About CustomCon

CustomCon is a fictional toy show showcasing the work of several customizers. You will not find these toys in your local toy store.

 

 



Explore the grittier side of the Marvel Universe with the new MARVEL KNIGHTS toyline.


Daredevil: is a Silver Surfer base, not sure which one, but he was blue. The base was perfect, capturing the range of movement needed for Daredevil. The inspiration for this was Kevin Smith’s run on Daredevil, so this figure was made to emulate Joe Quesada’s style.


Black Widow: Can’t have Daredevil without Natasha Romanov. The base here is complex, an Alpha Flight Vindicator body modified to accept an M vs. C Morrigan head. A collar had to be built up with Sculpey to give her a neck. Her hair took three tries to get right; I finally went with her look from the first mini series. The widow’s bite, the weapon’s bands on her wrists, are web shooters from the Silver Age Spider-man.


The Punisher: This is version 4 or 5 of the Punisher, and the first to feature a new head. The base is a Resident Evil Chris Redfield and the head is a Tony Stark from the Avenger’s box set. The mustache was filed off the head and modified to fit the inner mechanisms in the body. He still has the “turn-and-aim” feature that the figure originally had. The head was the hardest part, to find one that fit the body and looked severe enough. I finally came across the Tony Stark head and figured it matched the appearance of the Punisher in his recent maxi series. All details are Sculpey.
