really liking the burst background! ruckus and shockblast are instant recog of their respective inspired selves, look great too!

_________________

the background is from toyhax/reprolabels/cobrastickers the medium one on it's side.

Col. Courage is funnier if you imagine using Terry Crews from Brooklyn 9 9 as the inspiration

Crossfire/dinohunter lowlight is also my version of movie Duke, him paired with Punchline/TigerForce Ripcord/renegadesRip/MovieRip

_________________

Col. Courage

based on 93 battle corps col courage and inspired from Terry Crew's character on Brooklyn Nine nine

body - flint, sculpted on collar and tie
head wwe - IDK
holster and gun - lt stone

Towline - DEF Troller Helmsman

Coast Guard - Combat Helm and Wave Cutter Pilot

a replacement for '93 battle corps Cutter and a salvage job

I had a split and mauled lt. stone upper torso, a snake eyes v1 mid section and a shattered stormshadow lower

I rebuilt them into on figure, added lt. stone's holsters, a duke v1 vest and arctic duke lower legs, epoxy sculpted the missing portions of the crotch and added glasses and mustache for this Cutter clone

Towline is the Driver of the amphibious vehicle called the WaveCutter - a cargo carrier, coastal defender, bay troller, and all terrain troop courier.
Towline is known for loosing hats and complaining from that moment on until they return to base. In many ways it's a luck thing, once he looses his hat, you know something has gone sideways. It's his "I gotta bad feeling about this." Unlike Cutter or StrikeZone Towline is not a big fan of Baseball he often gets irritated by people confusing the three of them just for the mustaches, and being CoastGuard... "not every Army guy is Duke y'know?!"

WaveCutter - based loosely off Sharc 9000 using Paw Patrol vehicle

_________________

I dremelled out the seat for Towline to stand in the spot, at first I was going to happy meal this and just add his torso to the seat and have him as a fixed pilot.

I opted for not painting it since I have had issues with even stripping the markings from the hull, so I ordered a sharc 9000 decal set from toy hax and worked around it.

I keep looking at this vehicle in the stores, wondering if the two side pieces can be cut and then widened to make a LST type vehicle for the JOEs.

93 Muskrat - M.A.S.K. Agent Dusty Hayes

head - longrange
upper torso - salvaged gung ho with back of lt stone disguise vest
lower torso salvaged - para trooper duke
both had been sawed in half no peg, I fashioned a new joint from a missile in the existing cut off pegs
the right shoulder had also been sliced open and dremelled out, I used another missile and sauder iron to make a new pegpost and smooth out the plastic
webgear - para duke
visor - hitech
mask - Snake Eyes v1 breather mask with a shoulder pad from samurai snake eyes

I noted the similarity in their color schemes and a dive suit makes sense for "The Gator" secondary mode from MASK

now with this one I was concerned about Jumping the shark theme-wise...

this is another salvage operation

I haven't made the snake part green because I only have the one.

Who ever had the heavy duty before has cut off the neck and a large portion of the back as well as saw him in half
I made an enclosure for the snake part to slip into using the back half a gung ho vest
The lower half is the legs and waist from a D.C. atom smasher baf i got at a comicshop on thursday.
I made the connector using a drywall screw sheath and hollowing out the existing waist joint
The waist gap was bothering me so I tracked down the collar from adventure team storm shadow's tiger to make the belt and cover the gap.


I will be pairing Rasp with the T-Rex that was chasing down my Dino Hunters maybe a 1/6th saddle
