More boys

Two more JP raptor figures I've acquired for customizing, along with the jawless TLW raptor. And these guys are definitely in need of some TLC.

Pretty much every extremity has been chewed off - I assume by a dog and not a kid, although who knows, maybe it was a collaborative effort.

The figures are also from Kenner's TLW toyline; another tigerstripe raptor, and the "cyclops" one, so named because of one solid-white and probably blind eye (on the other side and not pictured here). I have quite a few of the tigerstripe's sculpt already, and had one as a kid, but not a single cyclops before. Well, whatever they're missing in addition to that eye, I'll do my best to replace.

The tigerstripe has one unmarred hand, and on his feet is only missing one toe in each, but his head is pretty much a lost cause. Which is a shame, as this one is actually one of the rarer variations of this figure, with green eyes instead of yellow. For what it's worth, the action feature still mostly works.

The cyclops has one whole finger left and on his feet only the sickle claws, but since his action feature is on the tail and neck, that still works just fine. He still has some of his head, but not sure how much of it I'll keep. Although a feature and not a flaw, the cyclops also has some "dino damage" as part of the design, and since I'm customizing these guys already, I'll probably get rid of that as well. He can have some scars, but the deep cuts all the way to the bone don't look terribly survivable, and are a bit much for me.

My plan is to turn these two into my OCs Singer and Beetlebiter, and have them be a set with Serene's figure. Although not the original eyes, the tigerstripe is going to get to keep his rarer eye colour, as Singer also has green eyes. The cyclops is going to go through a full repaint on top of the sculpting, to give him Beetlebiter's Trespasser Tribe B patterns. I think the choice of a figure is still quite fitting, as the scarred raptor pack leader from JP: The Game, known as simply Leader in the AU these characters are part of (and on that note, I've made a figure of her, too), is allegedly inspired by the cyclops raptor figure, and Beetlebiter is Leader's grandson. I'm also happy I happened to get to buy these two figures together, as Singer and Beetlebiter are a couple. Little Ruckus from my earlier raptor figure repaints is their daughter, and Singer and Serene are brothers.

This is going to be a challenge, but it's what I got them for.
