There were so many Iconic Joes, not just the first couple of years, but for a good 6-8 years of the original run. It was interesting that some of the longest lasting characters weren't used that frequently either.
I remember Scrap-Iron was another one of those figures that I anxiously waited for Hasbro to redo. I loved the original 25th figure they came out with but was disappointed that they never released the one that used most of 25th Airborne's parts.
I decided to make my own trying to bring it even closer to the original look then that unreleased figure. I went for different boots and also wanted to sculpt on the harness the original figure and cartoon version had.
Lastly since his vest stood out so much I cut away a lot of it and then glued it together so that the figure could still move but the vest was a bit closer to the side.
