LEGO MOC Justice Society of America

I was thinking about The Spectre today, probably because of the new James Bond movie, and it dawned on me that I probably had (between all the LEGO and bootlego pieces I have lying around) enough bits and bobs to make an honest to goodness Spectre minifigure.

I returned home from work (because those are the thoughts I have when I am bored at work) and busted out my stash...and as it turns out I was right!

I've posted about my MOC Jay Garrick Flash and my Sandman minfigures before. As for Spectre, I pieced him together from a bootlego Green Arrow hood, a bootlego Loki cape, a LEGO ghost torso and arms, random white legs, a LEGO Toy Story army man's green hands, a random LEGO green crotch, and a LEGO Ninjago skull.

I love The Spectre, and can't believe it took me this long to piece a LEGO version together!

Red Hood LEGO Minifigure MOC

About a year ago I made a LEGO minifigure of the pre-Joker version of Red Hood. This past weekend I was shuffling through our LEGO parts and it dawned on me that a red helmet with a red visor might make for a cool looking modern Jason Todd Red Hood. I considered giving him a Robin head behind that visor, but the blank head actually adds to the 'mystery' of the Red Hood. I gave him a hoodie-clad torso from one of the recent blind bag series figures - a skateboarder I think - and some weapons. I couldn't decide if I should go with double hand-guns or heavy artillery so I went with a happy medium - a handgun and a missile launcher.

Red Hood isn't known for his subtlety.

I tried a few different iterations, some bodies with 'armor' ala Arkham Knight, some looking a bit more like the crazy Grant Morrison anti-superhero version, but I kind of like the 'basic' Red Hood I ended up with. There's really not much to him, but he's a fun addition to my LEGO minifigure Bat-Family.
