Tornado Man, Sniper Joe Custom Figures

Though Wonder Festival is long over, sculptors are already hard at work prepping for the next garage kit convention, as evident below. Here's a sneak peek at forthcoming homemade Tornado Man and Sniper Joe figures scheduled to appear at this Spring's Wonder Festival...

Oh so awesome. How often do we see a Sniper Joe figure? Let alone Tornado Man?!

Joe is said to be 12cm in scale, and when colored, will resemble the Mega Man 7 variation. Accessories like his trademark shield and swappable red/green mono eye are said to be included with the kit. Tornado Man on the other hand has no accessories for the time being.

I'll be sure to post up the fully painted models once the sculptor makes them available. Nevertheless, these are looking mighty fine for work-in-progress stages!

  1. Jazwares would be wise to hire those men. Just saying.:P Keep the retro rotos, they're awesome. But these sculptors definitely know joints better than Jazwares, lol.

  3. Why can't we get figures like this mass produced?

    I swear MM fans get no love. I would be willing to pay $40 a piece for articulated MM figures like that.

  4. 1/144th scale? What is he, a Zaku? I think you mean that he's about 12 CM tall. Very cool, nevertheless.
