MACH-V is the 5th MACH suit of Abner Jenkins, the pilot of that armor. In a previous life, he was the villain known as Beetle (the minifigure on the left). Then he switched his identity to MACH and became a superhero as part of the Thunderbolts.
There are a number of MACH suits already and they mostly look good. I would even argue that MACH-V is the worst only because it's the simplest of the suits. Since it was so simple though, it was easier to make a MOC/figbash out of it.
Parts used:
Helmet - Jango Fett (XP315)
Armor - Generic (but can be found with Armored Batman)
Others - Generic
The helmet had blue lines near the visors that I erased with a pencil eraser. Unfortunately, I couldn't reach the inner portions so you'll still see some blue prints inside the visor.
I think the torso and arms I specifically used were from a Black Lantern Shazam. I'm not sure where I got the legs though, sorry.
The wings are attached to a Lego stick; the middle of the stick is attached to the armor while the top and bottom parts of the stick have the wings attached to them.
I also covered the cheek parts of the helmet with some silver marker just so they're not as dark as they came out of the pack.
I would've preferred using the other Mandalorian helmets cause they have wider visors like what MACH-V has, but they were printed in black. At least with his helmet mold, using an orange head will make it look like he has an orange visor.

Again, he's got a number of suits already, but this specific MOC/Figbash is based on MACH-V same as the picture above.
