TYGRA on TOYFARE #128

Hello folks.
If you grab a copy of TOYFARE issue #128 this month of February, you might wanna see one of my customs being featured in the HOMEMADE HEROES article.

Thanks to Mr. Adam Tracey (editor in chief) for picking my custom Thundercats TYGRA as one of the homemade heroes in Toyfare magazine.

THANKS!

I am not that big a fan on the legs, however the upper body and head look great.

Thanks for the :slythe: pics!

Congrats!

On an unrelated note, I didn’t know you’re Filipino!! :yikes: Glad to know that another pinoy enjoys ThunderCats as much as I do!

Rateeg you should really enter our customs contest http://www.thundercatslair.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2594 right now we are pretty low on participants so we could use another one. We are giving away some cool prizes and if the turnout is good in the next few weeks we may even make giveaways better than what they are

That’s awesome! Congratulations, holmes! They deserve that kind of exposure, they’re really good.

Are you talking about the base figures? I think that’s just the price you pay for articulation nowadays.

No no, I just meant that I love the way the upper half of the custom came out. In the pics though the legs look a bit “toothpicky” yet very muscular, but it could just be the pics. Please don’t get me wrong, those are great looking customs, lord knows I couldn’t make those. :slight_smile:

On another note; I thought Rateeg was just posting pics, I hadn’t realized until now that those are his customs. Congrats on getting into ToyFare dude!http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y86/BlackieLawless/thumb.gif

I have Issue #128 of ToyFare right in front of me as I’m typing this. And, yes, there’s rateeg’s custom Tygra figure on Page 7, under “Homemade Hero”. Congratulations and a standing ovation to you, rateeg. Like the magazine says, your Tygra figure really is “Grrrreat”. And judging from your other photos posted here, Panthro and Cheetara definitely agree! :smiley:

Oh, I almost forgot. The very last page of ToyFare #128 is full of comically captioned ThunderCats pictures. I’ve seen them and I kind of question the humor they used; I have no idea what they were driving at. But look at the captions and judge for yourselves. :?

Very cool, but hey rateeg when are the other customs coming, I think you mentioned doing a Lion-O right?

Agin, Rateeg…beeeeeyoootiful custom! Tygra looks hotter than usual!

As far as the last page of ToyFare goes, I think they were capitalizing on the humor of those cat macros like the website “I can haz cheeseburger?. com” or its something like that.

I thought they were funny but toilet humor is my guilty pleasure. The more sick the better.

looks great man !!! Did they send you any free swag ?

Or perhaps…“Looks great gal” :wink:

LOL sorry didnt mean to do that one. Ive been hitting mostly transformer boards lately and there are very few women on those =) Sorry but really great work i like the panthro even more.

Can someone post the last page of ToyFare #128 ? I wanna see the captioned comic thing :slight_smile:
