Crappy cell pic for now, just gotta put it together/probably grab a different body. This one is clocking in at 20-25 bucks.
Mr. McClane is going to be in at around 70-80, but he's worth it. Paints almost done, pics soon.

Got any links to the robe shorts etc and prices?
would these count?
these were anywhere from 10-15 bucks........and with any additional pouches and bits maybe another $6................nice cheap & fun to do.
next one is a snowtrooper......
the best i can guess would be around $70 (putting a $30 value on the marmit body i used).
conan..........
body was a jaxx stone cold steve austin i found at a kb years ago for $10...........the head was about $20? from storerooms (probably a recast sideshow....), the marto sword was the most expensive at about $45 back when........the rest is just scrap stuff i had maybe value it at $5-7????
the movie heavy metal b-17 airman...........
$30 marmit body.......$2 skull (was a keychain), $10 jacket, $5 pants, $5 boots, $8 life vest, $5 headset, $7 parachute, scavenged the hands from a plastic halloween skeleton......$1 maybe?
one big reason i got into customizing was i just couldn't see paying those hot toys prices for stuff (that's totally out the window now..) & because some of the stuff i did didn't exist. but mainly for the fun & challenge of it. i have lots more like zombies, more upgraded hasbro star wars stuff, and a few odd pieces i came up with so these are just a few.
Good price
I have that head aswell and alternate it with another headplay one I'm still working on.
This figure cost around the 100 dollar mark aswell
Head 20 pounds
vest 5 pounds
guns another say 20 pounds
pants 5 pounds
body 24 pounds
walkie watch and stand say another 10 pounds so a bit over
This looks your best! and for roughly $100. 
Cheers mate.
Lots of willis sculpts but still like this one
Wow Mando... unrecognizable change to the sweater. I'm strongly considering tackling Freddy now
Now I don't know if this is cheating or not... but here's "technically" an under $100 custom. However, it was done through strategic buying and selling.
Costs and Recipe
$0 MMS117 Body- taken from parted out figure (made more than I paid)
$0 DX10 Head-taken from parted out figure (made more than I paid)
$150 HT Dutch Ex
-$230 Sold Dutch Ex. Headphones ($50), Body ($100) and Head ($80)
-$80 Total
So in the end I made $80 on this figure
would these count?
these were anywhere from 10-15 bucks........and with any additional pouches and bits maybe another $6.........
Thanks I made some of the pouches and bought a few ww2 pouches from toy anxiety. I think I took some of the bandoleers that came with the jawa and separated them and put on a new strap. Made a few weapons gizmos and weathered the ones that came with it.
