Fake Nemesis Stikfas Custom

I had a buddy on the October Toys forum offer to make me a custom Stikfas. It was a little out of the blue, so it took me a while to think of something that I'd want (and he also stipulated that it had to be something he hadnt done before). Eventually, I decided to go for the gold, and sent him some shots of a Fake Nemesis. This came in the mail today:



I gotta say, I'm pretty blown away.

I've always liked Stikfas; it's a pity you don't see them around much any more. Too challenging to put together, I'd guess. They always gave me trouble, anyway, especially separating them from the sprue without getting little nubs you have to file off, which then leaves a blemish on the plastic.

I never bothered; mine all still have their sprue tags. I was never much of a model builder as a kid, either.

Some years ago, a friend of mine who Doesn't Like Guns, but does like Stikfas, gave me all the guns that came with a batch of them. I had an entertainment center that had kind of a mantelpiece at the time, on which, like any grown man, I displayed toys, so one day I set one of my Army Stikfas up in imitation of those "military airplane with all the ordnance laid out on the tarmac in front of it" photos.

You should be. That's pretty freakin' awesome, and I'm very jealous.

Pass along my compliments to your buddy on his work.

Nice layout, Photon.

I actually once wrote the Stikfas guys about wether I could purchase one of the gun sprues, having a half dozen or so other Stikfas, I wasnt very interested in getting another body, but could use the weapons- the answer was no- I couldn't buy extra sprues... they sent me like 3 for free!

I still need to pick up the dome walker one of these days...
