Mystery Minifigure

[V22driver]

Got this figure in a bulk lot.  No fakes included in the lot and was able to identify everything else.  Not sure if all three pieces go together but I cannot find any of them on bricklink or brick owl.  All three pieces have the Lego brand printed on them so I'm under the assumption they are real.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Thanks in advance

Any helmets or other headgear look like it should go on there?

I was able to identify everything else.  Best guess based off the headgear that was left over after I finished putting everything else together was a standard helmet with a black visor but that is based purely off the color scheme.

Have not been able to find a head (with stubble), a torso (with red) or a hips and legs part (with belt and pockets) like the one you show. I’m thinking this is a custom minifig.

The legs look like they match these: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=970c00pb0143 but the belt/hips are different.  I don't see any other fig with those same legs.  Very likely a custom.

Is it usual for custom figures to have the "lego" brand printed on them.  This is the first time I have run into this.

Thanks for your replies!!

What did the leftover helmets look like? If it is a custom then for some reason I think it would resemble Judge Dredd with the right helmet. I'm probably way off, but that's the first thing that came to my mind.

Yes, because most of the minifig makers take standard lego minifigs (without print, or they remove the print themselves) and then reprint the minifigs with their designs.

My kids are currently in the process of 'remixing' all of their minifig parts... legs/hips/torso/arms/hands all come off and then are re-assembled to make new characters.  So it's possible that the parts are original lego, but it was remixed with other figures.  Also possible that the previous owner picked up or swapped out parts in a minifig swap---another thing my kids are into... got us into the lego store just yesterday for more 'parts'.

The hips strike me as either batman or star wars, but I couldn't find them on a quick search.

I showed my eldest---the minifig expert---the pic, and he didn't recognize it either.... 'custom dare-devil' was his best guess.

Awesome information.  Thank you all for the replies.  Im just glad I wasn't loosing my mind in not being able to find it.  I must have looked half a dozen times for each piece.

Can use goatleg.com to look up minifigures. Nothing came up with black torso/arms/gloves so someone mixed and matched or it’s a custom
