Outsiders Figures

These figures come from a somewhat obscure comic called "The Outsiders". What possessed DC to commission these as opposed to say, a set of villains or a second JLA set, I'll never know.
None of these are characters I'll be including in the set as they are now. Heavy modification on each. This set was painted poorly when I got it and will require a lot of work to get it ready to use.
This is Shakedown. He'll make a good Solomon Grundy or Blockbuster, DC Villain Rook.


















This is Windfall. I think she'll work as Batgirl or the Huntress. DC Hero Pawn.


















Cold Snap. Never heard of him, but he'll work very well as Captain Cold from the Flash's rogue gallery. Just needs a fancy freeze gun and he's good to go. DC Villain Knight.


















Here we have Heatstroke. With minor changes, she makes a good Supergirl. DC Heroes Pawn.


















This is Metamorpho. He's a pretty obscure DC hero, but he'll work very well when modded to make Clayface for a DC Villains Rook.


















Here we have New Wave. With a lot of work, she'll be Harlequin, DC Villains Pawn.


















These next two are Halo and Looker respecively. One or the other will be modded to make Wonder Woman, DC Heroes Queen.



















That pretty much shows you all the DC figures I'm using. I have several that I haven't pictured since I have no plans for them yet. As things get clearer on the "who becomes what" front, I'll publish the pics so you can see the progress.
Cheers.
