I'm trying to figure out what could be considered the worst combination of ugly ARAH parts. In the end I want to compose a figure of those parts and challenge myself to customize and paint it to make it look more acceptable, sometime in this new year. (Perhaps more customizers want to join me in this challenge, then we could make it a community project.)
I already made a list myself of parts which I think aren't favorite of most collectors. The parts required to come from "regular" figures, so no Cobra La, Star Brigade aliens or Street Fighter. They also had to be easily available or kinda cheap, I don't want to buy the expensive Cobra Air Devil and take it apart for this. Some obvious parts are left out, because I already have a WIP laying around including that part (Annihilator head and Track Viper for example).

You can vote on three options.
This poll is about torso sculpts only.

:shifty: I like all of these. Blast Off's might be the toughest to use on a custom just because of having to justify the No. 2 on it, but they all have a lot of character to them as well as nicely sculpted details.

I voted Blastoff for that reason-it's a good torso otherwise, but that big #2 ruins it.

Also voted Maverick....it was too space man and not enough "space pilot"

I didn't realize how much I dislike the 92 Destro until these polls, but you learn something every day. Muskrat 93 and Blast-Off make the cut, too. Muskrat's torso isn't so much ugly to me as it is insanely proportioned: those shoulders are ridiculous. Blast-Off has the misfortune of being a generally ugly figure, and while his sculpt isn't too bad, that color scheme doesn't do him any favors. If Flak-Viper appeared on the list, he'd be my #1 pick.
