Head: 50th Beachhead
Everything else: 25th Comic Pack Beachhead

In the 1990's Funskool, an Indian company, licensed GI Joe from Hasbro. Using official molds, Funskool released their own ''GI Joe International Heroes'' over the course of a decade and a half.

I tackled this project for several reasons. First, I found myself wanting to add some of these characters and wacky colored figures to my collection. It started with just a few figures but, after doing some online research, I realized that there were several more interesting figures in the line. As the project grew, I was rummaging through my fodder bins and I decided to use up as much of my older 25th parts as I could. So, this project became a big ''Spare Parts Brigade''.

This version of Beachhead is one of the few Funskool figures that I actually had. I purchased him around 2005 when I was just getting back into Joes as an adult. I never had Beachhead as a kid, but always liked his character in the Sunbow series, so I picked him up for cheap. He stood in my collection for a while and then was replaced with the VvV Night Force version. For my homage, I used the same bright green as ''Emerald Zap''
