LOL...it's a one of a kind. I don't look to open up a factory any time soon! lol...but Murdoc will be my 6th custom figure, if you count the commission paint job I just finished! I've actually got a corner of my office for this stuff now...

Butbutbut.... I want one!!

Mommmmmmyyyy!

I'm going to hold my breath till I get one!!

..... still waiting....
*taps toes*

Too late.....





(I should become an actress, wasn't I great? )

LOL...the melodrama was perfect. You deserve an Oscar. Or is that an Emmy since it was daytime? lol...yeah I pay a LOT of attention to those things...

I thought the difference was between TV movies and feature movies?

You're not off the hook though.


Still want one!

LOL...maybe I shouldn't post this then....

Here's the figure I started with:


Here's how he ended up:



He's all painted awaiting his gear. Really all I have left to do is dye the coat...but I seem to be all out of black dye...lol. I mentioned the cybernetic arm before...and now you can see what I mean. It just looked too cool to paint black, and it'll be covered by the coat anyway. The skull on the chain is my nod to that skull ring he wore in an episode or two.

Wow. Nice job.

Can't wait to see the final product.

OK guys! Pretty much all done. Someone's actually making me a new coat because the one I've got on him is not black and just won't dye. I soaked it in undiluted black dye all day...and it's still basically the original color. I had another that I painted with black paint with fabric medium...and well...that still didn't hold the color...and it shrunk, so it wouldn't fit anymore! So when i get the black coat I'll let you guys see.

Murdoc could go a lot of different ways with his look, but since Strictly Business is my fave Murdoc ep, I guess I kind of gravitated that way. I couldn't find ANY screencaps to compare, but you guys know it anyway.

Here he is all geared up, without the coat and with. I know Murdoc didn't actually wear a trenchcoat, but it just looked too cool, and it make a great hiding place for all his cool stuff. I took cues from the beginning of SB where he's unloading all his weapons, so he's got a throwing star, a knife in his boot, a silenced pistol and grenades in his coat pockets and he's got a pistol in a chest holster. When the coat arrives I'm going to add a place inside the collar to put another knife. Also gave him a really big gun. It shoots missiles and also I ripped off flame missles from another figure for flamethrower mode...



The big gun pic is at this link with some others because I don't wanna flood this place with too many pics:

Murdoc Album

But I couldn't resist posting this one...

WOW! That's so bad!
(um...which means good, you know )

Of course, that last shot kinda reminds me of The Punisher, but that's cool. A skull around his neck definitely says Murdoc too! Ha ha- and I remember seeing that skull ring somewhere too, so that's a nice reference.

I particularly like the flamethrower.

So you gonna keep making the MacGyver action figure line? I'd love to see a Pete Thornton next!

Thanks MacGyver!
hehe...yeah, the flame thrower is my favorite.

LOL...no no no no...I think I'm done with the MacGyver ones...lol, you can only push, um, reality...lol....so far. I just can't see Pete as one of these guys...Jack might even be pushing it! I've gotten half serious requests on the Joe board for Pete, SAM, Jack, and even Jessie Colton. lol. About the only one I can picture is Jessie, but I don't like him enough to do it. LOL...someone even said about Dexter Filmore...lol, I doubt I can find a letterman's jacket that small....

You're done with the MacGyver ones? Nooooo! We still have Von Leer and Nikki and Penny (okay, forget about Penny) and Jack, yes Jack (I can see him now with a bomber jacket and pilot hat!!) and Harry.... and... and...

I want a MacGyver doll!!!

Btw... there was something I missed with Murdoc, couldn't put my finger on it at first, but now I know: scars!!

LOL...well this was after his face job. After I took the eyepatch off and before I sculpted the new eye it certainly could have passed for pre-face-job-Murdoc!
