We've been hard at work building up a full set of the A-Team to donate to a charity silent auction to benefit the MS Society.
My personal favourite is HM Murdock by far, but maybe that's just because I'm a little crazy, just like him!
|
Captain HM Murdock |
|
The best part of Murdock is his jacket!!! |
Of course, BA Baracus turned out pretty great as well. I mean come on- that much glitter paper on a Cube Dude that ISN'T a Vegas Version??? He even has grey wool socks and bright red Chucks.
|
Sgt B.A. Baracus |
|
Check out them feather earrings! |
And who doesn't love the smirk of the world's greatest con man- Faceman! I'll admit, out of context this Cube Dude looks pretty.... generic white guy-ish. But put him beside the other three and that devilish charm starts to shine!
|
Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Peck |
And of course, the leader of the pack with the ever present Cigar... Hanibal Smith! It was a little nerve wracking to light a Cube Dude on fire, but the effect of a burnt cigar is so much better than just a brown curl of paper in his mouth. Plus, the photos turned out great!
|
Col. John Hanibal Smith. That is authentic singe on his cigar! |

The Team |
Did you know that in the original TV series, the van was actually gun metal grey above the stripe, and black below? With the satin finish of the paint job, we were 4 seasons in and hadn't noticed!!! In doing the research to build this beast it was pointed out to us... and necessitated some re-designing.
If you look closely, the license plate number is also one of the plates used in the TV show. We're that kind of nerdy.
|
The team isn't complete without their Van. Yes, they all fit inside. |
|
The van wouldn't be complete without a box full of guns! |
