Recipe:
I’ve always liked the way some customizers are able to take 3 or 4 disparate figures, and combine them to come up with a totally new character. I thought I’d try this myself. I took 3 Playmates’ Star Trek figures, and created…..another Star Trek figure. At least it’s a start.

The Lt. Munro figure was created from:

1) the body and head of Riker in First Contact uniform figure which was a Target store exclusive awhile back;
2) the arms of a Cadet LaForge figure;
3) the legs of a Cadet Data figure.

I dremeled off Riker’s beard, and shaped the face to give it the angular, CGI-likeness of Lt. Munro in the game, but it ended up looking more like a very young Ronald Reagan. The figure isn’t 100% accurate with the uniforms of the characters in the game, but the approximation is fairly close.

The mangled, armless and legless Borg drone was customized by my dog Edgar, from a Playmates figure that was inadvertently left within his reach.

The Elite Force game series are all pretty much fun, especially if you like first person, bug-blastin’shooter games. I recommend them.
