Henry Peter Gyrich is Pete Coulson's official successor as liaison between the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Avengers; and the first to be given official title as US Government liaison to the Avengers by the National Security Agency and its Council. With his status, Gyrich is one of only two people (the other being the President of the United States) who can affect the Avengers' operations in many significant (and by their words - difficult) ways. During his tenure, Gyrich has revoked the Avengers' priority status after taking issue with a number of members' actions and statements against his authority. The Avengers have to accept Gyrich's "suggestions" or have their Quinjets and other sensitive equipment seized.

-Gyrich is a bash of a longsleeved button-up MTF torso with a Tshirt torso. The easy part was swapping the longsleeve arms in, the tough part was cutting/pasting the collared neck over to the Tshirt collar; which now hopefully looks like Gyrich's signature sweater vest.

Did you do a full neck replacement with him or just the collar itself?

The whole assembly. The buttonup shirt was completely destroyed.

Can't deny the results, shame it sacrifices a full torso for the collar, but if it works it works.

I'm not familiar with the character, but I love the work.

Apologies, I forget not everyone is a crusty old bastard like myself. Gyrich was one of the early government/Avengers liaisons, making his fame as a character in the 80s when he took over what the team saw as internal decisions, like roster membership. He was a great thorn in their side for a while, the perfect needle-dick government drone nobody likes:

man, Byrne was awesome. I really liked his Avengers (tho not as much as Alpha Flight)

heard he was a dickfer in real life.

I take back what I said about Gyrich custom being too badass. You really nailed it.

Now I want one.

Thank you again, gents. Please feel free to copy the recipe, as always.

It's from the mini-statue line's Visitor figure, iirc. There were two. The gear from those figures is all 18th, I've found.
