Warbow of Crystar (Misc) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:71850
Name:Warbow of Crystar
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Misc
Creator:customapprentice  
Date Added:March 29, 2015
Base Figure:ML Radioactive man
Height:6.00 inches
Hello friends! Anybody remember the Crystar figures from '82/'83? I had a few of them when I was a kid and I loved them all but my favorite was Warbow. So when I came across the ML Radioactive man figure I saw the opportunity to try an updated version of the character. While this is a pretty simple custom, I think it works considering the original Warbow figure was practically nude! So I started by removing the paint from his chest with acetone, then I lightly sanded it with a very fine sandpaper and alcohol. The crossbow was completely cobbled together from random fodder as was the eye-patch. All the arrows are sandwich sticks. The quiver is just a strip of leather, painted. I really like how this guy turned out so I'll be doing some more Crystar stuff soon. What do you guys think? Please feel free to comment! Thanks so much for viewing the custom! Have a great day bro's!

Is this the same character as the one that appeared in the recent Marvel Weirdworld comics? he's even fighting Lava-Men (like your other custom)

COOL! I was just thinking that Radioactive Man would make a cool Warbow. Then I started thinking about who would make a good Crystar? Wasn't the original Warbows lower half preposed to ride his dragon? Cool custom nonetheless!

Thanks 94, most kind! The preposed warbow you mentioned was the one that came with the dragon toy itself. If you bought the figure alone, the legs were straight. Thank you again for the comments!

Great work man. Your choice of figure was great and the execution was perfect.
The first figure I submited on here was a Crystar. I am very excited to see the other guys. Best of luck.
