Finally got the parts to continue my Slaughter's Marauders update for Outback. I started with the 25th Bazooka to get that big bulky build. Swapped the hands with Crossbones and shortened the arms just a bit. Legs came from movie Heavy Duty with Crossbones feet just to change things up. Boot knife is Marauder with a green stuff strap and turned the v neck jersey into a tshirt as well. The head is Ragin Spoon. The backpack is from GI Joe with Marauder rigging for straps.
For paint, I didn't steer too much from the original look. The Survival tshirt is too iconic not to include and I updated the camo pants to match my Marauders team.
I really dig the geared up look for Outback and this is how he'll be displayed. I gave him the tan backpack and added a knife and his trademark flashlight to the straps.
For me, Outback is part of Slaughter's Marauders and acts as the team's scout and advance recon. He can be dropped behind enemy lines and survive for weeks on his own, reading the enemy movements. When the others arrive, they have the most up to date Intel possible.
This is my 3rd attempt at the character and while I was happy with the 2nd version, he was undersized when I updated those around him.
