The DTC Steel Brigade pack was released shortly after I rediscovered collecting Joes as an adult. Although I was marginally aware of the original ARAH Steel Brigade figure, it came out in 1987 just as I was outgrowing Joes, so the DTC pack was my first real contact with the Steel Brigade. I fell in love with the concept right away and ended up buying 6 packs to build a small army.

These three were actually assembled and ready to be painted a year ago for New Sculpt I. However, we had so many figures for that project at that time that I put them aside. To differentiate Rook and Checkpoint, I gave them different builds. I always thought the originals looked too much alike.
