Take a look at these colorful and fun custom "action figures" I assembled around 2005! It's the Monkees, created with an eye toward replicating the kind of product the prolific Mego corporation would have produced around the mid-70s, like their STAR TREK, WALTONS, and "World's Greatest Superheroes" line of toys!

| Above: Davy was made using a STAR TREK "Chekov" (what else?) action figure! Tons of molding clay and added accessories were used to craft the figure, along with lots of sculpting and painting! |

| Molding putty was used to craft Mike's hair, over a 70s STAR TREK "Bones McCoy" head. A custom hat was added, then that head was used as the "master mold" for the final plaster cast noggin! Clothes from the 70s STARSKY & HUTCH Mego line were used for his threads! |

| Peter sports a custom-made psychedelic top, made from some paisley-patterned material! |
