nice homage to the leader of the Cobra La so head over to eBay if you want to own this Custom 25th Anniversary Golobulus figure!

You have to hand it to Jin for creating a mash up of two of the most popular toy lines in history with his Custom Cobra Rattler GI Joe Transformers Universe crossover figure. Using a great weathering technique, this Rattler is sporting the classic Cobra blue. The decals make this custom unique as the Decepticon Symbol and the Cobra Symbols compliment each other well on each wing. Let’s learn more about this great figure:
“Powerglide has been transformed into the most iconic Cobra aircraft, the Cobra Rattler. He’s decked out in a highly detailed paint job that includes realistic shading, panel wear, flight weathering, metallics, and is sealed to prevent wear. He even sports the Cobra Airforce decals as well as Decepticon emblems. His missiles are removable and he has a rotating center turret that activates his lights and machine gun sounds.”

BoskoesToys has filled a void in the Sigma 6 GI Joe line with their Custom Battle Android Trooper. I was never happy with Hasbro’s version of the Sigma 6 BAT and it is great that BoskoesToys has paid attention to retaining the BAT’s classic look and feel. The black and yellow paint aps are just the start. Let’s get a rundown of what this figure comes with:
-
HYPER DETAIL PRO PAINT APP
-
CLEAR CHEST GEAR WINDOW
-
EXCHANGABLE RIGHT HAND ATTACHMENTS (DRILL, CLAW, GUN, GRAPLING TENTICLE)
-
HOLSTER WITH REMOVABLE PISTOL
-
REMOVABLE SHOULDER PADS
-
BACKPACK HAS BUILT IN SOUND EFFECT (CREEPY BATTLE HOWL) AND LED LIGHT WHICH GIVES A REALLY COOL EFFECT (Batteries are replaceable, and replacement batteries are included)
-
LIGHT UP LED SMART BOMB (CAN BE HELD IN GRAPLING TENTICLE CLAW)
-
DISPLAY BASE (PICTURED)

GI Joe 25th Anniversary

What takes a licking and keeps on ticking? GettingRidOfToys has provided an excellent answer to that age old question with his Custom Battle Damaged Battle Android Tooper(aka BAT) figure. I recently wrote about another one of his Battle Damaged BATs as I really loved the concept so here I am writing about it again! As with customs, every figure is unique and this BAT in particular has some great battle damage effects. For example, this BAT has been to hell and back and the helmet looks like it is shredding off his head! The collateral damage on the shoulder completes the look! Head over to eBay to own one of these unique Custom Battle Damaged Battle Android Tooper figure or check out the other Custom GI Joes!

BAT 25th Anniversary Custom GI Joe
The BAT was one of my favorite figures to play with as a kid and was a central part of my Cobra army. The battle scenes that I would create for my GI Joes would be tremendous and it looks like GettingRidOfToys has created a Custom Battle Damaged BATthat looked exactly like I had imagined an android coming back from a huge war would look like. First off, the concept for this custom is awesome. What BAT comes back from battle unharmed? The paint aps are amazing and he even went so far as to redo the original paint aps and apply a great weathering technique to the figure. The bullet hole blasting out of the back of the BAT’s head adds a really nice effect and I love the shattered face.
