Sure. Skeleton Forces by Joy Toy. I bought it off Amazon but try their store or ebay. joytoyfigure.com/shop/joytoy-action-figure-hardcore-coldplay-skeleton-force-grim-reapers-vengeance-c/?Google%20Shopping&GMC&
I bought the Joytoy Russian Soldiers pack, so I could use them as an Oktober Guard Special Forces Unit. The figures fit really well with my modern era 3 3/4" Joes, and look nice geared up in various looks. I can remove gear and add accessories to make them function as pilots or drivers, or swap gear & guns to become mission back-up if Col. Brekhov needs to split the team up for separate missions... LOTS of potential.
I've loved 40k since I was a teenager especially space marines with their huge shoulder pads. I even read the novels. But the Joy Toy version is just too expensive for me. It also doesn't really fit in my collection so for those reasons I'm not getting them. But if I had unlimited funds, space and time I'd be sure to pick them up. They look beautiful.
LOL it's very possible. I got his legs backwards the first time as well. It's hard to tell. I'll go back and take a look. Thanks for the observation and for watching the video.
Yeah I guess one could paint it that way. I'll have to take another look. I haven't planned to paint these guys so haven't really looked at all the bits. I like how unpainted they feel like prototypes or something. Thanks for watching!
Joytoy makes some great figures, but as you said, they're a bit pricey. I can't help but compare them to both Marauders and Bossfight Studios Vitruvian Hacks figures, but as far as I'm concerned, all three companies have their merits. I think Marauders are the most affordable and customizable due to accessories (I find that the "pick your own" mentality when it comes to the add ons is great for the price), while I think Hacks are great for part swapping, but they haven't gone into the military themed figures. Joytoy seems to be in the middle, but I wish they'd keep releasing figures that have come out before, and bring down the price a bit.
I think that's a great summary. I've had fun making custom figs with Marauders pieces. I don't have any of the HACKS figures though. But I have had a HACKS horse and saddle in one of my carts for a while. With Joy Toy I've heard that their main market is asia so maybe the collecting and pricing is more geared for that region and they don't have the history of blister packaging and lower cost but lower detail figs like we've had here. I do also have an acid rain mech but it's 1:25 scale I think and a more "stylized" look than joy toy. It'll be interesting to see where these lines go. Thanks for watching.
@@ActionRobotPunch Hey, I was wondering; where do you purchase your Joy Toy figures? I've found they seem to have their own page, but the fact that they also sell Lego there makes me wonder if this is another company just using the name. I've personally bought a few Joy Toy from both Amazon and BBTS. Know of any better places to buy?
looking at this, we can say that we are pretty much at the pinnacle of fig construction. and this scale is quite the ideal considering vehicles and storage space. I bought 6' gi joes and marvel legends, and while they look a little better, I find that the difference is not worth it. they don t have more articulation, the addition of gear limit the articulation. vehicles are next to non existent because of the price, and the figs themselves are too expensive to army build. they take a lot of space to display, playsets would have to be huge to scale. my main fun is to be able to mix them, like punisher vs cobra. but it could be possible just the same in 4', except I d have vehicles. once you experimented the joe line with vehicles, it s impossible to go back, I miss them a lot, as the little action packs and playsets. most people just put the 6' on shelves, as decorative statues. the coolest I ve seen are dioramas, but few have armies fight scenes. at $25 + a pop, who can blame them, you reach $100 in no time. acid rain came up with a green army kit concept, pretty much like the classic green army static figs we had as kids, except that they are articulated, but even unpainted, they re quite expensive. Hasbro should take that concept and sell them cheaper. I find that they re too stuck with the collectable mindset business model, they should do them as toys, fewer models, and permanent shelve life. something somebody could army build as soldier toys like the old days. I could not go back to static lead soldiers myself. good show!
Yeah, playing with the joy toy figs I'm really feeling like I should just sell my classified Joes. They're around the same price but my Classified are just statues really. I admire people 3d printing vehicles for the 6" scale but it's too much for me. Thanks for the comments.
@@ActionRobotPunch yeah, well the joy toy figs lack appeal to me in appearance, I m more fond of the cartoony coloured joes. and, they re quite expensive, they should cut on the packages and drop the price, also, they really have this dark feel about them, it somehow makes me depress looking at them. lol. yeah, some people are really skilled with 3d printing, and willing to go trough a lot of trouble. I don t have any experience doing that, and it s expensive. if I was getting in this venture, I d do my own toys, it would probably look like the articulated green army men with scaled vehicles. tanks, jeeps, transports, helicos, and small boats. a good base to have fun. hey, thanks!
Trust me folks, don't buy the joytoy mechs that transform into bikes. They are super brittle and both the mech and bike are nowhere near as cool as they look in pics.
Another excellent video and figure build.
Thanks again!
can we get more info on the skeleton guy?

Yeah they’re great looking figures. Thanks for watching.
Hi guys.....
Can you buy 2 or 3 figures and remove legs from 1 figure....and put them on another figure, to make one good looking custom figure?....
Sure but I imagine some might not match up but they all seem to use the same buck and joints.
@@ActionRobotPunch thank you😎👍👍👍
What do you think of the warhamer 40k?

I can’t find these kits anywhere
I bought them on BigBadToy Store but maybe they don't produce them anymore? Thanks for watching.
I’ve taken to using a Keurig without a coffee pod. Instant hot water from a machine that runs about $10 at a thrift store.
Great tip. Thanks for watching.
i'm sorry but i think you put those forearms on other side🤔
LOL it's very possible. I got his legs backwards the first time as well. It's hard to tell. I'll go back and take a look. Thanks for the observation and for watching the video.
👍Thank you
Thank you too!
8:57. I think that is supposed to be an extension of the glove. You said so yourself. The figure is unpainted.

talk about peaceful😂
Trust me folks, don't buy the joytoy mechs that transform into bikes. They are super brittle and both the mech and bike are nowhere near as cool as they look in pics.
That's too bad. Those ones don't have a cockpit right? Hopefully they'll work out any bugs in future releases. Thanks for the info.
@@ActionRobotPunch yep, no cockpit on those, they turn into bikes the figures can be posed riding. I'm getting a cockpit one next.
