Another Superman

Posted by Dad's Army on 25 Jul 2020, 12:31

Years ago I did made a superman in 20mm:

But now my eyes get worse I made a new one of the Asterix figures....

He now joins the other superheroes:

The making off you can see on my BLOG
It is always fun to make a figure of one of my many double Asterix figures.
And since the Romain solders are hard to find, I must think of another conversion now...

This figure is ... super! I especially like the last pic with all three figures; that Hulk is incredible!

The first Superman used to be an Atlantic WWII Afrika Korps soldier. I did some conversions with figures from that set years back after first joining the forum.

Fun conversions. And, as always, the blog is well worth the visit.

Hmm ...

Now is the daily battle in Dad`s Army modelling room:

20mm: " I am Superman" ! :mad:
Asterix figure: No I am " !
20 mm: " No, you are a fake "!
Asterix figure: " No, you" !
20mm: "I was the fist" !
Arfix figure: "Come here I am the bigger one"!

WUSH, WHAM, BANG, BOOM ...

Every time Dad`s Army leave the room.

:lol:

Thanks all for the nice comments.

I don't think so, her pose is wrong to make something out of her :(
These figures are not made for conversions, but when I got a new idea I am sure I will start again :-D

I already know and admire your dedication to Asterix figures, Dad’s Army, but the use you're making of this particular figure seems to have no limits. How many more superheroes can still get out of it? :drool:

Congratulations for such an incredible imagination and such a fantastic figure. :thumbup:

What a pity that Photobucket ruined your pictures in that topic (and so many others!). :(

It is very strange, I can still see them. Maybe because I was the one who placed them there?

Anyway we need more Remco superheroes. Who's next?
