I also have Red shadows coming but these were donw so figured I would start here.

Red Laser is just an Star Wars Black series figure with his skirt removed and a little black and white paint added

Lots of Corps figures flating around my house right now and with the skull on their chest they felt like a pervect fit into the Red Shadows world. Shock Shadows use the Ogre body (no paint needed) with the gray reaper (stupid static figure) head cut off and a screw put in the bottom to make the swivel neck and the hood painted red.

I like the look of those Shock Shadows. The Ogre body was always decent, but the headsculpt they saddled it with was just terrible.

Thanks. I hated the head but also have never really liked the neck thing either.The only real purpose I can see for that neck wold be a bomb suit mabyt. But with this hooded head sculpt it seems to work. The color and paint on the figure was just too easy to pass up.

they look great! I always saw the neck thing as arctic gear, like a super turtle neck.

I have more corps to photo soon :)

I really believe that the original figure was a bomb disposal figure.

the ogre figure even has the face shield but it is lifted so you can see his face with a similar helmet to this suit.

The Shock Shadows are a great idea. Great use for those Corps figures.

Snoke's Guards (not sure what the correct name is) didn't look good for Star Wars. But here, you've taken that design and altered it- and it works perfectly!

Those Shock Shadows are impressive. Turning that SW figure into a Red Laser is inspired, and looks good.
