The inspiration for Mister Zero came from a few different places, but I primarily attribute it to his appearance in the Robin: Year One mini-series. Well, that and having an extra DC Direct Sinestro figure lying about.
Cut vinyl strips form the backpack and belt, while the dome came from a 25-cent vending machine toy. The air tank on the back is actually a painted ‘candy lipstick’ from KB Toys, oddly enough. Kneadatite forms the gloves and the Freeze gun was made from assorted spare accessories.
I do owe a HUGE thanks to Paul (PJ) for getting me the Konnan head used for Mr. Zero. I was searching all over for them, and Paul actually hand delivered the figures to my door. Can’t thank him enough!
