EDIT: Polished up Mr. Roboto and added an updated family photo...

I've been itching to post these for awhile but I had to wait until all the pieces parts came together. Rather than dig through all the threads where I promised to post pictures I figured I'd take the lazy route and create a new one.

First up is Roxy Boxy (think 1920s flapper) The brass button is the creation of darkzero and I can't thank him enough for the opportunity to own it. Absolutely one of my favorite accessories.





This is the button I had originally intended for Roxy. Just a button I ordered on Amazon and glued to one of Rob's sanded Delrin buttons.



Next up is the new improved Sgt. Stryker. Rob's olive drab is ten times better than my attempt. The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor (EGA) came from an estate sale and while it's doubtful it saw action in WW2 it is certainly pre 1950. I absolutely freakin' love this mod!







And finally, Mr. Roboto, my sci-fi themed Reo (sort of...I'm still working on the theme...might paint the button silver.).





And here's the whole family getting along (for once).

Gorgeous.
This brass button cover is beyond words.
It's proof we NEED brass, ss, alu, etc. button covers. (black wrinkle button cover :))


I also like the sfi-fi one a lot. Cyclone looks good. But it needs a SS button cover ;)

Agreed...time to break out the model paint...hmmm...think I'll paint the Delrin too. And maybe polish up the Reo a bit...not mirror finish...just shinierererer.

Wonderful work, Crash! Sgt Stryker really looks like a WWII relic!

And...surprisingly...the bullet drip tip actually vapes pretty good. I was skeptical when I ordered it.

My vaping buddy thinks I should whack it with a hammer a few times to expose some aluminum...make it look like it's been to Iwo and back. I think he's just jealous...
