I’m a huge horror fan, and I owe it all to Rich Koz, aka, Svengoolie! I saw my very first horror movie on his show back in 1984, and I’ve been a fan of both him and the genre since. Last Friday we had him at the comic shop my brother runs, Aw Yeah Comics in downtown Skokie, just outside Chicago, for a signing of his new comic Svengoolie: Lost in Time. As a toy designer I wanted to make him something that was unique and meant as much to me as he did. So, I hand sculpted, painted, and carded this Svengoolie figure! I wanted to go with a big nostalgia kick, and went with his original Son of Sven ..read more

My Ultimate Skelegod custom figure in celebration of the new Masters of the Universe Revelation show on Netflix by Kevin Smith. The MOTU Classics body design will always be the best, so I built this guy on a Classics Skeletor buck. He features a full repaint with sculpted chest design and arm and leg bands, 2 energy effects, 3 sets of interchangeable hands, and an alternate head with an open jaw similar to the box art for the Mattel figure. His full tutorial will be on my Patreon this week. Enjoy!

Powers of Hawk, Wolf, Puma and Bear!
This here Marshall Bravestarr 6″ custom figure commission was a pleasure and a welcome challenge to make for an inspirational artist for me, Jesse DeStasio of Toy Pizza. He is modeled after Bravestarr’s Filmation cartoon appearance from the 80’s, as opposed to the Mattel toy that didn’t really resemble the cartoon design. Lots of sculpting and LOTS of painting. I love the color theory behind this guy. Such a great character and project.

When Danielle Gelehrter, the writer of the Masters of the Universe Classics bios for Mattel and Super7, contacted me to make a couple MOTU figures for her I was ecstatic! Such a great project.
Wiki Grayskull:
Minox appeared in the story “”Il Labirinto di Minox (The Maze Of Minox)”.in an issue of the 1987 Italian ‘Magic Boy’ comics magazine, where he battled He-Man within his labyrinth. The robotic minotaur identified himself as a “creation of Skeletor” and could shoot lightning bolts from his metal horns. Minox was defeated by He-Man when the hero doused him with water, shorting out the creat ..read more

I usually don’t make multiples of my custom figure, but when Danielle Gelehrter, the writer of the Masters of the Universe Classics bios for Mattel and Super7, contacted me to make a couple of her favorite characters I couldn’t say no! Such a great project.
Wiki Grayskull:
Lady Slither is a vicious leader of the Snake Men, filling a similar role to the one held by King Hiss. She seemed to have attacked Eternia during He-Man’s time on Primus, but was later sent by the Unnamed One to form a villainous Revenge Squad which laid siege to Trolla in an attempt to take the Trollan Temple of Power.

A great project for a client that had seen some wall graffiti of Voltron where each lion represented one of the 5 Chicago sports teams. I repainted and detailed the torso to represent the Chicago Bears, the right arm as the Bulls, left arm is the Sox, right leg is the Cubs, and left leg is the Blackhawks.

From left to right are The FBI Agent, The Citizen, The Angel, The Detective, and The Profiler. They are all 6″ Marvel Legends bases, and feature sculpted details and real cloth parts. All were given my trademark ACTD custom paint job. All of their behind the scenes tutorials can be found on my Patreon at http://www.patreon.com/actoydesign
