In this hilarious send-up of Lovecraftian horror and steampunk adventure, President Abraham Lincoln’s top spy is a bodiless head known only as Screw-On Head. When arch-fiend Emperor Zombie steals an artifact that will enable him to threaten all life on Earth, the task of stopping him is assigned to Screw-on Head. Fortunately, Screw-On Head is not alone on this perilous quest. He is aided by his multitalented manservant, Mr. Groin, and by his talking canine cohort, Mr. Dog.

Can this unorthodox trio stop Emperor Zombie in time? Does Screw-On Head have a body awesome enough to stop the horrors that have been unleashed? Where can we get a talking dog? All these questions (O.K., maybe not that last one) are answered by the thrilling tale of The Amazing Screw-On Head!

The Amazing Screw-On head began as Marvel Select Doctor Doom and a Marvel Legends First Appearance Iron Man figures. The Iron Man was used for the torso while the Doctor Doom parts worked for the arms and legs. Magic Sculpt was used to create all the surface details in addition to the headsculpt itself.

I can’t tell you how much fun I had working on both the custom and the “how-to” article for ToyFare. It was a blast, and one of my all-time favorite projects. To see the full article, be sure to pick up ToyFare #119, on sale now!
