Hines Ward of the Gotham Rogues - Custom McFarlane figure inspired by The Dark Knight Rises

 
Inspired by the latest trailer for The Dark Knight Rises comes this custom Hines Ward figure. Meticulous detail has been be given to this figure. I scoured dozens of photos of set pictures to accurately portray Hines Ward in his Gotham Rogues uniform.


If you haven't seen the trailer yet, enemy Bane, seems to detonate a bomb in the football stadium as Hines Ward returns a kick off. This custom McFarlane figure depicts the moment from the trailer when Hines Ward turns around and witnesses the carnage. This is one of the few figures that I've made sans request.

James Harrison Slams Browns Fan - custom McFarlane sportspick figure

It was Christmas Eve, 2005. Nathan Mallet sat about 20 rows up at midfield behind the Browns' bench as the Steelers pounded the Browns, 41-0, at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Worse, there were lots of Pittsburgh fans in his section.

"I had a little too much to drink,'' he said, "and one thing kind of led to another.''

Mallett somehow avoided security, dashed on to the field and bounced up and down, arms raised, as if he'd just scored a touchdown.

In mid-celebration, Harrison grabbed the 6-0, 200-pound Mallett from behind and body-slammed him to the turf like he was wrasslin' a steer.

This custom was just way to interesting to pass up. I love getting a good challenge and "moment in time" customs are my absolute favorite to work on.

Tim Tebow "Tebowing" - custom McFarlane sportspick figure

When the Tebow fever was at its highest, you saw TONS of "Tebowing" customs on eBay. 99% of them were poor repaints of the Brady kneeling pose with an arm swap. They were quick cash-ins at best.

I was very excited when I finally got a commission to do a custom Tim Tebow in his "Tebowing" pose. I took careful consideration when picking out each part for this figure to capture the pose and his likeness.
