Safety is definitely a huge factor if you are planning on getting a motorcycle. Well, considering there is a huge amount of customization going on for motorcycles, why not put your personal touch on your helmet as well. Especially if its something bad ass like an Iron Man custom paint job. Safety is definitely key, but you shouldn’t have to give up style. Just don’t be a douche and put some lame ass fluorescent colored plastic mohawk on your helmet. Thats just tasteless and… well I guess douchey.

If you are not aware of what a “figma” action figure is, figma is a multi-articulate and customizable action figure created by figure designer/manufacturer Max Factory. figma usually features bishoujo-type characters and comes with an array of weapons, interchangeable faces, limbs, hands, and more. figma was Max Factory’s answer to the growing popularity of articulate figures in Japan. These little action figures have a huge fan base and many of these avid collectors design and customize their own figma-style action figures of their favorite characters. This time around one of these figma enthusiasts did an AMAZING custom job of the cute Yuffie Kisaragi from Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII. This unknown “customizer” took apart a factory produced Vocaloid Kagamine Rin figma action figure and retooled and sculpted his way to create this brilliant rendition of Yuffie. Considering how much I like Square Enix’s Yuffie Game Edition Play Arts action figure, I can’t help but LOVE the adorable nature of this customized figma. Whoever you are that made this, I salute you! (Once I find out who made this custom figma, I will update this post XD)

Hit the jump and get ready to drool, followed by tears cause ya can’t buy this sucker.

Dennis “D-Man” Vazquez of Pit Stop Motorsports designed and fabricated a custom Predator motorcycle. Built off a 2007 Suzuki Hayabusa, this crotch rocket got all the fixin’s to become an ultimate Predator bike. Every inch of this bike screams Predator as D-Man puts some amazing custom fabrications on the Hayabusa such as a un-masked Predator’s face for the fairing, custom detailed gas tank, and more. Nothing was left out of this amazing bike. The Predator’s signature weapons such as the plasma caster (shoulder cannon), medikit, and shuriken were incorporated into this bike. It even has Predator’s trophies of one of his prized kills on the side of the fairing. The bloody skull is still attached to its spinal cord and smothered in brain matter and flesh. The Predator motorbike is definitely amazing and gruesome. Great job to the D-Man and the Pit Stop Motorsports team.

I always love it when LEGO fans makes scenes from movies and comics. Usually, you see a ton of custom LEGO Star Wars or Star Trek scenes, but Brickshelf (a custom LEGO gallery/website) member, “rebelrock” decided to take it back to 1965 and created a scene from Frank Herbert’s Dune.

The design is a bit plain, but it works brilliantly. “Rebelrock” features 3 unsuspected travelers in the desert facing the wrath of Shai-Hulud, or commonly known as “the sandworm”. Hit the jump to check out more photos of “rebelrock”’s work!

Good news guys and gals! You don’t have to be a billionaire like Bruce Wayne to own the “Batmobile” from ‘The Dark Knight’ (kinda). Custom fabricator, “T-Man” has designed and fabricated a custom Batmobile Tumbler Go-Kart!

Of course, you won’t be leaping rooftops or outrunning the local law enforcement, but it can help you:

  • Chase down the neighbor’s cat that has been leaving nice little surprises on your yard.
  • Deliver newspapers in style.
  • Race against “Power Wheels” drivers for pink slips.
  • Impress the “girl next door” by writing her name in the streets while doing a burnout.
  • Get killed by taking a wrong turn into a freeway.

Either way, you’re definitely going to look bitchin’ doing it. Hit the jump to see it in action!
