Hey guys just a very quick and simple roadblock bash
Always loved the character and wished sideshow had completed
Their G I joe line
Once I saw the Luke Cage sideshow offering I knew that was going to be the base for my roadblock
I swear this head was made for the joe line
The way it was sculpted is so reminiscent of their joe line
Anyway luke cage head and body (the body had to be extended as he was surprisingly short ) G I joe hands
Singlet from Dutch and pants and parts just floating in the off casts bit boots deadpool and Thor feet 79B3A629-A637-4BED-A862-449AE4C37322.jpgE2094BE5-3B26-4FA1-B236-77FF54D80940.jpg55E99F72-004F-43A5-8E53-BC5F8831E6F0.jpg
 
Thanks everyone for the feedback.

Very nice! Is that head on the smaller than the Joe heads?
personally I think the entire figure is too small, it certainly not as big or robust as I wanted roadblock ( or Luke cage for that matter )

some of the Joes have rather large heads ( flint , duke ) ,and some seem on the smallish side ( dusty, hawk ) so dependant on who he is standing next to,
his head can be small or "normal"

I will try get some pics
but IMHO yes the head is a tad too small.
 
Very nice job on RB!

This is what I did a few years ago, and I don't think you are too far off other than the sculpt. I built the body using Tony Meis’ concept, but I used a WWE Maximum Agression upper with a KP02 lower. Hands are custom made for gloves, and the head is a modified Power Team head I worked to fit the body.

I sewed the tank top, pants, and holster. I modified a Dragon bayonet, and used Sideshow version 2 Snake Eyes LBE. His pack is made from a clone GI Joe parachute pack mated with a Power Team pack frame. Shoulder straps and waist belt were custom made.

The M2 machinegun and pistol are from dragon, the boots are ACI, and the helmet is Toy City I believe.
