Ok so I used to be a pretty well known GI Joe customizer a few years ago and had a TON of spare parts before I retired from Joes. Anyways I managed to find a 4 inch Rita Repulsa at anantiques store for about $3 or so and decided to have fun with it. Added swivel wrists and new head. Also fixed up that super crappy wand of hers and gave her an extra collar piece. BIG IMPROVEMENT in my book!!! As for Goldar I got a junker that was missing the wings and sword. Man what a turd figure that was with practically no articulation except the feet. Well I got to working pretty hard on him and managed to add swivels for his elbows and full bending joints from an old Joe figure (pretty easy actually), added a new ball joint for the head for better range of motion and he now has knees as well as outward and back and forth joints for the hips which I had to resculpt. A LOT of work went into him. Added the wings and sword from the old original Goldar to complete his look. He's a tad back heavy now so I may create afigure stand for him for better support. The last figure was an original creation made from a Samurai Ranger and a few parts from my fodder bin. Haven't thought of a name for him yet. These were super fun to make and I may decide to sell or trade them later for the original articulated 2010 Rangers or Lord Zedd.
