Are you going after the RIOT characters now?

Absolutely. I have Savitar, Beta Man and the Shock Trooper done already. Still lots of work to do on the rest of them.

Shock Trooper
RIOT Soldier

The Shock Trooper is the RIOT version of the Cobra soldier, the nameless legions of ne'er-do-wells who provide cannot fodder for the Joes. I used a metallic paint for the uniform to tie the figure to its roots. Here's how the file card might read:

General Mamba is well-financed and his private are is made up of mercenaries from all parts of the world, seeking power and money. The nameless legions of RIOT are skilled in the use of explosives and all NATO and Warsaw Pact small arms, but primarily use the AK-47 assault rifle.

“The RIOT shock troopers are whipped into a fanatical frenzy by General Mamba, and they are extremely dangerous and absolutely loyal to their leader...at least, until things start to go badly, of course.”

Head - fodder
Arms - Hardball
Torso – Cobra Officer
Waist – Frostbite
Upper legs – Snow Job
Lower legs – Armadillo

Rifle – Russian Soldier (Kingdom of the Crystal Skull)

Beta Man
RIOT Arsonist
Good-guy groups are useless without some bad guys to fight. GI Joe has Cobra, and Eagle Force has RIOT, the Roving International Organization of Tyranny, which makes me glad that Hasbro didn't try to come up with a backronym for Cobra (the Callous Organization of Bullies, Ruffians and Anarchists?) At any rate, Beta Man is a guy who would fit right in with some off the less refined Cobra operators, what with his penchant for setting things on fire and all. I gave him a fire-retardant silver vest to break up the all-red look of the original.

Head – Salvo
Arms – Tripwire
Torso – Shockwave
Waist, legs – Barbecue

Flamethrower, backpack, hose – Dragonsky v2
Mask - Bullhorn

Savitar
RIOT Assassin

GI Joe has Cobra, and Eagle Force has RIOT, the Roving International Organization of Tyranny, which makes me glad that Hasbro didn't try to come up with a backronym for Cobra (the Callous Organization of Bullies, Ruffians and Anarchists?) At any rate, before Storm Shadow there was Savitar, RIOT's resident ninja assassin. He was particularly awesome because he came with both a sword and an MP5. Storm Shadow v2 forms the basis for this figure, which I think turned out really well. He gives ole Stormy a run for his money in the ninja awesomeness category.

Head, waist, legs – Storm Shadow v2
Arms – Low-Light v5
Torso – Hardball

Submachine gun – Action Force
Sword and scabbard – Scarlett v4

I have General Mamba partly pieced together, but don't have anything for Baron Von Chill or Nemesis. Haven't figured out how to do them yet. So it'll be a while before the set is complete.
