Told @maxeeesai.bsky.social I'd post these months ago, finally found the hard drive the pics were on. How many I can get up before dinner? Try and get the rest up tomorrow.

Few years ago I did a bunch of Remco American Defense designs with Modern Era Joe parts, enjoy! Recipes etc in alt text.
A custom figure of the Remco American Defense character Slugger. He wears a striped sleeveless shirt with blue stripes and "SLugger" printed across the front. He has green pants, with green camoflage, bare arms, white batting gloves, black boots, and a military cap also in green with green camo. He wears sunglasses and has a submachine gun and baseball bat. All modern Joe parts I think. Jungle Duke arms, RoC Trenchcoat Snake Eyes torso, and Shock Viper legs with some kneepads from a Chap Mei figure maybe? A custom figure of The Claw from Remco's American Defense. He's a silver robot with large, three fingered claws instead of hands. He has black detail on his lower legs and a black control box on his chest and red and blue stripes on his arms. Head is a Captain America Dark Threat Hydra with added bits, Iron Man torso and waist, Joe Accelerator Suit upper arms, I think the lower arms are Star Wars and the claws are from a thrifted Beast Machines Jetstorm. Upper legs are 25th Serpentor, and I think the lowers are Iron Man 2 Comic Whiplash? A custom figure of the Remco American Defense character Underground. And if you're anything like me, you now have The Jam stuck in your head. He's a man in a white tank top and black pants with silver armor. His lower right arm is robotic, and he has white spiky hair and an eyepatch on his right eye. Head is Dragonball Evolution Goku, torso is X-Men Origins Wolverine Logan, Jungle Duke arms, right lower arm is Star Wars as is the claw, legs are RoC Duke with 25th Roadblock feet. La la la, la la la . . for tomorrow . . . A custom figure of the character Fake Out from the Remco American Defense S.I.T. toyline. He wears a brown t-shirt with "SPY" printed across the front and green baggy combat pants with black boots. He has brown hair and a mustache, and wears sunglasses and a brown ballcap. Head is RoC Hawk with 25th Wild Bill glasses and probably a McFarlane Playmakers hat? Torso is RoC Hawk, legs are PoC STeel Brigade Delta I think, if only because they're mostly unpainted.

happy new year, y’all… here’s to the bigots, tech bros, plutocrats, and religious nut-jobs who fashioned 2025 into a dystopian hellscape dying painfully in the next year so the rest of us can live in peace and harmony while pissing on their graves

A look back at the 1988 Windmill:

Definitely a contender for worst figure in the line's history.

My Instagram Top 9 for 2025. About the same interactions as last year. But, about 1/2 of what I saw in 2023.

It's amazing to me how enshittified IG has become. It was the best Joe community online for a couple of years. Now, it's another void.
