The bug doesn&#8217;t bite here as often as it does for some of the web&#8217;s premiere customizers, but a custom will probably pop up now and again so it&#8217;s best to have one show up out of the gate. <\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s entry into the Intermittent Customs is a fan creation for Masters of the Universe: <strong>Zadoc the Cosmic Tyrant<\/strong>.  <!--more--><\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.itsalltrue.net\/customs\/images\/zadoc4.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"zadoc\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>One of the interesting things about MOTU that makes it different from most other properties is the disparity between it&#8217;s different canons. You have the fans that swear by the mini-comics, by the comic book, or by the cartoon. You have other fans who prefer 200x to the 80s versions altogether. All of this openness gives fans a lot of room to add to their own personal mythology to Masters of the Universe. I had two Zodac&#8217;s as a kid, the Black Armor from the Weapon&#8217;s pack, and the uncertainty if Zodac was good or evil master. A sharpie to the second Zodac&#8217;s helped fix all that and created his evil counterpart Zadoc. <\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.itsalltrue.net\/customs\/images\/zadoc6.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"zadoc\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\n<\/center><br \/>\nI made another version of Zadoc in 200x, so it seemed natural to bring Zadoc into my Classics Display. I&#8217;ve upgraded my custom skills past sharpie level though. Zadoc is painted with black acrylics this time around and his symbol changed to red for a little more evil of a look. And then there&#8217;s the Master Blade of Empyrean&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.itsalltrue.net\/customs\/images\/twozs.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"zadoc\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>The swords are the product of a far greater customizer than myself, AFI&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.actionfigureinsider.com\/blog\/spymagician\/motuc-zodac-crafting-the-master-blade-of-the-empyrean\/\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">Spymagician<\/a>. He designed, sculpted, and casts the Master Blades himself. I was lucky enough to see his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.actionfigureinsider.com\/blog\/spymagician\/motuc-zodac-crafting-the-master-blade-of-the-empyrean\/\" style=\"color:#ff0000\">blog<\/a> post and pick up two swords from him back in early June. The swords are high quality for a custom sculpt, and of course, look great with the figures. Check out his blog for some pictures of other versions of the sword. So my hat&#8217;s off to Spymagician who not only created the awesome swords, but also has helped me with some invaluable advice for my own casting. Spy, if you&#8217;re reading, thanks! <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it for the blog&#8217;s first custom. Even though I said they may be far and few between, we&#8217;ll have two more coming up in the next couple weeks! <\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.itsalltrue.net\/customs\/images\/zodac8.jpg?w=640\" alt=\"zadoc\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"newsimages\/spacer.png\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_options":[]},"categories":[48,7],"tags":[2573,20,2558,2560,68,67],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pObc6-1D","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2380,"url":"http:\/\/www.itsalltrue.net\/?p=2380","url_meta":{"origin":101,"position":0},"title":"It&#8217;sAllTrue.Net Custom: DC Classics Super Powers Mr. Freeze","date":"November 2, 2009","format":false,"excerpt":"Today, I thought I would take the opportunity to show off one of my DC Classics customs: Mr. Freeze in Super Powers Colors.
