I am posting this as a W.I.P. in hopes that it will keep me on my toes and make me finish it. I have too many unshown WIPS that are just collecting dust. So keep me working guys.
Ever since Hawkeye posted that he got the prototypes for the power suits I have wanted to make one or 20 into power armors. I am going with turret head look for two reasons, I like symmetry, and why does power armor need a head?
The body and legs were quite easy to take apart. They are mostly screws and light gluing. The arms are entirely plastic welded so I haven't gotten them apart yet. I am priming them in krylon flat black.

I need to built the turret mount, but this is how the main gun will sit.

I want to keep the mods simple so I can complete this quickly. I don't want this to become another project in the bottom of the box. I want him to have a pack of some sort on his back. Any ideas?

You know, it's funny. This was one of the things I wanted most from the Avengers line, but they're the only things from the range not to be released in the U.K.
I need to get my hands on one.

The shipping wouldn't be cheap, but if you want one I can see how much it will cost and you can paypal me.

The armors are 20 bucks. I would need to box one up to get a shipping quote.

I got a little paint on him today. I don't see me adding much more color. Maybe a little heavier silver on the pistons, but other than that I like him fairly dark.

other than some minor physical mods to the interior for more head room and the turret this is stock my man. You could do one if you got your hands on it.
