Eagle was the Action Force SAS Squad Leader, one of the early Palitoy low POA figures. Here I've switched him over to ARAH format. The hood is pulled down and the gas mask is in a ready position at his shoulder.

Palitoy decked him out with a Thompson submachine gun. I had one, but it was a Fortnite, which was too big and detailed to look right against these particular ARAH parts. So I switched over to another WW2 era weapon, the M2, this one from Remco's Sgt. Rock line.

Nice. Love the added gas mask on the torso.

Thanks. I wanted to keep it in some manner, but also expose the face/head. The original plan was to use a Greedo face, with the snout replaced, but it didn't look right. Had to sculpt the upper half of the mask over Greedo.

I think it’s a brilliant idea to use a Greedo head for a mask. How do you usually attach your molded accessories like these- super glue?

Thanks. Yes, here it's just a dab of super glue.
