Purist entry for the February Figbarf 2025:

Angelo DeAngelo
wielding his legendary guitar Stratokastrator



Tome of Nuke 6: 8-13
"And there were in the same country Studlanders abiding in the field, keeping watch over their fleebnork repellant by night. And, lo, a minifig called Angelo DeAngelo came upon them, and a glorious light shone about them: and they were sore afraid. And DeAngelo said unto them, Fear: for, behold, I bring you grave tidings, which shall be to all inhabitants of the brikverse. For unto you is brought this day your Annihilator, which is the Deadly Spaceman. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the spaceman wielding an OTC wrapped in flames, burning with anger. And suddenly there was with DeAngelo a multitude of heavy metal tunes, and he sang,

O come, all ye fearful, trembling and broken,
O come ye, O come ye to DSM.
O come and behold him, bringer of ruin and fire.

O come, let us abhor him,
O come, let us deplore him,
O come, let us evade him—Deadly Spaceman reigns!"

Weird point to fixate on but that gun piece as a guitar neck is really cool

Stratokastrator is about as good as it gets. NPU for the singing face.

STORY: 8/10
Charming story, fits in with established DSM lore and the ongoing studlander shenanigans.

PHOTOGRAPHY: 8/10
This could honestly be an album cover.

THEMATIC POTENTIAL: 10/10
Legendary Character design. I expect nothing less from you Bert. I really would love to see him in a battle or a soap.

I don't know how you decided to combine angels and DSMs but it's delightfully silly. It feels almost like a bizarro version of 40k space marines. Like you used the same ingredients but followed a different recipe.
