Thank you all, super kindly! Cobra Trooper Ninja Force Storm Shadow head 4 pack Cobra Commander body, knight sheath, knife, hands FCBD GI Joe 4 pack Cobra Commander boots, helmet Hawkeye/Sarah Connor webgear (Hawkeyes needs to have the quiver removed, though I toyed with the idea of keeping it, cutting off the arrows, and using it as a rifle/sniper sheath; Sarah's is expensive and needs to be painted AK-47s from Walking Dead, snipers from various figures Cobra Viper Helmet is from various soldiers Cobra Commander head Civil War mercenary vest, chest piece (you can also snag the Civil War guard helmet) Various black t-shirt arms (Hawkeye for the above has these, too) Rifle is from various sci-fi Marvel figures Brock Lumlow legs Endgame Ronin gauntlets Various Walking Dead/assorted riot gear boots Holsters and handguns from various! May put belts onto the troopers, undecided. Pending parts to do BATs, but the bulk of the parts ARE CURRENTLY LOST IN THE MAIL. Edited March 17 by Navaan Adding pics Quote
Navaan Posted June 7 Posted June 7 Crashing through the sky Comes a fearful cry of Cobraaa COOBRAAAAAAA! BATs are on the field! The Battle Android Troopers are Cyclops bodies, Age of X or Carin Wight helmets painted black, scorched Endoskeleton arms painted for the sleeves, and painted holsters. Claw hands are from the robot from Lost In Space! Guns are from clone troopers from Star Wars, modified to feel sci-fi-y BAT handgun-y! Quote

nandoninny Posted June 9 Posted June 9 i used these guys. they used to have an option for custom lego sized ones but for minimates i just got an exacto knife and went to town. you can fill 1 sheet with as much as you want. fair warning though -- it has been YEARS since i used them but i remember loving the results. https://www.stickeryou.com/pagemaker Quote

I may have to look into learning and 'getting good' with the lack of bites I've gotten trying to work with people. Quote
nandoninny Posted June 9 Posted June 9 oh, i just googled the image i wanted and stuck it on a sticker. then resized it. i printed a couple of each in case i messed up the cutting. i'm at work but i'll see if i can find a good image on google for you. Quote
nandoninny Posted June 10 Posted June 10 Try saving the image from this one and resizing it: https://www.teepublic.com/sticker/833753-cobra-bat-battle-android-trooper Quote
Navaan Posted June 10 Posted June 10 Too many watermarks but maybe I can find something somewhere Quote

nandoninny Posted June 10 Posted June 10 as long as i wasn't making this for sale i wouldn't feel bad a custom for myself is all i used it for when i did it with band tshirts for my minimates Quote

thereasonsy Posted Monday at 01:55 PM Posted Monday at 01:55 PM Seeing all of these has made me nostalgic and I hope some day we get to see the concept art and design sheets for the cancelled waves. Did we guess Major Bludd correctly? Who knows. Quote
DSTZach Posted Monday at 03:35 PM Posted Monday at 03:35 PM Series 3 was Flint, Jaye, Stalker and Gung Ho. Series 4 was Firefly, Major Bludd and... Zartan? Scrap Iron? I forget. I wish I had thought to save the designs, maybe Barry can share them. The Skybound designs were also great. Quote
Barry Posted Monday at 04:14 PM Posted Monday at 04:14 PM (edited) Wave 4 was Mindbender, Firefly, Bludd, and Zartan. Skybound Wave 1 was Baroness, Cover Girl, Duke, and Risk Skybound Wave 2 was Chameleon, Cobra Commander, Destro, and Mercer. I'm hoping to share designs soon! Edited Monday at 04:23 PM by Barry Quote
nandoninny Posted Monday at 04:30 PM Posted Monday at 04:30 PM yep......... breaking my heart!! wow. all of that sounds like it would have been incredibly awesome! Quote
Navaan Posted Monday at 06:11 PM Posted Monday at 06:11 PM I hope Minimates continue/restart and we get those or other designs! Quote
