Title says it all. Post your single favourite ever custom (doesn't have to be the best, just your favourite) that you have made yourself.
No ties/ honourable mentions, just your single favourite and reason why.

Here's mine - Code Name: Red Maniac Personal Name: Kain, Marc Action Force Code Number: None Primary Military Speciality: N/A Secondary Military Speciality: N/A Birthplace: London, England The only member of the Red Shadows to volunteer for Baron Ironblood's super soldier program, and ironically, the only survivour. A culmination of Terminator, Red Laser and Red Mercury's latest innovations, Kain was subjected to complete body prosthesis, mercury blood transfusion, adamantium bone enhancements, and positronic brain upgrades. He is now a walking arsenal, equiped with a vulcan cannon/ blade arm attachment, crushing claw, bionic legs and eye laser. However, the super soldier program caused Kain to descend into madness, his only speech now comes in the form of quotes from William Shakespeare. Unpredictable, irrepressible and highly dangerous, Red Maniac is as much a threat to the Red Shadows as he is to Action Force. "We are lucky the super soldier program was not 100% successful. It it had been, Baron Ironblood would now rule the world." I've always been a fan of asymetrical massive armed cyborgs. This guy started out as Mean Machine Angel from Judge Dread but just kept evolving. I merged the idea with Trap Jaw (another of my all time favourite toy characters), the Red Shadows, and lastly, myself. It was one of those customs that just came together perfectly, and more importantly, it was made mostly from fodder. The 200x Trap Jaw arm fitted the SE body really well, I just had to dremel out the shoulder a bit. As all the joints were colour matched already, the whole figure is 100% playable and poses really well. I added the clear beads that Kambei sent me to add a bit of tech bling. I had the bio pretty much sorted out in my mind before I made the figure, and the bio spilled forth and evolved into the Enforcer of Blood comp. I don't think I'll ever make a figure I'll like as much as this one again, it's a combination of every single aspect of things I like most in figures.
