AGENT 626 - CODENAME: COBRA


An homage to the B Movie Spy Genre of the the 70's.

Yes, the name is corny... it's supposed to be.



Agent 626 - Codename: Cobra is a custom modified Jakk's Pacific Charlie's Angels Lucy Liu headsculpt, that I straightenedand trimmed the hair on, and made a mount to put it on a CG 2.0 body. The outfit is Triad Toys' Domina 2.0 Black, with the thigh high boots from the Pole Position outfit. Her holsters are from CG Ice, and I have used micro velcro to make the thigh straps for them. Her sidearms are the new sculpt 21C Blued Desert Eagle handguns from the new "Street Heat I" weapon set. IMHO this is the finest Desert Eagle sculpt I have seen... with fantastic detail, great paint apps, quality of the mold, and the fact it has removable magazines and working hammers.




I really like this custom, whilst not very in depth of a custom... only real work was modifying the head, It is one of my favorites. The ensemble of the the great headsculpt (Whilst not Lucy Liu, it is a great Asian sculpt nonetheless), superb quality of the the Triad outfit, and my love of most things "B" Movie make it so.

AMY CINTRON V 4.0


I recently aquired a custom recast of the DML Amy headsculpt that has been modified to fit on a standard CG / PB neckpost. The headsculpt is of a very high quality, the paint apps are quite nice as well, matching the skintone of the new BBI Hispanic PB very nicely. The reason that this is V 4.0 of Amy is that there was the original release Amy as a United States Army National Guard Soldier, Then re-released as an AAFES Exclusive figure by DML released in a pale skintone, and a darker skintone that could be considered possibly AA, but moreso looks to be Middle Eastern because of her features. This head is perfect for those who like the DML head, but aren't to hot for the DML female body.


I recently touched up a few minor paint issues with the head, such as touching up the hairline a bit, and then drybrushing some color onto her hair for some added depth.
Overall, the headsculpt IMHO is well worth the $17 shipped I paid for it.

Also featured in this are some recast gloves from the CG Ultraman "Annu Yuri" figure... which too are of very high quality and are a nice soft rubber... the wrist posts they come with are also a perfect match for the Hispanic PB.
