Nogueira the Minotaur is one of the competitors of the VFC. For more info on the VFC see my Vincephus custom, but basically its the Forgoten Realms equivalent of the WWE. He is the current champion and is modeled after the Ultimate Warrior, personality and all.

The base body was a Storm Collectables Zangief. The head and feet are from a marvel legends BAF Rintrah. I shaved the boots from the shins, and then cut the mouth off of the bull head and a Zangief head, and but the Zangief mouth on the bull. I set it up with magnets so it could be swapped out for different expressions, but I never got around to making other mouths. I had the most fun painting the Ultimate Warriors face pant. The Girl is Negaunee; a Lamia that is also in the VFC and should soon have her own entry on this site. This guy needs a touch up. some of the paint has been rubbed off.

Thanks. I'm curious, is NSP in reference to Dan Avidan's band, or is it your own thing?

I like your tooling abilties and I am wondering how difficult it was to make those legs fit and make them stable enough to hold all that upper body weight.

Thanks a lot. It was easier than I thought it was going to be. The BAF bull legs were made out of a soft plastic, so cuting them and drilling a hole for the existing foot peg to insert into wasn't that bad. I used some heat moldable plastic to secure it a bit and they hold really well. The existing ankle swivels are pretty strong and can hold some poses, but I was lucky that their natural stopping point was where I wanted them. It still takes a lot of balancing tricks to get him to stand and when he is in the main display I always have him supported by something. He is a big heavy figure and can do a lot of damage if he falls.
