G1 Style Spike Witwicky

Here's something I've been working on. It's a G1 style Spike Witwicky figure based on the G1 animated Spike using 3 different Indy 4 figures (Mutt, Indy & a Russian Soldier).

The hip joints were reworked so the parts from the different figures would mesh better. The boot tops were modified to better resemble Spike's rubber work boots. The pants, belt and boots were repainted to more closely resemble G1 Spike's clothes. Some detail painting was done to Spike's eyes and hair. Nothing major.

Many more pics to come, including Spike with 8 different accessories and a custom G1 style bubble card with Tech Specs.

Thanks for taking a look!

I'm not a fan of the movie franchise. But this is a nice fusion I dig.

I have a few of those figures. They're OK, but not as nice as the Hasbro GI Joe, Star Wars and Indy figs. Might make a Sparkplug with them. The hardhats are not removable though. So I made one that is for this figure.

I thought about sculpting the hair to more closely resemble G1 animated Spike's, but decided the removable hardhat based on the existing hair was the better choice.

I guess I could still try to add the bangs. Maybe...

Oh man! That is awesome! Spike! All you need is the hard hat and maybe a mini soundwave.
