Jitsu

In keeping with my habit of paying homage to original designs while updating at the same time, I used the same base body for Jitsu as Mattel used to make Battle Fist (read: Fisto), which was Ice Armor He-Man.  A regular He-man donated his head to this project; the claw-chopper came from a Mattel Batman Knight Force Ninjas Killer Croc and is attached to the arm permanently.  The skull on the belt buckle is a hot glue cast of Skeletor's mug, the armor is from a 200x MotU Power Punch He-Man (fans of Rurouni Kenshin might recognize the symbol on Jitsu's armor as the same as the on Sanoske's gi, which apparently is the symbol for "bad" or "evil."  The hair and beard were sculpted from Sculpey Flex to have some give to them.  Finally, all the soft parts (arms, legs, head) were given a dye bath in Rit Sun to give him more of an Asian tone to his skin
