While I've never been a collector of Action Figures (or "dolls" as my wife calls them), I continue to marvel at people who create custom figures based on comics characters. I remember artist Darick Robertson showing me an amazing version of The Comedian from Watchmen - a character everyone is going to know much better when Zak Snyder's film comes out

Today on BoingBoing, I came across this excellent custom set. Taking as his inspiration the victorian-era world from the Batman graphic novel, Gotham by Gaslight (a great read if you haven't picked it up), Sillof has created the entire Justice League of America, steampunk style. The thing to note here is that all the figures are not only fantastic builds, but spring completely from his own imagination, applying the Gotham by Gaslight aesthetic to the regular teamthat never actually appeared in the story. Amazing.
