Got tired of waiting on Hasbro for this one. Cape is modified from the Hood. Body is HOX Xavier. Hands are from Morbius.
Big shout out to RDJ Customs for the amazing head sculpt. You can find his other incredible work on Instagram.

Rumor. Key word there. And bringing in what DC or whoever may be doing/not doing is not relevant to the topic. We're talking about Marvel and Hasbro.
Really awesome great custom

See message above. I forgot to quote you there.
My understanding is that only Warner brothers has a no guns policy in their action figures and that policy is not new and has been on the books for awhile.

Until Hasbro specifically says they wont do it, then its on the table. Look no further than the Surtur thats available at stores like Target and others: for years on forums like this, collectors were convinced "devil" or "satan" like figures wouldn't be made, cause they "couldn't" go to retail stores. But Hasbro never ever said anything like this.
Well nothing says "devil" like a big fiery horned demon; if that's ok ( and why wouldnt it be) then the name "mephisto" wont matter. Surtur should have put to bed, once and for all, this notion. Just because they haven't produced a particular figure yet doesn't mean its somehow forbidden.
You might be right, but just look at all the backfire that crayola got for using three languages in their colors, depends on how Hasbro takes that...
Yeh I don't understand why he couldn't be made either.. He is a a made up character, based off of a made-up character in folklore.
Also, nice work!

Amazing work!! I love it!
